Anyone who drives a car that looks like that is guilty of a hell of a lot more than poor parking.
It is not just drivers that behave badly on the road, pedestrians jaywalking are another hazard and yesterday I had to dodge a few in Birmingham.
If you had a dog that ugly you'd shave its arse and make it walk backwards.Anyone who drives a car that looks like that is guilty of a hell of a lot more than poor parking.
I always give way to pedestrians, especially if they are elderly or infirm.
The timings are such that these people are unlikely to be able to get across before the green man disappears.
Similar thing happened by the lights between TGF Pizza and The Island on Saturday morning. Lights for the cars had actually gone to green, and luckily for the pedestrian the 2 lanes of traffic she was about to walk across stopped when they saw her. She just sauntered across as though she had the right of way, and seemed oblivious to the fact she could have been under someones wheels .Not bad driving, bad pedestrianing this morning...
Crossing by Asda, the traffic lights had changed clearly back to green, the red man was showing and the cars in the right hand lane were about to move off when a woman walked straight out in front of them crossing the road - didn't even look at the lights

On the way back to our car , at the same spot by those lights a cop car pulled a woman up for going in the wrong lane a bit further back . She just said to him , through her wound down window.."Oh it's ok...I don't come from around here! "
Since tearing my ligaments a few years ago, I do tend to have more patience with people who have started crossing on the green man, the lights change and they can't get over the rest of the way quick enough.
Mad psycho little white haired old lady in a silver fiesta or saxo who tried to drive head first into the side of me on Newport Rd.
I was in the Tesco filter lane at the lights on the Chetwyned side of the rd, little old lady was facing me at the lights on the opposite side of the rd waiting to turn right into Tesco. When the lights changed, instead of following the traffic into Tesco she came diagonaly at the side of my car & tried to squeeze past through completely the wrong entrance, then just shrugged when she realised! ....I thought first that she had lost control of the car....
If you know this person, please stop her driving!
