almost got into a fight with some dude that was tailgating me when i was doin tha speed limit he was a skinny little p plater gimp. im a p plater too thats why i guess he done it. If u have tha same problem and u want a new S pack boot or sumthin all painted n fitted coz ur old 1s faded make sure tha tailgaters behind ya and slam on tha brakes, if ur insured they will have to pay to get it fixed

even worse when theyre tailgating and then they turn on their highbeams. some ******** did it to me the other night, so i slammed on the brakes, then he stopped doing it

People who fight tooth & nail for the absolute closest parking spot to the shops. I don't get it - by the time they wait for the other guy to get out and then do their parking manouvres, they could have just parked 50m away hassle-free and walked.

They can have their close parking spots anyway. I just laugh at them. In my experience, this is where all the "action" is and damage occurs. In & out parking manouvres by NFI drivers, shopping trolleys and pedestrian damage. I'd rather get a good spot away from the action, and walk for 2 minutes. It gives me peace of mind and exercise! ;)

F**ckers who don't indicate at roundabouts...

You see them to your right, you stop and then they go left... God damn I hate it, it makes me wanna go around the round about, chase them down and cave their faces in with that tire iron I have between the drivers seat and the console..

I hate the drivers who drive more than 10km under the limit. When i drive home from work all the roads are 80km limits. the maximum speed you hit is about 65km. Then there are two pain in the butt drivers that everyone gets stuck behind.

First there is who i like to call Mrs 55. All the traffic gets caught behind her at about 7:10pm of a wednesday night in a single lane each way road. she does not drive any faster than 55km in the 80 zone. The traffic banks back about 1km.

Then on Thursday night on the same road and same time there is Mr 40. He drives no faster than 40km in the 80km zone and this causes lots of chaos.

The problem is with these 2 drivers is that when you approach a roundabout you spped up to overtake but they spped up faster than you and beat you through and then slow right down again. it pisses me off.

Can I add people who take off from traffic lights at walking pace and don't get anywhere near the speed limit for at least a further kilometre or so down the road (I'm not bagging trucks, buses, etc here as they can't take off at normal car pace)

Every passenger car out there on the road surely has enough power to enable the driver to take off at a reasonable speed from the lights...

I know what you mean.

It's even worse when you purposely get behind them at the lights because there's a truck or bus in the other lane, AND THEY END UP GOING SLOWER THAN THE TRUCK!! :ranting:
