Tailgaters...

Driving up my trumpet will not make me go any faster, in fact it makes me go slower. Don't think the angry bloke in the Saab appreciated going 15mph in a 30.

It's just dangerous and there is no need for it. Speed limits are there for a reason.

More than anything, to the point where I go close to them, is cyclists riding a good Metre in the road, 2,3 even 4 abreast, when there's a dedicated cycle lane,

Again cyclists, as a hgv technician I drive trucks, trailers, etc , and when your at a set of lights, junction what ever, a cyclist pulls right up your nearside, not a problem in a car, but 5ft plus in the air, there invisible, and they wonder why they nearly end up under the vehicle , more so when you have a left signal on, but out wide to the off side to clear the kerb,

Aggggh rant done lol

Yeah. When a cyclist finishes up under a heavy turning left, the heavy driver may, or may not, have seen the cyclist. We can be pretty sure that the  cyclist saw the heavy though!

How about people who cut corners when turning into a road? nearly had my drivers side ripped off many a time by these morons coming into my side of the road approaching a junction.

The odd driver in front of you who brakes everytime a car passes it on the other side of the road.

 

When it's your right of way, someone 'gambles' pulling out from behind a parked car (assuming nothing is coming on the other side of the road) and you nearly collide. Happens way too often

 

 

People that block entrance/exits when in traffic/traffic lights and cause a queue of cars on the other side of the road

You took a blunt knife to a gun fight lol. If you ever see a merc with one letter and two numbers on the left and amg on the other side of the boot lid, leave itI

 

I will say this wasen't intentionally playing, just accelerating on a short slip road, and he just out accelerated me, Blunt knife it felt like he had a gunship and I had a flint rock

Sitting at an angle in turning boxes blocking the box and lane of moving traffic

The need to firstly turn in the opposite direction to the junction you need to take

Defending the slip road that has become lane 1 to the death so no one can get into it for the approaching junction, then moving over to carry on up the road. WHY?

People that cross onto my side of the road on bends when there is just no need to.

 

People crossing onto my side of the road while over taking causing me to swerve.

 

Any bus drivers.

 

Combo style van drivers with a mug on the dash board smoking roll ups. Nothing really wrong with it but I find it frightfully common.

 

Most of the people that live near to where I work...in South East London.

 

Motorcyclists that crawl round everybody at the traffic lights to be at the front, only to not be able to pull away quickly enough when the lights change causing me to over take them.

 

Apart from that, i'm really quite chilled on the road....

definately people on their mobiles while driving and people parking next to you in a nearly empty car park

OK I have mentioned the 'Road Captains', but actually there is something even worse - tractors!  I hate tractors on the road, trundling along at 15 mph.  Wide a high and dangerous to pass.  Now if these were pulling out of one field, driving a few yards along the road and then pulling into another field, fair enough, but some of them drive for mile after mile.  Really winds me up.

People who think my xenons are on high beam and put their lights on high. Welcome to the 21st century guys, light are bright nowadays.

Hi CitigoAli, you are fit. Just thought I would say.

Cyclists not using the cycle lane when there is one, and cyclist not checking before moving out of the bus/cycle lane into the "normal" lane. (can anyone tell I nearly knocked off a cyclist this morning )

EDIT: I forgot a couple!

I really dislike the cycle box at junctions, why put them there?!? The cyclist is only going to slow drivers down to the extent where some feel the need to move to the other side of the road to go around them, thus causing more danger than if the cycle box was left to just the side of the road.

Cyclist on pavements.

I also deteste middle lane hoggers, parents driving their kids to school when it is half a mile up the road, people with poor lane deiscpline (I except that it's often down to not knowing where you are going) People who don't plan their route when they don't know where they are going.

But the thing I hate more than anything else..... arrogant drivers (doesn't matter what they are in charge of) who think they have more right to be on the road than others and treat other road users with little or no respect.

Hi CitigoAli, you are fit. Just thought I would say.

 Why thank you kind sir!

Well, I was deliberately not being as sexist as to say that, but since someone else has, I'll say that I think your mind is as beautiful as your body.

Middle lane hogs.

Cars without indicators.

Drivers on a mobile phone.

People driving up my chuff.

Base spec premium car drivers with a chip on their shoulder.

Range Rover Sports, Cayennes etc... with bling wheels and stupid (cheap) private plates to hide the fact they are 5+ years old. No you are not flash, you just look like a berk.

I was on the m25 a few weeks ago and there was a black rolls royce phantom same as simon cowells with the reg DAZ 657...........

In no particular order:

1) People that don't/won't use their indicators.........Contrary to popular belief I DO NOT have a crystal ball!

2) Inappropriate use of lights. READ and UNDERSTAND your Highway Code!

3) Impatient morons that use the hatched area in the middle of a single carriageway as their own personal lane for turning right.

4) People that think the cycle zone across the carriageway at junctions is their own personal starting grid.

5) Lane hoggers.

6) Mobile phone users: These are probably the most dangerous and unpredictable drivers on the roads.

7) Speed bumps.

Aw, you've burst their bubble now. Lol!

ROTFL!  It is not me, but I have a very similar figure, am blonde and I have to say have finer features.  Just don't post pictures of myself anywhere on the web for security reasons.

And I am not George Clooney....

And I'm not Jonny Bravo!

And I am not George Clooney....

I am in fact a pint of Coke typing away from a pub car park :p

Oh What, I was just telling everyone Jonny bravo was typing on the same forum as me. Now I look silly!

How does that make saying that Ali's mind is as beautiful as Kate Murphy's (Body of Proof) body less of a compliment?

 

Oh and I agree about posting pictures of myself. I do allow others to do so, as long as my real name isn't immediately associated with the picture.
