Renton 20421 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Now I've started driving to work because I can no longer face the metro, I'm becoming stressed about what complete and utter selfish BASTARDS other drivers are! Anyway, its not doing my blood pressure any good. So what pisses you most off about other people's driving? For me it's the following top 3. 1) People who change lanes to get ahead in the queue. You selfish wankers! Every morning you see them on the Coast road/Cradlewell bypass/Jesmond road, weaving in and out the traffic queue, to make up a few seconds. There's alway some mug that lets them in, otherwise they force themselves in. The result? Even more delays for the rest of us. 2) People who stop on box junctions. Do you know how to fucking drive, you crettin? Admittedly, it's easy to do, but come on, some people are serial offenders, and they end up causing more chaos for other drivers and pedestrians alike. 3) People tailgating me. Fuck of and die you aresholes! Do you realise if I need to do an emergency stop you will rear end me, you bastards? I swear to God I'm going to add some 6 foot spikes to my rear bumper. But then if you leave too much space, some wanker will nick in and steal your space, see point one. Ahh, that's better, needed to get that off my chest. Anybody got any other pet hates, or, more importantly, anyone do any of the above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, if more people were less selfish it would benefit all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Ah Renton, we drive the same road into work every morning so I feel your pain on this one. Lane changers are an arse like, especially the one's who constantly do it. I come off at the Corner House so need to get in the left hand lane quite early, I usually stay in the left hand lane for most of the Coast Road actually as I've noticed a lot of people autmotically sit in the fast lane making the left hand lane the quickest sometimes. I also hate it when I get to the Chilli Road slip road where it should be one in and one out and when you've let someone out the person behind thinks they can come out too. I'm not a fucking charity.

Smooth Operator 10 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Now that's just brains more than arseholeism i think, i once jumped a 13 mile queue on the way to Newquay by going down the fast lane to the roundabout causing the tailbacks and just went round twice and came off at the right exit which from then on was clear all the way to the town centre.

Bastard! Why don't we all do it, and create complete gridlock in the process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Newquay - Newport mix up methinks. Once you light Renton's fuse I think he just lets rip! Anyway, I agree about the twats who get on the slip road to come off the other side. You bunch of bastids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 People (mainly women) who can't work out what on earth either the inside lane or the outside lane is for on the motorway. It's as if they sit in the middle lane thinking "well, I can't go wrong if I'm in the middle can I". You see them pull off the slip lane and go straight for the middle lane, even if there is about 20 miles of clear road on the inside lane. If they come up behind something in the middle lane going slower than them, they'll slow right down until that vehicle pulls over again, before speeding up and overtaking them. What's the fucking point? I have no problem with people weaving lanes to get ahead of traffic though; at least their using a bit of common sense. If every driver just used a little bit more thought process then you wouldn't end up with the huge queue in the first place. On the whole though, the majority of drivers are ok. You just get a few stupid/crap/thoughtless ones who ruin the journey for the rest of us. Ban women from motorways, that's what I say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short journeys around town seem to be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 42647 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Can't stand it when women abandon their car in the middle of a roundabout, and run and stand on the roundabout and look at the mayhem they've caused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6581 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Anywhere where lane discipline is required seems to cause them massive confusion to be honest. I was giving a woman directions once and told her to to cross over a roundabout. "which lane do i need to be in" she asked me. "The one that has the arrow painted in the direction you want to go" was my response. "Oh I don't look at what's painted on the road, I normally just guess..."
