Welcome to the Accrington Grand Prix
 
Is there going to be anything done about the number of mainly pakistani males driving like Stirling moss around our town? Now im a big car nut and love the sound of all the Subaru Impreza's and Mitsubishi Evos but dont want to see them tear down my street at stupid speeds espacially when there are children playing on there. Dont think im having a pop at people of other colours (im not a racist at all) but it is mainly them who drive such cars.

Why don't you pick up the phone and report some registration numbers to the Police?

lol i find it ironic that the advert under his complaint is for mitsubishi cars lol

now to stay on topic

nothing will be done , taxis are supposed to have 3 mot's a year i think it is and i have lost count of teh taxis i have seem with brake lights out , bits hanging off them and headlights not working etc

round where i used to live we had the same problem and teh added bonus that they were also selling drugs and using outside my house as teh drop off point and still the police didnt want to know

dont waste your time with the police just weld a few nails together and scatter appropiatly along teh road :D

How about speed bumps? Are those allowed over there?

Ormerod St has speed bumps. The 'zoom up as fast as you can' brigade seem to treat them like a fairground ride put there for their added pleasure. :rolleyes:

They have some effect, it depends on what you drive. I hardly notice them. In fact I over took, carefully of course, a car on a speed bump the other day. He had fitted a front skirt so low he crawled over them hoping the skirt would not be ripped off. So you can waste a Mitsi Evo in an old diesel :D

If you are not racist then why did you mention the nationality. No need other than to point the finger at pakistani people. You are racist you just don't realise it.

All he was doing was pointing out who the majority of the culprits were. Would I therefore be considered racist in your opinion if I thought I had too many Chinese takeways near me?

Rubbish, he was just describing the offenders. Most of the cars mentioned won't be properly insured as they won't report the car modifications so the Police can do them for no insurance.

Re: Welcome to the Accrington Grand Prix
 
I agree they are probabley not insured. Why does being a pakistani matter?

I have read many conversations on here over the last couple of weeks. about MPs, Binmen, Nurses, Schoolteachers and a lot of others. Not one of them mention that nearly all the MPs are white or mention that the binmen are white or mention the nationality at all.

But when it comes to crime it has to be mentioned that they are pakistani.

Argue the point all you want. You know deep down I am right.

Re: Welcome to the Accrington Grand Prix
 
I haven't a clue what the ethnic origin of my binmen is. I never see them.
