    Eh.. you should include women on that list. And may I suggest putting them at the top, in block capitals letters, with a few lines in between before you identify the next group. Is this really a P.I?

    Aside from that, big lol at the woman who feels she can criticise anybody elses driving.

    Hmmm...I talk on my "cell phone" all the time. I don't know about you, but most of us have enough brain power to do more than one thing at a time. Talking on your phone is the same as talking to a mate that is in the car with you...or even singing along with some music for that matter. Just becase we can pay attention to family, friends, or whoever we choose to talk to does not mean we can't pay attention to the road.

    Really? Four posts in five minutes? You aren't going to make friends by pissing and moaning on Boards about drivers. Oh by the way, if you think there are enough to post about...some of those people on the road are probably also on here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,900 ✭✭✭Quality


    Ooh I hate people who are constantly tapping their breaks on the motorway...

    And ****ers who wont move out of the overtaking lane.....to allow you to overtake!!!

    The drivers who wont dim their lights.

    And those who cant take a corner without swerving out in front of you on the road.....

    DEEP BREATHS...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,405 ✭✭✭shinny


    Cheaper Car Insurance - the hint is there :D

    The fool who ran into the back of me at the lights.....a man on his mobile

    The idiot who took off my front bumper while trying to edge out of a tight spot....a man, no other reason, being a man was enough.

    Every clip or accident I've had with my Car has been caused by a man. That's why our insurance is much cheaper :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭colm_c


    It's a fact of life, there are idiots on the road - male and female.

    There are however certain vehicle types I give a wide birth as the drivers of tend to be a little less than perfect :rolleyes:

    OP: you're one of the causes of congestion in this country. An hour commute, it takes me 15/20 minutes to get to work** and I'm going half way across the city.

    ** This is one of the reasons I ride a motorcycle :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭Slutmonkey57b


    Oooh a motorcyclist. Did they tell you who you'll be donating your liver to?

    HMM, i must admit that every accident where i havent been at fault, has been caused by a man.

    ive been hit by a male taxi driver, ive been hit by some bloke on his phone
    ive had my car destroyed by some bloke in a lorry.

    OH, i lie! some south african chick reversed into me after she drove too far out into a road, and decided she was too far out and reversed straight back into the front of the car i had had for 2 days. silly bint.

    oh, and moved to motors :)

    Ah yes, the strains of modern driving. And I reckon most of us here are hanging near Dublin, the hellhole for traffic, and with more traffic comes more bad driving (usually anyway). What we all need, is to go up to Donegal and enjoy 100km/h backroads and almost no traffic and give ourselves a chance to unwind. I was up there 2 weeks ago. Utter driving bliss. Might as well have been on the Nurburgring with speed limits. Coming back to Dublin was sooo depressing.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 35,945 Mod ✭✭✭✭dr.bollocko


    Coming back to Dublin will always be depressing, on account of the absolute and utter ****ness of cackhorrible Dublin.
    If I drove to Dublin in a solid gold Veyron with wings atop my own private speed limit free 6 lane dual carriageway, I would still get as close as Kildare and get out, remove the numerous fellatio artists and pornstars from the car, send the million quid in the boot to my mum, carefully pack up my numerous Armani suits for the funeral, tell me good mate Jimmy Page to flag a taxi and hang myself atop the nearest tree before entering the bowels of that god-forsaken paradigm of so far up its ass its tasting teethness.

    Well, I'm a man and I've had ZERO accidents or clips. But obviously, being a man I'm stupid and a danger to other road users.
    Tell ya what, how about you teach me how to parallel park then? :D

    This isn't aimed directly at you Shinny more at women in general, but perhaps if you had of let the man out of the tight spot he wouldn't have hit you. I find it is women who generally won't let anyone out of a side road or give up any road postion.

    :D:D:D true, and try and do it without holding up an entire street for a minute or 2 while continuously coming into the maneuver at an angle that a monkey would know makes it impossible to do it.

    oh well, if at first you fail try, try again............:rolleyes:

    I suppose she'd only have so long to actually try to park though, cause some man would come and crash into her, as men are wont to do!

    ..so basically what you are saying is that all of those men could have possibly only been in one accident, but you have been in multiple accidents. Coincidence?

    No problem. Parellel parking is actually very easy ;)
    I sat my test when I was 19 after driving for 6 weeks. Passed first time. No sweat. I also sat it in Wicklow and at the time, it had a pass rate of less than 40%.

    It was in a carpark. I wasn't there when it happened. I came out of the shop to find 4 people looking at my car and a very embarressed guy with his head in his hands. He'd tried to get into a spot that wasn't really a spot.

    3 accidents in 15 years of driving (I commute to Dublin every day also) & yes they were all men. How can an accident caused by someone else be my fault? Strange logic. I've never run into the back of anyone (because I don't tail gate) nor taken off the side of someone's car.
