    I hate people who drive really fast up to the traffic lights then brake at the last minute.
    The lights red retard! Your not going anywhere!!
    I also hate the guy I met on the road the other day, like the above the lights gone red so I'm taking me time getting to it so it'll go green and I can drive off even faster, tis **** behind me starts blowing the horn.
    Head away from the lights into heavy traffic, I hate all this stopping and starting bull**** so I pick a steady speed and keep at that same **** behind me starts giving me the finger. He eventually passes me on the inside like the retard that he is only to nearly slam into the car infront of him and where did it get him??
    One ****ing car ahead, we just swapped perspectives now I was looking at his back bumper.
    What a ****ing sack of ****.
    That felt good

    Next time that happens wait until you're in traffic again. Calmly get out of your car, walk over to the offending driver, get him to roll down the window & then punch him in the face.
    You will feel soooo much better but you will run the risk of being beaten up & most definately arrested.

    We all hate road hogs, form the guys revving up at the lights to the slow poke who slows down half a mile from the lights (just trying to impose your will on the guy behind you :P, one's as bad as the other IMO

    I know exactly what you are talking about... I hate people like that, my Dad always tells me, the art of driving in the city is to use brakes as little as possible, you should balance your driving perfectly, I always roll up the traffic lights too in such way that when I'm there it turns green, so I don't stop and yes there is usually some **** catching up to me.

    Not only is it stupid, they waste lots of gasoline too.

    And I HATE HATE HATE tailgaters, nothing takes a jelly out of my donut like a tailgater, especially cause I drive a Polo and even if you are driving right on the speed limit every crappy driver automatically assumes since you are driving Polo you are driving slow and starts tailgating me.

    I hate people who don't use indicators or even worse use them incorrectly.

    I hate people that park like assholes and don't even bother with aligning their car properly.

    I hate a lot!

    Don't suppose the guy was driving a white Mondeo with tinted windows was he. There was a guy behind me and others in the city centre this morning doing the exact same thing. He's sit on people asses, horse up to traffic lights, all trying to get the car infront to go faster. Go him nowhere.

    Oh dont get me started on people who park willy nilly, on the feckin' lines!!
    I dont care if the place is deserted, I take pride in my parking and people who dont....eh... well if they were boats it would be bad seamanship:p

    ive been known to put my hazzard lights on sit back for a moment of reflection and just as the light turn amber drive off. I know there is other people behind that have done nothing wrong but its one of my little plesures in life

    I hate people who go really fast at red lights and then brake at the last minute!!!!! there is no point in tailgating me if the light is red... its not going to make it change any faster....

    or maybe it does? am i missing out on something?

    :confused:

    No it wasnt, but if you think about it thats like the motoring equivelant of queing up behind someone at the shop and going "ge the **** outta my way!!"

    I was guilty of this yesterday. My indicators on the bike stopped working, had to use my arms and legs as indicators, In some cases I couldn't as I was maneuvering and to take my arms or legs off the bike would have been dangerous.

    got the indicators fixed last night, with huge relief. my legs were killing me.

    I also hate people who cant park. I mean just because your a tool who bought an oversized BMW jeep you cant control to compensate for something doesn't give you the right to take up two or sometimes 3 spots.

    you bought it, learn to ****ing drive it properly.

    Also Any Merc / BMW(or any other car for that matter) drivers who cut me off on the bike(no excuse its loud enough) should be aware that I have armored gloves and boots on and I will take your wing mirror clean off your car and keep It as a souvenir.. Because clearly you don't ****ing need it!
