Should top gear be banned after richard hammond recent accident?
I think that the show should have been banned before Richard Hammond had the accident! It teaches kids that drivers can drive fast – but they think they can do it on the road! I don’t like the show – and I certainly don’t like Mr Clarkson! They were talking on the News the other evening about if all the Health and Safety precautions had been taken! Clearly not, in my opinion!
only tree hugging vegetarians want top gear banned it is the best programme on tv i personally love watching cars doing what they are meant to do so why should somebody decide for me what i should watch just because they think it is not safe statistically you are more likely to get killed playing football than competing in a motorsport event any rally driver, boy racer,track day enthusiast would give there right big toe to present that show and even have a bash at driving that jet car but no doubt the health and safety police will have something to say when people like hammond and any other enthusiast know very clearly that when there is machinery involved you can have all the rules and regulations that are available but there are factors that you cannot control if you dont like the show turn over the channel there are over 200 other channels to watch so why spoil other peoples enjoyment by sitting writing letters and mumping these people need a hobby !!
YES and all the Lardy Lads from Top Gear like Jeremy Clarkson who set a bad example to impressionable young male idiots. None of them could hold a candle to the guy who actually does hold the World Land Speed Record. He is a top RAF instructor. The Top Gear lads would despise him as he doesn’t drink like a fish, drives slowly on public roads, and has the discipline, fitness and training required to control a vehicle above 200 mph (which none of the Top Gear lads have). They set a bad example encouraging the Joy Rider culture, and stupid macho worship of speed among a certain section of men so prevalent in this country. Richard Hammond had a Choice. Dr Margaret Davidson hit and killed by the Joy Riders, the antics of Richard Hammond and Top Gear encourage, didn’t.
Should nature programs be banned because Steve Irwin died?I am gutted that Richard Hammond got hurt, and glad he seems to be on the mend, but he is a big boy and he undertook the task of attempting to break the land speen record 100% aware of the risks invlolved. Top gear is a quality show and it is noones fault that this happened. If the slightest mishap caused everything to be banned think how lacking in colour and fun life would be.
