UK, Ireland / Are Polish people moving back home from the UK? [68]


Hard to say. Some leave when pound dive more to 1:4, some when they will fed up with low housing standards, dangerous streets, rain and mould. Many people have no choice. They sold their properties in Poland. Kids are in school. They know only English language and they are too old to learn another one. Of course it is much better to work in Germany because of distance, LHD cars, driving on the right side but there is small problem. Germans as well as French don't want to speak English. Norway is a small country with small market and Netherlands is dominated by Polish employment agency gangs.


They understand it very clear but they have no choice.

smurf trust me :) (I wound't say that to not instruct readers) the fact you have MOT or not doesn't matter because fines are low. When you have play on steering wheel or suspension it is more inconvinient for driver than goodbye with amount of money for fix it. Scenario when the control arm breaks is very rare. Much more dangerous are worn tyres that policeman can spot with naked eye. But budget cuts for the police is another story.


gazetaolsztynska.pl ;) Each week you can see new cars on the roof driven by reckless ladies in their 40 or young wolves in powerfull BMW. Speed this is the cardinal sin.

News / 10 year prison sentence for Polish lorry driver who killed 4 people while driving and using his mobile phone [90]


There are many kinds of truth ;) but it is almost impossible to get service stamp when something is wrong with suspension, brakes or windscreen has cracks. but#2 it isn't smart to waste money for bribe when you can say to the police "I have forgotten to pass MOT" Do not fear of the police. Fear of insurance company ;)


but more accidends do people in newer cars who are richer, reckless and don't care if they have to buy another car.
