Default Silly stupid mothers...

in their fecking-school-fecking-run-fecking-steamed-up-fecking- death traps.


HOW HARD IS IT TO GET OUT TO YOUR CAR 5 MINUTES EARLIER AND DE-MIST IT? You dumb, stupid bints

TWICE this morning I almost had a head on collision because some daft tart driving to / from dropping their precious off hasn't bothered to de-mist their car. All they had done was rub a tiny, tiny circle off and driven away. Of course the tiny, tiny circle soon misted up and what do they do???? They put the WIPERS on!!! ARGH!!!!

Oh, and the two near misses? In the half mile from my house to the train station.

At least they didn't hit you mate

I had a beauty this morning, 2 cars in front of me, to my right in the middle lane of the M25 some doughnut in a Passat drove into the back a Transit van. None of us had been doing more than 5mph, must have been the slowest crash I've ever seen.

To beat this, they got out and started arguing in the middle lane of the motorway. I do sometimes wonder about people.

Nightmare Kieran.... You need eyes in the back of your head during school pickup/dropoff times.... the last thing on their minds is driving....

I'm not sure which annoys me the most - their total lack of consideration for anyone else or the fact that they were genuinely utterly oblivious to the fact that i was there.

If I knew how to do that stunt thing where you can roll over the bonnet of a car safely I bloody would!

(for those who didn't realise... this was while I was cycling to the train station)

If I had only a tenth of a penny for everytime I see silly bollocks drivers on the road I would be a very very rich man.

I suppose its that time of year, I always clear my windscreen and wind my windows down if they are at all misty, then I can see and Hear better.

I have found most drivers to be ok if they see you but its guaranteeing that they have thats the problem, was in the car today as knackered after a works gokarting outing last night (shame as a lovely day) and saw a guy in a Bentley Conti GT nearly crash due to fannying with his phone, 110 grand car and cant afford hands free ?

They dont set out to kill you, and are very remorseful when they do but its getting the point across that they may like to take driving a two tonne vehicle with a little concentration and not rely on the fact they are safe.

I think part of it is that modern cars can be driven by muppets without any skill, a Conti GT or Range Rover is simplicity itself to drive (with plenty of distracing gadgets) and the owner is so isolated they dont have a clue what its like for those outside, a lot dont give afook but being overtaken at close quarters by something so big on full throttle is plain alarming but will be serenity itself in the cabin with a little push in the back being the only clue whilst they slouch arm outstretched Thor to signify their importance.

No: I hate stupid women, and stupid men and stupid kids. I'm very accomodating in my hatred to all things stupid.

Odin know what I'd do if some daft get actually hit me (did you see that? clever use of phonetics there )


and finally: I CYCLE to the station, catch the train in, and then CYCLE home the 14 and bit miles in the evening. Although i might change this around when we move to the new building, so I can take advantage of the quieter roads (and shower!) in the morning.

I hate to slate my own sex, but I try to avoid the school run Mums as much as possible. They drive met nuts with their insistance of getting on the bum end of my car. I'm sure they draw comfort from it. aaggggrrrhhhh

what wrong with kids walking to school ?? It might be the only exercise they get in a day

windydaughter's friends think my car is cool, maybe it's because it isn't a 4x4 or a mummy wagon

mate i get this all the time .


the other morning i was driving to work where i have to pass a school (which i slow down for to crawling speed ) 1 because its a school 2 because there are these people carriers lining both sides of the road . i was plodding along when 2 mad women jumped out in front of my car flailing there arms shouting at me to slow down , ihad to stop and the woman came up to my woman blathering that i was incosiderate speeding , when i told her that i was only doing 10-15 mph , she went but i heard u and u were speeding , i then proceeded to ask her so u didnt see me but u heard me so u assumed i was speeding , she went your car was making alot of noise ( have u heard a afterburner vortex ) in the end i got so pissed off i told her to f*ck off and carried on with my journey.

it really wound me up . just shows u how brainless they are .

i always take car by schools and stuff , if anything she caused more danger by jumping out in front of my car the stupid bitch ***** .


btw she was driving an x5 and by the look of it only had 1 kid .


rant over
