The hideous obese woman in the Corsa who nearly killed me when she failed to stop at a zebra crossing this morning.
When I asked her what the f
k she thought she was doing, her response was for her and her equally rotund passengers (presuming husband, son and daughter) to verbally abuse and threaten me before driving off!
Unluckily for these tossers, the crossing is situated outside a large office and there were several staff outside smoking at the time who gave witness statements One kind bloke even told me that the CCTV cameras covered the crossing.
Details and witness statements sent to Police, so hopefully the fat cow will be receiving a visit from Plod anytime soon
The selfish old biddy in the new Fiesta who created absolute chaos at a site today beacuse she refused to reverse four car lengths to let an HGV leave on the tight access road. She just sat there stubbornly for 10 minutes until a passing Trafpol asked her move her car. Even then, she mad an absolute meal of it and nearly hit two cars and parked halfway up the kerb so that the poor sod in the artic only had inches to squeeze by.
Compulsory retests
for anyone over 70 please!
Are you allowed to walk out onto a zebra crossing or do you have to wait for traffic to stop to allow you to cross? For the record I always stop when I see someone waiting to cross but seems a bit darwin to me that you could just waltz out and expect traffic to stop?When I asked her what the f

As a sort of vaguely connected "knobbery" - Knobs who stand near Zebra Crossings when they have no bloody intention of crossing the road...
I witnessed one t'other day, outside the local hospital. Stood near the railings placed to prevent peds crossing away from the actual 'crossing', he was on his mobile 'phone, having one of those "animated" conversations that involved a lots of arm waving, and walking around in small circles. Only every time one of his small circles ended up with him walking toward the crossing, an approaching car would brake to a halt, only for him to continue the circle and turn his back on the (understandably) annoyed driver. FFS, take your call elsewhere, you moron. It's a 'mobile' telephone for a reason

Poor car. Properly restored MkII Panda 4x4's ar selling for between £5,000 and £10,000 these days. This example being a one owner from new early MkII in original condition would have been close to that mark. I wonder how much it'll fetch now it's been completely ruined.

That is hideous! Why the hell can't they ever do an OEM+ look, such as the snorkle and chunky modern off road tyres but orange wheels, garish stickers? Way OTT. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1989-Fiat-Panda-4x4-to-b...

If I were in the market for it, the first thing I would be doing is removing the stickers and painting the wheels silver/black. That things horrid!

Haaaaaa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-haaaa! Hey Bernie; Bernie! Mike and Edd have been watching our show.
The fool in the gold Golf estate in front of me at the A21 Pembury roundabout. He's in L2 (of 3), I'm in 1, we're both going straight over. He stays in L2 past the first exit, then suddenly decides not to go into L2 of the dual carriageway as he should from the roundabout lane and instead drop into L1, cutting me up in the process - would have hit me if I hadn't braked to let him in.
The dick in the de-dpf'd (a puff of soot appeared as he let rip) dark grey Mazda 6, overtaking me and the two cars in front of me on a blind bend, then obviously thought What the hell? and promptly decided to then boot it and overtake the next dozen or so cars for the next mile before forcing himself into the line of traffic (I just caught the dregs of the braking ripple effect that he caused) all in the face of oncoming traffic on a road that regularly has farm traffic of all kinds on it as well as a steady stream of HGV's of all sizes.

for anyone over 70 please! I actually looked and assumed that she was going to stop as I was on the crossing! It's not my fault if other motorist's are so arrogant and ignorant that they can't, or won't, adhere to the Highway Code.And didn't we have all this crap with the Abbey Road RTA thread? For the benefit of you,Yellowjack and anybody else who needs to know, here's the legislation:https://www.gov.uk/using-the-road-159-to-203/pedestrian-crossings-191-to-199
Taxi driver cut me up on a mini roundabout, I gave a quick pip, he leaned on his embarrassing Toyota Auris horn, sounded like a toddler's tantrum giving the wker sign, then slammed on the brakes at a roundabout, leaned out his window shouting, I simply said "you're supposed to give way to the right", he then went left (without indicating) and I went straight, the temptation to honk when he turned without indicating was immense but I thought better not.
This taxi company, can't name them but in York there are a lot of Toyota Auris Estates with their logo all over them, are the most ignorant, crap drivers. They just block everyone to pick up fares(fair enough if they're picking someone up but sometimes they block a road for 5 minutes+ and nothing can get past), one on a terraced street blocked so I couldn't get past next to a spot his car would fit in with room to spare. there's a modified black Vauxhall minibus with an illegally spaced numberplate who tailgated so close I had to pull in to let him past, sped off to god knows how fast in the 40. and they just kind of pull out regardless, there's a few taxi companies in York but this lot seem to just employ simpletons. Obviously not all bad and a small minority of this company's drivers but the bad taxi drivers here do seem to be that one company.

All that would really do is inconvenience his paying passengers.
Had some mong in a S-class nearly ruin my year, at a roundabout in birm with a three lane entry: straight/left, straight and straight/right
I use the straight/right lane and don't indicate as im going straight
He uses the straight lane and doesn't indicate either
So it came to a huge surprise to me when he tries to turn right infront of me! after I only just avoid him he starts berating me! I was to tired to argue back so I just waved him on, bloody drivers in Birmingham are awful!
