where do I start ????

before 7am this morning when it was foggy & dark, PR@T5 driving with side lights on, get a life before the 40 foot artic removes your useless carcass from the face of this earth.

Driving home from work.
Nissan Micras with invisible 3 foot wheel arch extensions on either side of the car, your car will quiet easily go thru a gap that is 7 feet wide, you are driving a small town car not a 40 foot artic.

New ford escorts, crap cars, I saw one in a drag race with a bus, the bus won, went we got to the twisties the bus left us for dead.

New colour traffic lights, the government needs to explain to people what the colours mean, green means go, not find your high way code in the glove box read it for find out what green means, red means stop, not that there may be cars coming from the other direction, amber means nothing at all.

If its got a white line down the middle try staying to the left of it so that I can pass, its not big or clever to block 2 lanes.

Roundabouts, if there is nothing coming from your right you can keep moving, not stop just in case a car is being made, then sold then will eventually arrive at the roundabout & its give way right not give way in all directions.

Indicators they give people a clue that you may be turning, but don't use the 3 roads in advance.

Women, when walking keep in a straight line, staggering about like a P155ED bloke on a Friday night, that way I wont kick you when you stagger in front of me for the 3rd time.

13 year old girls, I know its cool to have your T1T5 & AR53 on display but not when its freezing cold & your turning blue.

BMW 318I drivers, yes its an imprezzzzer & yes its faster than one of your mucky hand shandies leave it out T055ER.

Turning left try it from the left curb & no you don't need to stop to make a left turn.

Busses stay in the bus lane, you have miles of empty road but no you like lot like driving on black roads not red.

Speed humps, why not put them in some of the craters that are now appearing or is the new claming methods, chicanes, speed humps & craters.

Dog **** if I can clean up after my dogs so can you, especially when its outside my front gate.

Like the roundabouts one!

Little Miss WRX

Feel better now?

ScoobyJawa

Oh so very true

rsquire

it's called "living in a very small over crowded island" syndrome

Sadly there is only one cure................

























get the **** out

Little Miss WRX

I dunno about you lot, but I certainly enjoy venting my anger through use of the horn, lights, my voice and hand/fingers.

I must be one of the most intolerant and aggressive drivers on the road - I have no tolerance whatsoever for fecking slow and dawdling women drivers or old people.

dazc2

you should see/hear me when im in my van

SiDHEaD

same here Chelle. If they cant travel at the speedlimit so as not to hinder everyone else they shouldnt be on the road.

It really p!sses me off when some ******** thinks they have the right to slow down 10 drivers stuck behind cos of loads of oncoming traffic.
("Hmm why is that car behind right up my **** with a big traffic jam behind, flashing there lights and indicating left????")

And how annoying is it when you're 10 cars back and the person second wont overtake even though its clear. You then have to start working your way past ducking in when cars appear.

FCK OFF IF YOU CANT TRAVEL AT THE SPEEDLIMIT PULL OVER!!!

(where conditions allow!)

I agree totally Andy, I have no problem pulling over when I see a car behind is wanting to go faster (unless they have just pi55ed me off - then I slow down to wind them up )

It annoys me so much when I am stuck behind - typically a fecking female in a small car like a Corsa or a Fiesta - nose right up to the wind screen. Get of the fecking road if you are too scared to drive, or just get the **** outta my way. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Wow, I feel better for that outburst now.......back to the pilss and padded cell....

dazc2

pilss?

i had one today.....

i was following in my van, a Maverick/Terrano which indicated to turn left....so i slowed down behind and when he had gone, some gimp in a Micra pulled out of the junction which i had already commited to passing.....not only that but the idiot looked straight at me and carried on despite me doing nearly 30mph and still accelerating.......as i was in the van i was going to ram him/it and get the van all tidies up on his/its insurance but couldnt be arsed with the hassle

Little Miss WRX

Pilss are derived from snake venom hence the hissssss at the end.

12LEE

A1 to all that.

What I find really odd is that when I had my Scoob, I was very placid and restrained. Ditto for every "drivers" car I've had. But...now that I drive a horrible Merc A160 in London, I find that I'm caning the nuts off it to make progress and am suffering with lower tolerance levels.

Yes, like the queue of cars one. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
Annoying when you are following a train of 10 cars all dawdling along at 30-40mph, and all tailgating each other, with no intention of overtaking, ever.
So then you try to make a bit of progress when safe, and have to muscle your way back into the queue, which of course no one wants to let you do, so they start flashing lights/waving hands etc, but you're only there for a minute or so before overtaking a few more cars in the queue and eventually dissappearing off into the distance to leave the tailgating morons to run into each other when the car at the front of the queue fluffs his/her gearchange for an uphill section again.

If only half the people on the road had an awareness of other road users, and could keep to the speedlimit when safe, then we'd all be much happier...............

This is all quite thereputic (sp?)

dazc2

12LEE,

snap.....i have a Transit with the weakest engine Ford made for the Tranny.....its gutless and i loose my temper really easily

rest of the van is brilliant though

Little Miss WRX

People who ******* tailgate on motorways when there is no chance of overtaking.

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, are you THICK? don't you think we would have also gone speeding off into the distance if we had the chance?

So dumb ***, just because you think that by muscling yourself up to my bumper so much that I could pop the boot open and you can hop on, doesn't mean I am going to let you pass. More satisfaction for ME in letting you STAY behind me!!!!

[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

dazc2

gimps who are in the second lane approaching you and you want to pull out and pass a wagon...so you pop on your indicator and expect the car coming up along side you to either speed up and pass you to let you out/slow down and let you out/move into the third lane and let you out.....but oh no....they match your speed and plus 0.5 mph so they crawl past you and blatantly ignore your indicator [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Markus

Barge,
mate, sounds like your have a right 'mare of a time

Too many tossers, not enough ammo

dazc2

and idiots who all pile into the 3rd lane even tyhough there is less traffic in the 1st and 2nd lane causing the 3rd lane to sloww to wagon speeds....which makes people mad and undertake

scooby-new

I used to get VERY annoyed with all the above- include also people who don't seem to be able to stay in their chosen lane on roundabouts- drive at about 10-15MPH below the speed limit and then cross the marked lanes-covering the whole roundabout. Impeding the progress of anyone who may be turning right, carrying on straight ahead in the other lane etc.
Now I just try to laugh and imagine them en-route to their next accident- it works wonders and saves me from having a premature heart attack! As has been said here before assume every other road user is a total idiot and then you wont be surprised!

Crush

I just wish i never ever bought a car

I use the motorway every day, and some fookwit in a german car (usually a 318) Feels the need to be right up my fookin **** [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] What the **** goes through their sad little minds? "Ooooh I can do 90+ mph, That makes me such a good driver" I hate every single road user! That includes fookin buses who just pull out and take the paint work off the car [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Then you get some skinny giy in a suit pissing you off [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] Get out the fookin car and then show me how fookin tough you are you fookin ********! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

I can't wait to sell my car, cause I know it's only a matter of time till I can't take anymore and lose it completely

I don't think I've ever relaxed in a car, except as a passenger
