So, I am rushing to the hospital because of some family accident/tragedy, you are on the motorway sailing along at 60 mph and overtaking an artic doing 56mph. On a busy motorway, how long do you think it would be before you have cause a tailback? Less than a minute. I arrive at the hospital too late. All because of you, you self centred smug bell end.

If I choose to drive at the speed limit, I am entitled to. Providing I am not endangering others, etc, etc. You are entitled to drive at whatever speed you deem appropriate, as long as you are not inconveniencing others who wish to go faster. You have no right, moral or legal to forcibly impose your driving style on others.


Do you, perchance drive a) A Citroen Xsara Picasso b) A Honda Jazz c) A Nissan Micra d) An old Rover?
You would be more of a danger rushing to get to the hospital.
Rambo mate. I can assure you, if your loved one has been in a bad smack, you don't bimble to hospital.

I agree. Please refer to my post on page 192 regarding just that.

To the absolute cock sprocket on the M4 earlier who decided it was perfectly fine to empty his half full coffee/latte bks on the M4, whilst doing 70, spraying my fking car in the process. He looked like a fking neanderthal anyway, so reasoning won't have worked.

The Rt Hon Patrick McLoughlin MP:

  • the requirement to place repeat speed limit signs has been removed - now councils can make their own decisions on how many speed limit signs are needed so that drivers know what limits apply
  • only 1 sign now needs be installed to show the start of a traffic restriction such as no entry, or no left-turn if it’s safe
Kerrching!
On the otherhand as a motorcyclist theres far too much roadside furniture to cloide with in the event of an accident. Has to be a balancing act

I've had that on the motorbike - not pleasant. Usually it's lit fag ends bouncing off you in a shower of sparks. Breakfast items are also good apparently, banana skins, apple cores, all sorts of snack product wrappings. There really are some unthinking a-holes about

The absolute, 24 carat knobjockey of a cyclist at Cambridge Station this morning who decided that, notwithstanding the whistle having blown, the closing door beeps having started and the shouts of station staff, decided that no, his journey was more important than anything and got himself and his bike wedged in the doors and forced his way into the train.

I have 3 tips for you, you cretin:
- all of that noise is about safety: yours, the other passengers, people on the platform. It means that the heavy doors are closing and the even heavier train is about to move.
- get up earlier, you utterly selfish prick, and then you wouldn't have to rush.

This was going through the head of the woman in a Corsa in Colliers Wood high street this morning.

"I must get past this truck,I must get past this truck,I must get past this truck,I'm not giving in,I'm not giving in"

At a merge/pinch point in slow London traffic I will always let a car in IF it's in front of me but I draw the line

at the car that's down the side of the truck but it is always me that gives in to let the knob in that needs

that extra 30 feet of road as sitting behind a truck must be awful.

dhead in a white Corolla in Lane 4 of the M27 this morning, texting away at 60mph and wandering over L3 and 4 in rush-hour traffic. Absolute grade-A strap on.

MY GOD! Went for a drive with my family yesterday and it was like a free-for-all, Deathrace style

1. The mini bus driver who pulled out on a 50 mph road, forcing me to slam the brakes and drop to 10 mph - if there isn't space, don't pull out

2. The woman who, as I am reversing into a space outside Morrison, decides to drive through the back of the space and park her car. IN A NEAR EMPTY CAR PARK!

3. the small boy who was riding a push scooter thingy in Maldon. the road is empty apart from me, doing 25 in a 30, so he scoots into the lane opposite, then as I approach he veers sharply to cross in front of my car, forcing me to emergency stop. WTF! Learn to use the roads, or natural selection will have its way

4. the blue people carrier not paying attention on approach to a roundabout. I'm going 3rd right around the round about, and as I approach the 2nd exit he has to slam the brake and skid to a halt, half in the roundabout to avoid smashing me. GIVE WAY TO THE F****** RIGHT

I'm not a perfect driver, nobody is, but come on guys! this was in ONE journey

The cretin this morning who decided to put his hazards on but then continue to crawl down the road at 15mph.

Turns out the guy was answering a phone call! Why not just indicate and pull over, instead he's creeping along, preventing anyone overstating due to bollards in the road and then it narrowing. Then has the cheek to kick off when someone beeps.

F-ing moron!
