There have been various threads about v-bad driving but
if a post came up like the above and you *knew* it was you, would you own up to it and take the abuse ??

Andy

P.s I drove like a **** today

Jas, thank god you don't drive like a pr1ck then !! lol

It's a difficult question as one person may see things one way, and another, a totally different way. I drive fast, and I "enjoy" driving, like to feel I don't drive like a **** in most peoples eyes tho...but who know what the cars we overtake etc think.

scooby k, good point! We know what we can safely get away with with our motors, but some of the 'folks' we overtake must sometimes think that they are just about to be part of a horror smash. They must then think (once we have 'safely' passed by!)one of two things...
1: "****in brilliant!, look how quick that is!!!"
or
2: "****in idiot!!!...could have killed the whole of western europe driving like that etc etc"
personally, i think that if you drive it courtiously then you will get a smile or a flash off the people you have just blown away!!!
As for the moaners... you could save them fallin off a cliff and they'd sue you for assault!
Jibber over, martin
p.s. if you print the swear words then i'm sorry for using abusive language, if you delete them then who gives a fu**?

Years ago I liked to make old people shake their fists at me on the motorway.
When they're dawdling along in the middle lane pass them on the inside as fast as you can.
Luckily I had a slow car then, and I've grown out of it now.

I used to have the same horn as the milk truck back home and would sit at the top of the drive to the old people village and toot my horn. They would trundle up to get their milk and I would drive off. When the milkman did come they would think it was me and stay down the drive. Do I qualify?

I have come to the conclusion I can't drive...I change gear mid corner, back off whilst going round roundabouts and brake so hard that a set of brake discs lasts about 3 months.

Worst of all I sinned big time the other day on the M5 - bloke in a £199k Bentley decided he'd missed the junction for the M4 and slammed on his brakes right in front of me whilst we were both doing xxx mph. So I thought it would be clever to pass him and do the same at xxx + 20 mph. It wasn't and he ended up trying to force me in to the hard shoulder for a "chat".

I used to like driving but don't really any more. Time to buy a Fiesta I think

lol @ turbo - i was in the uRaBus mobile at the time of this incident and i reckon stopping for a chat would have been a good idea as he was a ***** - for careering over 3 lanes just AFTER an exit (yeah i know he drove a bentley - but i don't think there designed for ploughing into other cars or metal barrier's just to get off at a junction. So i reckon we should have stopped off for a chat...

It was embarassing man....I had to put my foot down afterwards coz I didn't want anyone to see my face....had a few words with myself after that and drove like an angel for at least, well, half an hour or so.......no, but seriously. It's not big and it's not clever I know.
