Apparently the police can tell whether the driver was female and whether they were wearing their seatbelt by because there is always a lipstick kiss mark in the centre of a deployed airbag. Lets hope, if yours deploys whilst unplugging it, that you dont leave a lipstick mark on it

Mine pay for all tickets He's at Askham Bryan at York, it might be worth ring them and asking if the scheme they run is a national thing.. It's this one Askham Bryan College - Our Courses

Yes it's the safest way I took the dash out of my Landcruiser and that has airbags everywhere, I must have unplugged a thousand plugs, but everything worked when I put it all back together and connected the battery

I took on a lad and voluntarily put him into college. He does 1 week a month at college over an 18 month period and comes out with every ticket The college will come out and assess you Health and Safety wise, accident book, service record book, look at all your equipment to make sure you are loler, cossh and riddor compliant etc etc Right down to having a fire extinguisher in the motor and one in the workshop You have to pay him I think £95 and set him on the books properly, I have got mine down as £120 and working three days a week. You'll have to have a H&S policy etc etc Its all a pain in the butt at first but over the last 12 months I am getting there and it makes me wonder how bad "I" was paper work wise Everything seems quite easy now it's just getting everything in place to start with

Or you could just drive at the tree and at the last second brake, scaring the car into believing it's going to crash

That looks the fella, there's no problems with it setting off if you unplug it which will disable it the only problem you may encounter is that your engine management light or Airbag service light may come on This is what happened to the chap I know whilst getting a locked out motorist into her car using a slim jim door slider he accidently cut into the door airbag wires which set off the air bag, it shot the thin metal unlocking tool up under his chin and it exited out the top of his head http://www.snopes.com/autos/hazards/slimjim.asp

All dogs should be under the direct control of the owner at all times, any dogs consistently roaming the street should be taken away from the owner and given to someone more responsible

I would unplug the bag direclty, as for the tensioner, removing the danger of the airbag to the child far outweighs the benefits of a bit of pre-tension. Be careful when dealing with airbags, I know a chap that was killed by one

I have very very very few casualties Tony. I have even been known to dismantle trees without disturbing flowers underneath. Imust admit though, this time it was just pure laziness on my part. This customer actually tipped me £20 for 3 hours work. I told him he shouldn't but he expressed how profesional I'd been and it made a change to have someone pruning his trees that actually knew what they were doing and did an excellent job

Nice one Justme Just out of interest how did you line the plate up with the shaft so it is centered and doesn't wobble

I know mate, was only jesting, I watched a chappie in one yesterday, they can do wonders with them when they know what they are doing
-
Yes but can I drive it ?? Plannings a pain in the butt, I might just request a site meeting and tell them what I intend to do with the area and ask what plannings I need for log storage, barn, polytunnel, chip storage etc etc

At least with connies you've got a nice chewy hinge that holds till the death, your butt would have been puckering if it had been a syc with that side lean
