Right, a small rant from me about the fking dangerous driving idiots that cut across petrolstation forecourts because they cant be bothered to wait 30secs at a red light!

Just been parked up at our local tesco express while the wife went in - and in the space of only 5 mins 4 cars sped across the forecourt at what must have been nearly 30mph!!!

How long is it until somebody gets killed by one of these idiots! If I had my way all petrolstations that are located at cross roads should have speed bumps through the forecourt to stop these tts!

I have a three year old girl and I always carry her over the forcourt, the thought of her being in the way of one of these pricks doesnt even bear thinking about.

Rant over.

Presuming you live in the same city as me, which one was it? There's one on New Road bridge (by Chatham station) which is right on a junction hence terrible for people (usually minicabbers) using it as a shortcut

Its the Tesco Express by Strood firestation on Rochester road.

Its ridiculous here, people just cut the junction without any attempt to slow down.

In a similar thing, people cut through this delivery yard in dewsbury town centre to beat the traffic lights, there's been a few accidents and at least one death caused by someone racing through

They need to put those harsh, metal road humps down (the kind you often find in private car parks).

The shell garage In Ashford has the same problem. It has pretty aggressive speed bumps but I still see people cutting through it almost everytime I'm filling up.

I wonder how many people, ever, have died in petrol station related speeding incidents?.
