Outside Frimley Park Hospital being a total dickwad (again). Seeing as how it's not the first time he's been spotted behaving like an utter tool at 7am in/near the drop-off zone.

Kian? You're a cocksocket. Your terry-toweling gym kit, your little 'gym handbag', your unwillingness to just drive around the (One Way!!!!) drop off zone in the correct direction, your habit of obstructing the bus' turning circle wherever you end up parked abandoned, and your cringeworthy habit of driving yourself to the hospital then swapping seats with the woman who accompanies you, who then drives away herself. Oh, that, and your aggression toward other drivers who are driving in the CORRECT direction around the drop off. They all mark you out as a bit of a Neanderthal. Perhaps you ought to be a little more circumspect in your behaviour outside what I presume is your place of work, and maybe lay off the 'roids, you cretin.

My local train station has two cars I see doing something similar just in the time I turn up.

One always seems to pull up just inside the entrance to the drop off zone, holding up a queue of people waiting to enter whilst the short dumpy husband twaddles off and the wife adjusts the seats and mirrors.

The second one just pulls up on the zig zags on the main road holding up even more traffic whilst they swap drivers.

Other retards also park on the zig zags to drop off passengers (despite the clearly provided drop off zone) including one super wker dropped off in a Boxster. This pathetic super-loser allegedly had a huge rant at another driver recently because they overtook his wife when nothing was coming the other way, stopping her from resuming her journey. Because THEY should have waited.

Makes you wonder what other selfish knobittry they come up with.



But dont worry.. to them every day is a one-off situationa

FYI, I didn't challenge him today because my wife was in the car (I was dropping her off) and she asked me not to. She worries that 'roid rager Kian will kick off, and didn't fancy the stress. Last time I challenged someone for driving the wrong way into the drop off zone, by placing my car so as to obstruct them, they became abusive (from the safety of their car) before pushing past anyway. Previous challenges have elicited the sarcastic "well I'm only going one way" from a fat tosser in a BMW, and Kian himself, who, when I politely pointed out what I presumed was an error (first time I'd seen him do it), decided his best, most considered response was to tell me to "fk off and mind your own business, or I'll kick your in". This morning, he stopped in a yellow box area, obstructing the exit to the car park to do his hot seat swap, and then his female companion drove only partway into the one way system, before reversing round a blind bend (view obstructed by a building even when facing the right way, FFS). All this could be avoided if they just drove in from the main road, and turned right into the (ONE WAY!!!!!!!) drop-off loop which they (and this is the most bewildering bit) have driven past anyway, and would leave Kian's Doris facing the right way, avoiding a multi-point turn in his full-fat tosser-spec drop top diesel Audi.

For the record, I am NOT "uphillfreewheeler", just an unremarkable, ordinary chap trying to go about his daily business without morons bucking the system and breaking the established set of sensible traffic rules put in place for the safety of us all.

"Kian" is a showy twunt, probably angry that the 'roids have shrunk his manhood, and seems to think he's free to do as he pleases. It's dangerous to drive the wrong way in this particular one-way system because a)the bus uses it to do a loop so as to point the correct way to exit the site. There is no other conceivable way of the bus doing this without completely obstructing the ambulance entry road with a multi-point turn. b) ambulances (OK, not blue lighters) use this one way loop do drop patient transfers off under the three entrance canopies at the front of the hospital c) pedestrians tend not to look both ways when the zebra crossings they are using are within a one way system, and have been since before I moved here about 15 years ago. d) re-tasked ambulances exiting the hospital use the road that this stbag was obstructing. Would you like to find out that a family member's ambulance was delayed because it collided with a car reversing out of a one-way system it's driver KNEW they shouldn't enter?

There shouldn't be a need for me, nor anyone else, to challenge this behaviour. The signs and road markings are clear, and the reason for them is self-evident.

Are you the sort of knobhead who drives like "Kian" by any chance? wink

You come across as an apologist for this sort of behaviour, which (IMHO) is inexcusable. Doing it once? Fair one, you made a mistake. Doing it habitually? You're a Knob. Simple as.

Utter twunt van driver who behaved a bit like 'Kian' at Shrewsbury B&Q on Saturday.

The car park has quite clear direction markings on the entrance / exit. Van driver, of course, decided that they didn't apply to him, as going in through the 'out' lane is faster. In his rush to park he managed to make a nice big dent in his rear bumper as, not only did he ignore the road markings, he also ignored the 4ft high bollard at the back of his chosen parking space smile I must confess to laughing quite merrily.

Had a stupidly similar one yesterday on A13. Nothing to see at all, minor prang probably in traffic which for some reason required a police car to block the inside lane which pushed everyone into the outside two lanes.

Should still flow nicely through right?

Nope, everyone slows to a stop to have a good look. NOTHING INTERESTING THERE PEOPLE! Car in front of me practically stopped dead to have a nose before rocketing off again. FFS.

