For me it's also those MPV/4x4's driven by Mummy that is holding everyone else up. I'm sure these vehicles come with a "Brat on board" sticker straight from the factory these days.

Micras round here 
I personally don't mind being behind someone who is taking it careful on the B roads because as Gad said, to them they may be going flat out. I try and remember what it was like in my Citreon 1.5D and I use to take a corner at 20mph instead of what I take it at now in my S
Pet hate is still lane hoggers or people who go to / from work in dim light and don't put on their lights

Jazz central round my way with lots of old biddies taking it easy. To be fair to them, most at least keep up with the speed limit. The real slowcoaches are the seriously old men, usually in Kia Picantos.
Followed one the other day and he never got above 20 mph on what is quite a busy road. Bordering on dangerously slow ...

Unless they're driving n a 30 mph zone, and then they will be doing at least 40. It always amazes me how the very people that complain about others speeding near their kids merrily waft along in oblivious to those of others

Not too bothered about people driving slow, however if they can clearly see thay are holding traffic up then pull over and let traffic pass.
Or they drive slow (usually 42mph) and continue at 42mph in a 30. rolleyes:
The law in California requires drivers of slow vehicles on certain roadsto pull over if 8 or more cars behind. Not a bad idea. :

That's the thing; They also do 42 on the motorway & rile all the wagon drivers.
Half of them are completely oblivious to what they're doing and would get terribly self-righteous about everyone else 'speeding' without a trace of irony.
Mind you, the other half probably think the gearlever's a bog brush & the armrest is a loo roll, dozy farqhuars...
