Pass 'at, it's Passat time
Discussion
Well, the Passat noddy brigade must have been out and about in Surrey this late lunchtime. The following idiocies noted:
1) A311/A31 junction: a light grey Passat driven by a light-grey-haired gentleman reversing on the roundabout because he'd missed his exit ... what part of roundabout don't you understand?
2) A31 Farnham bypass: a dark blue Passat driven by a diminuitive lady obviously had a speedometer that over-read by 20mph. She proceeded in the outside lane at 50mph (limit 70) until she reached the 50 sign, then she braked hard down to 30!
3) Ojn the road past Farnham railway station, a red old-style Passat driven by one of the younger generation who clearly had passed through the school system and emerged either with the inability to read or the belief that "Keep Clear" signs are intended for other drivers.
4) A287 traffic lights, a black Passat, driven by a 30-something blonde lady who didn't appreciate that traffic signals with a single unlit red, a lit green and an unlit filter do not require one to wait to turn right when there is no oncoming traffic.
5) Shortly thereafter, the driver of a light blue old-style Passat attempted to have me remove his driver's door!
You couldn't make it up! I think I'll stay in this evening.

On the M40 on Sat a toss*r in a grey Passat estate with one headlight out decides to move into my lane where I currently am . . . doesn't indicate or even look. Is the Passat the new numptie car of choice ?
Up here it's a toss up between the Passat or the Bora...Mind you A6s seem to be doing their bit too.
