No speed limits here and no cameras but as its impossible to drive more than 6mph most of the time its not really an issue. When driving in Uk I stick religiously to the speed limits although push it a bit on the motorway. Think they could remove the speed limit there. Amount of traffic tends to bring the controls anyway.
Whoa steady on there is nothing wrong with Audi drivers Seriously this is a complete fallacy. It doesn't seem to matter what people drive, there are arseholes everywhere. I had a guy in a battered old Saxo today cutting in and out of lanes at 5.30am when there was barely anyone on the road. It got him ****ing nowhere as by the time we got to Cowgate traffic lights I was sat right behind him. He drove like a ****ing lunatic from the A1 all the way through Cowgate, undertaking, cutting people up. All in the name of ending up one car in front of me as I sauntered along at the speed limit. The people who boil my piss on the roads are the tossers who cut in and out of traffic, refuse to allow anyone to merge, and merge across two lanes causing mayhem. I assume these are all just lazy arses who can't be bothered to get out of bed or leave in good time, and decide to make sure everyone else on the road suffers for it. I must admit though I encounter it very rarely as I just avoid rush hour traffic. If you want to encounter dick heads, just try to get into and around Newcastle between 8am and 9am.
Sorry Pouchy, but its BMW, Audi and VW, in that order. There is no 'jealousy' on my behalf for not driving any of these cars, it just seems to be these three makes of car which attract the biggest idiots on the road.
Wish this guy had been on the A3 a few weeks ago... got my Speeding Awareness Course tomorrow - £95 and three hours of my life I'll never get back for doing 82 in a 70 but I did save a £5er and three points.
Either that or they are Indonesians. Came to the conclusion a while ago that all Indonesian roads have to be 4 lanes if traffic is to move. First lane is for foodstalls and cars stopped at them, 4th lane is for traffic turning right, 3rd lane is for traffic also turning right but which doesnt want to wait in the queue in the 4th lane, leaving 2nd lane for traffic wanting to go straight on. Unfortunately the 2nd lane is also occupied by taxis that are likely to stop if anybody on side of road blinks their eyes and buses that wont move until they have people clinging to the roof. When you do your driving test here as well as the driving and written test there are two other requirements 1) a pyschological teat designed to determine whether you are mental enough to drive here 2) compulsory donation of 0.5litres of blood, which I imagine is kept for you and used after each accident
I disagree. Guys in transit vans can match any ****ty driver, along with people in 4x4's. However I find people in bangers are just as bad because they don't give a **** about their car. People just moan about Audi's BMWs etc because they associate money with being a tosser. Money can make you a tosser. But then so can having a lack of it
Worse are the young lads that tart up their ****e second hand Vauxhall Astras and Corsas. Probably spend as much again as the car's worth on loud exhausts, and body kits. I just look at them and laugh - trying to be flash yet driving an absolute piece of **** car.
Like I said Pouchy, it isn't about jealousy. Not wanting to give way while driving down 30mph streets is a common fault among many BWM drivers. You can learn to give way while in a cheapo car, an expensive car or any car. And a lot of BMW are bangers as well.
Aye like the two turds that killed the 18 year old son of a guy I know up at Whitley Bay last year? Proper tossers.
Maybe not in your case, but it is in the perception of many. I hear so many people say BMW drivers but I couldn't honestly pinpoint them. Personally I wouldn't have a BMW. Generally I find most of them you get **** all for your money anyway. They are useless in less than great conditions. I don't really like rear wheel drive cars. I just find them no worse as drivers than the next man or woman. I think 4x4's and transits see their extra size and weight of vehicle as a weapon. Generally however I think it is the person behind the wheel. When in my old job I drove down to Nottingham with a lass who had a Toyota Corolla. She was a prick. By the time we got to scotch corner I had to ask her what she was playing at. Her answer? "I like to be at the front" There is no solution for such stupidity. I mean I like to be at the front when I go go-karting, but that is an actual possibility and the object of the day. Its a good job she was fit and I am shallow or I may have held it against her.
I am not married. I don't believe in it. Well unless it involves me getting a holiday to Hawaii. I could not have married her. She was a good buck but she had a bit of the fruitcake about her. I would hazard a guess she is either still single or more likely, unhappily divorced.
