I hate Driving
 
I have had the use of a car for the past week i don't drive one very often but two things today and just other general observations over the past week remind me why i hate driving a car.
As it's not mine i tend to drive carefully and keep to the speed limits especially in town (where most of my driving has been) , if i drive at 30 there is always someone up my chuff driving faster,no one smiles :rolleye:, when i signal to turn left into my road if there is a car behind they get too close too fast as if i'm not turning fast enough (this even more annoying if i'm on my bike ) .
no one gives way at roundabouts and creep out even if you are still on the roundabout THAT really annoys me .
Tonight i was driving to my mums i have to negotiate two one lane one way streets and every now and again i drive down to find a cyclist coming towards me they usually just ride up on the path but tonight matey and his girlfriend decided to play chicken with me and cycled down the middle of the road towards me i lifted off and eventually they forced me to stop then rode off down each side laughing :mad: its one of those situations where you think later if only i had done that in this case i shout some choice words at him but i wish i had just opened the door onto him :rolleye:
Then on the way back i'm driving down a road it's getting dark and i see a car emerge from a side road he doesn't stop and he obviously hasn't seen then he suddenly does and slams the brakes on as i drive past i see a kid in the back and the driver :rolleye: he's got sunglasses on FFS :rolleye:
OK off me soapbox now ;) i just had to share this as otherwise it would prey on my mind and stop me from sleeping tonight .
I'll finish with questions why doesn't stuff like this bother me as much if i'm on my bike than if i'm in a car ????.
If i had knocked them off their bikes who's in the wrong and why didn't i just get out and **** the cyclist :rolleye:;)
