S2000 idiot driver

[Skunkmiester]

If you were the old man driving a red S2000 through Bracknell this afternoon on the way to Ascot may I ask if you were drunk or do you usually drive that badly?

Not only do you make yourself a target for road rage but you also have pistonheads.com advertised on your car that puts this site in a bad light.

Last minute lane swapping, using 2 lanes on a roundabout, using the wrong lane on another roundabout, under taking several cars and excesive speeding in built up areas is crap driving in anyones books. It seemed to me like you were racing, god knows who, as there were no cars around of a similar ilk.

If your going to drive like an idiot then take the pistonheads logo off your car and don't ruin things for this site.

Yeah it was me.

Using 2 lanes on a roundabout? How do you turn right on a 2 lane roundabout without crossing both lanes, thus using both lanes?

Did it have a wish list down the sides ????

The driver started in the left hand lane of a dual carrigeway, entered the roundabout to go straight on, cut through the right hand lane of the roundabout and exited. Instead of sticking to the outside lane of the roundabout as he should have done. All this whilst there was traffic using the roundabout, he basicly threaded himself through a needle. Pissing a few drivers off.

I managed to see it all cause it all happened on a short space of road. I wouldnt dream of trying to race him in my Skoda Superb now would I?

I guess it depends how busy the traffic was. If traffic is light enough and well separated, I'll try to time my arrival at small roundabouts so that I have it to myself and then use the free road space to straighten the roundabout. This saves me wear and tear on the car, and does nobody else any harm. I wouldn't do it if there was other traffic around though. I don't like being cut up, and I don't suppose other drivers do either.

Hmmm. Probably won't be long before he contributes to the S2000 accident stats and puts my insurance up even more.

I'm embarassed...but at least it's unusual for it to be an S2000 rather than a BMW/TT/insert-stereotype-here.

[deckster]

Be fair now. He probably just wanted to get through Bracknell before somebody nicked his wheels.

[skunkmiester]

Thats very true havoc, if it had been a BMW or typical rep car I wouldnt have been surprised.

The thing that got me typing was that this guy was obviously an enthusiast (S2000 was nicely done up and sounded great). And I'd expect an entusiast to be a good driver and save the hooning around for quite country lanes and track days.

[s2racer]

i dunno... these S2000 drivers are all bastads.

anyone with a list on their door should be executed by default.
