Life / Why oh Why do Poles drive so incredibly poorly [100]

It seems like a simple enough problem to solve.

Despite all the evidence, Pawian doesn't seem to think there is a problem.
But I reckon he's just mucking about.

I still insist yuo prove that the high number of accident fatalities in Poland is caused solely by bad drivers

You could say the same about all the other countries on that chart.
It makes no difference, Polands figure is terrible.
Anyway, you are definitely not taking this seriously and just playing dumb, so I am out of here.......

@pawian

You are an intelligent man and so I cannot believe you are taking this seriously.

Have you not noticed that you are the only one on this thread defending poor Polish drivers?

Because it only relates the number of accidents in particular countries.

Yes and the majority of people in all countries are from that country.
So your request is pointless.
You are either playing devils advocate for your own amusement or Roz is right............ you've hit the bottle early today.

But it doesn`t say Polish drivers are the worst in Europe

No.

But it does say that they are bloody awful and almost the worst in Europe.
Which you denied.
Or are you another bad Polish driver?

But it doesn`t say Polish drivers are the worst in Europe and that was your claim. :):)

I can only go by my own experiences and have never driven in the very few countries that are worse than Poland.

And did you see which country has the safest drivers?

That his why we Brits can spot bad drivers a mile off...........

I have to back Roz up here.

As I posted earlier, Polish drivers are probably the worst in Europe and it must be something in Poland causing it.
My dad and all my uncles took their tests here in the UK and were all excellent drivers.
I have driven all over Europe and Poles are worse than the French or the Italians.

One should drive more slowly in bad weather conditions

Agreed.But I think he means that when it rains it seems to cause traffic jams.
This happens in the UK too and I have never understood why.

I must say Poles are the absolute worst drivers I have ever encountered.

They are certainly the worst in Europe.Even worse than the French and Italians.

News / Modern F-35 bought by Poland. Good decision? [288]

@Torq

Yes, Russia has very little to be proud about.
Their country is diminishing whilst Poland grows.
At this rate, in a few years time, Russia will be more frightened of Poland than the other way round....
Serbs please take note.... Warsaw, not Moscow.....

News / Modern F-35 bought by Poland. Good decision? [288]

occupying and controlling our territory will be so huge, that it will make any invasion of Poland completely and utterly inviable

Agreedl completely.

What can you do with 32 planes?

Nato can deal with it. The RAF have ordered over a hundred.of these planes and the USAF has hundreds of them.
Russia can not respond and survive.
Serbs please take note..... you will be on the losing side....

32 F-35 Raptors

Opinions are very mixed on the plane.
The RAF have ordered loads of them.
In my opinion though, overall, it is a very good plane.

Genealogy / Second gen Polish-American with little exposure [45]

the people I meet that are under 40 are more than fluent enough to discuss very important subjects

Agreed.
But I got the impression that the OP wanted to learn more about his/her grandfathers time and would be better off talking to older people who, more often than not, cannot speak English.

Yes, the problem is that the youngsters may speak English but they won't be able to tell you enough about history.
The old folk have that knowledge but most of don't speak English.
It is tough.
