So how did you know he wanted to turn in then?

You see, they may be cocks, but at least they are predicatable
It was fairly obvious Steve. Car was a BMW, stopped outside a BMW garage, holding up a line of cars behind, waiting for a gap in traffic, and looking at aforementioned BMW garage.

I think there was a slight arrogance to it - like "you peasants should know where I want to go"

Top 3 worst drivers:

1) Audi
2) BMW
3) Astra (for some strange reason) is this the poor man's rep car?
Any Daewoo, and top of the list is Nissan Micra.

Always the finest displays of poor driving.

I drive like an arrogant bastard in my BMW, then again I drove the same way in my S2000's.

Funnily enough I do the same in my Astra

BMW, Audi, 4x4 and more recently Volvo FFS. I regularly see them driving like they own the place...like a complete and utter twunt...far too fast, right up everyone's arse...

...If they insist on hanging onto my rear bumper, they can crack on, but I'll continue to let the gap ahead of me increase

I was thinking this morning.

The vast majority of bad drivers have encountered, are actually the older generation of driver. Mostly 40 plus.

Anyone else agree?

There are so many shit drivers on the road it is hard to see if they are of a certain age.
I'd say most middle lane sitters are 40+ plus though.

True.

I followed a woman in an X5, for about 5 miles on the M3, pitch black, and she didn't have her lights on.

Myself and others flashed at her continually. People got in front and put the hazards on. But no response!

Eventually she put them on.

As she passed me I noticed her son looking very embarassed in the passenger seat.

How the **** can you not realise your lights are off on a quiet motorway?!
