i would say trucks aye they think they r so big and badass :lol: . There was merging and lanes and i was in the rightside of the lane just starting to merge and then this big $&#$% off truck came screaming up beside me, i was half along the truck. He started coming across pushing me into the other lane. I just hit the picks and then he looked in his rear vision mirror and laughed. Wanker

End of Rant :D

truck drivers r the worst

I'll bet that 90% of us think we are good drivers...


That probably makes us some of the worst drivers on the road.


We need to define "good driving".

is it:
-Courtesy?
-Knowing the law?
-Confidence?
-Experience?
-A cool head?

All these things in the right amount would make a good driver but I doubt anyone here could say honestly that they are an exemplary example for the masses.

The better you BELIEVE you are... the more potential for disaster you carry on your shoulders.


Personally, I'm an average road user. I try to let people in when they're pulling out from a park, swear at people that don't indicate and generally do a little bit of everything bad along with a little bit of everything good.

On a closed road though... I still suck... just at a higher speed :roll:

Grrr.. That's some bad karma right there..


Don't even get me started on this!!
Mine wasn't a ding in the panel i came out to but my entire front end and quarter panel!!!! :evil:

Still i'm going people who shouldn't have a licence.

Old people: too old hearing and seeing etc.

Foreigners: learn to speak and read english so you can understand road rules

Bus: bigger then you so get out of my way.

4x4: your in the city!! you don't need a 4x4 for starters but same as the bus bigger so move

List could go on so i think you get the general idea :lol: :lol:

Especially when you are part of a queue of traffic and are the last car - they still try and squeeze there way in.

STUPID BUSSES :!: :!: :!:


Not sure if its just chch, but they actually seem to think they can pull out and you have to wait for them. Have a few close calls when I showed em whos boss. Fear the mighty two door nana hatch.


Nah its not just chch, you should see the wgtn ones 8O the number of close misses I have seen by bus drivers at the lights outside the libary is unbelievable 8O

I'll hold him down while you slap him :mrgreen:


I find it hard to put poor driving ability on one group, I tend to think that a fair amount of people have their moements behind the wheel. I'm sure there has been times when we have all p!ssed off someone on the road they would lable us a "terrible driver".

But if I had to complain the most ... old people who have lost their reactions and hearing!! 8O


haha like this innocent little old lady drving in front of me. the light turns red so she stops and the waiting ped crosses the road. the ped has finished crossing, the light is still red but she drives through not knowing any better. was quite funny

PPL who dont indicate. EVER

PPL who take 600 BLOODY METERS TO GET IN THE BLOODY MEDIAN STRIP AND STILL ONLY MAKE IT HALFWAY IN!!!!!!!

PPL who keep going round the roundabout?!?!?! (and I dont mean 15yr old "pranksters")

PPL who drive slow because you are behind them in a fast looking car (I'm buying a truck with a cow catcher :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: )

PPL who take FOREVER to accelerate up the onramp FFS! and still only get to 70kmh

PPL who drive along with their indicators going. CANT YOU HEAR THE BLOODY NOISE!!!!???

PPL who tailgate. GRRRRRRR

PPL who do 30kmh in a 50 zone should be shot. Especially when you are stuck behind them for 30 mins!

PPL who dont seem to know why they are in a moving metal box

COPS lol :lol:

1. SLOW DRIVERS.... :x
That normal includes...Sunday Drivers,"Foreigners", old people, and women in their tanks/people movers.

What really annoys me is when people are in a powerful car, but they dont seem to realise it...eg, lady pulls out of sidestreet in a holden V8...accerates? no..
:evil:
you have to hit the brakes so as not to rear end!....

stupid people.
I should have the power to revoke license on the spot...no that would be cool...

I have a few favourites.

1. The open road driver that loves the brake pedal on corners but loves the gas pedal on the straights and especially passing bays.

2. The Merivale tractor driver, my god, just because your RangeRover/Hummer H2/Porsche Cayenne is three times the size of my MR2 doesnt mean you dont have to give way!

3. The 5am stick to 10km/h below the 80km/h limit on QE2 drive driver, my god its 5am, speed the f$%k up.

Most of the time this because they don't want to get to the motorway and see a shit load of traffic right beside them forcing them to brake suddenly or move into traffic that might be going slower e.g. rush hour.

No not all the time i'm glad they turn off automatically in the soarer cause even when the sterio isn't on you can't hear it clicking.

Down here don't have that problem of clogged motorway's ha ha ha but people do take way tooooo long to get up to 100kph and by the time they do the motor way is finished 8O ..
And the light on the dash for the indicator would be noticable even if you couldn't hear it aye?? On the Bike it's abit different cause the speedo isn't in my vision when looking forward where as a car is..

gotta say, those two piss me off to no end.

generally its silly people with no patiences, its also easy to blame on a certain group, asians especially coz its so easy to identify them, but if it was someone that are same race as yourself, you would just ignore his race, and just get annoyed at that particular person.

probably angery drivers from all walks of life is my tick, the ones that are king of the road, ie dont let others in lanes, pull angry faces when over taking.
