Maybe it's me but do people drive without inserting their brains in minus 3 conditions? I just took my dad over to Madjeski and witnessed mind-numbing stupidity.
The road is SO slippery yet I've just had some fucking remedial in an Astra VXR following me 2cm off my rear bumper fogs on 
Then when he got the chance undertook me on a road which isn't wide enough let alone grippy enough to speed on. He then got back in my lane and flashed his hazards then at the lights kept tapping his brake pedal, so my lights went before his and I wound down the window and pointed at my head and shook my head as he was waving at me to say hello
S77NE F I think the plate was, fucking spastic.

He clearly was star struck by the next stage in Astra and wanted to see how much faster you were But it makes sense to do that in conditions that permit such driving; Such as a track

Heavy football traffic as well as the road having tiny lanes.

I'm going along the M4 and doing 60mph, keeping a good distance and you have the usual Merc & Jag driver, oh and a RX7 flying past an inch off each others bumpers, just pisses me off people just don't realise how quickly it could all end it tears.

I almost had 3 accidents yesterday in the space of 2 miles on the way home from work....just due to idiots that seem to not be able to drive properly.
1. Guy in a works van whipped the van right out in front of me as if to do a 3 point turn. I had to jam on the brakes, skidded a bit & missed him by about a foot.
2. Idiot coming towards me flashing his lights & blasting his horn when there was a parked car on his side & expected me to move to let him past when clearly I had right of way.
3. Right round the corner some prick in a volvo pulled out from a junction infront of me.
Im sick of it, think i'll just let them hit me then claim off the bastards insurance if theres any more of it. Some folk just shouldnt be allowed on the roads!!!

they got no common sense, i see people all the tme wether its icy snowing or raining they see these conditions and think its playtime, wheel spinning at traffic lights speeding, what made me laugh one time was a dick in a vts overtook me on the way to a roundabout thinking he was clever he slowed right down on the roundabout and tried drifting round the roundabout with his handbrake and slid into the metal guard rails and hit the kerb, he drove off with his back wheel locked up and a big dent in the rear quarter lol

I once got overtook by some twat in a Tigra on a country road with the fog being so thick, you couldn't see more than a few feet in front of you. He was lucky there was nothing coming the other way, he wouldn't have seen them til they'd hit him.

Not the first time then, what an absolute prat. Time and place, and neither were right.

Sprinter drifting on one empty junction of an industrial estate was fun the other day
Other than that I've been taking it easy.
Not noticed many knobheads recently tho, quite surprising really

This type of thing pisses me off too.
When it rains I normally have my wipers on intermittent. However coming home from Uni it was so bad, they were on continuously. Needless to say if you had to break heavily, you'd probably keep going.
This Ford Galaxy was right up my arse and really off putting so I naturally slow (and put my brake light on with my clutch foot, so I didn't actually slow) and he backed off a bit.
Then he overtook where the road got wider near a roundabout and it was a taxi. Bloody badger.
