Angry Motorists - Aaargh!!

Sorry, worse than cyclists, worse than delivery bikes, worse than invalid electric thingies...

1. Drivers that hog the middle lane when theres no one on the L/H lane - evidently they have a right to drive in that lane because 5 mile in front theres a car in the L/H lane thats doing 1mph less than them

2. People that drive in the rain with their rear fog lights turned on (apart from the fact its illegal, its f***ing blinding)

3. People turning right that position their car either on the left or diagonally so that no one can pass to the left while they wait for a gap in the traffic

4. People that see a policecar on the motorway thats doing its typical 60mph and that refuse to pass it at more than 65mph

5. People that just can't parallel park even though a white van has just pulled out and they're trying to park a mini

6. People that insist on engaging the handbrake at traffic lights (on the flat) and then take 5mins once the lights have gone green to select 1st gear, disengage handbrake and pull off (just as the lights go back to red)

7. People with kids in the back and the kids aren't wearing safety belts

8. People with scuba kits in their car while I'm at work

And...

1. Becuase they were told the middle lane is for "faster" driving, feck the fact that they're the only ones on the road. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Bloody tractor drivers who insist on pulling out on you forcing you to break then travelling for miles dropping crud all over the road, and leaving you secure in the knowledge that they can't make a profit yet your bloody taxes are paying for them to hold you up!!!

Also bloody ignorant idiots who stop right on the brow of a hill in front of you when you are doing a blue light run and can't get past.

And rubber-neckers - what the bloody hell is that all about????

Didn't you know that the police do it on purpose.

We used to play "crocodile" when I was on traffic - which was to do just that on the A1 and see how big a tail you could get.

Also played car snooker a few times. Yellow and pink always were the hardest cars to get.

People who see a speed camera in a 40mph zone, panic, and slow down to 30mph.
