Yea those *****! About 6 months ago in my Mondeo some idiot dived in 2 cars in front of me, just as a lorry had to break hard, and just as I'd kindly let a Micra in in front of me which reduced my safety gap......... slammed my anchors on and managed to gently touch her Micra, I could have stopped completely but I knew that a motobike had just moved in behind me a few seconds earlier! Gave her a gentle "turbo-boost" then followed her and signalled to pull over off the busy A19 - we both checked bumpers and all was okay, she realised it was just unlucky timing that I'd just let her in just as some **** caused everyone to brake

All of the above points in this thread plus...

Cyclists who refuse to use the MUCH safer cycle lane on the other side of the kerb!!! It's there for a damn good reason!!!

ANY car driving under 65mph on a 70mph road - give them tickets for not driving close enough to the speed limit - absolutely ridiculous that our middle/outside lanes on motorways get clogged up with lorries having to overtake cars!

Fags/litter being thrown out.

How come you smokers are allowed to light-up and smoke while driving yet I can get taken to court for biting an apple or taking a quick drink???!!!

Lorries travelling at almost the SAME speed trying to overtake each other, slowing us all down in the outside lane!
