Why do Some Drivers Think

[ojread2]

.. that supermarket carp park markings do not apply to them?

Just had a minor argument with a woman (!) who I decided to ask why she thought she shouldn't have given way to me at the give way markings on her side?
Apparently I speeded up - huh?? Irrelevant really, but if I had I'd have hit her
What is it with bad driving these days? I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I expect the person coming towards to at least have a licence!

Yup, I had some idiot take the back corner of my bumper off in a supermarket car park cos he cut the corner! Fortunately for me I had a witness ! :) Not to mention the devil mothers who will punch you if you so much at attempt to park in a child/parent space lol !

Devil mothers LOL.

Then there are the people who choose to cross just before the proper zebra crossing then give you the finger if you beep your horn at them ! Madness!

[joggerjayne]

Supermarket car park markings are just for general guidance ...

They're not really binding.

i also know some people who believe 'the arrows are only for injuns'!

Never mind the drivers what about the car washers? They park their flippin trolleys wherever they please, so people have to walk out into the traffic to get round them. Why not just designate an area where people actually want to have their cars cleaned can go....?

[tonyav]

LOL @ jj.

[Jeza]

The Iceland car park where I live is the pits. No one takes notice of the one way system. The spaces are all skew wiff . People, kids and trolleys everywhere. A nightmare.

[ojread2]

so, if someone hit you JJ you'd just tell them that?
It's drivers who have that attitude that just do what has been described in all of the above

[paddywak]

PP, are they the same devil mothers who think it's ok to block the roads outside schools because their little darlings are incapable of walking more then two yards to school?

[tonyav]

I think they must be paddywak.

[Purple_Popple]

Ha, the very same Paddywak ! ;)

Some of the most dangerous are those who race around the car park as if the place were empty! These idiots don't drive round carefully at walking pace aware people are wandering around with trolleys, small children could dash out from between cars, other cars are manoeuvering etc. No - speed is king for these people! They'll race around and if you don't get out of their way then it's your fault if they hit you! It's alarming to often see that they are the same young women who race around breaking all the speed limits - with a child seat in the front seat and a dangly sign in the back saying "Beware - child on board!" No 30mph for them!

Well the only way to survive here is to go on the assumption that everyone else in the car park is a complete berk. You'll be right most of the time but once or twice you'll be pleasantly surprised. At least by looking both ways when pulling out onto a one-way section, you'll be aware of the berk going the wrong way.

It's alright saying "it wasn't my fault - I had right of way" when you're in hospital with a broken back and nobody is paying your bills because you didn't take the stupidity of the great unwashed into account.
