Greengeek Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Maybe everyone should just take up walking? The world would be a safer place! Can't do that. There are gays and paedo's out there. Just stay at home... Or buy a monster truck to dwarf the school mums pointless 4x4's I'll never get pulled over and fined tbh, I always have a car in front and car behind for an escort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scutts Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 ...One thing on bus lanes - from everything i can find it is illegal to cross the solid white line that runs between the bus lane and the main part of the road - so you can only use a bus lane if you are staying in it the full length? Can anyone find why this isn't true? That can't be true, how would you get around parked cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyLover Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thats: "gay's and paedos". Get you're apostrophe's right. ............. actually, gays and peado's is correct! the apostrophe denotes missing letters (as in it's or that's) gays = more than one!

DumDom Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 The stretch of Chesterfield Road from Homebase to Meersbrook is the worst. Just this morning 9:40am, I came down this stretch and there was a black Merc in the right hand lane, so I under took him. He then speeds up and tries to intimidate me, well picked on the wrong girl there pal. Anyway as I was in the left lane to turn into the retail park, there's a knock on my window he's giving me a rollokin for " being in the wrong lane", I can't repeat all of what I said, but Moron in a Merc was part of it and when he realised I was in the correct lane for that time of day he wound his window up rather sharpish and moved along, tail between his legs. Happens all the time on that stretch, I wish the police would do a few spot checks or whatever on who's in the wrong lane, as I get fed up of the idiots in the right lane trying to intimidate me, or giving me two fingered salutes.

He really went out of his way to be an idiot, you have to applaud that! It depends on the circumstance but I will sometimes avoid driving in a bus lane out of its operating hours, as people think you are in the wrong and act like the guy in the Merc. So if I think I am going to get blocked in or similar it is sometimes is easier to just go with the flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellybum Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 When I'm aware of an impatient little nark trying to drive up my bad eye I often slow down in the hope of causing these unpleasant people to die early of some stress related illness, thereby making the world a better place for decent people to live. My advice would be to chill out and enjoy the ride it isn't supposed to be a race. Well said! Why are so many people in such a rush?! Chances are if your speed doesnt kill you, your stress levels will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
