ArabGaz Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 People (usually old folk) who drive at 40mph in a 60 zone, then carry on at 40mph when they drive through a 30 zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, a hundred times this. They're usually heading to/from the garden centre, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I've been behind learners who are doing so much wrong it's become pretty obvious that driving instructors need taken out with a machine gun. Last week I was behind someone who had went out with some family member and stuck the L plate on the motor. Shame neither of them had noticed it was dark and the reason everyone is flashing at you is you have no lights on. I've recently invested in a dashcam due to the terrible quality of driving I see daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect to yourself, I have noticed a trend that people with dashcams are more likely to be arsehole drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're in a traffic jam then fair enough, but I'm not taking evasive action just because you can't read road signs. I was driving on the freeway (motorway) in my truck in Perth last Thursday. The lane on my right was coming to an end due to roadworks and was merging with my lane about 100 yards ahead. There was a car about halfway to 3/4 of the way to the rear of my trailer that didn't seem to realise that their lane was coming to an end. Once they eventually realised, rather than brake and fall in behind me, they thought the best option would be to floor it despite it being glaringly obvious there was not going to be anywhere near enough room to pull off that manouvre. Needless to say, their attempt to squeeze in front of me was futile and resulted in us colliding. The best part of the story is it was an unmarked police car. We both pulled over to the hard shoulder, they turned their internal flashing lights on. I was waiting on them attempting to blame me but they couldn't have been any nicer. The driver got out holding his hands up in that apologetic way and the both of them jumped in my cab apologising and saying it was their fault. "No shit Sherlock, you should've been a detective" is what I didn't say but later on thought that would've been a good line at the time. I was going to phone them up and say it but I felt that the moment had been lost in those 3 hours. Here's the damage to their car for anyone remotely interested...

statts1976uk Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Drivers driving the wrong way in a motorway is definitely a great annoyance especially if they are towing a caravan! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-45869648 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musketeer Gripweed Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 1 - I come off the M9/M876 at Haggs most nights. I take great delight at driving at the same speed as a lorry that is heading straight towards Castlecary thus holding up all the smart arses who stay in the slip road to gain a 30 second advantage (if you are lucky) on the motorists who actually merge correctly. Arseholes. 2 - Speaking of Castlecary, traffic calming areas. People who think you have a 1000 yard stare when you actually do the courteous thing and give way to let them through are arseholes. I acknowledge them though, to try and make them feel guilty. It makes me feel better. 3 - Four way sets of temporary traffic lights where at least two of the junctions only actually get used about three times a week. 4 - Sunday morning cycle clubs. 5 - People who park in disabled spaces without a badge or people who would like to take their car into the supermarket if they could in general, you know the type.

I posted that before the news broke about the deaths, timing is quite clearly not my strong point today. It does raise questions about whether people of a certain age should be retaking driving tests or whether everyone should have some form of regular training.

Tremendous. I do the very same thing all the time. Drive at 50 when there's a stream of cars coming the other way, then when it's clear I go right up to 70/75 with the sole intention of making sure the cunt behind me, almost with his shaft in my anus he's that close, stays there.

D.A.F.C Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 People who indicate to go straight ahead at a roundabout. Why? People who don't indicate. (Correctly) Selfish drivers. BMW or Audi company car wankers. People who only go to the petrol station on the side where their petrol cap is. It can reach you fucktards.

D.A.F.C Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Slightly off topic but how satisfying is it when someone overtakes you at a stupid speed then you catch them up at traffic lights. Well well well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu_mfc Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 1. People who park against oncoming traffic especially at night and leave their lights on. 2. People who use indicators to indicate what they are going to do 0.0000001 secs after putting them on and cut you up on motorways going into gaps that are too small. 3. People who will leave 30 yds space driving past parked cars but 1/2 an inch with oncoming traffic. 4. Lane hoggers on the motorway. 5. The M8, been constant closures at night around Glasgow for ages now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 1. People who slow down to about 40mph for a speed camera (on a dual carriageway obviously) 2. People who slow down to about 40mph to turn off a dual carriageway instead of using the slowing lane to slow down. 3. People who sit in the fast lane at about 50mph when they're not overtaking 4. People who park across two spaces or generally like a c**t in busy car parks 5. Tailgating but special mention to arseholes who drive right up the arse of learner drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabGaz Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 5. Tailgating but special mention to arseholes who drive right up the arse of learner driversSpot on. Also arseholes who sound their horn after a learner driver has stalled the car at traffic lights. Those people should be forced to walk barefoot across a sea of lego for eternity.

Driving back to Inverness from a Brora game I got tailgated on a straight section by someone in a Fiat 500 when going 60/65 in my poxy Micra. Hit a bendy bit and I kept going at pretty much the same speed, the Fiat fell way behind until the next straight section when it caught up, engine screaming. Then another bendy section and repeat for the next half hour. Wasn't going to go over 65 with 6 points on my license so got bored and just pulled over in a layby to let them pass.
