Audi A3 that joined M25 at J4 today ,just behind me ,tried to go straight to L2 but that was
occupied by a Mondeo.
In general, the "straight to lane 2/3/4" behaviour is knobbish. Join in lane 1. Hold position and reassess - it only takes a few seconds - then pull out further if required, and if safe.occupied by a Mondeo.
We ran the Pontypool 10k race today. It's a fundraiser for the local hospice and very well attended. In order to minimise disruption, it's run on open roads, with a rule that runners should stick to pavements.
This is challenging when cars are parked half on half off, but the prize for 'knob of the day' goes to the old barsteward in a Freelander who nearly took out half a dozen runners by edging across the pavement whilst runners were passing his drive.
I may have got into a little altercation with him and am expecting a reprimand from my club and disqualification from the race... I just snapped when he nudged me, rather than wait for a gap in the pack.

This beige crapbox. Everyone else left a gap for the next car(notice the large gap the black Insignia has made), except the BMW. Happily the Insignia in front of me forced his way in, which was met with much headshaking and arm waving. Beige BMW driver needs to urgently get a life, only car in that queue that made a point of not letting people in.

That's the only one when exiting the roundabout, on approach to the roundabout there's two of these signs. It annoys me when I'm going left at this roundabout and have to queue with people who could use the merging lane. 
I was out with my 3 boys yesterday, walked from my house to a park up the road. I have a 1 year old in a pushchair and 2 boys under 4 on balance bikes. We get to a zebra crossing opposite the park, we stop and check and a Mondeo stops. I look the other way and a white Polo is coming towards us at speed, goes straight through the crossing while apparently texting on her phone without even noticing me or the other car stopped waiting for us to cross. Had I assumed cars would stop, we'd have been in the road and who knows whether she'd have noticed us.
Wish I'd have clocked the reg plate as something like that needs reporting to the police.

The cyclist heading towards me last night whilst I was out running. At first glance it looked like he was moving away from me as I could see his rear light, then it seemed he was getting closer (and I thought I was losing the plot), but he WAS getting closer....
The utter bellend had fitted his rear light to the front, and his front light on the rear....
Not long before someone pulls out on him at a junction.
These people are out there folks, take care.

I have builders STILL working on my house.
Came home about an hour ago to see newly fitted, as yet unpainted, exterior door covered in flecks of black paint & dents.
Seems the labourer decided to break up the old one next to it & when he was hitting it with a hammer it fell against the new one so he continued to do this instead of moving it.
Knob does not begin to cover it!!

ker who drives his Monaro VXR down our road every morning at precisely 6:50am like he's competing in the Bathurst 1000. Your stupid wky exhaust wakes me and my family up every morning without fail. I'm sure we're not the only household you're waking up. It's a 30 limit you fktard. I AM going to report you to the BiB.
