Random Irritations

But the Aborigines have always fought to get their land back, why shouldn't a native protest.
Because they (Australia) have been a sovereign self governing state for over 120 years. King Charles has no real executive power over them or any of their domestic policies.
 
E-bikes and scooters.

They are banned on underground trains due to fire risk .. the amount that try it and we have to hold the service for them to be removed

Thing is bikes you could understand when they were bikes people wouldn't fancy the long ride , but these are doing the work
 
I really dislike drivers who don't use slip roads correctly. IE get up to speed and merge. Don't get up to say 30 mph on a 50 mph road and then attempt to join.

Had that on the way to work. We were in lane 1 with no room to our right to move across and a car comes flying up the slip road hell bent on diving straight on despite the hash lines and nearly took the back of the car out as he simply came on and then beeped and flashed as though we had stayed there deliberately. No one pays attention to the lines or slow down to merge sensibly

I disagree only on the point of "least law abiding".
Thousand and thousands of motorists exceeding the maximum permitted speed every day. I think motorists win that accolade.
