Cints who just stop on a main road because someone is waiting to pull out of a give way. Driving through Skinflats today and a c**t done this not once but twice, from 40 mph down to a stop to let somecunt pull out. Madness. Possibly the same c**t I was stuck behind when I was trying to get up Tryst Rd. Going up the stretch outside Stenny's ground, from Tim Hortons to the end of the houses, stopped every time someone was driving down the other way, until they were past. Obviously believed her Ford Galaxy is the size of the actual galaxy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to scrape the kerb on both sides of the road during the 10mins he was in front of us. Is that post overtake on the return to the left lane or awful lane discipline? Would say potentially pished? Usually police on the way into Onich as well so they probably got a bit lucky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they are great drivers but in fact they could be cause of bigger accidents. I am uncertain about how to deal with them. machinegunning or beheading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Is it possible to take a Speed\Motorway Driving Awareness course if residing in Scotland but the offence was committed in England (if offered as an alternative to a points endorsement plus fine)? The official U.K. Road Offender Education UKROed) website is just hopeless. Asking for a friend, Cheers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishBhoy Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) People that sit in heavy traffic on the motorway, constantly changing lanes trying to second guess which lane is going to move quicker. The roadworks on the M8 in Glasgow have really brought these people out the woodwork, guys changing lanes 4 or 5 times without realising that a big reason for the traffic moving so slowly is because of people constantly changing lanes. It is incredibly petty, but there’s not many things more satisfying than seeing someone infront of you indicate into another lane, only for the lane you are in to start moving faster and you get to watch them fade in to the distance, fully in the knowledge that they are absolutely spewing. Extra points if you see them indicating back into the lane they had already been in, about 15 cars behind where they had been.

Empty It Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 guys changing lanes 4 or 5 times without realising that a big reason for the traffic moving so slowly is because of people constantly changing lanes. They're well aware that their lane hopping is a major reason as to why traffic builds up, the simple fact is they're ignorant c***s who don't care aslong as they get to their destination 30 seconds quicker because they're more important than everyone else. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t get it. Literally every car in every lane is crawling along at 8-10mph, and you’ve got people either darting in to a gap in the adjacent lane, or sitting with their indicator on hoping someone lets them in. I’m usually quite a courteous driver and will always allow cars to merge and leave a gap for cars joining the motorway etc.. But if I’m sitting in heavy traffic that is crawling along at a snails pace, and I see someone sitting with their indicator on trying to get in to the lane I’m in, I don’t leave a space. I just sit there thinking to myself what on earth has prompted this driver to suddenly decide ‘I need to change lanes’. There’s a section of road where the M74 ends and the M8 starts, just at the junction for the M77, where you get drivers who are absolutely desperate to get into the outside lane. Literally the minute the solid white line ends they are straight into the outside lane wether they are overtaking another car or not. This is actually good for me, as the lane I am in continues at a steady pace whilst the outside lane is nose to bumper. These people probably drive that section of road multiple times a week and still haven’t realised that the reason they are sitting at a complete standstill is because of people doing exactly what they have just done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Guy I front of me on a country road (mostly 2 way) last night going at 30-35 but not slowing down for 60 degree corners and swerving into the other side of the road at them. Finally sped up to 50 when he saw a 50 sign. Dick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
