Does anyone else get pi55ed off by people driving with fog lights on when there's been no sign of fog for days. I do a 230 mile round trip for every home game and I get sick of drivers coming up behind me with headlights and fog lights blazing.

Lots of things piss me off with inconsiderate drivers.
Not indicating at roundabouts, getting in the wrong lane & my main bug bare is hogging the path when parking.
IT'S FOR PEOPLE YOU PIG IGNORANT ****S.
THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED A ****ING FOOTPATH.
Just one of many bugbears.
Biggest for me is the “middle lane” hog who thinks it’s okay to do 50mph in the middle lane with no-one for miles in the inside lane.

Easy solution. Let them overtake you then stick your lights on full
The use of fog lights, in the main and in the U.K. are ****ing stupid. The only time that they've been necessary for me is one tea-time in Scotland, on my way to see George Best play for Hibs, when I, literally, couldn't see beyond my car bonnet because of the 'pea soup' conditions.
Apart from that they are used by people after attention or showing off 'cos they've got some !
They must realise that it's difficult enough to see when it's foggy without deliberately dazzling the people behind them, because they themselves must have been dazzled by another idiot seeking attention at some point
If anybody in front of me has their foglights on I put my beam on to dazzle them . . . . one good turn deserves another, so to speak, and it's the same if someone sits at lights or junctions with their foot on the brake pedal (instead of using the handbrake) deliberately dazzling anybody/me behind them

I was driving down the A6 the other day when there was a Porsche Carrera in front of me and an old scrote with his missus in front of him, doing 25 mph(50 mph limit). When he eventually got past him he slowed down to 10mph, and every time the old kunt tried to get past he put his foot down and then slowed down to 10mph again. He did this for 5ml and then disappeared. I was pissing myself laughing at the old lad going blue.
Gordon's right though.
They should only ever be allowed at tea-time in Scotland.

I think that you are mistaking fog for DDL daytime driving lamps, which come on automatically when starting. They can be round in spot lamp positions, have a halo ring as well as fog capability, or flat and elongated, or even a pattern around the headlamp, and all of time L.E.D which are twice as bright as conventional bulbs.
I'm pretty sure I'm not mistaken Roger, they're definitely fog lights I'm talking about and they often look like they've been fitted as extras
Anybody who hogs the whole path should be shot through the back of the knees with a 9mm pistol.
Lets see the ****ers park on the path with no ****ing kneecaps. Arseholes.

And the ones who do it with work vans should be shot twice.
Indeed they should.
It's like a ****ing truck stop on my estate at times.
It’s a bastard of a job to fit fog lights to a car that isn’t meant to have them mind. A person who couldn’t afford a car with the options wouldn’t likely add them. It’s not like a few years back when it was just a cable - it’s an absolute bastard of a job.
It’s also very expensive - a lot of German second level cars (VW, Skoda), most Italian, and all Volvo have these side lights as Roger describes now.
There a tw4t not far from where I live parks his car on the pavement on the corner.
It's where the pavement has been altered to enable prams to have easy access.
No access at all when he/she is parked there.
Odd thing is that the Council van that goes round photographing bad parking near school passes this every time he's in the area.
PRESUMABLY because it's not on yellow lines, he drives by.
IF he photographed it and a ticket sent on a fortnightly basis, I assume that the ill mannered berk would stop doing it.
My own driving hang up is roundabouts.
The number of drivers who don't know the precedence rule is staggering.
And it's not difficult. Give way to traffic on your right, (unless there are road signs telling you something different).
I can only assume that lots don't know which hand is left and which is right.
Round the corner from me, there's a road (not a main road, but still quite busy ) where there's no way to use the pavement either side. These houses don't have parking possibility at the back, but most of the problem is caused by works vans , motor homes and a virtually permanently parked up caravan. And of course it'll be the councils fault that the pavement is in poor repair, and the grass areas are a quagmire.
Indeed & this is my main gripe.
Disabled people have no access on my estate due to inconsiderate ****ers.
STEVEN DIXON YOU ****ING BIG SKINNY ARSEHOLE
SHIFT YOU ****ING POXY VAN OFF THE PATH ON PARKSIDE ESTATE.

Near the Alexandra bridge when you are in the left lane then some get cuts inside ! because they were in the wrong lane in the first place. They should change that system so you can go right when you come off the new road anyhow half a mile circle to over the bridge. The wheatsheaf is better now mind.
I got pulled for having mine on in Middlesbrough once - I had them on in fog on the way to Boro then forgot to turn them off. The "law" is apparently visibility less than 100 metres use then it's legal - otherwise it's not. Most modern front fog lights are well directed to the road (or should be) thus causing no visibility issues to those around you. Most people think they're something to make the car look nicer - don't understand that it's a "fog" light - whilst they improve the look of cars in the dark (imo) they are there to serve a purpose

I love this! Hate inconsiderate people who drive like that but love it when they get it stuck up 'em!!
