I kid you not I'm still seething from 8 am this morning. A fooking asain women driver wearing a huge blanket around her head pulled right out in front of me, she should of give way so I slammed on in absolute disbelief she has now stalled in the cross road takes her 3 times to start cad and carry on and not a fooking hand gesture apology or jack shit.

IT'S NOT SAFE TO WEAR THINGS THAT RESTRICT YOUR VISION LIKE A BUKRA WHILST DRIVING.

I SO MAD LOL Need to let it go... and breathe. .. how she didn't see me coming down is beyond me it would of been a right crash hadn't I have slammed on. Argh!!!

You get bad drivers wherever you go, doesn't give you a right to classify what someone can and can't wear.

Calm down and get off your phone if you're driving

What's a bukra?? Lol

This happened 9 hours ago and you are still seething about it? Perhaps you need anger management? Nothing was damaged, no one was injured. Unless you wore the burka yourself you have no idea what she could and could not see.

Did you get her details and report it to the police so that they could ascertain if there was anything wrong with her apparel?

If we really are being pedantic you can import then sell them and wear them most places except France and a few other states. I know for a fact a couple of guys brought them back to the UK and worn them for fancy dress. Ok it might not be really that PC but the fact is they and others have worn them in the UK.

As above, we have no idea what it actually was, or why she was wearing it.

Some headgear is worn for religious reasons or because of tradition. Referring to such items across the board as "blankets" certainly is racist and definitely not respectful as the OP is claiming to be.

They can be worn anywhere if the person so decides, pretty poor if you think they are only worn in one country.

That wasn't necessarily down to her headwear.

People with perfect vision and no headgear of any type sometimes have accidents because they don't look or don't see things.

I've had people pull out in front of me. They made a mistake. It didn't mean they couldn't see me, they just didn't look or didn't process that I was there.

He's making his intentions and his attitude very clear.

Blanket is quite clearly offensive and derogatory.

He's gone totally over the top. Calling for the burka to be banned? As others have pointed out, a burka wouldn't have restricted the woman's vision.

If she wasn't wearing a Burka I'm sure this thread wouldn't exist right?

Then it would be because she was a woman, or Asian, or probably got her driving licence in a packet of Cornflakes.

I'm sure the OP has never made a single mistake when driving."

...awkward.

Did slightly lol when she stalled 3 times I did cringe for her but when she drove off without acknowledgement I saw red I mean red lol!

Three possible reasons I can think of:

1 she was embarrassed

2 she felt intimidated

3 she was ignorant"

Maybe she was in a rush and had something on her mind.

Perhaps that's why she pulled out in front of traffic and then repeatedly stalled her car.

Blanket isn't an offensive term so please leave your high horse. As for restriction of vision if it was a burka it will impair vision as does a full face helmet in a car so please do not insult peoples intelligence anything partially covering the face restricts peripheral vision. I have peen polite so far but your ignorance is irritating now and your desire to twist and pervert others is intolerable.

So no one ever pulls out on someone else when they are not wearing a burka? No.accidents have ever been caused or narrowly avoided through sheer incompetence or momentary lapses in concentration? Because by your argument, everyone that doesn't wear a burka would be able to see properly and therefore no accidents would occur?

"Well if you could clearly see what she was wearing down to the finer detail then I guess you also weren't looking where you were going

How can you miss a blanket wrapped around a head. Just to be clear this isn't one bit a racist thread I have loads of respect for different religions. This is about the bastard burka.

You continually call it a "blanket" and that's being respectful of the religion and not racist?

Blanket? Really?

How can one be "racist" about an item that's not worn because of a religious dictum? Please stop throwing the racist card around - it does more damage than good."

I thought racism was about someone's race, not religion?

so as 26% of collisions involve someone between the ages of 17-24 we can ban them too. Old people. A elderly gentleman had a heart attack at the wheel of his car in my local town two months ago, drove straight through a car salesman's showroom window after mounting the kerb and narrowly avoiding pedestrians.

Now all we need is a burka wearing teenager with a heart condition For true carnage.....

