Travelling up the A34 doing 65-70 ...I was the slower on the rd, one driver in transit type vehicle got right up my rear as i was overtaking a slower vehicle, I pulled over and this driver hammered up behind another inches away...why???...I'm not suprised there are so many crashes, so many cars doing 90 +
Coming home from dorset it was nose to tale for long periods, soo much traffic. 3.5 hours to get back to Oxford when normally it's 2.5 hours at worse.
Thank goodness i don't need my car for work.
as I get older the more I dislike driving,

What does that mean?
So by rd you mean a road?
This is a forum not a text.
If they find it such a pain why not? Assuming their livelyhood does not depend on it.
Not driving solves all these problems at a stroke.
Quite.
What ever that means....Just highlighting how our standards have dropped and I don't enjoy driving like I used to and not surprised of the amount of accidents there are!
You drive and complain about other traffic. You start threads and suggest others don't read them.
Easy solution for you. Don't drive and don't start threads.
Simpler thing for you to do, is abide by the posting tips. They are right there in red.
As with all of these threads, cool story bro.
However with someone too lazy to type mate and road, I bet one person's standards of driving re poor indeed.
.:p.
I picked my two grandchildren, who live in Sweden, up from the airport last friday....when I drove out of the car park my grandson said "grandad, you are on the wrong side of the road"
I'm on the left lane of a 2 lane approach into to a medium sized roundabout which turns into 1 lane on the roundabout, 2nd, exit- no lane markings
I go straight ahead by using the left hand lane, I overtake a car on the right lane who also wants to go straight ahead, he has to stop and let me through when exiting the roundabout where upon I get a beep and a gesture that claims I enjoy pleasuring myself, which made me feel guilty and ashamed.
If there's no lane markings and you want to go straight ahead, it's the left hand lane isn't it?
The thread title alone should be enough to know what it means.
howardl, it's just as bad when you drive on the rd in other countries..
It depends what the sign says and where the exits are?
I pull off a roundabout on way to work that has two lanes that goes into two lanes on the first exit and then the second is past 12 o'clock and goes into one lane. the amount of idiots that drive round the roundabout from the left lane is unbelievable!
Actually the UK has one of the better road safety records in the world, generally speaking.
Faster driving - assuming weather and road conditions are good - is better for all of us, as we get ot where we want to be quicker. Productivity increases, happiness increases. Ipso Facto.
I feel your pain, happens to me everyday cos I choose to drive at the speed limit.
was a girl in a mini this morning thinking she was in the italian job weaving from lane to lane at speed when everyone else was going no more than 20 due to the masses of traffic
Google maps the roundabout.
I'm tempted but it's too close to home.
