My god shouldn't people have to take an IQ test to get a drivers license? Driving a lot as I do, here's some of my top road rage inspiring driving peeves (and apologies for the language - not that I should need that here)...
* If you, or your car, are incapable of getting close to the speed limit on the freeway... then GET THE FUCK OFF IT. Clearly you're not in a hurry - take the back streets! Better still catch the fucking train - it's full of slow moving morons!
* How long does it take some people to move after the light has gone green. What are you waiting for - a written invitation? It's simple, you sit there and watch the light to go green, then as soon as it does - FUCKING GO!
* Rules of merging - it's simple car in front, let it go in front. Don't fucking zoom up to take the spot thinking MY-GOD-I-MIGHT-BE-BEHIND-SOMEONE-AND-BE-1-SECOND-LATER-TO-MY-DESTINATION! It's not worth dying for. Either in a road accident, or horrific bashing should your arrogance cause injury to my car...
* Volvos - you just keep living the cliche - sure you're safe so fuck the rest of us right?
* SUVs, 4WD's, whatever you want to call them... these are the new Volvo. "I'm big and safe up here so too bad if I cut off your view from oncoming traffic or unable to reverse out of a parking bay." The other day I actually had to open my door and look UNDER a 4WD to be able to turn into traffic. Worst offender - Hummer - FFS this is a military vehicle, it's not for taking the kids to school unless you live in Bahgdad!! I will accept that certain people do have off road vehicles because they actually go off road. Usually you can spot these people by roof racks, fishing rods, sensible wheels, and an actual understanding of how to drive said vehicle. You are excluded from this rant. But if the only 'off-road' you do is drive over the curb at the shopping centre intersection - go by yourself a Volvo!
* Volvo SUVs... Oh god it's the AntiChrist!
* Watch out for motorbikes people. Sure some of them are a little stupid with their riding, but we're not allowed to kill people just for being stupid! (That said, I still campaign for fixing stupidity by removing the warning labels from everything and just let the problem sort itself out...)
ah I could go on for hours...
Luckily another lovely set of hopefuls and member photosets to distract me
