| A proper rich person's car... |
Today’s modern cars are technological marvels. I drive an Audi, a model that is the epitome of comfort, safety, speed and technology.
It is capable of over 200 mph and is equipped with every conceivable driving aid and safety device known to man. It cost me an absolute packet but if you want quality these days, you have to pay for it. And that goes for the tax as well, what with it being a little heavy on the old juice, as it were.
In terms of its safety and quality, it is far superior to the more plebeian vehicles driven by the working classes who have the temerity to clutter up the King's Highway with their older, cheaper cars.
So I really do fail to understand why things like speed limits and driver sobriety criteria should apply to people like me, the well-off people who have invested a lot of money in buying (and taxing!) a car that by design is inherently far safer than most other cars on the road.

Personally, I think it is a sad indictment of how far our ridiculous “health and safety” brigade have been allowed to erode our freedom to the point where "the powers that be" can consider me unfit to drive my ultra-safe Audi, just because I have spent the afternoon drinking my way through eight pints of Starmer's Fresh Start (at 5.8%, a beer that blows away the cobwebs, I can tell you!) for Sunday lunch.
It all just smacks of a leftist, woke nanny state that is in thrall to the hi-viz mafia and our venal, grasping compensation culture. We need to take back control of our roads from the ULEZ-loving, politically-correct, brain-dead wombles who police our roads these days.
Why don’t they just leave the luxury car drivers alone and go hassle the rust-bucket jockeys instead? What do we pay our gas-guzzler road taxes for, after all?

There is an inherent flaw in the safety features of all Audis. It’s the nut behind the wheel! And is this article anything to do with this, I wonder?

Another leftie driven by the politics of envy. Stick to your woke electric
skateboard and stay out of the way of us sensible people.

This seems to be an essay suggesting that the law shouldn’t apply to rich sociopaths.
Doesn’t sound like a democratic proposition to me.

You silly little boy. Of course
the law shouldn’t apply to rich people, any more than the idea of paying taxes
should. That’s what “privilege” means after all – private law! Fortunately, the new Labour government has had the common sense not to change the status quo in this regard.
