Things that wind you up
Discussion
Here's two to start with.
1. Cyclists who use North Road and obstruct traffic in the morning rush hour when there's a cycle path the full length of it.
2. Motorists who hog the outside lane of North Road for almost it's entire length, travelling at 26mph before pulling into the inside lane when they reach the Civic Centre.

C'mon! you drive a left hooker. Start smoking cigars and stub it out on the lycra clad arse as you pass!
BTW, T350 has gone (oh how I miss the noise!). Now in a silver SLK. So if you see a hairdresser lookalike waving furiously... don't think you've pulled... it's just me!... and give it some gas!

Bad enough on a mountain bike but if you're on a racing bike with ultrathin tyres at 120psi it's simply a no no. Also usually loads of kerbs to negotiate which means you keep needing to slow right down and even then risk damaging expensive wheels/tyres.

We'll be in the silver Type R coming the other way most mornings, Z28 on others. I think I've seen the SLK. Nice car.

Pedestrians in School Hill Aberdeen. The Pedestrian lights go to red, so obviously you stop to let them cross the road.
Their "Green" light starts to flash, so obviously those on the crossing, continue to cross, then the "RED" light comes, and still they bloody well start to cross.
Finally when my light is "Green" I often nudge forward to be greated by icy stares from those bloody pedestrians who are STILL steping onto the crossing.
These not only irritates drivers, it slows up traffic flow, and do the police prosectute the pedistrians, so the hell, but dare you tap one with your car.....
