    Yes, to some degree bikers are their own worst enemy, but there is without doubt a section of car driver who deliberately obstruct the rapid progress of a biker, they probably don't actively seek out method's of termination, but their hatred of being overtaken does lead them into creating deliberate hazards for bike riders, moving over to close gaps being the predominant issue that springs to mind.

    I suffered this very issue several times coming up from Devon this summer on the M5, one memorable instance, a bloody 30ish woman driving an Audi was watching me in her mirrors and she moved into my lane, lane 3 without signals just before I got alongside, fortunately I knew this was going to be her reaction, so immediately took her on the inside, with an appropriate gesture of course.

    This is not uncommon behaviour, although to be fair there were many more car drivers who were paying attention and made provision for my progress.

    And Clarkson is the authority, after all, it takes one to know one.

    Who gives a **** about what Clarkson says, he's an idiot. He's a funny idiot, but still an idiot nonetheless. Does that mean everyone who drives an Audi R8 (which is my favourite ever car) is a cock? No. I actually have complete respect for all audi drivers and much prefer them to Beemers and Mercs.

    I have heard the term Berc drivers to band the two together as they equally seem to be complete cocks on the road. Would you believe I once saw a 5 series driver follow in behind an ambulance at near rush hour to take advantage of the vacuum of cars it left behind. Complete tool!!!

    we have numbers 1 to 12 behind the letters usually translated to the teams (ie 3 = Ferrari) Ive just bunched the 4 people up to make it more interesting with the highest number behind the letter getting the better midfield team

    I dont think Clarkson is an idiot, he's just irrelevant in the scheme of things, he has brain but does not put it to good use.

    Jacky, Berc is a very good collective term for these types of people although in my experience the BMW and Audi pilots are more to be avoided than the Mercedes drivers.

    Anyone driving a BMW or Audi whilst wearing a baseball cap especially back to front must be treated as having the plague.
