Really Bad Things

[Nebbiolo]

Neb, i bet your driving Miss Daisey...



Me an Cal would be right up your arse...

Bear in mind that you'd get the "touching the brake" treatment and the "I'll speed up and not let you pass" treatment whenever you push me too far. Obviously if I can see in my mirror that you're a big hard [Poor language removed] I'm more amiable as to doing what you require!

I don't care how fast or slow people drive, just get rid of those stupid stickers on cars telling me you've got kid's on board or you slow down for horses. What do they think I'm going to do about it. I'm not going to deliberatly crash into anyones car sticker or not.

No breast feeding in the middle lane of the motorway, that's what the slow lane is for.

That's nothing compared to the "Little People on Board" one. FFS.

ANGRY YOUNG DRIVERS WHO THINK THAT IF IT SAYS "30" THEN YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY DO 30, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A HOUSING ESTATE WITH SMALL CHILDREN PLAYING/RETURNING FROM SCHOOL. THESE SAME DRIVERS ARE USUALLY FOUND COMPLAINING ABOUT INSURANCE COSTS.

people who use their phone without a handsfree, . guy near me drives a top spec range rover sport, which probably has one built in yet he holds it to his ear constantly.
i was driving through salford one day when a huge bentley came up behind me, with the reg "GR", first thoughts were "that ramsey tw@" the bloke (not him) was talking away on one of those jewel encrusted phones that are about £15grand, i put the window down as he was next to me at the lights, he rolled his down i said "do you realise a headset is only about 8 quid nowadays, he smirked and said "what would i want 1 of those for?". i pointed out that if he even veered towards me and my kids whilst on the phone then a headset would be the only way he could communicate with his phone as i would shove it so far up his arse that bluetooth would be the only method of communication, i then told him his car was a lump and i'd rather have an aston.

There's a speed limit for a reason, mate.

And it's to bring in free flowing roads, not have some tits doing 20 in a 30 ffs.

it is a maximum limit not a "required speed" and it is to prevent death and carnage and not what you proport it to be. if you wish to go faster than them then overtake. when one day you have kids then you will change your opinion, i guarantee it.
i'm not saying that i never speed but for me doing 30 around an estate where kids play is just irresponsible. my solution for tailgaters, wait till th lights then put my 4wd in reverse and go right back to the bonnet of their car, then ask if they would like me to make it resemble a hedgehog in the gutter. novas, corsas etc get the obligatory |" i will drive over your bonnet if you like, i have a tenner to pay cash for the damage."

Why the [Poor language removed] do people do that?

By all means stick to the limit if you want but if someone behind you wants to go quicker & has the opportunity to overtake, just let them so everyone can get on with their journey. What do you gain by speeding up to try to stop them overtaking? All it does is reduces the chance of the other person being able to safely overtake & annoys the hell out of them

Some fella did it to me ages ago but my car was far quicker than his so I was able to easily get past him regardless, made me want to smash his face in though

Perhaps because someone behind them has been tailgating despite the fact that the front driver was already doing the legal limit. In other words, the driver behind has effectively been trying to shove the front driver out of his way. It's a deserved punishment that ought to be applied when it is safe to do so.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

People who say ''slow drivers cause more accidents than fast drivers''.
That kind of twisted logic makes me seethe. It's like saying ''women cause rape''. Ffs!

So the person behind them is dangerously tailgating because they want to drive quicker, then they move out to overtake & the person who was driving slower speeds up, increasing the chances of the overtaker running out of road & smashing into oncoming traffic?

1 of 2 things would happen in that situation - either the tailgater would become more determined to get past & may carry on with the move even if it means getting dangerously close to oncoming traffic when initially there had been a lot more room, or they'd have to slow down & then would still be stuck behind the car they'd been tailgating only now they know they had a chance to go past but the car in front stopped them for no apparent reason, this would almost certainly lead to even more tailgaiting & possibly cause the driver to try to force their way past, even if it was unsafe to do so

I hate tailgaters as much as anyone but if you just let the [Poor language removed] get past, they can get on with their journey without you slowing them down, you can get on with yours without the knobhead sitting on your bumper

Liverpool fans, especially those quoting "five European Cups laaaa" and "you bitter Evertonians"

Who's bitter? they hate Man U more than Sheites hate Sunnies.

 

[Seamus Colemole]

I agree with all the slagging off of asshole drivers. I'm sure tailgating has increased over the last year or so. Or maybe it never used to bother me but these days it drives me crazy.

As for driving well below the speed limit when its perfectly safe to drive at the speed limit, [Poor language removed] that annoys me. Especially as you can guarantee that pretty much every day on my way home from work that when i go through Wroxham which is a 40 limit and we leave Wroxham and enter a 60mph zone that the car in front will stay at 40 mph, maybe going up to 50mph if i'm very very lucky.

Every [Poor language removed] day on my way home this happens and i just cannot work out why. Its always on that part of road but there's no reason for it, its a perfectly decent good bit of A road and you can safely speed up and do 60 like when leaving villages in other places.

Kopite turks, in the local kebab shop when am bladdered, i go in and taunt them chorusing "grand old team" and "follow follow...." to be kicked out and told i wont be served. Thats a bad thing

 

[TsarDiniyar]

People who leave red rep for me saying "sprouts are bad" on the "really bad things" thread. They're bad.

 

[TsarDiniyar]

Silly hype over England International matches, more an annoying thing than a bad thing

Kudos for mentioning kebabs though.
