andrew7 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 1. People who drive along with yellow dayglow jackets on their rear shelf. 2. Non-police or emergency people who wear dayglow jacket while driving. 3. People who drive in the middle lane of a motorway when their is nothing in the inside lane. 4. People who sit on their footbrake in traffic jams at night... 5. People who turn into a petrol station and then suddenly stop with half their car stuck into the main road, while they are deciding which pump to fill up at... 6. People who tear up to give ways at road junctions at a speed as if they are expecting no traffic to be on the main road.... 7. Tailgaters.... Non motoring peeves- 8. Software writers who create what should be really useful programs, but write instructions in a language that is only understood by less that 5% of computer users... So what are your pet peeves?........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 5. People who turn into a petrol station and then suddenly stop with half their car stuck into the main road, while they are deciding which pump to fill up at... that one - people tend to drive in really slowly - it can knock a quarter minute off my 'get-to-work' time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gzaerojon Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 that one - people tend to drive in really slowly - it can knock a quarter minute off my 'get-to-work' time or when they stop at the first pump in a row of 3 empty pumps blocking the other 2 Bast@rds!!

Homer Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 From your list: 3. People who drive in the middle lane of a motorway when their is nothing in the inside lane. 7. Tailgaters.... Middle lane drivers wind me up, if its during rush hour I always make a habit of slowly undertaking them. Can do this to 100's of cars a day, without breaking the limit or the slightest danger to road users. I swear 99% of them don't even register "the traffic on the left is moving faster - time to move over".... Tailgaters - I want to kill them all! This is the ONLY thing that really winds me up on the road. When I was younger it just used to make me drive faster or aggressively, but since owning the Supra tailgaters mean 'go slow'. If I get one now I drive a few mph below the speed limit in sub 60mph zones. If its main road and the lane clears for a good distance then I hoof it away, the type of people that do this always drive shit cars so they never catch up. 8. Software writers who create what should be really useful programs, but write instructions in a language that is only understood by less that 5% of computer users... Difficult to comment, I'm one of the 5% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I was following some twat today who pulled into the outside lane infront of me, drove about 100 yards as they were overtaking someone, noticed the traffic infront was slowing, braked hard, let the car she was overtaking undertake her, then crept back into the inside lane as it was moving quicker! (albeit very slowly). Thus forcing me to jam on my brakes hard as she'd jumped into the gap I'd left and then unexpectantly reversed her overtaking manovure on a dual carridgway, dumb bitch.

RedM Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I can top that. Guy in an Audi, middle lane heading into Leeds. Slow lane moving faster and I always use the slow lane in the morning as I only go one junction. Anyway, slow lane are overtaking him so what does he do? If you answered 'he moves into that lane' you'd be wrong. He straddled the line between lanes meaning two lanes had to go as fast as him.

Supragal Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Number 3 OMG. WHY aren't these people being pulled over by the traffic police and those new special ones that aren't police but pretend to be??? I saw middle laners almost NEXT to police/traffic cars last weekend, cruising along, at no point did they stop them or even indicate to them that they should NOT be in that BLOOMIN lane. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRalphMan Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 1) - People who drive with their front fogs on.. Does it make you look cool, I don't think so. 2) - People who drive with their front fogs on in the rain.. grrr 3) - People who drive with their rear fogs on, when it was slightly foggy about two weeks ago.. 4) - Middle lane drivers on an empty road.. 5) - People doing 5mph faster then the middle lane is and pull out in front of me and try to overtake. 6) - People who tailgate while I'm going through a 30 limit. 7) - People having their rear wiper on in the rain.. (Don't know why but it really bugs me) 8) - Black Taxi Cabs. 9) - People who cut in at a junction at the last minute 10) - The two scooters that hum up and down my road all the bloody time. 11) - People who cannot work out that if the line of parked cars is on their side they should be giving way. 12) - Car park spaces that are too small 13) - People who park in a space and put their indicators on. Looking like their looking to pull out. 14) - People who I let out of a side road and are not paying attention. Then it's do I stop and let them go or carry on hoping they didn't just notice and will pull out on me. 15) - Cars that have one headlight out on alignment. 16) - People who don't know who to use a mini roundabout.. Lets all stop and wait for someone else to go. 17) - People who park where they shouldn't (Zigzag lines on a crossing, lets hope it's one of their family that get mown down when the car doesn't see someone on the crossing!!). I'd better stop before I pop a vein or something.. Have a nice day everyone... Tomorrow my view on the use of cattle prods.. Keep safe..
