A few things have annoyed me today....
1) People driving in torrential rain with no lights on.
2) People not moving into lane one when it is empty resulting in a queue of cars in lane two.
3) People trying to take the racing line through roundabouts when there are other cars on the roundabout too.
4) People who sit at 40 the whole time....doesnt matter if the speed limit on the road is 30, 40 or nationals.
I'm getting grumpy in my old age obviously.

The state of the roads are annoying me.
This weather has destroyed them, potholes everywhere!

- Really well
My other half is down south and I swear this is there national speed limit. If any is behind me in town there up my hole becuase I'm at 30 then no where to be seen when we enter a 60. They you come across a cluster of cars all sitting at 40 and no one has the sense to overtake.
Well, could I offer: incredibly confused (I’m being charitable!!) I’d imagine first-day on R plates driver. I could be more succinct

I've noticed this a lot lately, especially at night in street lit areas. Really irritating, especially with most of the offenders driving around in grey or black vehicles.
There was a wee old lady driving a black ignis with no lights doing about 30 mph on the m2 on saturday during that heavy rain. I nearly ran into the back of her.

I'm thinking people rely on the auto lights to do everything for them

Turing left onto malone from strandmillis in the inside lane and outside laners cutting right across, only so many times I’m going to brake and sound the horn before I start spinning them then charging to recover them from the scene.

The smell of kerosene in your car when you spill a little in the boot, literally a capful.

Completely agree. If you're not driving as fast as a lorry on a dual carriageway or motorway then you need to re evaluate your life
If you get over taken on a B road then that's either because I'm in a rush or you're really really slow
Say this to myself at least 2/3 times a week

People who dont use their mirrors when pulling out to overtake and I'm already overtaking with my indicator on from a good distance behind.
The cones on the nutts corner roundabout being so reflective that I almost didnt see a dark coloured corsa behind them early this morning.
The next person I overtook on loanends road hit the brakes as I was passing him.
FFS lads, this was all within 3 or 4 miles of the house this morning.

Something similar happened me the other morning.
Slow car in front, van behind it, another car and then me.
Long stretch of empty straight road, van went and completed the overtake. I waited a couple of seconds to see if the plum in front would go.....nope.
So indicator on and away I go still wary of the plum who decides when I am about a foot from their quarter panel to whip the indicator on, floor it, and then look behind them.
I braked, they braked and pulled on the steering wheel like it was a ships rudder and then away I went again.

Even signal mirror maneuver would be acceptable as that way you're probably giving a longer indication by the time you move
