At least 90% of the times I see that sort of poor driving, the idiot behind the wheel is fiddling with their phone, and glancing up occasionally to look at the road / their surroundings
It is chuffing annoying, and so easily spotted - chin down, eyes down as they update their status/search for the "like" button for the latest cat photo etc. I cannot understand the mental process that leads people to think that replying to a text/tweet/Facebook (other social media sites are available) can't wait until they are not behind the wheel of a tonne and a bit of metal.
Some chav in an old £500 banger Merc this morning who decided to go flying through a red light at about 45mph whilst I was turning. Or the amazing pensioner in the Jazz doing 25mph on the motorway yesterday who near caused a major accident and seemed to have zero idea about any of it.

Yet another Jazzer letting the side down. Listen mate, some of us Jazz drivers occasionally reach 45! So get a move on.TankRizzo said:
Is this guy taking the piss? Is this some sort of ironic "thing" I don't get?
There's a car like that who sometimes parks in my flats car parks. I think he works down the road at the old peoples home but uses our visitor bays as a car park. Looks just as bad as this but is an old MK1 Fiesta in white with Minion stickers all over it. ashleyman said:
The mini had been moved closer... I was parked with my wheels just inside the bay and the mini was at least 1.5ft in front of my car. When I got back it was about 15 cm away and the other car was the same on the rear.
Perhaps, in keeping with the political climate, he initially parked in an imperial style and then decided that he'd better return to decimal 
?Following the 3rd such occurrence of the week .. anyone who breaks down between J5 and J6 of the M25 during morning rush hour
And yes I know its probably not their fault, but there's bloody services bang slap in the middle if you think your vehicle is acting funny bloody well pull in!
That section is bad enough at the best of times, as soon as there's a breakdown its carnage thanks to the "smart motorway" - extra knob points to the weapons grade moron who thought those were a great idea

Thereby demonstrating that the "seems a bit pointless" bit was sound in both theory and practical application.
There's a 40mph dual carriageway section near me with a roundabout at both ends, along with PeLiCon crossings, with further traffic lights and roundabouts a short distance away. I'm regularly passed (me at an indicated 43/44mph) by tools who "weren't going to plod down this road" behind me. Quite often I roll up at the roundabout directly behind them, and regularly end up passing them as they are queuing for the busier exit while I can roll up to the line in the lane 2/right turn exit.
Pointless morons, pointlessly making the daily journey to work more dangerous and less efficient for everyone. So how does "having the more powerful car" work out for you on busy commutes?

The throbber in a black 3-series in Acton about an hour ago. He tried to overtake a red double decker that had pulled over at a bus stop, but was indicating to pull out. Regardless, you tried to overtake then became stranded alongside as an oncoming Seat Exeo came to a standstill infront of you. With nowwhere to go and everbody wedged in, you just sat there forcing the bus driver to squeeze his 30ft double decker out between you and the pavement. After your mess was cleared up for you, you seemed to place your hands up in the air as if your f
kwittery was everybody elses fault.
Tomorrow I leave London for the forseeable future and I won't miss it a single bit, can't wait to get out to the other side of the M25... ALL local drivers here are self-absorbed knobs.
