i find some dawdlers just have a set speed of 45.. they do this through the nice little villages and on the empty nsl

for me that demonstrates the oblivious nature of their driving

a village with horses, dogs, kids, grannies is not the same as an nsl

i'm no angel, but niether do i pull these dimwits over, flash my lights or rant and rave, i leave them to do as they see fit.. until they stick their main beam on

basically it boils down to spite as gad alluded, they are unhappy with their miserable existence and want to take it out on anyone and everyone at every chance they get

Exactly that reason - they should signal their exit off the roundabout. So say I'm going straight on and they are coming from my right but turning left, therefore not crossing my path, they should indicate their intention. One of my questions on my driving test was what are roundabouts for and the answer is to keep the traffic flowing. By not indicating you are doing exactly the opposite and causing the traffic to come to a standstill.

 

Good find!

I'll add it to my signature.

Misunderstood your original post, sorry!

 

Well that's you off the Xmas card list

 

Mock The Week last week:

"Casual racism..it's like indicating on roundabouts - it's a generational thing"

 

Where are their knobs before then? I can only assume that these tail-gating knob-wavers are driving automatics..

 

They're quite a breed, aren't they?

They see it as a heroic pursuit - "I am such a driving legend that not even this crapmobile can limit me".

They are entirely wrong of course - and therefore it is entirely likely that their aspiration is indeed a big shiny thing that doesn't really go round corners, drinks like a fish, isn't really taken off road and although it's twice the size of a Fiesta, has less room in the back and fewer seats.

I suspect that making the Spurt even less than the package it ought to be by making it a coupe would be their ultimate wet dream.

 

 

Every single day without fail, I am stuck behind a car doing 40 in a 60. This is the cause of my frustration. I usually come up behind people doing 50. However I understand that as being acceptable, and annoyance is my own problem.

Lorry doing 40 fair enough, it's their speed limit.

Transit vans doing 50, ditto.

But cars at 40. They should not be on the road.
