"News flash from DVLA

In order to assist other motorists in identifying potentially dangerous drivers, it's now compulsory for anyone with a lower than average intelligence and driving ability to display a warning flag.

The flag (consisting of a red cross on a white background) will be attached to the top of at least one door of their vehicle.

For drivers of exceptionally low ability, additional flags are required to be shown. There is no upper limit to the number.

end. "

OK, now thats the joke out of the way:

The other day I saw one of these flags shear off whilst going down the motorway, Going at 70mph, one of them could do serious damage. Fortunatly it didn't hit anyone. What I was wondering was had anyone else seen one of these flags come flying off? And do you think they are dangerous?
