Webbed fingers tend to work better with mole grips. :)

That reminds me of a friend who used to take off the horn button, then unscrew the centre nut on the steering wheel, pull it off the splines and then hand it to his by now astonished passenger as he drove along.

I wished I had had the presence of mind to lob it out of the window. He did carry a set of pre adjusted mole grips for such an eventuality but back then I was unconvinced that it would work. The Norfolk fellow must have really damaged the splines to be able to get enough grip.

Slightly off topic but my dad told me he got fined years ago for causing an accident by not indicating. He was adamant that he did using the new fangled semaphore indicator( you have to be old to remember those!). The other driver was a respected member of society (probably drunk) who said he did not signal using his arm so the court sided with him.
