Coming home from work lately I've noticed that people are starting to take the left hand lane on a roundabout to go right round to the third exit? This really psses me off because I have to do a 'double take' in my nearside mirror in case one of them is steaming up the inside as I'm bearing left to the exit, very dangerous.

It made me think about the worst driving trends that really bug me off and wondered what some of you have noticed. Here's my top 5:-

1. Left hand lane all the way round the roundabout as above.
2. Cars sitting in the third motorway lane at 65 with nothing else on the road.
3. Cars sitting in the middle motorway lane etc.
4. Cars waiting to come out of a side road/onto a roundabout, see you coming, and pull out anyway. ('Must get in front of the Monaro' syndrome I call it)
5. Car behind driving 5 thou" from my parking sensors at 70mph. I'm sure they're not all trying to read the Monaro name plate?!

Any more?.....

people on a main road in a traffic jam who block all the side exits so you end up sitting there as long as they do


Reminded me of another one.... people who stop on yellow hatch lines blocking every road in every direction, normally on the Leisure Centre roundabout in Windsor!

I can see people getting a bit stressed, I'm thinking I probably shouldn't have started this thread
