If you really want to be annoyed, try the M20 anywhere in Kent, it’s the Wild West! HGV’s in the outside lane and still trying to overtake, smashes on the daily, cars heading the wrong way, speed limits don’t exist, zero traffic police!
Don’t try it at home kids  |

People who sit in the middle or outside lane of the motorway when not overtaking. Especially when they are not driving at the speed limit (yes, I'm aware it is a maximum and you are within your rights to drive slower provided you are driving safely). Inside lane for all vehicles unless actively overtaking! |

People who drive at 40 in a 60, then you reach a village with a 30 limit and they sail through still at 40 while you slow to 30. Then you catch them up when you come out the 30 and speed back up, and there they are, still puttering along at 40!! |

People that don't know how to use a filter lane and block the live lane with poor execution of filtering.
People who don't indicate
People who excessively tap the brakes when there is nothing in front of them and you are stuck behind them.
People that do 20 in a 40 or any variant of going a massive amount slower than the legal limit. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I live in a rural area so it’s people who either can not reverse or refuse to pull right over, which could involve putting a wheel of the tarmac or getting in the hedge a bit so we can squeeze past each other. Plus the usual poor lane discipline/lack of indicating at roundabouts and general lack of assertiveness while making manoeuvres ( indecisiveness causes accidents). Just re-read my post and I sound a right old whinger. |

Don't get me started.
People who drive with their full beams on at night.
We have street lights, we have head lights why do people think that by driving a wannabe Christmas parade they are more visible? At long range yes. But At short distance the other driver aka me can't see shit. Then there's an oh when I smash your car. Oh and by the way it's actually illegal to drive at night with full beams on for this precise reason.

Just drive / ride from A to B, put the music on, relax and chill. If someone makes a mistake just count to ten then carry on enjoying the ride.

People who will stop on a Main Road, to let someone out of a Side road, then hold up traffic behind them!
Hey Moron, traffic entering onto the Main Road isn't important, let them take their chance!!!!
Poor lane discipline, esp on roundabouts.
Truck drivers, albeit only a few, who decide to overtake another truck on a dual carriageway, but the overtaking truck goes at half a mile faster than the other one, thus taking ages to complete the process & frustrating those drivers caught up behind.
Drivers who think rear fog lights should be put on in the rain, thus blinding everyone behind! Moronic idiots!

Think you'll find under law they have the priority on the roads like pedestrians! They were using it long before cars were even invented! And paying road tax does not give you an automatic right to use the roads, that money does not even go on the roads it goes into the public purse. |

1. Tootling along and there’s a car up your arse. And they stay up your arse despite it being a dual carriageway with opportunity to go past.
2. No indication.
3. Late breakers.
4. Folk who when you break and stop at lights have left a mile long gap between themselves and the car in front so the light changes just as they go through and you have to stop again.

Parking!
Parents especially.
Parking on the road, then getting your kids out roadside
Stand there door open, while their little darling faffs around.
Not only does it hold up traffic its bloody dangerous
How hard can it be to seat your child passenger side, or get them to scoot over the seat to exit onto the pavement? |

Being behind someone in the right (and straight on!) lane, at a set of lights at a junction. They haven't indicated they were turning right so you think you will be ok to get behind them. Just as the lights go green they indicate right and creep forward into the box, leaving you with nowhere to go as nobody in the left lane will let you in.
Is supergluing there hands to the indicators, a step too far? |

Of course there's no such thing as road tax, it's vehicle excise duty, charged based upon the polluting nature of the vehicle, which goes into the general taxation fund for the government to use as they see fit in the Budget ... but hey ... why let that little fact get in the way |

Re road maintenance .. local roads are funded by local councils who are in turn mostly funded by council tax.
Motorway and trunk road maintenance comes out of the general taxation fund |

I think we must have some very old swingers on here. They would have last paid road tax in 1937.
I drive, but in my youth cycled a lot. I know how scary it can be on a busy fast road when cycling. Have some people just no memory, no empathy or just never learned to ride a bike?
As for horses paying road tax, that's going to raise about how much £48.96 for the whole of the UK? |

People who think the hard shoulder is an overtaking lane.
People who think the outside lane is for going exactly the same speed as the car to their left.
Lorry drivers who try and overtake another lorry when they are both limited to the same speed and have to rely on a right hand curve in the road to overtake.
Lane hogs.
People who dont look ahead and only react to what is in front of them.
The woman I passed a few months ago, putting her make up on in her visor mirror when their was an ambulance behind her trying to get past.
Norfolk drivers (where right of way depend on how long your family has lived in the village)
Drivers who turn round in their seats to bollock the kids/dog while driving.
Aggressive drivers that pull right up behind you while you are already overtaking, while flashing their lights at you... even if you are approaching a line of traffic.
Dicks that swerve from inside to outside lane to overtake one vehicle to swing back in to exit the motorway.
People who have no idea how to use a roundabout. |

Horse boxes.

People who set off painfully slowly from traffic lights.
People who think the braking distance gap I've left between me and the car in front is for them to cut into and force me to slam all on.
People who clearly look terrified of driving and go so slowly everywhere whilst sitting in a position where their face is practically touching the windscreen.
People who don't check their mirrors before changing lanes.
People who force the front end of their car out of junctions to try and make you let them out when you have the right of way |

What grinds my gears is when you are being considerate to other drivers by flashing your lights to let them pass parked cars etc ( even when it is your right of way ) and the fuckers drive past you without even as much as a wave, nod, or smile as a little thankyou for being such a nice person. Ignorant cunts Grrrrr. |

When there are road works and you can see that 2 lanes are going to go into 1 and you get a driver who carrieds on in the outside lane right up to the point where it stops and expects to be let in while everyone else has been pulling in at a sensible distance. |

Cars that keep creeping towards a red light and cross the white line line still creeping forward even though the light is still red. I've seen cars half way across the junction before lights change. Is it that hard to come to a complete stop and then go when the lights change? I assume it's often to do with poor clutch control? |
