Annoying road users

What? You complain when people take time to cross the road on a zebra crossing and Sometimes they maybe on the phone. ( bet you rev up your car when waiting?) as its been said before how much time have you lost 10 seconds maybe 15? Hell I've lost about 1 minute of my time reading your twines :D

Lol, ok, keep on about one of my minor niggles but carry on ignoring the more important point I've made,

You could be well within the speed limit and someone suddenly steps out into the road completely oblivious and within a few feet of you, with phone to ear, not having looked to his right or left, and you'd have to slam the brakes on. That's all I'm saying. Yet for some reason, instead of agreeing with me that a pedestrian doing that would be a moron causing you to have to suddenly brake hard, you're fighting me over this.

since you've got absolutely no comeback to it. You're almost as funny in this thread as your GD joke threads. They were incredibly successful..
 
Some cow went through a Zebra crossing at about 25 MPH when there were a number of people clearly waiting to cross the other day. It's the main crossing away from a school aswell which had just finished.
 
I hate people that cant do round abouts properly.

For example a roundabout with 4 exits total, left, straight on, right and your exit. They go in the right hand lane to go straight ahead. Next roundabout has 3 exits, left, straight on and your exit. The same car goes in the left lane and goes straight on. Wheres the logic!
 
Trusty middle lane, brain-dead numpties are my current best friends.

I'm quite happy to sit at 70 but these ****s zoom up behind me at 80+, sitting on my back bumper refusing to overtake (when I'm overtaking someone anyway and can't move back in) then they speed past once I move over but then they end up behind someone who is doing 60odd in the middle lane and still they refuse to overtake so I end up overtaking both and the cycle starts again!

It's no wonder people complain about poor mpg, what do you expect if you keep braking and powering up between 60 and 80 odd?! ****s! I'm so used to it now that doesn't really come as a surprise anymore so no point in getting annoyed about it. Would be nice to be able to show them the error of their ways by shooting them in the face though. :)

Things that annoyed me yesterday and today.

Several times where a road is too narrow, I give way to the oncoming car, and too many times these ***** are oblivious and don't acknowledge with a simple flash or a hand gesture. Also, what makes drivers think they don't have to say thanks just because the first driver in front of them might have already acknowledged me? If I'm in a cue of a few cars and an oncoming car has let us through, I always say thanks as I go past, regardless if the first driver already said thanks or not.

So you would if you had a choice pre condition your driving to only those who say thanks? It was your choice to let them through, you can't demand someone to be polite and say thanks and if your saying that you would've changed your mind if they didn't say thank you then thats completely ridiculous

You're making a lot of presumptions aren't you. Of course I wouldn't pre condition my driving. I'm just talking about common courtesy. Look it up.
 
People tailgating me through speed cameras.. no idea why but had a lot of that tonight and i do exactly the limit under a camera, not like others who slow down to 30 in a 50 lol.
 
Merlin5, I think you need a bit less salt in your diet. You are TOO STRESSED :D

I think my pet hate this week is people who stop on main roads to give way to people in side roads who are waiting to pull out and turn right. If I'm cycling these people endanger me because they'll just stop dead on a main road and by the time I've realised what they're doing I'm either about to hit them or I'm down their side, then the person in the side-road has just worked out why they've stopped, they pull out and I nearly hit them too. Today I was in the car behind one of these idiots, car in front stopped dead, I had to hit the brakes even though I was some way back, car in side-road sat there not knowing what to do, car in side road then pulls out, nearly takes down a moped coming the other way, then the car behind the moped locks up and nearly hits the car pulling out because they've just nailed it out the side road out without actually looking. Fault? I'd say the car on the A road who just stopped dead. Idiot.
 
As a learner, people who over take at around 2 mph faster than you then sit under the NSL right in front of me.

Why bother overtaking in the first place?,
 
people that dont pull out from a minor road even though the only traffic is on the right and is indicating to turn left into the minor road.

However sometime people who are indicating into the minor road don't know they have their indicators on.

I don't risk it. So yeah, hello mr.annoyed :o
