Time to continue My favourite topic! My choices seem to change every week! 1) Chavy boy racers with nodding dogs, fluffy dice and a farty exhaust on their 1.0 L saxo/corsa/punto actually believing that their car is decent! Actually, seeing them is quite funny.roflmao 2)Wagon drivers that take 3 miles to overtake the guy in front only to pull in and do exactly the same speed as the vehicle they have just overtaken. Don't they realise the traffic problems they cause. 3) The driver that does 40MPH in a 60 zone and then gives you rude signs when you overtake (in a safe and reasonable manner). Some time these drivers actually speed up while you are overtaking, pro-longing the manouvre and endangering your life. 4)Drivers that tailgate you even though there is nowhere you can go (generally due to traffic). What do they expect you to do? Morph through the car infront? 5)Annoying people that say "if you don't speed you won't get caught". Obviously these people don't realise that not everyone who gets caught speeding was intentionally doing so.

1 Lorries that overtake on duel carriageways because they are doing 1mph faster then the lorry in front causing tailbacks in both lanes. 2 40mph everywhere drivers. In my experience these cover 2 and 3 in Andy's list. They tend to accellerate when you try and overtake them. If you have recently overtaken them and you come into an area where you have to go slowly (e.g. outside a school) they stick to your rear end. 3 Drivers who do not indicate properly or use the correct lanes at roundabouts. On my way home from work there is a roundabout where I go straight ahead, the third exit. Despite the fact that the left lane is clearly marked for the first left, the middle lane for the second left and the right lane for straight ahead or turning right, their is usually some idiot going straight ahead from the middle lane beeping at those who used the correct lane as if they are in the wrong. 4 Tailgaiters. Need I say more. 5 People that stay in the middle lane on motorways. |

Always liked that site. I went to the Severn Valley Railway on Saturday. This involves spells on the M25, M40, and M42. If the camera hadn't have been in the boot of the car, I'd have had dozens. We followed a Merc for 40 miles that was in the middle lane. All of a sudden, it pulled into the inside lane. I conjectured that it would pull into the services in a few miles time without signalling. It did.... Before anyone mutters about taking pics while driving, I was in the passenger seat - I don't actually drive, I just ride a bike. |

It is a menace, I absolutely hate driving on motorways as you get all the village idiots driving in one go. I often wonder if people are scraed of the inside lane or something.... Maybe they think they'll get anthrax or something.... |

Buses can be annoying! Sometimes they don't indicate and suddenly pull out infront of you. ![]() Also drivers that wink at me, I don't like that.

You get stone chippings when they don't role they don't roll the road properly. They tend to do this when they resurface allegedly quiet roads. |
