So the next crash by that logic will be in 2074, we will all be long dead and Phillip recovering from his 10th hip replacement will be injuring our grandchildren and coming away from the accident without a scratch. 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel bad about posting this now he's sent a letter of apology to the other driver.Maybe he's not that bad after all … Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Prince Phillip was really bothered about the impact the crash has had it wouldn’t of taken him so long to write a letter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fergie86 376 Posted February 9, 2019 Prince Philip to voluntarily hand in his driving license to the police, obviously good for fellow motorists as he is too old to drive, bad news for deathlisters as can’t kill himself in a car crash. Though on the other hand lack of independence could effect him 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arsewipe 202 Posted February 9, 2019 Of course absolutely nothing to do with the fact he would have been charged with careless driving otherwise. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's standard procedure I think. Twenty five or so years ago an 80 odd year old pulled out in front of me; I was later informed by the police she wouldn't be prosecuted because she had agreed to surrender her licence and wouldn't drive again.

It really makes you sick doesn’t it the way the Government, Authorities, Media etc are so far up the Royal families arse because they happened to be born into the right family. The Royal family are so overrated and hardly have a squeaky clean pass from there links with the Nazi party and other murky dealings. People say they are good for the country and bring in money through tourism as well as how they do so many Royal engagements but in reality all they have to do is turn up shake people’s hands and possibly make speech. The planning such as the red arrows shows, the dinning arrangements, the health and safety their travel etc is organised by staff who are on poor wages, often paid by us the tax payers like some of their previous weddings etc they really do spunge of the state at times. Yes they do some good with some of there schemes but with all the money they have surely that is the least they should do and the way celebrities etc fall over backwards to help them is annoying they get so many opportunities that the average person doesn’t get yet we are suppose to be grateful we breathe the same air as they do. The media also make such a fuss about Megan changing protocol because she opened her own car door the other week, why shouldn’t she, she is no better than the rest of us. The Protocol that has been In place for 100s of years is so out of date and not relevant to the world we live in today. Also the media thinks we want to know there every move, not everyone does they make my blood boil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
