Exclamation Life Without My Scooby

my car is broke, it has been for a few days now

i have been lording it up on a crappy turbo diesel hatchback
i have noticed a MASSIVE diffrence in peoples road attitudes towards me when im driving now

the diffrence is startling

every single day i have been cut up at least ONCE by sumbody in a vectra/mondeo

yesterday had me cut up by a Bora which then had a corsa sxi following it pretty fast, as we aproached a roundabout
i was like "fooken hell" and fully expected a massive collision, that did not happen, god knows how

on the way to work i had another bloke in a golf sitting right up my **** as i did 6oish while starting to slow for a roundabout up ahead.

stuff like this has never happend while i have been driving the red and white scooby about, i feel like a superhuman who has been raped of his special powers

another massive thing i have noticed is clowns not useing indicators on roundabouts

waiting to turn right, i see a gap, go to pull out and this car comes flying right around without the indicator on (thought he was going straight on)

foot down in the derv, **** **** fedk, lag lag lag, slipped the clutch and reved it again and ended up smoking the tyres around the roundabout to get out the way

The best ones are the ones who do one indication and pull straight out (or just pull straight out without looking), some really scary people out there

The amount of people who dont indicate at roundabouts is amazing.
