Alcohol and Limo Hire

A story from the US covered a group of parents who’d responsibly hired a limousine to take a group of their teenage children to a school dance.

Shortly after departure and following several near accidents, the passengers realised that the driver (we won’t call him a chauffeur) was completely inebriated and incapable of driving. They insisted he pulled over and incredibly, the kids themselves then confiscated his keys and called the police.

The driver was subsequently found to be several times over the drink-drive alcohol limit.

Of course, the world is a big place and given the numbers of people in it, it’s inevitable that someone, somewhere, will do something wrong.  Even so, we can assure you that such an event would be utterly inconceivable for Bayside Limousines and our hand-picked chauffeurs or we hope, any other reputable company offering limousine hire, Melbourne, Sydney or anywhere else for that matter.

It does though also bring up the question of alcohol in our vehicles. Read more https://www.baysidelimousines.com.au/alcohol-and-limo-hire/

Tyres and Limousine Hire

At Bayside Limousines, we’re justifiably proud of our fleet.

There are some very different vehicles in it but whether you’re considering limousine hire Sydney, Melbourne or anywhere else, you’ll see all our vehicles have one thing in common – tyres!

So, where did the tyre (or tire) come from?

A logical progression

For centuries, people had put things onto the outside of wooden cartwheel rims to try and make them quieter, more comfortable or most commonly, able to last longer on the poor roads. Originally those coverings were leather but later became iron.

The process of fixing those bands in English was called creating “attire”, as in dressing the wheel.

The Scottish dimension

Solid rubber began to be used for some rims in the 19th century.

Incredibly, it was as early as the 1840s that a Scot, Robert William Thomson, patented the world’s first design for a pneumatic tyre but this never went into production.
