I have to admit to doing something similar. Pulled up behind what looked like a parked car, no rear lights on , no one in drivers seat and hugging the kerb. Presumed it was the last car in a long line of parked cars and proceeded to over take. Got about 6 cars down the line before noticing the beady eyes of a copper staring at me !! Turns out they were stuck in a queue and the person at the back was a midget who couldn’t be seen through the rear screen and they didn’t have their foot on the brake like I normally do when stopped.

At the time it was a simple enough mistake to make and a quick sheepish reverse to the back of the queue soon sorted it laugh
Nice one, had it with lttle old ladies as well, even the hat was hiiden by the headrest, to me is was a runway car!
I've had the opposite, once! Pulled up in a queue of traffic, wondering why the lane to my right was starting to move and I wasn't. Only then did I realise I was stopped behind a queue of parked cars.

In my defence it didn't look like the type of road that would have on street parking, honest!

Just to highlight driving on any kind of trading estate is open season for dheads much of the time , got reminded on the start of this vid some real piss poor driving in this one although some can be avoided by the innocent parties often I find rolleyes thats not an excuse by the way for st driving nono but why involve yourselves in an avoidable accident through ignorance or being pig headed ? I know many are completely unavoidable but the majority on this thread will know where I'm coming from beer

Me too.

Thought a 106 at first, but door mirrors are from a Saxo.

I suppose being thought of as a div and getting a conviction for careless driving is better than a conviction for driving while using a phone.

Is it? I'd hope they were the same! They certainly should be.

I wonder if spiders or other phobic animals might become the new bees and cramp.

The number of stranded motorists that decide to stand at the front of their vehicles is mind-boggling.

about 10 years ago on the A580 dual carriageway a fiesta had broken down , they sat in the car in lane one I assume because it was raining , as I approached from the other direction I saw a truck swerve round them.

I was utterly gobsmacked when I came back 40 minutes later and they were still sat in it with people not noticing they were stationary , amazingly they hadn't been hit but that truck would've had a normal person out of the car, raining or not

Careless driving is 3 point / £100 fixed penalty, phone is 6 point / £200 fixed penalty. Obviously if it went to court they could go higher.

To be fair, it can happen.
I went to pull away in my car while wearing wet boots. Foot slipped up the clutch pedal and it sprung up, trapping my foot between the clutch and the bottom of the dash. Fortunately had no one in front to hit as i trundled along in first gear desperately trying to free my foot.

Imagine if they'd have been on the inside lane which was as clear as a bell..

Did the Mercedes catch fire at the end? a 50mph shunt into a static car must've hurt..
