Silly bright HID's - yes its alot safer if you can illuminate the entire country but its just not needed

idiot lights on when its not foggy

Women...and yes its usally women round here...that drop their 1 kid off in a mahoosive 4x4 blocking up the roads. They have no awareness of anything around them. Bring on the haters!

Old people who are generally too slow to react to anything...

People on the phone...

People that drive 20 on the country lane to work and then floor it as soon as they get to the residential area...

People that get too far up your arse

and finally...

THAT STUPID FUCKING DINNER MASHING TWATTER WHO PARKS HALF OF HIS TRACTOR STICKING OUT IN THE ROAD ON A BLIND CORNER!!!

Old people that cant drive, had an old bloke give me a lift back to work after servicing it, he decided to pull out on a busy roundabout in 4th

Women drivers- I'm not sexist or anything but there is a shockingly high number of moronic drivers that do silly things and just happen to be women.

For example...I'm driving on the main road and a woman driver coming from a side road will just drive right in front of me on the main road and stop and then look at me as if to say...can I go? OF COURSE YO CAN F****** GO...its not like I can go through you now that you've blocked the main road is it? Oh and when they don't say thanks...argh!

I don't know where people get the whole "women are safer drivers" malarkey from. IF that is the case then the statistics fail to account for normal driving behaviour. I think a lot of women (not all of course) lack confidence when driving. Honestly....I'd rather be on the roads with these guys:

men are just as bad as women for most things.

people who think they have a better car than me so act like I'm not there!!!

one bmw driver pulled out on me and there was nothing behind me!!

and drivers who sit in the outside lane doing 75 and wont move out of the way.

if I'm in a rush, everybody else on the road pisses me off. they're in my goddam way :ninja: haha

if I'm not: nobody really irritates me apart from people who obviously cant drive. I'm pretty laid back

although some guy in a fucking hgv tipper lorry nearly ploughed into the side of me today by caining it on a tight road onto a small roundabout while i was going round. so much for giving way to traffic already on the roundabout, but oh well

I used to get angry at everything but just don't give a shit now. I like sitting 5 mph or so below the speed limit, everywhere. Being comfortable, relaxed, gangster lean on the go. Music on. Now and again I fancy a thrash but nowhere near as often as I did before.

Plus there is NOTHING more entertaining than doing 25 through a town or village and seeing how many cars you have building up behind you, all ready for the overtake, when it comes to national speed limit, bang it into second. I win.

I do that too Toby.. :lol::lol:

:lol: I can imagine. Your cars a lot faster than mine though so you can probably wait till they are level, give a smile and a wave, then boot it! I have to plant it before they reach my rear quarter lol

The figures are skewed. Apparently women CAUSE less accidents, but are INVOLVED in as many. Theres quite a difference. For example, a women pulled out in front of me, and i ploughed into her. However, since i crashed into her, it might be argued that i caused the accident.

So, we shall continue to pay inflated premiums, unfairly :cry:

H&S

You've seen the same vid then?

tractors that come bombing down a hill towards a mini roundabout you're on with no intention of waiting.

People who pull out in front of me on roundabouts, I'm sure that flashing orange thing does mean I'm pulling off! I could have T-boned about three people in the last two week.

This thread makes out people are sexist, but it is really true, woman pull out on you and just don't care, I wouldn't care if they pulled out and booted their car to get up to abit speed, but they generally make you slam on the brakes... but then again Men are bad in their owns ways, since i been driving it seems that Dads in their BMWs and Audis just love overtaking me in stupid places, fair enough if I was driving at like 40 along a country road, but i'm normally doing 50ish, and i get overtaken when there is a car on the other side of the road and i'm the one who has to slow down to let them into my space.

And finally being late for work and people are doing 40mph on a 60mph road, with no-overtaking.

And thieving bastards who steal fuel, I have just looked out of my window as i was writing this, and there was some people trying to nick fuel out of the cars! Twats! :evil:

1) HGVs trying to overtake each other on the motorway, forcing everyone else to cram into the outside lane.

2) Drink drivers

3) People driving while on the phone.

4) Chavs and wannabe gangsters who cruise around Manchester city centre in Saxos, Corsas and even Meganes with nothing but a loud stereo and a large coke can stuck on the end of their exhaust and then rev their engines thinking that it intimidates us.

5) People who think red lights are for other people.

6) People who sneak through on red lights at busy crossroads so that if you're turning right across them you don't have time to move before the traffic starts to move in the other direction.

7) People who are so ignorant on the road that when you're behind them with blue lights and sirens they still plod along at 20mph and don't notice you're trying to squeeze through.

8) People who can't park.

9) Drivers that have a "Princess on Board" sticker on their car or in fact any "humourous" bumper sticker. If it were down to me they'd have their cars confiscated and crushed.

10) Drivers who know they've been caught bang at it when speeding but will delay their court case for years over trivial details like the cop who stopped them wasn't wearing a tie etc

Oh so hgvs aren't allowed to overtake each other then? ..i'm guessing you've never driven anything larger than a car then?

The only thing that really gets me is idiots hog the middle lane

people that dont indicate off roundabouts... in fact people that dont indicate atall

foggys when its not foggy - theres no need its not cool u look silly especially when they're on a range rover and they have beams on aswell

people trying to race me at lights - again its not cool i dont have much money so I'm not going to rev and race and waste my petrol and points

people that try to push me to go faster over speed bumps - i care more about my car than you so i am not going to grope my exhaust on the bump

ah theres nothing quite like city centre driving :lol:

yeh i forgot one on my list, when youre driving down the a34 dual carriageway at a fair old speed making progress, then right at the bottom of the steepest hill you could imagine a lorry will pull out and try to overtake when it just cant carry the weight quick enough. sooo frustrating

people who indicate right to go straight on at a mini-roundabout. What's that all about? It's like they are trying to say "I'm not going to turn left" but it's just stupid, by rights they should indicate right all the time to inform me that they're not about to turn left?!? I see it happen far too often for it to be people making mistakes.

People love to pull out on me, it happens at least twice a day :roll:

shoes in the road...fucking shoes ?? how do you lose a shoe whilst driving ? i hit one on a national speed limit country road yesterday (fields on either side) and broke my splitter!

taxi's - thier job is drive drive around, but why are they so bad at doing just that ?

when people try and overtake me in a residential area when its early evening for example and I'm cruising at maybe 32ish - clearly thats not fast enough for some people.

its always fun to let people think that they are about to overtake you, then just drop a cog or two and they shit themselves when they find out they are just speeding on the wrong side of the road.

also agree with hayesey with the indications, the amount of times I've seen this and expected someone to make the turn that they are indictating to do, but it just never happens..
