    Things that do your head in

    something that is really getting to me at the moment when driving is the amount of idiots that have one headlight bulb out, are they seriously too dull to tell its out or are they just tight ass bast*rds and cant pay a few quid for a bulb. seems to be something im seeing all the time atm. rant over lol

    Do notice that too .
    My one is drivers who are in the left hand lane on a roundabout and go out of their lane and try to drive into you .
    Other one , on a roundabout again is drivers in the left hand lane that go off at the 3rd or more exit and try to drive into you ( usually without indicating at all )
    I canny invest in ya and for that reason , I'm oot .

    People just dont want to spend any money this year! its bad but I bet its more than a score to have a bulb fitted at a garage. 'most' people cant change it themself remember.

    There's loads of things that annoy me just now, but there is one main thing.

    It's the amount of wanks who flash their lights and beep horns over the silliest little mistakes then sit right up your arse. I mean seriously, what's it all about? I like to think I'm a courteous driver, if someone does something a bit blonde then I'll always let it go. I'm not exactly perfect.

    I had one last year where someone of smaller proportions got annoyed because I had pulled out in front of him in Tesco's car park, by "pulled out" he was quite far away but as soon as I started moving he accelerated to quite an inappropriate speed. I made a sorry gesture, but he was still in a raging mood and telling me to pull over, eventually I got so annoyed I stopped, he got out first then got back into his car when I got out. Now anyone who knows me will tell you that I'm probably the most chilled out person, the last fight I had was when I was in primary school lmao And to top it off it really ruined my weekend

    Re: Things that do your head in

    Lugy did the fight at primary school spoil your weekend or the idiot in tesco?

    Im with daddy cav on the people driving all the way around the round about in the outside lane, my dad does that and it really grinds my gears. Keep pointing out to him how easy it is to cause a crash but like most old drivers he would rather just stay blissfully ignorant to other drivers.

    Another one that grinds my gears is when drivers get right up your arse on roads with speedbumps, some even completly inappropriately and dangerously over take you or at least try to.
    Want good quality mirror finish smoked rear lights for you car? drop me a pm.

    At least they have got their lights on
    Also keeping your rear fog light on when your close enought to see them
    Outside lane knobs
    People that overtake me in a 30 zone, and then I catch them up by the second bend, and then hold me up

    However since I've been listening to Radio 2 I've been much better

    Re: Things that do your head in

    too many things to name all of them but one thats getting on my tits atm is when someone ****s up in someway when driving then bibs at you as if you are in the wrong i actually had some bloke try to pull in my lane without indicating or suggesting he was coming over and nearly side swiped me and he felt that i was in the wrong for this......... i wasnt going fast only a dual carriage way like, i thought to myself youve got to be some sort of a major pillock to blame someone else for something youre quite clearly in the wrong about

    I can't stand those muppets that don't move out of my way when I'm flying down the outside lane flashing my one working high-beam at them. Does my fruit. I have to undertake them and throw them the V just to maintain my speed. Don't even get me started on zebra crossings!

    Re: Things that do your head in

    Trouble with a lot of newer cars is the dash lights light up as soon as you turn the ignition so wallys dont realise and think they have their lights on

    As for the 45mph in a 60 and then continue to do 45mph in a 30mph ... I totally agree .

    Re: Things that do your head in

    For me it's the morons who are too lazy to walk the extra 10 paces across the car park and choose to fight for the closest space to the shop, holding me up trying to get to the exit. When there's loads of spaces, just park the bloody car! Why make it difficult?

    people who follow me really close, especially when we are having hazy rain and fog conditions like the other day, i have people sitting right on my arse...and im more of an arse so i brake hard and get responses with flashing lights and horns lmao ...what idiots dont realise is that in conditions like that if i meet with an accident or if someone infront brakes hard causing me to brake hard then said wanker behind me wont be able to stop

    that, is what is doing my nut right now

    flaming idiots that drive in the dark with side lights on and front fog lights instead of normal headlights.

    I wish i was a copper to teach a few why they are called fog lights.

    On the flip side Tom, I was driving to work the other in some serious fog, and there were mongs driving round in silver cars with no lights on at all.

    to get more petrol.

    Re: Things that do your head in

    Anybody driving discourteously get's my goat, sitting on my arse just makes me go slower. Too many people don't think enough about their driving and just aim for where they're going.

    Front fog lights, i hate them,

    we get quite a bit from where i live to work but why keep fogs on for 3 days are its gone

    my other thing atm is people who have no patience in fuel stations so park on the wrong side then moan the 'lead' isnt long enough so move the car closer or want you to back so they can get to the other side, idiots.

    And people who put wrong fuel in the car, ffs your driving the thing you should know.

    i hate that so much, it just goes to show how people are just in their own little world when driving and dont pay any attention to anything, not even their own car.

    the amount of idiots we have recovered this year who have done it is unreal. then they moan at us when they get a big bill for draining and flushing their fuel system! its their f****** fault!
    we has to replace the high pressure pump on an XC90 a few months ago after someone had filled the diesel tank with milk lmao (although i guess that wasnt the owner.)
