Since when have trousers at half mast been a fashion thing? The amount of school kids (13-16 age) in trousers like this is baffling. My god you'd have got ripped to shreds in my day dressing like this.
Adults are wearing them like that as well. You can buy deliberately half mast trousers now. It's been around a for a year or so, could be earlier but I am a long way from fashion so it took me a while to notice. It does look rubbish though, maybe that is an age thingSince when have trousers at half mast been a fashion thing? The amount of school kids (13-16 age) in trousers like this is baffling.

It worries me that you have such a complete lack of knowledge of how to negotiate a roundabout. I think this is one of those where if you don’t know the answer, you are the problem.I know you're a driving instructor so don't jump down my throat, but I find it amazing that using a round a bout correctly is not taught. The only thing I can remember being told, many many years ago when I learnt to drive was that " you do not have to signal to leave a round a bout as there is only one way off " . Surely utter rubbish, but I quote it to anyone who cares to listen.
When should you indicate to turn right? When you get to that point should you indicate left? Two lanes as you approach the round a bout. You are going straight on, but there is a left turn immediately as you enter the rab. Which lane should you be in? If you are turning right should you be in the outside lane?
It's a minefield, and I admit to make a hash of things....sometimes.

I'm seeing some correlation thereIs he not a supermarket delivery driver??
The one that makes me chuckle every time is the overtaking on a single carriageway road..On the subject of the highway code.
When overtaking on a motorway I always thought it was the norm to put your indicator on as a signal you're intending to overtake, but only change lanes when it's clear and safe to do so.
These days it's more indicate as a signal that you're just going to change lanes anyway, and if you don't get out of my way I'm going to shout and screamm at you for not getting out of my way ??

Many times I see people signal right to pull out and then signal left to cone back in.
What's the point of the left signal?
Do you think I think you're going to stay on the wrong side of the road indefinitely?
Well given the number of drivers that think it ok to undertake, I’m always (at least often on motorways or dual carriageways) going to indicate that I’m coming in once I’ve passed someone - and I can see them in the middle of my rear view mirror (as I was taught)The one that makes me chuckle every time is the overtaking on a single carriageway road..

On motorways and DCs - Yes....you're changing lane.Well given the number of drivers that think it ok to undertake, I’m always (at least often on motorways or dual carriageways) going to indicate that I’m coming in once I’ve passed someone - and I can see them in the middle of my rear view mirror (as I was taught)
With the number of drivers who cruise along like automatons on the motorways, indicating to join from the slip road doesn't do any harm, just to focus their attention if you're coming on - especially if it's busy.Or the people on a slip road to join a dual carriageway indicate right
Is it not the case now that in some cars with the lane detection thingy, don't know what it's called, you have to signal or the car will fight you if you try to cross back over the line, I know my mates top of range xc60 does this, I could be talking complete bollocks of course !The one that makes me chuckle every time is the overtaking on a single carriageway road..

Even on its lowest setting, my Mazdarati is just like that.Is it not the case now that in some cars with the lane detection thingy, don't know what it's called, you have to signal or the car will fight you if you try to cross back over the line, I know my mates top of range xc60 does this, I could be talking complete bollocks of course !