Theres the point where I'd give up on trying to correct him and buy a suzuki vitara with bullbars instead. Fit camera, steam around the blind corner while they attempt their knobishness and make sure you brake just abit too late. Jobs a good'un.

the stupid bh in the kermit green scirocco on the road into manchester this morning, who failed to understand merge in turn, accelerated to block me positioning myself to zipper-merge well before we were even anywhere near the merge point (whilst shouting at me through the side window); causing me to have to brake to let her in front in order to avoid oncoming traffic (which was a safe distance away, but it wouldn't have continued to be, and i would have been in the danger zone). I did overtake at the next (safe) opportunity because she seemed to be deliberately driving slowly and creating a gap in front. We then proceeded on the same route into manchester where she clearly was still aggrieved for whatever reason. At every set of lights or stoppage she proceeded to flash me multiple times. Not sure why that was, i certainly was brake-testing her or anything. Angry middle-aged spinster career woman in appropriate car. I expect she owns more than one cat.

Blow her a kiss - guaranteed to send them nuclear. Did this just the once to some really strange woman in a delivery van (long story - not interesting) and had the pleasure of watching her literally bouncing up and down on her seat with rage. Totally removes any residual irritation you might have felt and is incredibly funny too. smile

Yep had this tonight a couple of cars parked in the central reservation of the A689 just before the Fishburne turn off with hazards going - here - https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@54.6569577,-1.39436..., I'm going to hazard a guess and say the the first car misjudged the slip road, which is between the dual carriage lanes and pulled off too early, possibly followed by the car behind, van boy was having a damned good rubber neck and slowed right down which meant a little more aggressive change of lane than I had in mind (I was overtaking him anyway but still the sudden change in closing speed was a bit of a whoa moment).

Mind you the coppers were certainly busy today, something this morning on the usual route at Bishop Auckland viaduct crash? suicide? it is an awful long way down of the top of the viaduct (and it wouldn't, unfortunately, be the first) and on the way home a crash in Hartlepool on the A689 near the Morrisons filling station, plain paint copper on a roundabout just off the A19 and a couple of coppers zipping by going in the opposite direction in Coundon never seen so many in one commute.

Sadly it was dark and we could only see each other briefly. With the lamp light angle at one set of lights I could just about make out what looked like her laughing manically. I suspect she was trying to wind me up! Was probably quite frustrating to her that I just looked confused rather than burst out the car to punt her in the sponge. All v weird.

The numpty chugging at 30 mph down the slip road to join
a dual carriageway with a queue of cars behind him.Still
continued on his merry way at 30 mph once he joined.
How did he not see all the cars travelling faster than him and
not increase his speed to match those around him.

Everyone, every morning, who fails to merge in turn at this junction and then forms two queues of traffic in a single lane, before crossing the white hashes to merge onto the main carriageway and generally ends up waiting behind everyone else who merged correctly 20 yards further up the road. Every. Single. Morning.

Not too differently to how this white van merges in the Steetview images...

Mustn't feed the troll(s) but on my commute there is a queue that develops every morning on a stretch of dual carriageway where a tidal system operates through a tunnel and over a bridge. The operators have taken to changing the priority recently, so although most commuters are going my way, they reduce it to one lane for periods to clear the queue on the other side of the bridge.

The queue normally builds in lane 1 with lane 2 staying pretty empty; you can drive almost half a mile past the sheeple and merge at the bottom of the hill at the entrance to the tunnel, where the arrows and the red cats eyes direct you to. The other day, a traffic cop was about 3 cars ahead of me and behind a lorry that was holding up l2 by matching the speed of l1. It was VERY satisfying to see the cop pull the lorry over for some re-education at the side of the road and just reinforces the fact that using an empty lane is not queue jumping. It's the way it should be done.
I have always suppored 'MIT' at appropriate times, as per your example. But please don't argue that there are not times when drivers really do push in when two lanes go into one.It happened to me yesterday on a slip road when I was overtaken at the last second, on a hatched area.
I don't think anyone would suggest that what happened to you is correct or an example of MIT. You seem unable to accept that merge in turn can operate even if there are not signs instructing drivers. It's something that should be common sense.
There are many indicators that the speed limit is 30 on certain roads without specific sign posts, I assume you don't drive at 100mph through these areas because, you know, no signs?

The idiot in the anonymous Toyota (?) who decided to make the two lane entry onto the roundabout between Stanmore and Elstree (A5 crossing the A41) into only one lane.

Could be forgiven if you don't know the area, slight mistake, benefit of the doubt etc.

Situation illustrated perfectly here:
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6364536,-0.30445...

But, on seeing the queue up the hill to Elstree he ducked off into a residential side street only to emerge 10/15 cars up the queue and expect to be let in.

You sir / madam are a knob. You cannot be forgiven for an error as you clearly know the area and also know / must see that every day people use the two lanes as the road widens onto the roundabout.

Take a gamble, pick a pump and GTF out of the way.
