Please provide just one link where a wet road has been successfully sued. Not the authority responsible for the road but the road itself - just to prove your comments has any basis of fact.

TheHangingJudge Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I was stopped at a set of lights yesterday and the 18 wheeler next to me had bald Tyres and I mean slicks across the rear axle in the UK you get three points on your license per tyre therefore he would have probably received a ban. Just a useless comparison I know but where does one start to put things on a proper footing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grusa Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 On 5/12/2019 at 10:04 AM, spidermike007 said: Always about saving face. Face is no doubt, the greatest form of weakness, a human can engage in. Many will say it is societal, cultural, etc. No matter. It is the absolute and complete lack of the ability to introspect, and look within for the source of any problem, shortcoming, conflict, or issue. It is the polar opposite of spirituality, and therefore an absolute scourge on Buddha, and all of the precepts he taught. By practicing face, you are denying your spiritual heritage. You are refusing to man up. To take responsibility for your actions. If a man or a woman cannot, and will not take responsibility for their actions, the problems they create, the mistakes they make, and the issues they involve themselves in, what are they? Are they still an adult? Are they a complete individual, if they allow themselves to be limited by such infinitely small social convention? Who cares what people think of you? For those of us with high self esteem, it just does not matter. Sure, close friends and family. But strangers on the street? Who gives a rat's butt about this? It means nothing what they think, nor what they say about you. They count for nothing. They are just people, and people you do not know, nor will ever see again. Face is rife with self doubt, and by subscribing to this weakness, and man or woman is made a far lesser person. For those of us with high self esteem, we know who we are. What others think, what society thinks, what a guy or gal thinks, means less than zero. Real men or women, simply own a situation, and take responsibility for their errors or mistakes. Small men, social deviants, or emotional adolescents deflect, obfuscate, attempt to confuse, and do everything in their power to deny that they made a mistake, or that they are responsible in any way, or on any level. They make up narratives about fake news, or alternative facts. Anything to avoid looking within, for the source of the problem. Anything. Post of the week, if not the year.
