...The man, aged in his 40s, must attend court accused of driving offences. He had been carrying out work for an elderly couple and was taking the garden waste to a tip when he was stopped on 8 September...
Hopefully, as well as court for driving offences, he'll be charged by the local council for taking trade waste to the tip, and HMRC and/or the DWP (benefits people) will be wanting a quiet word too...

2 from today:

1 - driver of the blinged up 18 plate Ford Ranger on the A30 in Camberley earlier this afternoon.

A selection of stickers on the rear panel including "I voted for Brexit", "I (heart emoji) Brexit", "Make England great again", "Fuk Da EU wkaz" & also a sticker that read "Fuk Da Foreignz".

Any chance we can chuck him & his family out of this country, instead of "Da Foreignz" they evidently don't like?

2 - driver of the battle scarred Skoda Fabia Taxi at the McLaren roundabout in Woking. Got cheesed off with me and decided to blast his horn and wave his arms at me dramatically all because i didn't pull onto the roundabout into a barely acceptable gap. The reason for not pulling into the gap that opened up? Because the vehicle coming from the right was an ambulance with lights and sirens on and i thought it was probably a better idea to let them clear the roundabout first rather than pull out in front of them and then slow them up having to stop / move left further down the A320.

68 reg Kia version of a Qashqai but stter.

40mph is not the speed you need to be going at the entry end of a slip road.
Brake testing someone who is more than three seconds behind you is silly.
Swerving at someone for having the audacity to overtake.
Trying to undertake on a roundabout.
Not using your turning signals once.
Tailgating a motorbike along a busy A road to try and catch the one you couldn't undertake.

I appreciate you have a new car and haven't fathomed the controls; but there is no need to put everyone else at risk due to you not having read the manual yet.

Sorry guys.

Individuals working for Councils who make it hard to dispose of waste.

Yesterday as part of our house development we flattened an en-suite.

We loaded the car with the waste, carefully sorted by plaster-board, tiles and wood. Arriving at the tip we were turned away as A) site users are only allowed to dispose of two bags of plaster a month, and B) it is 'development waste', which they are not allowed to take any of. WTAF, where else does (none trade) plasterboard waste come from if not from knocking something down in your house?!

Also, fly-tipping is rife in the area, which is no wonder when it's made so bloody hard to dispose of your rubbish.

On a positive note, when home I noticed that my wedding ring wasn't on my finger, which was found after half an hour of sifting through all the rubbish.... but still, which clown thought that this policy is a smart idea! furious
Warsop, or Bolsover? I've had issues with both in the last 2 months, since moving back not far from you.

Lycra clad tt at the station this morning.

Pushed to the front past people who were established on the platform.
Pushed a person getting off back on in his haste.
Took the disabled seat (nearest the door) and ignored anyone else who looked uncomfortable in standing, nearby.
Got up a stop early to stand in the middle of the doorway, making people file past him.
Glared daggers at anyone at risk of stopping him being first off.
Insulting the barrier attendant for checking his ticket as it would’ve been quicker to actually queue for the barrier.

God only knows what knobbetry he got up to on the way to the station.

Chav in his chavved up fiesta heading toward armley gyratory in Leeds during rush hour this evening.
Said belljar was a few cars in front of me and decided to tuck in behind a passing ambulance that the traffic was parting for.
Within 20 yards very nearly ran into the back of the ambulance.
50 yards further on ambulance stops paramedic gets out and stormed to the fiesta opened the passenger door and I’m guessing remonstrated harshly with the driver.
Who sheepishly stopped Driving like a tool and tucked into right lane
I hope chav driver gets reported for something as why would you do something like that to an emergency vehicle with blues and twos on.
Utter tool

If this round Slough, Watford or Basingstoke areas that could have easily been my father in law.
He'll stop an ambo and remonstrate the drivers and then report them to his control room and the Police who do take action against it I think.

It was his first day of commuting. He wanted to show the world he wasn't scared. But he was really, the poor lamb.

i had to read that a few times before realising that your father in law is an ambulance driver.

Car drivers who honk at lorries on roundabouts. Seems to have got more common in the last few years (easy dash cam material perhaps).

Car is 200+ yards from RAB as lorry joins yet approaches and drives round it at twice the speed of sound and seems surprised there is a lorry blocking their exit.

The alternative would be for all lorries to wait until there are no cars on any entry road within 200 yards of a roundabout before joining. I’m sure the car driver would be thrilled waiting in the mile long tailback knowing they have a clear roundabout to look forward to?

Not a lorry driver but I do think “knob” every time that happens..

The "two hat" in the grey BMW X1 who beeped the old guy who's audi had just broken down in the middle of a major road in Manchester yesterday.

You could clearly see the guy had broken down and the guy had even placed his warning triangle behind his car to indicate a hazard, yet you sir were the only one who beeped in disgust.

Connard, va chier!

Big thanks to the woman who nearly ran me over in her 1 series while I was using a zebra crossing. You're supposed to do one thing to raise your heart rate each day, and that did the trick. I was only half way across so it was probably my fault.
I'm not a big one for effing and jeffing so managed a slightly pathetic 'thanks very much' as she sped by. She then parked up about a hundred yards away, got out, and gave me a look of disgust that couldn't have been any worse if I'd shat in her handbag, wiped my arse on her curtains, and left without washing my hands.

and it's at that point i'd have explained to her the error of her ways.
