    Two to start, both when driving.
    First off, the (usually aged) driver on a country road, doing 45 mph in a 60 limit.
    Difficult to pass him, but here’s a village limit 30 mph, through which matey continues at 45mph.
    Second, country road 60 mph limit you are doing 60, so is matey 1/4 mile on front. No worries.
    Then matey catches the 45mph dodderer.
    Does he overtake when it’s safe to do so?
    Does he hell… he’s now seemingly happy at 45, meaning for you to overtake, you now need FOUR car lengths, not just one.

    Followed many of these along the road through our two villages. Limit is 60 along the open sections but 30 through the village streets. They continue doing 40/45 all the way then get caught on the speed camera.

    Always makes me laugh!

    All of the above plus people who do not indicate when turning left or on roundabouts when they turn off whilst you are waiting to enter and they shoot off the turn off before. Also people who have shite roundabout protocol in general, stopping and then looking instead of looking when approaching to see if they can continue without stopping to keep traffic flowing. That’s what roundabouts are for people 🙄

    An increasing lack of indicating, Union / England flags at roundabouts, and drivers in front gesticulating about the driver in front of them instead of concentrating on the own driving.

    Phones videoing gigs,we all like a momento photo of our nights out but why do some halfwits spend entire sections of gigs distracting other with their phones?

    People who think indicators mean “I am moving this direction right now” and not “I am signalling my intent to move that direction very soon when it is clear for me to do so.”

    Phone zombies walking while scrolling, moving erratically, making it hard to go by and sometimes just stopping, forcing people to either just stop (if somewhere narrow) or squeeze by.

    Another motoring one.
    Unlit dual carriageway, good visibility, little traffic.
    So you settle at 80mph 😳
    But what’s this? Someone catching you? Is it 5-oh?
    Slow to 70 then.
    They catch you… And sit behind you.
    And you can’t shake them off. Slow gently to 40, still there, accelerate briskly, still there. Seeing it’s not 5-oh, up to a quick , 90… still there.
    The only way to shake them off is turn off or stop on a layby.
    WHY????

    I agree, probably for a different reason!
