It's not a big deal on the Prius as the problem only occurs when the ABS is active.

Well, this to me looks like the typical type of picture used to emphasise some aspect of global warming but, what is actually coming out of the chimney? If the "smoke" disappears into thin air shortly after leaving the chimney then it is not smoke but steam. Power station cooling towers are often used in this type of shot and they emit steam.

"Get a real Aussie legend to advertise Jetstar, like Rolf Harris, Shane Warne or Kevin Rudd!"
Or preferably Kevin Wilson!
Still can't believe that Becky arouses so much emotion amongst the posters here. She is making the most of what she has and very successfully too. I guess you are jealous of that.

One reliable way to assess people is by the names they choose for their children, the Palins and the Heenes being good examples.

Sad story indeed. If indeed it was a moped then it is unlikely to have had 2 seats. But, as has been said, not enough information to judge who was at fault or what exactly happened. Depending on the junction, a small bike should have been making a "Melbourne turn" perhaps?

Maybe an ideal punishment would be to turn the tables and let a horse have a go at him; that would bring tears to his eyes.

This is an outrage! British forces should be used only for the defence of the realm, not supporting a greedy and corrupt rat and his so-called government. How many more UK, US etc lives are going to be totally wasted supporting these heathens.

twoyen: I'm with you on this one but 4 hours may be pushing it a bit. Even one hour would help but ideally two. Sadly it will never happen, it's been tried before.

All very sad, in fact worse than sad. One thing which I don't understand: Why is it that we never hear anything from the Keeper of the Two Holy Mosques and the top Immams in Saudi Arabia denouncing this Muslim violence?

Exactly! This is all about compensation culture and greed, It's over, it was over more than 60 years ago. Only Korean and Chinese greed and inferiority complexes that are keeping this going.

So many people seem to be happy to take a day off with pay these days, no output but you still get paid. My usual 35 minute commute took 2 hours this morning but I made it to work and so did all my staff, some taking as long as 3 hours to get in but they made it.

This has happened to me a couple of times over the years with badly fitted or unsuitable floor mats, no big deal, reach down and move the mat. Plenty of things this unfortunate driver could have done instead of calling 911, switch the ignition off and brake, throw it into neutral etc.

Agree with the last comment from Sarge. I don't think Maria designs squat, just lends her name to the range.
