One single thing that makes you think "knob" Vol 2
Discussion
Driving back from work this evening, snowing a bit, mostly just heavy rain but overall poor visibility on a pretty bad road which is just barely wide enough to pass oncoming vehicles.. Pretty heavy traffic considering the road. So then, how fking difficult is it to dip your fking headlights!? I met this tt on a longish straight, I left it a few seconds then gave him a quick flash. He responded and dipped, but as he got closer to me back came the main beams. Then within a 100 yards of me he started flashing me! WTF!? I could see fk all.
And no, I didn't have my main beams on and my headlights are aligned correctly.

Drivers like lord of the tts this morning who moved towards a icy puddle as I was walking past, clearly on purpose. Bloody knob face.
Pedestrians who can see they are about to be next to a puddle in the road, but rather than avoiding it until the road is clear they blame passing motorists for not taking avoiding action.[/trollingforfirstargumentofnewthread]

You're clearly clueless, why should I move for them?! [/trollingforfirstargumentofnewthread]
Knob.

1) The twonk parked facing oncoming traffic on the crest of a blind hill in a village on my way home.
They were either at the village school for some parent evening event type thing (were more cars parked up the same side of the road than normal) or at the church nearby so they've pulled over from the lane heading North into the lane heading South and stopped. On the crest of a blind hill. This made it bit of a gamble to proceed as it was just prior to being dark enough to see headlights over the brow.
2) The utter utter bell end who let their dog st everywhere right in front of the cash machine and didn't bother to clean it up. Fortunately I had spotted the dinosaur sized pile it as I approached but not the women coming from the other direction who wasn't paying attention or didn't hear my warning as she was on her mobile. Boy did she swear when she realised how much of what she'd stood in!

Anyone driving with their front fog lights on when its not foggy. I think these are split into two groups, those who are too stupid to realise they have front fog lights on (and wondered what that oddly coloured dashboard light meant) and those who think their car looks cooler/tougher with them on.

When in dull weather, people drive without headlights on, mostly people in silver cars so it's even harder to see them.
This.Sussex Police hang your heads in shame.Bit of a local gripe of mine with the local BiB,forever see them in bad weather or at twilight without any lights on.

Why does it annoy you? It's no different to DRL's/Ovlovs with their dipped lights on, I'd be interested to hear if anyone has genuinely been dazzled by a front fog light. Rears are a different story, I've been genuinely startled by them multiple times.AMGpower said:
People who talk as if they know all there is to know about cars and then tell you all about that new "naturally-aspirated turbo" in the Audi RS6...
I did a massive cock up like that, twas speaking to an owner of a 4 seater ferrari (which I cant for the life of me remember what ot was, but I knew it at the time), refered to a Ferrari engine as a 'flat V 12', realised my liguistic cock up and saved a bit of face...m8rky said:

(Although in these parts, it is dangerously-driven ambulances on blues and twos that is a bigger problem.
