Examples of poor driving you have witnessed!

I once had to dodge a six-foot-diameter, two-inch-thick frozen puddle that came flying of the roof of a truck like a giant clear Frisbee, whilst I was cycling the other way.

I'm only amazed that it doesn't happen more often.

It could easily have been fatal.

By the time my decapitated body was found, all the evidence would have melted...

Nothing quite as amusing as an impatient twat that doesn’t approve of you going the speed limit, only for them to get stuffed at the lights right after overtaking you.

What’s not shown is the guy was up my bumper for most of Weston Road before this happened so it’s lost a bit of the flair of him deciding to very suddenly pull round and overtake me quite fast (and then be super super eager for the light to go green)

While waiting to turn right off the A513 into the B5066 Sandon direction A large HGV was waiting to turn out to the right. As the road became clear I allowed him to emerge. Much to the rage of the hooting and arm waving disgust of Land Rover driver behind (His flat cap nearly fell off!)
Courtesy? Bah!

The correct procedure there would have been to let everyone out until your light turned red again. Then at the next green, stall. You'd surely have given him a seizure and rid the roads of one-more-tw@t.

There aren't any traffic lights there - yet - just lit bollards.

But, there will be...

Some people just don't understand what yellow cross hatching means do they?

Why not be an absolute cock and totally block anyone from leaving Tesco just because your own exit isn't clear?

There are some places where the hatches cause more problems than they solve (like the top of the high street where they can cause a lot of backing up issues) but these are not one of those hatches

Spouting nonsense since the day I learned to talk
Just wanted to give a shout out to the young woman who stuck her middle finger up at me after I had the audacity to sound my car horn at her after she had gone through the Lammascote lights on full red when I was trying to turn right into Riverway.

I don't understand why some drivers insist on parking at an angle when the rest of the parked cars are perpendicular to the small wall in front of them.

I know it's not illegal but have some consideration for fellow drivers, please.

This idiot in the Rover has managed to occupy two spaces whilst parking like a knob.

in the "old days", the gate there was generally left open, when the field was unoccupied, to avoid regular replacement being necessary.
