i know loads of people rant about them but today annoyed me.
I had to go across town to a machinery hire place to get a floor cutter for our site
No longer then 5 secods into my journey i met my first old driver on a road round the corner from my site. The road in question isnt mega wide, and has parking on both sides, so you have to hug your side or you'll hit someone.
Surprise surprise the oldie came straight up the middle of the road. After sitting there for 2 minits she got out saying - 'dont you know this is a one way?'
What the fuck. Yes i swore at her but i did say sorry. never in my life have i know somone mistake a double laned road for a one way!
After that i carried on only to turn out of the end of the road to get stuck behind an old man and his wife. I must say they were in a MINT nova SRi  but he shouldnt have been driving.
Was swerving all over the place, head only just above the steering wheel doing jsut over 20 in a 40. KepT slowing to about 5 round corners 
Then he cut up 2 people on the roundabout by not even checking properly when pulling out, and going straight across lanes!
I say we get rid of their licences and emply special 'taxis' to get them from A - B

Someone shouted at me once for going up a one way. I just shouted back 'I only want to go one way' and carried on driving.

Saying that, i have had someone drive towards me up a one way street, found them on a blind corner. It wasnt a pleasant experience.

i was out today and i was waiting to come off a round about, and old dude in an impreza joined the roundabout at the turn off just before me and indicated right and took up the inside lane
i indicated left as i was taking the next turn off and he ended up trying to come off the same one as me
good job i slammed on the brakes or he woulda been right into the side of me

i almost got ran over by a coffin dodger in ormskirks one way system, he was going down it the wrong way and i hadn't checked the other way, i got the horn treatment so i politely told him he was going the wrong way down a one way
then another time some goon in an RX8 was sat in the wrong lane at some traffic lights in southport, going up to the front. he got a good blinding/hornage  because i came round the corner and wasn't far off hitting him

I love it when old people get pissed off when driving
You can just see them shouting and swaying their hands brilliant!

I had it yesterday i was late for work and probably driving a little too quick and some old man was coming the other way flashing and waving at me to slow down.
Then today outside work a little old man in a 106 that could hardly see over the steering wheel was driving 20 mile an hour literally up the centre of the street.
