Nissan Note
« on: 23 August 2013, 19:53:08 »

Whats up with the people that buy these - or is it the cars that don't go over 50mph? Got stuck behind loads recently, and when you do get the chance to overtake they try and baulk you and wave their fists!  There seems to be more and more on the roads,

Even got behind one on the M1 the other day, driving straddled the middle and outside lanes at 50mph.  When I managed to squeeze by him, he waved his fist at me and the queue behind me.  Where's a copper when you need one.

And to cap it all there was one of the buggers blocking my double drive when I got in this morning - plenty of room to park elsewhere.  Managed to find the owner and gave him a mouthful!  Idiots.

Actually, had a particularly bad example of the amateur overtaking stasi the other day. Following some cr@p soft-roader doing 45MPH on an A road. Came up to a long straight, couldn't see past the mobile roadblock in front (do they design them purposely to reduce the possibility of seeing ANY of the road ahead these days?), so poked my nose out.. Nope. 'fraid not. Car about 500 yds up the road coming the other way, and closing moderately fast. Oh, well. Back in and wait.

Numpty coming the other way is on the horn, the main beams, gesticulating wildly. FFS! It just had a look! Is just thinking about an overtake banned now? I just picked a random Monty Python French taunting gesture and tried it on him as he passed.  :D

I was going down the A5 dual carriageway in Milton Keynes the other day, and got stuck behind a tractor overtaking a fraggin' car. WTF?