She was a bad driver, didn't look, maybe the kids had been driving her mad all morning. We have ALL got in a car stressed and tired and made mistakes; but let's blame an item of clothing and do the old tongue in cheek racism threads, it's just a bit of fun right?

"IT'S NOT SAFE TO WEAR THINGS THAT RESTRICT YOUR VISION LIKE A BUKRA WHILST DRIVING."

I would agree on this point, but does the Burka severely restrict vision? I'm not sure. Provided the eyes are completely uncovered I would argue that they probably afford more all round visibility than a Motorcycle helmet.

"The burka doesnt block peripheral vision just so you know. She was just a bad driver lol."

Very valid. I am frequently appalled by the standard of some peoples driving in this country. I think it's about time Motorway driving was included in the Standard 'L' test - Especially as many of our towns now have Dual Carriageway bypasses, yet nobody seems to know how to use them. Many people don't seem to realise that when joining a dual carriageway / motorway, you are required to match your speed to that of traffic on the main carriageway, not cause them to take action to avoid you.

I could go on.....

"You get bad drivers wherever you go, doesn't give you a right to classify what someone can and can't wear."

Yep, and the last time I checked, we still lived in a free country

Rag isn't an offensive term but it is when it's used to describe turban wearers as ragheads

Blanket isn't an offensive term unless it's used with that intention. Like here.

Does anyone think it likely she was actually wearing a blanket? The OP didn't because he was quite clear he believed it to be a "bukra"

He meant to be insulting and derogatory and everyone here knows that, even those pretending otherwise as a basis to snipe and argue.

Stating she's Asian shows the OP's view of race and his comments about "blankets" clearly shows his "respect" for religious tolerance and ethnic traditions and customs.

Now, cab drivers in Burkhas, that would fuck with your minds lol

"How about we ban motorcycle helmets too. They block more peripheral vision then a burka does."

Yeh but you need to take a bike helmet off in petrol stations and banks.

Say no more.

In those cases the right to dress how you like is balanced by the risk of criminal activities, with in the case of the Burka, etc, no religious or cultural weight to push it

Over the rainbow, under the bridge

"I need a ban on bus drivers. A huge double-decker pulled out on me at a junction today. I had to apply my brakes and stop even though I had the right of way.

I decided the bus would win in a fight though so I didn't bother to wag my finger or toot my horn.

I would ban okra, given the chance. I just don't like it.

Okra is proper slimy. I don't like that feeling. Gives me goosebumps and raises the hair on my body.

It shouldn't be slimy if it's been cooked correctly. My ex sister in law cooks it with lamb. Lovely. Bay Leaves, or rosemary with lamb..

She's Kurdish so cooks it as a traditional Kurdish dish (try saying that when you're pissed!). It's done with lamb in a tomato sauce.

"Maybe she thought she doesn't have time to wait for a pretzel, so thought she'd cut you off before stalling

...awkward.

Did slightly lol when she stalled 3 times I did cringe for her but when she drove off without acknowledgement I saw red I mean red lol!"

think your 'story' is all over the shop..

this bit is at odds with your original post in that your rage was about her pulling out and cutting you up ..?

what would she have to acknowledge..?

why would she if as you say she caused you to 'slam on'..

also you dont seem bothered that the guy behind was so close with the speed at 30mph that he had to slam on also..

he was more of a risk to you than her..

strange one this..

It seems that nobody on here actually knows what a burka actually is. Google images show that many types of burka do restrict peripheral, and forward vision. Even a niqab, which is more common, is worn with a headscarf that is loose at the sides, which would have the same effect.

LOL these forum posts about Asians are quite funny!.

Dude, forget her ethnicity or what she was wearing, in the end it just comes down to bad driving.

Whether she was wearing a burkha, a motorcycle helmet, a scream mask, a pirates eye patch.... it still comes down to driving skill and nothing else!!

And if this sort of thing gets you sooo angry think an anger management/road rage course may help you out

You have done exactly that with anyone who has an opinion contrary to yours. Trying to shut people up who stated they were offended by the unpleasant terms used.
