Paula Ceely: Idiot

‘I put my complete trust in the sat nav and it led me right into the path of a speeding train.’

That’s because you’re a fucking idiot. However, she continues.

‘I came to this crossing at Ffynongain and there was, like, a metal gate, which looked like just a normal farmers’ gate with a red circle on it.’

A red circle? Hmmm, what could that possibly mean?

‘I thought it was a dead end at first and then there was a little sign saying, if the light is green, open the gates and drive through.’

If the light is green. What would you do? I know that I’d be looking for a green light, what’s more I wouldn’t move until I found one. What I wouldn’t do is, oh, too late…

‘So I opened the gate, drove forward, closed the gate behind me and then went to go and open the gate in front of me. Then I heard this train and I noticed train tracks.’.

What a dozy motherfucker, for the love of God, she’s a second year student at Birmingham University, good to see the future’s in safe hands, eh?

Her shitty little Clio was dragged half a mile down the tracks by a train and all she can say is ‘the crossing wasn’t shown on the sat nav.’, nothing about how she’s really sorry that she put people’s lives at risk, no, no none of that. Does the thought even occur to her that a train hitting her car could cause a derailment?

There are more people in the world than you love. What about the driver? For all he knows he’s hitting a car full of people. Are they going to die, is he going to die, are the people on his train going to die? Long and short of it, is he going to be responsible for the death of other human beings?

Fact is you’re too stupid to be allowed behind the wheel of a car. I say she should be prosecuted for driving without due care and attention.

    It’s idiots like this that make the roads the nightmare that they are. The upside of this is that there is one less Clio on the road. This is a good thing. Not as good as http://www.yourcarisrubbish.co.nr but a good thing nonetheless.

    If you must know, Paula is a friend of mine, she is incredibly intellectual, she was a new driver who made a silly mistake, you can’t tell me you didn’t when you first passed your test

    No, no, you’re right. I made a silly mistake when I first passed my test too; I drove half a mile up the motorway without dipping my headlights.

    Thankfully I didn’t slavishly follow my sat-nav; due to a lack of any real common sense, blindly open a gate; oblivious to the fact that it was a bloody level crossing or put at risk the lives of other people; by parking my car on a railway line.

    Paula admits that the gate had a big red circle on it. If, as you claim, she’s so incredibly intelectual do you not think that she might have maybe had a wee think about what possible significance a red circle on a gate might have?

    Better yet though the article recounts her thoughts at the time:

    She said her initial thought when she heard the horn had been to get into her car and move it.

    “It was so quick that if I had done that, I would have been in the car when it was hit,” she said.

    Are these the actions and words of an intellectual powerhouse? I think not, unfortunately your friend Paula – who I’m sure is a nice girl in a bright colours, simple shapes, fluffy things kind of way – is an idiot.
