The worst drivers on the road are clearly 50mph driving, middle lane owing, phone wedged to lughole, white van drivers who, more often than not, are oblivious to the frustrated lorry driver six inches off their bumper brigade. All male, obviously. Closely followed by school run mums, teenage girls in Lupos who have no idea what the inside lane is for, the M5 summertime caravan brigade (no, there's no way you're going to be able to overtake each other at 50 and 51mph respectively whilst going uphill, you retards) and very obviously, BMW drivers.

I'll go with all of that. Spot on
Oh, and old people who are way past being able to cope with driving any more but won't give up.

we have what seems like millions of older drivers in our village who seem oblivious to the right of way rule where parked cars are involved..i have many a time had to evacuate towards a kurb (which i normally try and stay at least a mile from) to avoid a steamrollering silver fox....

Sorry guys but you're all completely wrong

The French hold a total & world wide monopoly on cretinism behind the wheel, it's a matter of national pride

There may be worse drivers in other countries or even more dangerous drivers, but I'm afraid you just can't beat the French when it comes to stupidity !

Every time you think you've just seen the most moronic bit of driving ever some other gimp in a peugeot diesel comes along & betters it

lol Cheers poppit.

I have to 110% agree with this whole situation of lorries/caravans et al overtaking another lorry doing 55mph uphill by going 55.0001mph in the middle lane. Utter utter stupidity. It essentially becomes a mobile traffic jam as dozens of cars pile up behind waiting for the idiot to get by then pull in...after 100 miles they will be a total of 7.3 seconds ahead of the lorry they overtook.

People who drive crap astra's and the like driving at 70+ up your backside then when you pull over they barely have the grunt to get by.

Or even worse, as you pull in past the vehicle you were overtaking, said tailgating numpty pulls in right behind you again driving so close that you'd struggle to fit a fag paper in the space between yours and their car.

May I also add to my hate list:

People on motorways who overtake you, pull in front and then decelerate so you now have to overtake them to keep your speed constant.
Lane hoggers.
People who pull out to overtake a good three miles before they need to, then drive so slow the temptation to undertake is almost unbearable.
Drivers who don't acknowledge you when you've done them a good turn.
Women who drive so badly they make me ashamed of my gender. (usually accompanied by cries of 'oh ffs; would you like me to park that for you???')
People who've driven really s l o w l y for miles, but who speed up just as there's a great overtaking opportunity.

There's more, but I should stop now before I get accused of it being off games week...

Slightly off topic but still relevant to add

Cyclists who think its ok to go through a red light because 'it looks safe to do so'.
Numpties that drive dangerously and cause you to take evasive action to avoid them hitting other cars (eg dumb stupid taxi driver again driving crap car overtakes me on a single lane road in a 30 zone approaching a blind hump bridge and I have to emergency brake and allow him in front of me when a car appears in the opposite direction over said bridge and creating a head on collision situ).
People who should wear driving gloves with R and one hand and L on the other so when at a roundabout the know which side they have to give way at...even when you emergency stop and horn they just look straight ahead and blank you and carry on like they are the only ones on the road.
Sorry ladies - but also women doing make up, some of the most ridiculous incidents I have seen have been while watching a woman rooting around with their head in the glove box while doing 30 mph in a built up area.

Quality thread. Currently considering letting a chick drive my new R. What u all reckon???

I reckon if you can call her a chick to her face and she doesn't retaliate with a stiletto and/or go at your paintwork with nail polish remover you should be ok.

Lol noted deb will see how the chat goes!

lets be honest it could be worse it could be a dealer monkey

only issue i have with women drivers is when they use 95 instead of 99/V Power, a public shaming at Revo HQ has rectified this situation in our house

Classic! its been a rubbish day today but thats has totally made up for it..

Can I add to the list of annoying people.. drivers who pull out of junctions without looking because someone else has given way to them. (When they are turning right of course, if it was left then it wouldn't be an issue)
My car nearly met it demise due to this today managed to stop about 7inches from the car that just pulled out.

Drivers who sit on yellow box junctions at traffic lights.....blocking the way forward when the lights change to green

Taxi drivers who think it is their god given right to speed everywhere cos they are 'professional' drivers (i use the term professional very loosely).


Women drivers who..........joking!

this happened to me this morning. The yellow box is there for a reason. Why the feck do people stop in
it when u can't get thru, and block all the cars who are about to come thru. Makes me angry. Didn't resort to any horn blaring tho.

Love that one with the women trying to park her car, this way and that for ages, and then the bloke almost drags her out and parks it staright away.

Actually did something quite similar myself one morning. Mind you suddenly hearing the sound of a baby in the back did surprise me a bit at the time.

In the rear view mirror comes a set of headlights in the fast lane way back, normally a BMW X5 or its crappy baby X3. Sits there mile after mile overtaking thin air.

Since having cruise on my car you really notice someone pulling out, overtaking you then pulling back in for them to then slow down forcing you to either overtake or cancel the cruise. Its amazing how people struggle to do a constant speed.

Saw the cops pull over an EasyBus last night on the A3, the driver (most probably a woman ;-) ) tailgated me as I cruised along on the inside lane then belted past me at about 65 in a 50 with the cops sat right behind it. They even pulled out and sat in the rear view mirror to give it a chance to slow down but it blatantly ignored them and eventually they hauled its sorry ass over - was quite funny.

+1

My pet hates at the moment are cyclists going through red lights or weaving on/off the pavement, lorries overtaking on hilly sections of dual carriageways, people that think hazard lights are a substitute for brainless parking, disabled badge holders that park on double yellows and drivers that hog the middle or right hand lane on motorways for no reason whatsoever.
