Driving rants

I do hate this, forgot to put it in my rant. These cars, if not blown up, should be forcibly removed from the road and crushed and the driver left on the hard shoulder. Make your own way home mate.

Actually, half the 'fault' is often the idiots in the long single lane who haven't obeyed the sign that says 'Use Both Lanes and Merge'! Getting upset with the guy that is doing exactly as directed is daft imo! But it's pure selfishness on all the culprits parts that is the cause!
 
I drove up to Liverpoooooooooool last Saturday in the dark. Very quiet M6, car cruising at 60 in the middle lane with nothing else about as I approached in the inside lane. Pulled out, flashed him to see if he would pull over which he didn't so I pulled into the outside lane and as I went past without even looking he gave me the finger.

Oh how I wish my dark blue 3 series BMW was an unmarked police car!!
 
People who don't indicate at roundabouts, you may be clairvoyant us mere mortals need more subtle indication of your movements. Also just because the M25 has 4 lane this doesn't mean you can't use the inside lane even if you are doing 70!, why do they insist on sitting in the second lane meaning everyone has to use the 3rd lane to pass them even thought the inside lane is clear!!
 
People driving in the middle lane of motorway at 60mph whilst the inside lane is clear
 
Car drivers who dawdle along the motorway at 50 and then speed up when I try to pass them in my truck, leaving me in the middle lane, then slow down again when I pull back in, because they don't want to be overtaken by a truck. Oxygen thieves!!!
 
people who sit in the middle lane and outside lanes of motorways....because they are too lazy/ignorant/stupid to realise that the inside lane is clear and to move over to it.

The amount of times I've been tempted to undertake someone whilst travelling at 70mph on the inside is unreal.....then I realise it'd be ME that's in the wrong. I've taken to over taking and then going across all 3 lanes to use the inside lane again to make a point.......does it work? never. they still sit there dawdling along clogging up the countries motorways.
 
Mine is seeing people talking on their mobiles while driving. I always feel like speeding up and driving straight into the side of them!!

I agree with your sentiment but not quite sure about your solution :eek:

If it makes you feel like that then maybe you're not the best person to be behind the wheel of a car
 
Cyclists side by side on country lanes who do not move to single file when cars are behind is my number one. I could write a book on it though, I am an angry motorist most of the time.
 
Prats who don't used their handbrakes when sitting at a set of traffic lights, especially when it's dark and piddling down with rain.
Upper rear brake lights have the same wattage bulbs as rear fog lights and they are just as bright.
Does my head in to be sitting right behind somebody with their upper rear brake like blinding me.

There is a reason we do that and it's because of inconsiderate/impatient drivers. And the Highway Code says it's OK to do so.
