I was heading towards a traffic light controlled roundabout last night on my way home from work. I had come out of a natyional and was heading to the lights at around 30mph since they were on green. Then this bloody woman in corsa decided it would be intelligeant to pull out of the right hand lane, infront of me and stop dead coz she wanted to get in the far right hand lane. I had to slam my brakes on in the pouring rain and nearlly smashed into her. I got that angry that I hurt myself smacking the horn at her.
I hate it when people see a smaller car and decide to dominate the road, really does my nut in.

I need some Cinq sun visors, if anyone has any please e-mail me or PM me!
 
i find it worse on motorways.
people see a little cinq over taking them and they can stand it. so they over take you then slam there brakes on.

whos is the little red fiat?
 
Yeah, know that feeling....but I still love the "how the fook is that thing going that fast" looks...

Pedal to the metal? ....My Gearbox is on the floor!!!
 
I get really annoyed by people who do this! If they want to overtake so they can go faster I wish they would just keep on going. But no, then you have to overtake them again to keep up your current speed, then they feel they have to get in your way and somehow stop you from overtaking them so you have to slam the brakes on, inconveniencing the poor person behind you. And I haven't even got that small a car but people seem to do it to me [V].
 
Corsa drivers. Grrrrrrr [:(!]

Can I add Ford Puma drivers to the list of most hated? The cars themselves are quite nice, it's just the bimbos that drive them that are the problem, driving at 40 in a 60 zone, then 40 again in a 30 zone, then cutting you up when it's their fault for getting in the wrong lane because they were so busy checking their lippy in the mirror aaaaggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh.
 
another hate, jeeps on the school run! now they're dangerous! was....

I get the same every day by a nice silver astra cabriolet with a deadly woman who is more bothered about mobile, kids, laptop (?) makeup etc. than being on the wrong side of the road full of school kids everywhere. When I see her I literally give her right of way EVERY time (she drops her kids off about the same time as i arrive to school and it is a small road with cars parked all around). I expect if i didn't give way I would be dead by now!

Some of the worse drivers are in my peer group at school... give a 17 year old girl wiith more money than sense a nice new punto and stand back.

I also got undertaken then cut up by a Fiat Doblo mpv thing today, very annoyed!
 
undertaking annoys me when theres no need for it. But when you're driving along on a national and someoen decides they'll drive in the right hand lane at 40mph it really raggles me so i have to.
By all means drive like that but on the left hand side of the road not the right!

School runs annoy me too, if a mum cuts infront of you when she's on the school run and you get angry with her, its your fault for existing!

I need some Cinq sun visors, if anyone has any please e-mail me or PM me!

Well in this particular case I was in the third lane which went down to 2 on the Nottingham ring road. I always use that lane as people seem to sit in the line for 3 mins and if you just take that you can get clear through it. Only trouble is you sometimes have a bit of troube getting into the second lane due to a jealous person. It's the best lane because you cross into a second set of traffic lights in about 30metres which turn slightly after the ones you are in. There is rarely any traffic in the third lane in that due to the position of where cars come from. You can therefore avoid them slowing you down also.

Sorry about that, it is a very difficult and odd junction to explain. In this case, there was an Escort TD infront of me and usually people in this lane go quickly to get infront before the rest can catch up. Unfortunately the escort was knackered (black smoke pouring out) and I was caught behind it, I got up to 40mph (this is the maximum speed limit and if you go above this you are pracitically certain to get a ticket) but he decided to slow down and hence I had to about 35 then he changed to a right lane and I went forward and this Doblo which was behind me by about 15 metres came along side, also doing 40 preventing me from getting it.

Not really his fault but just a little mean because he knew I needed to get back into that lane and there really was no need!

Enough ranting and confusion.

COmpletely agree about taxis. You never feel like you can say to the guy "can we go a bit slower?" because you would never get there. I once got to the station in Nottingham from my house - which is a 15 minute trip on a normal day in 4 (yes, 4) minutes and the guy was so proud with this fact he smiled when he said "quick aint i eh?"

We did some of the chicanes (traffic calming..) quicker than I would like to remember.
 
BMW drivers are the worst. They almost always are c**ts and drive like c**ts. I had two tailgate then undetake me today when I was already going just over the speed limit.

I know this is verging on sexism but I find the biggest problem is with 20 something ladies or men with high disposable incomes, a silver audi TT and a clear lack of driving ability. They often seem to have too much power in their car and too much on their mind.

Just noticed from my limited driving experience.
 
i'd have to say someone driving a fast car fast isn't as dangerous as driving a slow car fast

Met Cognac 99 Brava 100 HSX, wish it'd clean itself!

Since this is turning into a general hate thread..... I just hate poseurs full stop, male or female. Like everyone ele, I also seriously dislike people who hog the middle or right hand lane so you either have to drive AROUND them or undertake to get past them. Why? I also dislike people who drive around all the time with full beam headlights on and dazzle me.

I like considerate drivers who stick to the rules of the road....ish.
 
I also hate people who have their fog lights on 5 mins after the first sign of darkness. There is no need, they look stupid and can be very blinding - especially when incorrectly aimed.

Maybe some of you drive with them on? Please don't. Not only does it annoy me - i don't have fogs - but it is also illegal unless visability is serverely reduced, i.e. fog.

End of public announcement.
