Prince Philip involved in car crash

If really that bad, one could ask one’s passenger to pop out of the car and talk you out.

This “sun” defence appears to have come rather conveniently from a lawyer who specialises in slipperiness.

I'm not suggesting it's any kind of defence. It shouldn't be at all. Just that we've all been there.
 
The other forgotten party in this is the protection officer who accompanied him. He had no choice about getting in to the car. It would be more than his job was worth, to question Sir on his driving capabilities. Also I can’t believe there are certain posters on here happy to see a near 98 year old continue to drive despite his well documented ailments. It’s not about him anymore, it’s about the safety of the public at large. If he feels he has to get behind a wheel to prove something, there are enough private estates where the only persons at risk are the peasants who work on them, and,his own extended family.

I completely agree. What a selfish ****. He drove not because he needed to (to get to the shops, for example) but because he wanted to. At that age. Turning on to a 60 mph road. Utter, selfish madness.
