Duke of Edinburgh’s Road Accident

[SirGawain]

AIBU to ask why on earth is the Duke of Edinburgh driving at the age of 97.

Once again, where have I defended him?

Yes, some light relief from the royal defence league.

love it!

I’m not deaf.

speed limits 60 there.

Oh god, not still doing this bashing of anyone who speaks sense are we? How is this OK you lot?

You are so wrong, the assumptions, houndin and harassing posters hat don't agree with your view speculation not a discussion.

That's your opinion not everyone's! It's called debate? But it's ok for people who believe the same you do to bash others?

Get a grip!

I think we all know that there is a difference between what's appropriate when sitting on a jury and what's appropriate when chatting on an internet forum

@Wordthe not according to @Bluelady we don't!

You don't have to defend yourself against these baseless allegations Bluelady, I don't know what their deal is but, really the thread title needs to be changed to devotees of royal bashing and I'm guessing anyo e who's disagrees must be admirers of the royals and royalists because there are two pole opposites aren't there, nothing exists in the middle.

@Smotheroffive another thread title change..... I can't keep up!

@Smotheroffive I'm not sure you're please @Bluelady because she's saying she's not defend HRH, but you're saying she's a royal devotee ...... so agreeing that the people challenging her are correct?

Oh whats that you say Charlie97 more sarcasm?...

very echoey in here....

@Smotheroffive indeed it is @Smotheroffive, indeed it is!

What car was he driving?

Seriously now, stop sending me emails, and leave me out of your discussions

That's a simple straightforward request, it doesn't require an answer, or contradicting, just stop.

Oooh ! Fight! Lets have a civil war re enactment then?.

Who wants to be king Charles and who be Ollie Cromwell bags I be
Tho. Fairfax please:)

what happened to innocent until proven guilty? Two cars in this accident, an accident on a road where the police wanted the sped limit reduced and speed cameras installed. That will finally happen now. The road has blind corners, a lot of bends and there have been 5 deaths in 6 years.

But apparently its Ok to jump to assumptions here.

@alreadytaken, that will get you nowhere here. You'll be accused of being a Royal fan girl or defending him any time now.

I want a biscuit.

You've been pretty forward in accusing the woman with the broken wrist of lying bluelady. Is she also innocent until proven guilty, or just him?

She did lie. She said it was overcast. Every single other witness said the low sun dazzled them. Next?

It’s irrelevant whether it was overcast or low sun, there was an accident and someone was injured. It won’t go to court - the RF will settle out of court.

The relevance is that the passenger lied about it on national TV. I was responding to the post immediately before mine.

We don’t know that she lied. We weren’t in the cars at that time. The police and the Courts, if necessary will decide the rights and wrongs although I feel sorry for any one with injuries from a car accident you didn’t cause. I broke my wrist about 10 years ago and so many day to day activities were difficult and painful.

Any incident, people have different recollections. Lots of research to show this. To say that someone lied because they have a different recollection is very unfair.

She didn't have a different recollection. She lied. Her body language quite clearly showed she was lying.
