Are you the type of driver that HAVE to drive right up the arse of the car in front?

It seems that everywhere I drive, at the appropriate speed limit, I seem to get some twat about five feet behind me. When they've had enough and either turned off or overtaken me, another total knobhead falls in behind me to repeat the process!!!!!!!!!!

Remember.......

'One......Two.......Follow The Two Second Rule...'

Only if you're the type of driver that sticks to 27mph EVERYWHERE.

Er, 30 in a 30, 40 in a 40, 50 in a 50 etc.

I think a lot of drivers have a problem with it :ohmy:

While we're on the subject, wankers that drive down 60mph country roads at 40mph thinking you're being safe then continue at 40mph through the 30mph villages really f*** me off.

I did yesterday when some dumbarse was doing 20mph in a 40mph so I went close and he braked to make me back off...if people cant even get close to the speed limit they need their licenses REVOKED!

The limit is just that though - the limit. The A836 down the road from me is national speed limit, but you'd be mad to get anywhere near that on parts of it. You should drive according to the road and conditions, not by what a sign at the side of the road says you can legally do. I'm not saying that people should drive everywhere at 20mph but the attitude that the speed limit is a target is, frankly, dangerous.

Would you prefer that they drove at 25mph. through the villages?

Next time you get someone up are ass pull your handbrake, let them go into the back of you.

Quite a good idea, with only a minor flaw

With 1.4 million uninsured drivers on the road, loppy bollocks behind me is probably one of their number :ohmy:

Yes, assuming you're also the type of (unt who brakes to a standstill for every junction as well I will absolutely tailgate you with the faint hope that you may pull over and get out of my way. Let's be fair, you could hardly be travelling any slower

Yep i would, or do you think its better that they speed through a built up area where a kid could suddenly run out into the road and be run over and killed?

Does this mean that when you're driving, your basic motivation is to get past the car in front at more or less any cost?

Having had a couple of endorsements I don't drive above the speed limits.

If some twat wants to sit up my bum he is putting me at risk, so here is what I do.

1. Slow down to about 25 mph to annoy them. Are you tailgaters too stupid to realise that cars going well under the speed limit are doing this on purpose cause you're up their bum?

2. Wash the windscreen. This really annoys then as they think (subconsciously) you should be using all your attention to speed up for them. You sometimes score a double whammy as it often means its will splash their windscreen and make them have to wash and clean it.

3. Find any dirty puddles to ride through. By splashing their car, this really upsets them.

I would not recommend this.

I was once travelling at 75mph in the outer lane of a packed dual carriageway. White van man approached from behind at about 85mph. He got on my back bumper and flashed me. The inside lane was full and short of evaporating I had nowhere to go.

So I pulled on the handbrake. There was puff of smoke from the tyres behind, and the van was sideways on, as he braked to avoid me. Then the drivers window went down and he was brandishing a wheel brace at me. I made my excuses and left.

Thanks neil for bringingnup my driving pet hate. It happens almost everytime I drive from my parents in uckfield to Brighton. The road
From ucfield to lewes is perfect for at least 60, probably 70... But it's 40 all the way, then you get to lewes and they continue at 40 and you lose them completely. Don't they realise 30mph limits are there to stop you killing pedestrians? Wankers!

Tailgating is for middle-aged men with tiny cocks driving their top of the range BMW.

On motorways, half the drivers complain of tailgating, and the other half complain about lane hugging.

I think sometimes people think that people are nearer than they actually are,i had a young girl going mad at me on the M27 when i was 10 foot off the back of her boyfriends car while crawling along in heavy traffic at 10miles an hour stop start situation, women like this can serious damage your health the driver boyfriend wasn't in the slightish bit bothered..gobby women why do guy's stick with them!!

Drivers that piss me off are the one's that get in the wrong lanes at roundabout because they can't be arsed to que with very other f*cker and then try to push in on the out side...:rant::rant::rant:

Also the one's who slow down to 30 around fast bends then speed up to 70 on the next straight so no fucker can ever get past them..:rant::rant::rant:

Is this a your not getting past me thing or just a they really shouldn't be driving thing?

Also people who brake on straights mainley due to a car coming the other way at nights.:nono:
