People who are clearly too busy or important to join tbe motorway via the dotted line at the end of the sliproad and instead cut across the (solid) chevron before it.

Some silly cow did this to me this morning when I was trying to join a busy M1 at the Luton junction. She crosses the chevron behind me, then speeds up to pull alongside me just as I've reached the dotted line; effectively blocking me from joining the motorway.

This annoys the cr*p out of me to, although if you time it right you can sometimes zip in behind them then into the middle lane and pull alongside them at their speed stopping them from pulling over.
Of course all this is a little child'ish and probably not in the true spirit of PH driving wink

Boarding a train that is 10% full and seeing every 4 seat table being used by a solitary person. fking annoying when travelling as a group of four.
Annoying for you perhaps but not "knob" surely? Why is a single traveler any less entitled to a table seat?

Ah one of the 'entitled' generation who have forgotten manners or the concept of common sense.

Unless he is outing himself as a knob for not booking seats in advance.

Imbecile in a black pickup (Mitsubishi Warrior L200-type) who in a queue of traffic on Sunday lowered his window and emptied his cup of coffee on to the road. It was more than a few drops - must have been at least half a cup if not more. Then he did the same again with another cup! Filthy individual. I hope your next cup of coffee spills all over the cabin - karma.

It is a liquid so will wash away? Did he throw the cup away as well? I hate littering but I don't see any problem with this. Did it splash on your car? [shrug]

It seems this thread tends to attract the serially offended or constantly angry. (The train seat one above for example). Perhaps some think "who will pxxx me off today so that I can post on the knob thread?" It seems all a bit dashcam syndrome.

Some people need to get out more / get laid / take a chill pill.

Driving home last night I joined a very empty A1 to find a gimp sat in L3 plodding along at probably 60 MPH.

I continued in L1 somewhat bemused by this. At this stage he is maybe 8 car lengths ahead over in L3.

Seeing traffic approaching from behind in the distance in L2 (of course!) maybe 4-5 middle lane numpties and not wanting to end up being stuck in L1 unable to move, I accelerate up to 70. Gimp obviously clocks this and decides suddenly to move over into L2, still at 60 MPH.

As he moves into L2 I once again drop my speed as I assume he has decided to end his knobishness and move over into L1. However he proceeds to sit there in L2, I'm obviously gaining but he has plenty of room to move over.

Still nothing.

Now very bored of his useless driving I indicate and pull into L3 to complete an overtake, at this stage he then moves back into L3 blocking me.

I move back into L1 and fly past him. Only for full beams to be flashed at me.

As I continue on happily in L1, I notice him still plodding down L3. This time the middle lane hoggers have caught up and are undertaking him in L2.

FFS - does anyone understand lane discipline?

Idiots everywhere!

No2 - The dumb ass in Guildford who was so busy staring at a pedestrian's wobbly titties that he missed the car ahead slowing for a red traffic light, and only narrowly avoided hitting the rear of it. The lady pedestrian was a 'larger' lady, but very pretty. She had a very clingy dress on, and sexy strappy patent heels. But the dress was so tight that the top of her ample bosom was straining against it, and when she walked her chest was like a pair of water balloons sloshing about in there. I'd just ridden up the cobbled High Street and was waiting at the red light at the top. She was walking down from the direction of G-Live and crossing the road toward me. The driver who couldn't function effectively because he was spellbound by her jiggly bosom was coming (fnaar, fnaar hehe ) up North Street behind a lady in a Corsa who was braking for the traffic light.

What made it even better was when this lad braked so hard his tyres screeched a little, the busty lady he'd been staring at turned around, winked, and blew him a kiss. Kudos to her, and you, young man, have been caught in the act. Busted!
Come on, we've all been there! rolleyeslaugh

Feel free to enlighten me confused

Normally I reserve me seat in advance. However, if I haven't, and If I see a free table seat I will take it. If somebody wants to sit next to me I'll quite happily let them. What I think might be excessive is me asking everybody else who boards the train if they're in a "group of 4" and whether they'd like me to move from my reserved seat in order to accommodate them.

If it's that important to anybody that they need to sit together then why not book your seats in advance?
