Lane discipline on roundabouts. I started to think I was imagining it that half the drivers on the whitebirk roundabout (just off jct 6 on the m65) are all over the place. But in recent months the white lines are actually being rubbed out people's driving is that bad. My dream is to buy an old banger and just do circuits on it, sticking to my lane and driving straight into the sides of all the idiots who fail to stay in theirs.

It is a dangerous round about that is for sure, quite often when we are going home we come of at J6 to go to Brownhill direction and you get idiots staying in the outside lane without indicating and then cut across the two lanes for Brownhill direction to go to Rishton.

Roundabouts Grr. Idiots who cannot stay between the white lines nor understand right of way. So annoyed am I by this I no longer stop when they get it wrong, I enjoy watching the panic on their faces as I accelerate towards them. Also people who just do 40, in the 30 zone, 60 zone etc, always doing 40. Tossers and know I will overtake you and then do 20-30 whilst laughing (did this yesterday his reaction was priceless).

I'm always wary of the people who on the inside lane of a two lane roundabout cut across in a straight line ignoring the lanes and chopping anybody in the outside lane off. Blow your horn to let them know and they look at you like it's your fault.
tbqh the Driving Test simply isn't strict or demanding enough nor are the Police interested in correcting bad driving. I swear if I was a Traffic cop I could fill my daily quota of traffic violation tickets in a couple of hours.

Not sure what they have done at Whitebirk round about last night to justify 3 huge trucks with Hiabs on them and bollards all round the gaff last night with only one lane open all the way round!
looks just the same today, unless they cut the grass in the island!

How about Asian snobs Abbey? Millions of those. Nothing wrong with personal ambition but keeping up with the Khans (or perhaps more accurately around these parts the Issa's) seems to be a more driving ambition in their society than the ages old keeping up with the Jones's in ours. Jesus and Allah preached against greed, vanity and hypocrisy yet so many 'dedicated' followers just cherry pick the best bits of their religion to suit.
In truth that new Junior school should never have been given planning to be built there with two large schools already in situ on what is effectively a cul de sac. There were horrendous traffic problems before and it's obviously just even worse now as most predicted. Heaven help any Westholme child or local resident that needs the Emergency services at either end of the day cos they simply won't get them without a long wait! Parents hogging the entire road to drop kids off will give way for nobody! Anybody living on Meins Road should seriously be applying for a reduction in Council Tax because their property can only have devalued through the actions of BwD Council.

The free for all parking adventure down the Range and all over Audley. Double yellows, zigzags, actually on crossings.

Just bump it up on the kerb and put the hazards on, nobody gets a ticket. I park a little crooked outside HSBC and they are on me like rats at a bag of nuts.

Can't drive and don't intend to learn. Somehow I feel that the irritation level would be too high. Plus can't exactly say the thought of changing tyres, blown out engines, etc seems worth the hassle.

Also if you want to control anger management don't try online poker. If the bad beats won't get to you the idiocy of other players will. Can't they read a basic guide like "don't check sitouts stupid" before signing up at least. I truly do wonder how some of them even know how to turn a laptop/phone on.

Just what the xxxx is going on with Whitebirk round about, 3 nights running one lane only and highway maintenance trucks every where and it still looks the same.
Worse than that though last night, arrived at a crash scene just on the bridge near the paper mill, at least 7 cars involved debris all over the place, ambulance just arrived police presumably on the way when they have finished their Mc do's and idiots are coming up to the scene hardly slowing down and weaving through the debris, mean while it is lashing it down and hail stoning.
How do these numpties get a driving license ?
