Meanwhile the British Motorcyclists' Federation (BMF) and the RAC have warned drivers that if they want to show their support for England's football team they must make sure their flags are specially designed for car use and secured safely.

In a joint statement the organisations warned of the danger of the flags, which are often clamped into closed windows, coming loose. A spot check of the A-13 dual carriageway east of London showed an average of three fallen flags per mile, the RAC said, with a concentration at spots like entrance ramps where motorists speed up.

i'm an old motorcyclist
whilst i have to admit that having a flag on you car on a motorway is potentaily pretty dangerous---and a bit daft--
any where else i can't really see a problem--at least you can't fail to see the car coming LOL so you can be a little more cautious around it

any way i come from the old school of motorcyclists---
half the time you arrive at your destination to find some-thing some-where has fallen of your bike so who am i to complain--:rotfl:
it's supposed to be FUN---
these uber rich buisness men on hugely expensive racing replica bikes
are FAR more likely to cause an accident than some dude with a flag on his car--

in my day if your bike cost more than a house you got laughed out of the pub---
