Why is it that people think they can literally stop anywhere if they put their hazards on?!

What really gets me, is trucks that park legitimately in a roadside loading bay between two other trucks, but switch their hazards on anyway.

So approaching from behind all you see is three parked trucks, with the one in the middle looking like he's about to pull out because you can only see his offside indicators.

Because they are a cabbie and are therefore the most important road user in the entire universe. YOU should be making evasive manouvers to avoid THEM and their crappy driving - they couldn't possibly be arsed to actually check what other people are doing first.

It's unbelievable though, I saw someone block a road and put their hazards on so they could go into a shop. 2 minutes later they come out with a newspaper.

I would have loved someone to ram their car off the road....

Woman did this with her RR outside the village school on my way to work a couple of months ago.

Narrow lane cut down to single lane due to the other parked 4x4s dropping little precious off so when she got back there was a queue of cars at either bumper wanting to get past in opposite directions.

She was so oblivious to how she was at fault that she actually screamed, 'Where do you expect me to go?' out the window when she realised she was hopelessly blocked in.

A teacher came out in the end and opened the school gate so she could pull in while the rest of the traffic sorted itself out.

Airborne car removal by transport helicopter would solve this.
