    My personal bugbear is people turning the opposite direction a little bit first before taking a left/right turn to get a better 'swing at it'.
    Think it's known as the Finnish flick made famous by a Finnish rally driver. Fair enough if you're doing top speed but a maneovre at 20/30 kmph does need a swing at it. So f***in annoying

    I always thought they were following the truck or bus that had to take the turns wider.....

    It brings a tear to my eye when coming around very tight corners at lights and the car driver looks like they're seeing their life flash in front of them, some even jump.....

    Oh yes, I commented on that on other thread....

    I mean if I have a green and other motorists are sitting at the line(red light) or well beyond it, I like a challenge the tighter the better;-).... Faces on some of them is priceless....

    That trucker in your video was either going to fast or completely unaware of the road but he was totally in the wrong and it's very poor driving.
