The Finer Points Of Driving

* In the rain, when it's dark - drive more quickly than usual.
* If you see an accident on the motorway - slow down so everyone behind you is late for work.
* I have placed the "Please Cut Me Up" sign on my car - feel free!
* I love the smell of 2 stroke oil - please come to the front of the que and wait right by my headlight mr scooter driver.

Ah - thats better.

Plus: Pull up to the T junction, see me coming, pull out anyway.
On the bends slow right down. When you get to the straight bit, speed right up so I can't overtake you.
Oh, and it's OK to park there so you dont have to walk or pay for your parking. I dont mind waiting for you in this queue of traffic.

Mmmmmmmm two-stroke.... smells luvverly!
But yes, I agree with the rest of your points: some people are just so selfish. Nearly had the front of my car removed today by some silly cow in a beemer who was so totally unaware that she'd just passed me in the lane to my right and clearly thought it would be a good idea to just drift in front of me. No signal, no clue apart from the sudden proximity of her rear to my nose, if you catch my drift :)

heheh, I'm so glad it's not just me then.

I've noticed it's pull out of a T-junction season in my area at the moment.

There's also a great bit on my way to work where a granny, rather than press the button , likes to cross the dual carriageway at a pace which no doubt left a great safety margin in 1904 when the speed limit was 12MPH, but can make things interesting with 2 lanes of traffic at 40.
