I know the standard jokey response to this used to be BMW drivers are inconsiderate etc, but I really do think that Peugeot drivers are by far and away the worst out there. Especially the 307 and 206...

What do you guys think?

Depends on your definition of bad.

IMO very old, slow, dithery drivers on the way to the golf club are the worst so you'd have to say Chimaera's.

Sorry, I meant Honda's.

I think you may not get very far with this on this forum.....more likely to get a response on General Gassing, although you're a brave man to put a thread with the words 'worst driver' and 'BMW' in the same sentence on GG....

Good luck....

Nissan Micra drivers. Be it young or old, man or woman, they have no idea of driving and will do thier up most to annoy the crap out of you if you get stuck behind them.

Oiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll plump for any model of people carrier or 4x4 - there's a reason people buy these for their improved view - it's cos they don't know how to look

I dread encountering Mercs, as they're invariably driven in a slow and pompous manner. The worst driven model is the silver E-Class estate (of which there are thousands in Surrey), but even the hot models are usually driven at glacial speed. The driver usually has his/her nose too high in the air to notice the hoi polloi trying to get past at most uncivilised speeds.

Micras.

And anyone on here who's read my posts over the last few months will know my views on Volkswagens.... All I'll say is, don't get me started!!

Note for Tam Lin: no no, I promise not to rant.

Not me whenever I torture myself in my Mum's Micra, I indicated very safely to get into the outside lane to keep up with a Cerbera!

The whine of the poxy one litre almost supressed the noise of the Cerb's exhaust!

Truly hateful cars it almost make me realise why people drive them so bad as you can feel your will to live ebbing away every moment your driving...

Toyota Land Cruiser, never seen one in this country doing anything else but the school run. Usually with only one very small child in the back who needs to be helped down by the parent. Whilst parking 2 abreast right outside the school blocking the road for everyone else, half on the zig-zag markings half on the zebra crossing.

I once had a Micra as a courtsey car (oxymoron for a start).

If you drive them like you stole them then they're fine and they handled speed humps brilliantly, never had to slow down at all

Handbrake was a little weak, you really had to give it a sharo hard pull to get the back end out.
