  • DVDs in cars

    Can someone explain this.
    I buy the car, insure it, pay the road tax,fuel it.
    And I have to drive but everyone i the car except me gets a DVD player. Why cant I have a HUD (head up display) with Victorian Kitchen Garden playing on the windscreen.

    Because you're driving NOG And it doesn't always pay to be too competent Sometimes there's a case for acting daft and getting someone else to do it
    But sounds like a nice car

    From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

      Have you ever tried watching a DVD while the car's moving? Makes me travel sick & headachey from trying to make my eyes focus on something that is moving with the motion of the car. So mebbe you're not missing out really
      (Oh, and drivers do get their own in some cars, it's built into the sat nav screen, but only works when the car stops - Pa has one in his LandCruiser)

          I said to the bloke that if I dont get one no-one does. I am a bit of a git like that.

          If I am driving and the Shotgun falls asleep, i speed up then stamp on the brake to wake them.

            Someone my Dad used to work with always said he was "a Union man" in the car "One awake, all awake, no dozing while I drive"

              Good man...I fully agree with that.
              I stopped sleeping in veichles when I woke up once on the M4 and the driver was eating sweet n sour cicken and rice..with chop sticks. So at some point he must have come off the mway stopped for a take away and got back on with me asleep....

                I have been known to slam on brakes or turn faster if I have a 'ragdoll' in the passenger seat. My OH is terrible for leaning like a dog on corners, so I sometimes take the turn extra fast to exercise his back muscles, lol!

                On the DVD front, I remember exercising similar rights to NOG when buying a brand new Corsa. They offered a passenger airbag as an extra and I declined it, saying that I'd buy one if the passenger paid for it! Thankfully, they're more or less standard, now, to bypass tight gits like me!

                  whats a DVD in a car, driver visual??, is it car sales speak, like VGC, or ONO?

                  I'm always happy if my passengers fall asleep, that way they stop bending my ear, when I can't get up and walk away.
                  I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus.

                    We were being driven on dirt track roads in Antigua (most of the roads are like that there) and the driver put on a DVD for us to watch. Trouble is, he also had a screen and was watching the film with us. Every time it got to a "juicy" bit, he would slow down to watch it
