Thought i would start a thread for idiots you see doing stupid things from day to day.


Dropping my wife off at work this morning we overtook a woman on a bike with a dog on a lead in the middle of the road.... wearing headphones, so oblivious... the road... the A82 the main route between Inverness and Fortwilliam.


the mind boggles

Saw a classic today in the gym.
A women was trying to do cable extensions with a strap tied around her foot but she had the cable at the top of the machine instead of the bottom and her leg shot up in the air and she couldn't reach her foot.
I went across and got her foot out whilst another guy lifted her up,very funny.
 
Just seen an Old Woman do an 8-9 point turn to get out of a disabled bay in the hospital car park, really shouldn't be driving on the public highway.

How stupid can you get???
Anybody knows a dogs hearing is much more acute than ours.
Why on earth would it need headphones?
 
Someone walking down the M1 on the hard shoulder at 11pm last night. He was not a highway worker thats for sure. Called the police to let them know, thankfully it had already been called in.
 
Bunch of school kids this morning walking straight across a side road without even looking.

2 mins later on said school run, seeing one idiot park on the marked yellow lines, with a sign saying "no parking/dropping off here" to drop off their two sprogs. And then lean out of the window for a chat with another parent whilst cars started tailing up behind.


This thread could become an absolute forum classic.
 
Walking home from work tonight and waiting at a crossing for the light to change....

Goes to red, nearest car stops so I start to cross.... second car floors it and overtakes the car that had stopped, runs the red light.... misses me! :D I haven't even finished swearing at him when the stupid man in the first car (the one that stopped) decides to go again. He runs the red light, long after it changed and the green man was on. Two utter morons.
 
Going on my lunch break to find a very drunk gent trying to open my locked car.

He was adamant it was his taxi home:thup:

oh Stoke.
 
Stupidly went out in my car around the home school run.

There was numptyism a-plenty with pillocks driving right up to the car they were following and blocking side roads so as others trying to cross the main road turning right were unable to do so.

Not to mention hoards of other complete spanners, who when turning right, straddled the middle of the T junction wide enough for two vehicles thus blocking people behind them who could otherwise have turned left and been on their way.

Then returned home only to see The High Spanner, Trump, on a TV programme.

I am working in Leeds at the minute and saw a hipster chap on his bicycle decide that red lights are not meant for his planet saving cyclonazi-ing.... only to be knocked off by a BUS that, luckily for him, was turning from a side road quite slowly.
I see this more and more in Glasgow as well, cyclists thinking the rules of the road dont apply to them. Matter of time before there is a fatality on Queen Street.

At which point there will be a campaign to ban the buses because they are dangerous and it couldn't possibly be the cyclists' fault……. :angry:
