Back to the roads, middle lane hoggers especially taxis. Why is the old bill not cracking down on this. Decent lane control means better flowing traffic. Meaning you will get to your destination quicker as well.

when you stop to give way to a police car and they don't bother to acknowledge.

 

What too special for that?

People who hijack threads with "I had exactly the same problem..." And then describe something completely differently.

It wouldn't happen on this forum.....but other forums that I post on

People who have a dozen mates who say they agree/disagree with a particular subject and then go on to explain "my mate who is a solicitor"  to say that I am right and you are all wrong. Like you have conducted a straw poll of your imaginary mates.    Whaaat are you on about....   And what is the relevance of your mate being a solicitor?  Thankfully not on this forum.

Talking about bikes, motorbikes, those twin solid white lines means no overtaking. They are there for a reason, no exemptions.

People who are quite happy to ******* you off and or make up complete ******* behind you back, to their friends, on Facebook etc. But don't have the balls to come out and say it directly to your face and act as if they never said anything.

The exemptions 

 

 

Rule 129

Double white lines where the line nearest you is solid. This means you MUST NOT cross or straddle it unless it is safe and you need to enter adjoining premises or a side road. You may cross the line if necessary, provided the road is clear, to pass a stationary vehicle, or overtake a pedal cycle, horse or road maintenance vehicle, if they are travelling at 10 mph (16 km/h) or less. 

Laws RTA 1988 sect 36 & TSRGD regs 10 & 26

[Spiffingly Good]

Cyclists who decide when and where there going to be a road user, I mean most can quote the highway code to you,but yet fail to follow it ? Red light means stop(even on a bicycle)

Not when there is a car there driving at the speed limit with traffic in front and traffic coming the other way. That is what i am on about. Not all do this but the minority.

[Spiffingly Good]

I guessed that i was just been pedantic for the sake of it...... Really gets my goat when people do that.

Completely agree, they become a pedestrian to get round the red light, then become a road user again.

 

They should all have insurance

Teenagers on mopeds that sit at the lights or at a junction constantly revving the engine... WHY??? Just let it tick over and then pull away when it's time to.

 

Boy racers in cars with loud exhausts that have to rev the engine right up as the pull slowly away.

 

Motorists that drive along a straight clear road with no turnings, no obstacles or other traffic ahead but constantly touch the brakes and drive at a hugely inconstant speed 20mph, 25mph, 15mph suddenly then back to 30 grrrrr
