What are your motoring prejudices?

[Kayless]

I'm not trying to start an argument here, hopefuly an amusing discussion but what are your motoring prejudices, ie things you dislike but with no good reason but you have a reason even though to most it's not a reason at all.
eg: Front wheel drive is the work of Satan, because the front wheels already do the steering and most of the breaking and cars should be driven from behind.

Everybody on the road, other than me, is a complete cretin.

Getting stuck behind some dawdling idiot usually in a Nissan Micra on a slip road trying to enter motorway at 30mph joining traffic doing 70mph+. Once undertook on the hard shoulder so didn't end up stopped behind the numpty who actually stopped at the bottom of the sliproad I wonder how long he was there!

Strange how we all think as flip_flop does.

[flip_flop]

Quite, Tony.

Oiks who cant afford a decent number plate ...so move the letters about to make a name.....then have their name printed underneath to give us a clue.................

Furry dice, they haven't completely been binned after all these years, and what good are they except for obscuring your view of the road?

I always go by the motto "Beware Of The Three Cs":

Coppers
Cameras
and
People who drive too slowly in front of you.

I'd never buy a green car and I always expect cars with those fish things on will need overtaking.

[pretty_snowdrop]

I have a big black German car... I am quite chuffed it annoys some people lol

[Purple_Popple]

Me neither Prudie, I was always told green cars are unlucky, or do you mean 'green' as in environmental, not the colour ??
My grievances are :-
1. Middle lane hoggers
2. Drivers who dont indicate - or cant be bothered - are we just meant to guess where they are going?
3. 'Baby on Board', 'Princess on Board' notices...grrrrrr who cares.
4. Cars with 'Powered by Fairy Dust' plastered all over them
5. Drivers in the RH lane at roundabouts who then go straight on cutting you up
6. Drivers who dont say thank you for letting them out
7. Drivers who want a lift in your boot in the fast lane of the motorway cos you just arent going fast enough!
8. Motorcyclists who think they own both sides of the road and weave in and out overtaking at will
9. Drivers who dont have a clue there is an emergency vehicle up their a@@ waiting to get past !

[Prudie]

Yes PP I mean colour green is unlucky. It's an inherited superstition that I wouldn't risk ignoring.

[Andyvon]

Really Ludwig!

Leaning across the reach the steering wheel is not the idea of having a left-hand drive car! The whole point is that your passenger does all the steering!

[gollysailor]

Am I too late?
People who park on their off-side, your near-side, and leave their headlights on.
People who forget to turn off their foglights.

[Booldawg]

people in front of you who stop at a red light and spend the next 2 minutes moving forward a yard at a time closer to the car in front of them. This leaves a big gap between you and them and makes you look silly unless you close the gap as well.

And pedal cyclists who, in the dark winter nights(and mornings) wear dark clothing, have no lights on their bikes .
