DVLA News

Post by PoloGTi »

Has anyone else seen the latest press release from the DVLA?

In order to assist other motorists in identifying potentially dangerous
drivers, it's now compulsory for anyone with a lower than average
driving ability to display a warning flag.

The flag (consisting of a red cross on a white background) will be
attached to the top of at least one door of their vehicle.

For drivers of exceptionally low ability, additional flags are required.

the worst one i saw:

horrible metallic dark amber coloured (think the awful olive colour the Punto launched with, but even more orangey and yuck) Yaris Verso - with red tape across the bonnet in a cross! No white background...... dude, what flag is that? The united republics of Moronatania?

:D
