..I know of a situation when that created a 'stalemate' and both drivers got a book out and started to read it, refusing to move/give way...incredible ...

In other words, he doesn't want to have to slow down if someone gets in his way, he would rather cars have to slow down and pile up behind him then be in anyway inconvenienced himself. Imo, cyclists should be penalized for using the road when there's a cycle lane available

Oh yeah, especially when they're expecting you to reverse back around a corner

..yeah that's what I thought/and said because there is a place where you have to cross the road as the cycling lane is on both sides and you have to 'change' sides halfway through..(does that makes sense..)..and having to stop and wait for traffic on a relatively busy road just wouldn't do at all...I also hate it when they weave lanes in town and don't stop or go on the curb at traffic lights...

I know it's nothing to do with cars but those tents on a stick cyclists put their kids in.... Why are they allowed?

Cyclists on the road. Get off it!!

Tailgaters - I don't see the point of it to be honest, it just makes me slow down to about 15mph while I watch and laugh at them raging through my rear view mirror

People that don't indicate

People that don't 'let you out' next time you're out watch for the type of cars that do this, its always the people driving the executive type cars that wont let you out. Wankers!

People who think its funny to press the button on the crossing after they've used it, so as they're walking down the road they're laughing at you sat at a red light with nobody crossing.

Other drivers. All of them.

I do this as well, or keep putting my foot on the brakes, that usually solves the problem :joker:

PEOPLE WHO DONT INDICATE!!!!!
people who drive so close to me that when I actually pull in they pull in behind me
PEOPLE WHO DONT INDICATE!!!!! YES AGAIN big pet peeve of mine

I take people tailgating as a challenge so try and speed up and get away from them

But thats what they want you to do. Its far more satisfying to slow down. They will either sit there going red in the face and screaming or over take you, at which point you can laugh at them as they pass.

..my OH says that, especially when they are police cars...

..oh and the other thing is, people who still drive when they're on the phone and don't use headsets..(even when they do, they're still distracted..)...and also the ones who do stop to use it but they don't wait and pull over properly where there is a proper place but just stop in the road to take or make a phone call...pfffft....

I too slow down for tailgaters and when they try to overtake I speed up. Lol

People who are turning right and they don't leave enough room for cars carrying straight on.
People who don't indicate.
Taxi Drivers - they really annoy me. The other day some taxi driver just stopped in the middle of a busy road and had a chat with some guy on the pavement and I couldn't go round him because I was near the roundabout and couldn't reverse onto it.
When I'm on National Speed Limit roads and someone is driving at like 30mph.
When people don't turn their full beam lights off when they pass you.
When people don't thank you when you let them out.
Single lane roads. I was once on this horrible road that was only big enough for one car, and it was really steep and windy, and I came to this car and he expected me to reverse back quite a way so he could pass, when there was a passing point right next to him!!
Selfish drivers.
When I'm trying to turn right onto a road, the people on the main road don't let you out and block you in, when they could've left a small gap for me.
People who wait in Keep Clear areas...

Basically drivers in general.. I always get mad when I drive. :mad:

:worship::evilgrin:

For Tailgaters, I keep my right foot on the accelerator and activate the brake lights with my left foot.
