Although in this case I'd weigh the fucker in and buy a BX... But I dont have kids and the such..

Although if I did have kids I'd have killed them by now, so I guess it would still be irrelevant!

well Bandit says his missus is a good driver but its the other silly fuckers on the road you have to allow for,

I never worried about taking the kids out in the BX though ,

[chin] mind you it was that or walk

True, you cant allow for every other twat on the highway, but you can give yourself the best chance possible.
Not harping on about being a professional driver (I dont get paid enough to be professional), but it does give you a better idea how to give yourself a space cushion, and makes you think about where you are on the road in relation to other arseholes.
But at the end of the day, people are only human and will always make mistakes, ergo, people will always crash.

It wouldn't concern me having kids in my car, BX's may be old and a bit tinny, but they are fairly strong.
Plus kids are bouncy!
