Driving standards

Not arsed about people driving too slow. Hate people who drive too fast.

I often wonder if the impatient bellends leg it everywhere as fast as they can, or do they just drive fast because they're inconsiderate and are no more in a rush than they are when it actually takes some effort to get somewhere as fast as you can.
The slow drivers do me in - I got kids to feed, company to run, dog to get home for, shopping to do etc etc, some ferret wants to go 40 in a 60 all the way home cos they’ve got nuffin to do.

I know how it sounds but I lose a lot of time, hours a week, cos of these people

Fast drivers obvs are tits too
 

Utterly horrendous.

I went down the M4 towards the M25 2 days ago - in a fast lane sat a white van doing a steady 65mph absolutely not bothered about hogging the lane, with nothing inside him. A line of angry BMW drivers lined up on his bumper, eventually gaving to undertake him. I did too, eventually, but only on the very inside lane.

Every journey i end up behind someone doing at least 20mph lower than whatever the speed limit is, despite good conditions etc. Not helped that modern cars over-read their speed by at least 5mph at 70.

Journeys I remember taking 1 ½ hours, 20 years ago, now regularly take over 2 hours.

People can't park either. Was stuck behind a car in our high street last week, that was double parked .... against an empty space.... some bint decided it was too much effort to squeeze their SUV into a perfectly big enough space, so just parked next to it ffs.

So YES, plenty of evidence that driving is worse.
If you were on the M4 headed for the M25 you were going UP the M4. Plus what is more dangerous; feeling tetchy at a lane hog or undertaking? Agree re big cars and parking .

I know where you are coming from, it's just not something that bothers me unless somebody is driving dangerously slow. It's called a speed limit, not a recommended rate of travel. ;)

I am surprised that somebody as busy and important as your good self does not pay a chauffeur. You can then work while being driven.

Yeh, but it’s become the accepted norm, roughly, for how fast we drive where applicable. I drive the same road to and from work everyday and it’s a nightmare, huge queues of people trying to get to work held up by a day tripper off to the garden centre

Al, I'm assuming that's you in this pic who took this selfie:

I refuse to believe that anybody who has such a sunny looking disposition, and rosy plump red cheeks is even REMOTELY capable of losing his sh.t in a road rage incident! 😜
 
That cup decal suggests more an 'A' than an 'I'. So if the guy with the black backpack moves a bit closer and to the right a bit suddenly that declaration reads much differently.
