another 1 for JR

John, is there a law which says that to impede the flow of traffic is a nono, I seem to remember there was, the amount of sunday drivers carrying their habits over to weekdays seems to be on the increase.

In a similar vein - how about doing something about all those impatient klutzes who block the yellow boxes in the morning rush, just making life worse for everyone?

I saw someone who obviously had got pissed off with this on the M11, he undertook them both up the hard shoulder pulled out in front of the one being overtaken and slowed right down....the mad f****r had 2 kids in the car as well

Wouldn't worry Campbell, my T5 is the perfect complement to my Griffith and I find it quite funny watching guys like MAJORITY (excuse shouting) disappear in the rear-view mirror of my turbocharged shed-on-wheels! No doubt he also thinks Skodas are made in the communist block! Rich

Whats all this about Volvo's OK I wouldn't go and buy a bog standard one meself but we have just got two (T5's) at work and are due another one in a few months, they are much better than the Mondeo's we had in the past. Anyway back to the original thread, wilful or unneccesary obstruction springs to mind, other than that if they are driving vey slow they usually get a pull to see if they are drunk

Reminds me of a guy in a 405 I passed one morning driving through Windsor Great Park. He was behind a slow Metro, I passed them both coming out of Windsor on a bone dry, straightish bit, didn't go more than 60/70. He flashed his lights and got cross with me, usual old-geezer stuff. Anyway, t'was a cold morning and and wet bits were icey - a mile on there is a dip in the road and a bit of water collects in the verge. I always drive towards the centre anyway, and I knew this patch - as I went over it at 50ish I realised I had zero grip for about a second - black ice. I was 1/4 mile ahead of the Metro/405 by this time, but they were coming down the hill towards this spot. I put my hazards on and braked (on the way up the hill after the icey spot, on a dry bit) to warn them. Anyway, I slowed right down and saw the metro do what I did - kinda glide over the ice. Mr 405 was close behind the metro and lost it, I saw his car swinging left/right/left/right and into the ditch. It's not a deep ditch, more of a big verge with a hedge 6 feet away from the road so I don't think he hurt himself, anyway, I've never laughed so much in ages. I do drive more slowly over that wet bit now though! Trefor/.
