The Standards of Driving

Recommended Posts

Posted

People on the A34 during the day. Drivers who go in the right hand lane going the same speed or only very marginally faster than the cars in the slower left lane. Just move over and let the 10 cars you're holding up go past you!

Also, it's not a standard of driving but there are some evil potholes out there. There's on on the A43 southbound that is an absolute bastard! Gets me nearly every time on the way back from LCFC matches (thanks to them all being moved the evening, cheers Sky). I roughly know where it is now so should be able to avoid it from now on but that could do some proper damage to some cars and is potentially dangerous lethal for bikes.

I call these people Traffic Regulators. They take it upon themselves to regulate the flow of traffic, usually to the severe detriment to the designed flow. The worst cases are on roundabouts, where a Traffic Regulator will see a queue of traffic to her left, and stop in the middle of the roundabout to let people out. I'm sure the Traffic Regulator thinks she is providing an altruistic service, but in reality she (and it is usually a she) is causing carnage behind her, with cars having to slam the breaks on, other cars not knowing whether they are coming or going and all sorts of dangerous confusion.

I... And it pains me to say this... Agree with moosey.

There is nothing more annoying than someone who thinks that the established rules regarding right of way don't apply to them and they encourage others to break them by making easily missed hand gestures or flashing their lights at you during the day, which anyone who remembers their highway code knows doesn't mean you now have right of way.

Exceptions being when the traffic is constant and slow moving and you're just a cvnt if you don't let people out.

I still stand by the slow drivers cause more accidents than fast drivers (Within reason).

Agree with this. Also I think a lot of old people are dangerous, the amount of times I'm driving along and a little old lady moves into your lane without indicating and they are oblivious to you.
