Other drivers on road....

Post by Jamie84 » Wed Oct 03, 2007 8:20 pm

well after a fair time driving around in the lotus i have noticed that other drivers either seem to love it or hate it . I noticed that many drivers usually in lesser cars will let you out at junctions etc no probs , mad keen just for a swatch at the car . However roughyl 7 times now i have let cars such as Bm's porches and audi's etc pull out , and had absolutly no acknowledgement for the good deed i had just done . One time in particular i let this fat cnut out in his cayanne turbo , as the 5 or 6 cars before didnt bother i thought why not .....no wave , no flash, no indicator...... I was absolutly fumming , drove up next to him and he just looked at me . Obviously you get the odd twat who wouldnt give you a nod in the desert but with the lotus almost everyone gives you the dingbat!

Anyone else find this extremely annoying ?



also bit off subject .....anyone else with chrome orange notice just how much midgee's and wasps n stuff love to nestle apon your freshly cleaned bodywork?

Are fan*ies.......

Roads should be reserved for SE people only :D

IMO :lol:

p.s - girlf hates being in the car with me if someone does that to me as i can get quite mouthy and aggressive :lol:

p.p.s - my pet hate is people who cross the fuc*ing road when the traffic lights are at green - and they walk slowly like you should stop!!!!

p.p.p.s - another hate of mine is people stopping or driving to close to me... (not driving fast enough u might say) but i mean in traffic etc etc...

Ok rant over.... :wink:

If i had a shed i would!!!

Was coming out the Omni centre one night in Edin - after a v good night at Jongluers... Was late and some drunk geek chav kid thought it was hillarious to dance infront of my BM at the traffic lights! All his pals were loving it. So i put the foot down and rolled him over the bonnet :lol:

From a standing start so wasnt too fast but tought the wee sh!t a lesson. And it made me laugh :lol:

I normally find that if you look at the stereo as you head towards them they generally think your not watching and do a wee run out your way

My pet het is cyclists undertaking you at lights etc, when you've just overtaken them 2 minutes previously. Then you have to do it all again when traffic gets moving again :x

My pet hate is cyclists ignoring:

- red lights
- zebra crossings
- the fact that pavements are for people

...then being the first to yell at you if you come within a couple of yards of 'em as you pass them in a car, or step off a pavement near them.

You wanna be a road user, Mr Cyclist? Then follow the same fecking rules everyone else has to.

Right, that's better.
