One single thing that makes you think "knob" Vol 3
Discussion
Twerp yesterday morning in a white transit (with a crappy sun image plastered on it arse) pulled up alongside me on the right at the A689/A1 interchange. So far so good no issues with that the issue that I had with him was that half way across he decided that he really wanted to be in my lane and promptly moved across, with the briefest nod to an indicator. What's really annoying is that it's a two lane exit and there was bugger all in front of him, you can use both lanes to go straight across so there was no bloody need to try and lop the nose of my car off.
I went for a tootle 'round on my modersickle on Sunday. It was wet, I've not ridden it for a while so was just pottering along at the speed limit. Riding at 30 through a 30 I approach a set of lights. Lane 1 is straight on, lane 2 filters off to a leading Council supermarket. The lights are red so I stop in the middle of lane one and wait for the lights. Some throbber in a black 408 (I think) pulls along side me, half in lane one, half in lane two to overtake me at the lights. Helmet.
Yesterday as usual an L405 Ranger Rover performs a death defying overtake of me on my push bike causing the oncoming traffic to stop to allow his/her Lordship to pass. A few seconds later I do a quick lifesaver glance, stick my right arm out and move to the white line in an attempt to turn right into our yard, just as I do some cow in a MINI overtakes me and also turns into the yard and she's a fking client and knows where I work.
Today the road was quiet, I look over my should and see a Focus some way behind me, I move right and just as I am about to turn the fat witch in the Focus beeps her horn at me, over takes me and gives me the finger.

Went down there again later on and around 3-4 cars are presumably written off with the amount of damage I saw, the BMW you can see had all its side windows smashed in, very deep dents the whole way down and the front bumper was hanging off..
The BMW owner might now know why one should not park on a junction. Expensive lesson learned! Parked on the wrong side of the road at night, too!Went down there again later on and around 3-4 cars are presumably written off with the amount of damage I saw, the BMW you can see had all its side windows smashed in, very deep dents the whole way down and the front bumper was hanging off..

I have to say that its pleasing to hear that you actually still do it (at all), as so many cyclists on the road don't seem to bother indicating their intentions any more.

It's stunningly annoying isn't it, I have no idea what goes through their mind or if they even notice the thought passing through it. are they retarded?

I was going up the A406 earlier today and i came across (oo-er) a MK4 Golf and the only way i can describe this car is "warped". I was behind it and i could see the back of the car in perfect profile, and i could also see the drivers side front wing, which gave the car the effect of "strafing" down the road - imagine if you put a shopping trolley at an angle but push it straight so the wheels go in the direction you push but the body is on the piss. It also had some serious negative camber on one of the rear wheels - picture one of those "stanced" cars.
Anyway when i overtook this unsafe abortion of a car that some old duffer decided was safe to drive, he flashed me as if i was the one in the wrong. Life isnt fking mad max mate, i've driven some stters before but none of them looked like a fking Salvador Dali painting.

It must have been that because when I turned left soon after, he became a 'I will overtake you in the oncoming lane as you turn left' type of person.
The female driver of the Evoque in Camberley this afternoon that was driving along on a completely pancaked passenger side front tyre that was starting to shred bits of rubber as she went along the A331.
It didn't seem to bother her, or maybe the suspension on the Evoque is so hard she hadn't noticed, but she happily joined the M3 London bound at J4 and sped off at more than the 50 restriction flicking off bits of rubber as she went.

The driver of the curtain-sider who was reversing out of a narrow car park while having a conversation on his phone.
The fat tosser who came round a blind corner on the wrong side of the road in his Transt while on the phone.
The dhead in the Audi A5 who cut me up on A1 near Biggleswade while on his phone.
The Jabba the Hutt lookalike in the Corsa who nearly ran me over at my local retail park as she was on the phone.
Generally tts on their phones.

Stupid fg Bint in blue Astra estate on A2 travelling at a steady 62 mph in L3, of 4, when all other lanes were empty who decided that every car that came from L1 or 2 to L4 to overtake her needed a prolonged bout of her main beams as they overtook & returned to inner lanes.
It wasn't us being arrogant you silly cow!!
