Examples of poor driving you have witnessed!

This morning I am abiding by the rules of the road, on my bike (not in lycra, I hate cyclists, I use mine purely for my commute to the train station, thats neither here, nor there though). I have lights on, helmet, I am on the road, I am stopped at the new look roundabout, near the prison again (a constant source of woe for me) at the lights. They are red, the lights for the traffic to my right have turned to amber, immediately the car behind me beeps at me possibly DY52 ADE, big ass white car, I still wait until my light turns to amber, then I am off, said car pulls round on the left of me as I approach the new look set of lights and cuts across me. I pull up to the side of him at New Look and wish him a pleasant morning.

Not driving, as such, but I saw a car with two space-saver spare wheels on today - he was taking his time, true, but he drove past ATS to wherever it was that he was going..

..he also drove past the unmarked cop Volvo, but they were busy with some lad that they'd just pulled up..

Maybe he drove past ATS, because they are a rip off IMO.

No it's not. County Tyres has never been where Malvern Tyres. Nigel and Mick who started County Tryes used to work in that building for the company who where there before Malvern.

County Tyres is round the corner on Astonfields Road.

Ah, right, behind Stafford Carpets - what was the other place called when they were there?

The mad cyclist again.

Earlier this morning he passed me whilst I was stationary at the lights heading towards town by the Toyota garage. As he went past he very kindly told me to feck off and then proceeded to go through the lights on red. This caused a the driver of a car who was proceeding quite legally through the lights from the Asda direction to do an emergency stop. For his trouble, mad cyclist gobbed on his bonnet and carries on. Car driver took exception to this and accelerated hard and pulled up in front of mad cyclist. As mad cyclist is giving probably his best performance to date, car driver gets out of his car (he is bloody huge), walks up to mad cyclist and wallops him, once, knocking him to the ground, gets back in his car and drives off.

Leaving mad cyclist to pick himself up whilst cars are driving past sounding their horns and hurling abuse at him for being in the way.

Even though I had a really good view of what happened, I can't for the life of me remember what the car was or what the driver looked like. Maybe it was wiped from my mind by the huge grin I still can't get off my face...
