Driver banned for having 12 people in the car!!!

July 3, 2008 4:36am CST
A motorist who was caught carrying 12 passengers in his car - none of whom were wearing a seat belt - was banned from driving for a year. Abraham was also fined £500 and told to pay £400 court costs for having four adults and nine children aged between one and ten in the four door Volvo saloon. The 31 year old from Tottenham, London was on holiday in Llandudno, North wales when he was pulled over by police officers last August. He had denied dangerous driving!! Can you imagine if something had happened, makes you wonder where all the children were sat and to top it off he didnt think he was driving dangerously!!! What would you do if you found out that your children had been in the car?? Or if it was your partner who was driving with these people in the car and belted up???

People do this and think that nothing bad will ever happen, they think that they are careful drivers so it will be alright. I dont know why they put themselves and other people at risk like this because nasty accidents do happen. If any of my children were in the car and I did not know I would be furious, I would not know because there is no way that I would willingly let them go in a car with that many people in it. My hubby would not dare to put the kids at risk like that, not that he would, but he would not anyway as he knows his life would not be worth living.
