This. Slimy hypocritical horrible bastards the lot of em.

[boltonboris]

People who can see you driving towards them but still decide to step in the road anyway. And who remonstrate with you like its your fault.

Ah no. Not as bad as those who step out into the road and, on seeing you approaching in your car, slow down as they cross. For nothing more than to create as tense situation. Then remonstrate with you like it's your fault.

Neither are as bad as women who push the edge of a pram into the road, forcing the decision on you.. Do you stop and let them go? Or do you kill a small child?

I don't think either are as bad as drivers trying to turn right onto a busy main road who pull out halfway onto the road blocking traffic in one direction and then continually edge out onto the other side forcing that traffic to stop to let them in.

You don't own the fooking road, you clueless nice people. Its not your right of way. Show some goddamn patience.

Have we become so impatient as drivers that it's even an option? They hardly do it on motorways or A roads.

It was a joke... I never let them go!

That was another joke..

It just annoys me that's all.. What if the driver wasn't concentrating.. A pram should never be hanging over the pavement and into the road. The parent is gambling with the life of their beloved child in order to get across a road more quickly than needs be.. Quite often it's near a crossing too, just walk the extra few yards and wait!

[Lord Kangana]

I'm sorry, you're all wrong...

The two worst traffic offences are:

1) Not understanding that a parked car on your side of the road is your hazard. Thats your hazard, as in yours. Therefore its up to you to wait.

and

2) If you find you are using your brakes a lot on the motorway, might I suggest lifting your foot off the f*cking accelerator once in a f*cking while you brain dead tw*t. It helps not driving 4.7cm from the car in front, and realising that that group of cars in front aren't going to suddenly gain 30mph when you reach them.

Not that either of these bother me at all, purely scientific.

Driving turns normal folk into animals. I live in a residential area of quiet and narrow roads. The other day a car came round a corner on two wheels and hurtled down the road at crazy speed. "Young lout, dxckhead etc" was my first thought. As it passed me I glared at the driver...... a grey-haired old woman of pensioner status who had an expression more fitting to Lewis Hamilton on her bespectacled face than that of any driver who actually gave a fxck .

Then they shouldn't be driving.

The majority of drivers, the majority of cyclists and the majority of pedestrians are ignorant, arrogant or thick. Or all three. All because they're doing something they see as a necessity. I often just count the number of anti-social or illegal instances on the road to and from work. It's a 35 mile trip consisting of motorway, A roads and small roads. On average I see around 30 instances. The record is 82.

Most common is tailgating, and of course sitting in a lane designed for overtaking without anyone to overtake anywhere near them, followed by not indicating when turning. Next is not using a traffic filter for it's intended purpose, which often results in one car mounting the pavement just to get one car length in front. Up there are cyclists not using empty cycle lanes in favour of holding traffic up on a road which, had it not been for the cycle lane, would be wide enough for cars to pass. And cyclists jumping red lights (more motorists are doing this now). Then you get the aforementioned pedestrians risking life with oncoming traffic.

And those are just the most common ones. I'm half tempted to wire up a camera in the car, and send the footage in to the cops. But then it's me who's the bad man. I know someone who set up a website doing this as a cyclist in Manchester. You should see the abuse he gets via email.

You say it like her appearance is a surprise. Idiocy has no set demographic. I often find it's middle aged blokes who are worst, followed by young girls. But as I said, the range of idiots on the road is diverse.

Oh, and I don't profess to be the perfect driver. But I can use the road knowing that any accident will not be my fault, because I'm aware of my surroundings, and have consideration for others.

Should you really be typing all this on your laptop whilst you're drivng?

[ohjimmyjimmy]

People who pull out from the left when you're about ten yards away from them, when there's no other car behind you, they can see there's no other car behind you, all they have to do is wait another 5 seconds, but noooo...cue much screaming and shouting of words that the nipper will no doubt be repeating in front of her grandma any time soon.

I've never had an accident; but I've seen loads in my rear view mirror..............................................

Many moons ago a similar incident occurred when with my 2 in the back seat.

I muttered and said "some people shouldn't be allowed to drive". Son #1 said "do you mean like Nana ?" (Nana doesn't drive, never has done)

"No ... no, not like Nana"

" oh, you mean like bloody morons ?!?!"

Not sure if "angry" is the correct word, (OK, so why post here then?) more "perplexed".

We still have milk doorstep delivered. The service has dived, cost limitations I expect, but there's a tipping point when even I will say 'forget it'.

However, the milkie arrives for payment every couple of weeks or so. We may be out & it can add up a bit, but hey .... .

Whenever he arives the bill is a little less than £10, £20 if we missed each other last time. We always go through the same palaver .... he asks for (say) "£9.88 please" ... I go to get some some cash. Give him a £10 note and he always ... fckg always ... is unprepared for this & has to rummage around his bag to find 12p ! Why ??

The way our house is set there's no way to know who's rung the bell until I open it. So arriving there with cash in hand isn't an option.

So, yesterday he came ... same pantomime, except when he said "9.88" I said "OK, I'll pay you with a tenner" and went to get one.

I arrived hoping, rather than expecting, to see him with 12p in his hand. He did have (!!!!!) ... well, almost. He actually had £10 and 12p in his hand. "Oh .... you normally pay with a £20 "

I suppose it's a start.

feck me, suddenly all my problems seems so trivial...

salad-fondling old ladies..

today I watched in amazement (in Aldi) as a grizzled old woman picked up, squeezed, sniffed and fondled with cat-food stained fingers EVERY lettuce in the display before dropping one in her basket... eugh...

Did she work for the police identi-kit department?
