Anyone got any?

Anyone trying to change any?

I'm terrible for clutch down and coasting to roundabouts and junctions then picking a gear and re-engaging, should always have it in gear in case I need to move quickly.

Keep trying to tell my left foot lol

Overtaking people. I like doing it

30 mph in first

late breaking
coasting uphill
5th reguarly

1st to 5th
2nd to 5th
wrong gearing on set off
ie 2nd 3rd 5th

didnt ask enouth questions when was learning to drive

when overtaking doing it as fast as possible
shame its mainly busses

i swear alot
get a bit too close when people do 2 mph under speed limit

use my screenw ash too much
about 1 gallon every thoughtnight atmo

but i do give learners a wide birth
i find an alternative route

Theres an honest post lol

I also go through gallons of screenwash

Ah yeah shouting at people who cant drive is quite common with me aswell. Shouting at people who drive 40 everywhere regardless of speed limit. Just general road rage i suppose.

I tend to drive at 40 at nights and in ice lol, not the most confident of drivers in bad conditions but then I have only had my liscence for 6 months:yum:

i drive at speed limit at night
during day it varys on my mood

Obviously if the conditions require it then fine but driving at 40mph everywhere on nice days does my tits in.

Picking my nose and eating it

Screaming at people

Using the horn and flashing my lights as well as screaming at people

Driving without both hands on the wheel

Cutting bends on country roads at night

Going onto and around roundabouts at speed to catch joining traffic out and give them the horn

Slamming my brakes on when being tailgated

Keeping to the speedlimit when the person behind obviously needs to go faster

Tailing outside lane hoggers, and eventually flashing them

Undertaking middle lane hogs.

But my good habits include always indicating, and being conciderate to cyclists that obey the highway code

i do this one
Keeping to the speedlimit when the person behind obviously needs to go faster
as long as im doing bang on speed limit

I tend to drop to 5mph below it just to wind them up if they sitting on my tail with their lights blinding me.

Usually some sales rep in a beemer or VW

Wow they are both my biggest problems coasting and then get into second for roundabout left foot to the floor re engage gear and then go

Another big problem of mine is turning the steering wheel when going round the corner with the ball of the hand, the steering is just to light on a panda when cornering

lol i reverse park like that

Lol. I've nearly hit the wall in the drive to many times doing that! how I never have hit it I'll never know. Not that I'm complaining. Dad's hit it twice, but fair do's he mind was else where on one of the occassions as I was in the passenger seat with sever concussion.

Being too cautious when parking, if I cant make it easily then I reverse and line up, 2 bites at it is free, getting chips away out because you've done a boo boo isn't. Also same applies when parrallel parking I'm very careful with my alloys (I drop mirror closest to kerb and watch it in).
Playing with other cars, just giving the odd burst of throttle coming out of the rounderbouts when someone is right on my ass (usually a corsa or saxo).
Holding my lane I.e. if someone has gone all the way to the end of contraflow I would ram them before letting them in, trying to work on this tho!

I read somewhere that doing this (going up to the end) actually helps with the traffic flow. So I now do this as common practise. I also let people merge in turn now also

I know I know...hence why i'm working on it..

Apparently sitting anywhere with your foot on the clutch is bad for the clutch, even fully depressed - reading on the internet the other day.

I probably get too much road rage, at bad drivers in general - not that I'm a perfect driver, but some people are crap on the roads and I dont think people respect driving, and other road users, enough.

I can understand not letting people in on the contraflows when they're being stupid - like just last night some bloke sat in the outside lane behind me all along the dual carriageway, and once he saw it came togethr decided actually he wanted to be past me. I wasnt very inclined to let him in. Equally when someones ahead of me, I would let them merge in front of me. Whats with people on the inside lane that speed up to try to prevent you merging in front of them, even when the traffic is staggered so everyone merges in turn and you've been driving along ahead of them, waiting for the contraflow to merge?? :ban:

If someones to close behind me I always say 'Look how far this guy is up my ass'

Sounds gay, but it makes my point!

Plus I always try to pull off to fast and the 55bhp engine canny cope!

late breaking

road rage (more so when a passenger)

forgetting the speed limit on my road is a 30mph now not a 40:bang:

not using the handbrake i tend to hold it by the clutch and brake instead

obsessive mirror checking (not really a bad habbit but still a habbit)


theres probably others but they are the only ones i can think of
