One single thing that makes you think "knob" Vol 3
Discussion
There must be rewards for special driving on the road, as knob driver 1 I had to "pleasure" of encountering today would win every time.
Dicksplat decided that everybody must go how quickly he deemed acceptable, ignoring the fact it's a 50 limit, and he was only doing 35. When it went into a DC he straddled both lanes. As soon as opportunity arose I may have dropped back, and floored it around him before he had time to react. Cue horn,full beam, wker sign the works.
I may not have helped by flooring it onto the other side of the DC to get past him, but it seemed to work as the van behind me did it, and then he resided back into L1.
I seriously don't know what gets into some people.

Not at all. Not everyone wants to charge about recklessly. Just because you're impatient. r e l a x.
Or you could think about the number of people you are holding up by trundling along at 40mph everywhere.My guess is you are retired. Fair enough. But the rest of us want to get home/to work/to pick up our kids/to see our dying mothers, so stop criticising and drive appropriately to the conditions and not your lifestyle.

Not heard that one before Still, as WD says best to chill out until you can get a chance to overtake, or not if there's umpteen cars between you and the hold up who can't overtake for st...

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.
Am I a knob for doing this when safe? I'd rather not slow down if I don't have to...PorkInsider said:

Sreetview of where it was.
Something I'm seeing more and more of recently is c-units cutting over the white line onto my side of the road, usually on blind corners, usual suspects, white vans, trucks and businessmen on the phone in German machinery. Infuriating, I really can't fathom how there aren't more accidents, as it always seems to be me that has to rectify the situation whilst they carry on oblivious.

I know "speed limits aren't targets" blah blah blah, but anyone in a car on a wide sweeping A road in rush hour doing less than 60 is a complete stroker.

But "Blanchimont's" confusion over what is, and is not a dual carriageway might go some way to explaining the moaning that goes on when yet another moron cops three points and £100 for exceeding the speed limit on those parts of the A303 down in the south west where there are alternating overtaking lanes (the 'three lane stretch') for a good few miles. Two lanes in the same direction does NOT equate to dual carriageway status. Just the same as it's possible to be on a dual carriageway with only one lane in one or both directions.
Still no excuse for some throbber to straddle two lanes to prevent overtaking, though.

Simple, bitterness & envy. I drive a flash expensive car so like to rub it in as I go by with a cheery wave & a BIG smug grin.

Jag driver on the A30 earlier, who sped up as I moved out to overtake, to the point he couldn't make the next bend without slewing into the wrong lane whilst stood on the brakes. Had there been a car coming in the opposite direction, he'd have hit it head on. I hope it was worth it? I noticed you staring straight ahead when I passed you on the dual carriageway section, determined not to look across at me. You sir, are an utter knob.
