My neighbour has one of these cars and I have never seen her with passengers or carrying goods. Can understand if they need to carry a wheelchair or small mobility scooter. Must admit I do not drive down certain roads as I know that there is insufficient room for 2 cars to pass. -
Must have been around 15- 20 years ago our house was repainted. I remember the cost of scaffolding was more expensive than the decorators.

@Sue said: nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? This is the point. Adults are meant to teach their children by example. It sounds as though the adult guardian/ father in this case did not react appropriately. Had a truly sincere apology been given, I suspect the OP would not have posted on here. It is possible the OP snapped in the heat of the moment, but they were possibly startled because they were hit from behind? If we are startled it can be instinctive to initially react with anger. I also agree that it would be highly irresponsible to let any very young child ride or walk or do anything on a busy public street without supervision- most of all to protect the child. If in this case the child was out of the adult's line of sight that is perhaps another indication that the father needs a refresh in appropriate behaviour around a child, as well as his manners.
