Really?

Wow. That’s intense.

I don’t remember the last time the Pope passed me on the road, if you don’t play the game, you don’t make the rules. And number 5 will not go over well with Italian Ferrari drivers!

They should make this a multiple choice test in Driver Ed.
1. What “shalt not you do” on the road according to the Vatican’s 10 Commandments for Driving?
A. Use Cell Phone
B. swerve into oncoming traffic
C. Kill

5. Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.

I’d say all Hummer owners are going to hell – and all those with 22in(and bigger) wheels are already living in hell but they’re too high on themselves to realise it.

Hey Pope, back to helping the needy and all that. How many of the 2 billion people on this planet without access to clean drinking water are out driving on the roads today?

Nice one Maximus!

Is this for real?
Perhaps the Pope is still a little upset about the guy trying to climb into the Pope-Mobile several days ago.

They forgot ‘Thou shalt not eat a hotdog on Fridays wilst driving’.
Let’s see if this has any effect. Every major Catholic country I’ve ever driven in (Italy, France, Philipines, all of Latin America…) the roads are their own hells on Earth.

If I break the rules will I be excommunicated? On second thought, I’m Jewish, so I could give a **** if I’m excommunicated.

Jon.

At least catholics still have drinking. All you catholics must trade in all your cars that get less than 40mpg, have more than 110hp, are faster than 17 secs in the quarter mile, have a better car than your neighbour or anyone who may be able to see you at any given time and like your car, have matching paint on each fender and / or panel, have stereo’s, an audible exhaust, leather, nav, gps, heated seats, power windows, moonroof, convertible top, HID’s etc.

Either this will be the uprising of Daewoo, the fall of Catholicism or a new breed of sinners as everything stated above is in violation of commandment #5.

You will in fact go to hell, the pope says so, and we all know he is in direct contact with God who told them to make these laws in his name and you cannot dispute it.

dean, I told your dad that your mother should have swallowed, but did he listen? No. Unfortuanetly the best part of you ran down your mom’s ass crack and left a brown stain on the mattress. Coincidentally that is same spot you stare at while jerking off.

Haha they deleted my post and left deans again. Hey dean go kill yourself

lol he wasnt even talking to you….

This is RETARDED by the way, I mean, the pope does make all the rules, he is the one who determines who goes to that fake place called hell. quite using hell as a means to scare people into “good behaviour”

Am I the only ones who thinks these “commandments” are pretty decent? Nothing retarded about offering to be a designated driver, help the needed and not try to race when you have a pimpmyride civic. Also, it never says in the article that the Pope did this. The Vatican is a state in itself within Italy, they made these road rules and quite honestly, I think everybody should follow it. I’m not religious but again, why is everyone hating so badly? Get past your bull**** and see this for what it is– good road advice.

If they don’t apply to you, then simply don’t follow them!! Also I think regardless of religion, this are valuable guidelines, that could help all of us. Instead of immediatly criticizing, you can analize them, and see which ones apply to you! Also where’s the tolerance you americans are always preaching about. RESPECT!! no need to insult.

Thou shall not car jack.
Thou shall not jack in cars.
Thouest pimps shall pass out umbrellas to all hookers on rainy nights.

What the hell is a pope anyway?

Obviously most are common sense, and are practiced by almost every driver out there already. If you needed the pope to tell you this, there’s much bigger problems.

Seeing as all of them but number 5, are redundant being they are covered by common sense, it leads me to beleive the only reason this list was created was #5. The pope wants you to donate your rides to him, so he can collect them all and trade ‘em in on a Veyron.

I think the pope would look good in a dodge demon, or a diablo, he is an idol which makes him satan anyways.

he looks like the emperor from star wars.

Am I the only one who thinks #1 is redundant? Wasn’t this covered elsewhere, like . . . the REAL 10 Commandments?

meh. i think the pope is touching on a subject he knows nothing about. Not to say that those little “rules” are wrong, but to just let the driving laws left to the government

WWJD?

I think Jesus WOULD use his turn signals!

He should make the eleventh commandment of driving: Slower traffic keep right.

deantj what do you mean “No one care about the real 10 commandments”? How can you speak for me?

By the way, the original Ten Commandments weren’t given as rules to qualify people for heaven, they were given as a light to reveal our intrinsic wickedness before a holy God and resulting need for a Savior. Jesus is that Savior. The Christian message is simply this — accepting that Christ did what we can’t and asking for His forgiveness. You can do it right now by asking Him.

Oh yeah, what did Jon say that so upset you?

Guess I’ve blown it on #5!

Want you mean I can’t get a Viper now? Wait! I’m not Catholic…

My Pastor is going to have a field day with this…

Wow. Thanks. That’s gona be a big help. But I am not Catholic or even Christian so – meh

Is this REALLY what passes for news on here anymore? Ridiculous! I feel like this is something my grandmother would have forwarded to my email. Thanks for the interesting and exciting automotive industry news!

the pope can eat a fat dick since when did he contribute anything to society. that blind bastard cant even drive. he should just shut up.

