Car driving standards

[N1985]

**** at the roundabout deciding he's in the wrong lane so decides to swerve right over on the roundabout missing me by inches then exits roundabout at about 60 mph. Never a police car about when you need one is there.

There's a big roundabout near me that has a bus lane run through the middle of it, with the regular traffic controlled by lights on the roundabout. Just watched someone go straight through the red lights despite stopped traffic to the inside and outside and almost get T-boned by the bus, who had to slam on the brakes to miss him. How do you miss a set of red lights and a bus moving at speed?

I’ve said this for years, people should have to re take a driving test at least every 10 years and every 5 years when you hit 60.

The roads are full of blind dementia addled FOCs who passed their test on a horse and cart during the war and are still allowed to be let loose on modern roads in modern cars. It’s insane.

They’re far more of a menace than young drivers. 17 year old new drivers get a bad rep in my opinion.

That would just be an insurance issue to sort out and your company would just hold the bad driving of the other bloke to account? A police car wouldnt have solved that problem. The police cars you see are going from call to call, and the rare traffic cars you will see are probably going to fatal accidents or some big event that will be affecting the infrastructure on road networks. Bumps due to twats who cant drive are for insurance companies, no?

Another moron in the wrong lane at a junction, just decides to swerve into my lane without indicating or realising I'm there. These idiots are always in shit cars as well.

Get a dashcam I have front and back now they should be standard on all cars now or no insurance, saves a lot of hassle should someone hit you. You can even send video into police now and they will prosecute people on phones bad driving etc.

This evening a bloody van driver reversed into my car.
Second time I have a van reverse into me when driving.
Both drivers did the same thing reversing backwards to let a car through. Both just reversed into me, thankfully no damage to my car. Both blamed me as the couldn't see me. I pointed out if you can't see behind you shouldn't reverse.
Kin hell I drive a B class so it's not a small car !

I'm really getting the fuckin rage with taxi drivers at the minute.
They are either driving too slow, not indicating, just pulling over or just pulling out in front of you.
I had this dickhead just indicate and pull out right in front of me when I was doing 30. I was in the van from work with a bit of weight in the back and managed to stop. I pulled up alongside him at the lights at sheepfoot Lane next to heaton park, put my window down and said what you doing?

You know what the cheeky **** said? Where is my respect for him. What the actual fuck? I actually burst out laughing. I said I can't just stop at the drop of a hat, it doesn't work like that. I also said thank your lucky stars I wasn't some nobhead who wanted to get out of his vehicle and kick the shit out of you and your car.

Un fuckin believable.

Drink and drugs probably help

Ive had similar drama with taxis and a few times with delivery wankers. I always just ask a question that needs an answer; 'youre a professional driver arent you? What the fuck was that about then?'. Normally leads to the kind of confused rage people have no answer to
