Have you ever noticed that at zebra crossings, chavy mothers walk up to it and stop with the push chair sticking out into the road?

Same thing happens between parked cars : the pram always gets pushed out first.

When I log out of internet banking it now asks for confirmation, and yet if I turn my back for just a few seconds it kicks me out anyway.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

But they shouldn't, if it's a left turn.

They shouldn't apply to drivers if it's a left turn, but unfortunately we don't live in a common sense world.

Given how many traffic lights are also pedestrian crossings, that's just asking for it.

Like pedestrians actually use crossings properly anyway (see other thread).

Dear Microsoft.
When I save a webpage, then open it in Word to edit, I don't expect Word to change the location (ie address) of the pictures so that when I save and upload the changes, the pictures don't work anymore.

Might download Seamonkey to fix that.

All because of some pieces of paper! (A4 vs US Letter size)