LP640, you should start by respecting, and keeping your stupid opinios to yourself, to some people he is important.. not that you would understand, retard!

why do you guys attack each other for no reason? How is that a good use of your time?

I demand to know who at the Vatican thought this was a good idea, so I may personally punch them in the face. They (the Vatican) have no place telling people how to drive or what cars to own.

these kid rapers need to stay out of every facet of my life.

does anyone really listen to the pope? i mean seriously…i just dont understand the rabid teenage girls on tv who go crazy over the pope as if he was the whole beatles band.

CTS driver:

that wasn’t funny! You’re forgiven (by me, but you’ve gotta make your own arrangements beyond that)

And the pope is not an idol. Your wierd evangelical friends brainwash you into thinking that?

Y’all are sick.

LP640 — you should start praying now

jonnycat, don’t be stupid. nobody is forcing these rules upon y’all, it’s just a suggestionthat would help us all. Just like if all you godless heathens followed the real 10 Commandments (or even just the non-religiuos ones) we’d all benefit.

anyways there isnt even a road in the vatican more than a hundred feet long, it must be one hell of a dangerous 100 feet if the pope took time to draft a 35 page memo with 10 road commandments.

jackjimturkey, depends on the view, to a christian and the original 10 commandments the pope can be seen as an idol. your faith in jesus christ as your savior is what really counts.what makes the pope (an elected official)better than you or me, his faith or his followers? i posted but it didnt show up so this is a repost
.
1c3d0g, that made me laugh a good one, you nailed my methhead parents , i disowned them years ago, i would gladly buy you a beer. god will have to judge me on the honor thy parents though. failed abortion, i think i need to cover up the hot coathanger marks on my body.
today was a friggin blast way toooooo funny thanks guys.

When the popemobile is a rusty old Yugo with a 400cc 2-banger, and when the catholic church ceases to be the wealthiest business and largest gold depository on the planet, maybe we’ll talk. Till the, the pope can issue

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF LeftLaneNews
.
… 1) Thou shalt worship all BMWs no matter how ugly and ****ty they are.
… 2) Thou shalt flame all US automaker products to display your stupidity.
… 3) Thou shalt worship Deantj and show him proper respect.
… 4) Thou shalt covet anything that is better than the fartcan Civic most of you drive.

… 9) “Keepers Of The Speed” deserve a fate worse than death.
… 10) The pope hath nothing better to do.

I like #3

I guess the Vatican had to do something constructive besides deciding where to move all their priests that have been molesting young boys.

I LIKE #5 RICARDO, THEYRE DEAD ANYWAYS WHATS A FEW MORE SCRAPES.

CTS driver:

how are the forst 10 commandments an idol? maybe some could use the stone bearing them as an idol, but the commandments themselves, no.

Catholics have faith in god. The pope is cxalled “servant of the servants of god.” John Paul II owned but the clothes on his back when he died.

But I don’t want to debate theology, i just say that many of thse suggestions make sense

jack not the 10 commandments but the commandment that says not to worship false idols,to me when i see my neighbors asking their statue of guadalupe (giving her gifts of flowers and food) for health and prosperity i think false idol, theology and theosophy are open to interpertation, remember its 1 bible for all christian spinoffs (except the mormans)and each has their own interpretation.
come on people do we need the church to tell us what we learned in drivers ed? this is all common sence,and drivers courtesy.

can somebody explain how a catholic latin american gang member can tatoo virgin mary on his chest then go do a driveby, murder an innocent child, steal,rob deal drugs then go to church on sunday.

CTS if people are asking their statues for health, they’re not properly practicing their faith.

Actually, I think many religions have tailored their bibles for whatever reason.

“can somebody explain how a catholic latin american gang member can tatoo virgin mary on his chest then go do a driveby, murder an innocent child, steal,rob deal drugs then go to church on sunday.”

Simple:
hypocrisy. You can fool a priest, but you can’t fool God.
And the catholic hypocrites aren’t just latino.

^^^^true jack, hypocrates come in all forms, look at the idiot southern protostants with their hoods, just as bad.

I think #9 should be fate worse than a slow, and horrifically unimaginable torture leading to your unfortunate and completely accidental manslaughter.

Verily I sayeth, thy pope may bloweth me.

thou shalt take thy rod and suckle.

I almost have a hard time believing that this story is real, and that, in fact, the pope/the vatican actually issued this bull**** legitimately. But then my senses get a hold of me, I realize that this is the pope/the vatican, and then I understand that ANY bull****, such as this, is possible.

CTS DRIVER: It happens the same way a Caucasian catholic gang member can tattoo virgin mary on his chest then go do a drive by, murder an innocent child, steal,rob deal drugs then go to church on sunday.

OR ANY CRISTIAN WHO KILLS FOR THAT MATTER.
LOOK AT IRELAND, THEY HAVE KILLED EACH OTHER IN THE NAME OF GOD FOR YEARS. OR WORSE THE AMERICAN SOUTHERN PROTOSTANTS, OR ANY PRISON BASED GANG. HYPOCRACY IS ABUNDANT.
LAMBO, GOOD TO SEE YOU ARE BACK FROM…..VACATION.
