I am sick to the back teeth of the fuckers in their shiny shiny shark-mobiles, driving at speeds hitherto unknown to the M11, weaving in and out of the inside lane, and generally trying to drive up my exhaust.
and then there are the nissans which pootle along at negative speeds then decide to overtake a lorry in the morning rush hour.
this commuting lark is doing me no good at all, I want to PUNCH things by the time I get to work.
Tell me about your rash generalisations regarding cars and their drivers.

All Audi drivers without exception need shooting in the face, especially the ones who fail to make it to the zoo.

and cycle. I would hazard a guess that 9 out of 10 people either don't know what an arm signal is or actively ignore it anyway.
Fucking scary when a 7 seat taxi sails past about an inch from you when you're halfway across the road ready to turn right.

I live in central Manchester, and they do seem to behave as if no road rules apply to them. No hand signals, running red lights, using the pavement, cutting up both pedestrians and motorists...they are rather annoying.

utter cocks the lot of them. Pedestrians are similar though too. I would rank cycling from Covent Garden to Soho on a Saturday morning more dangerous than playing snap with an Alligator.

I had Burmese and Siamese cats when I was younger, I thought I could tell the difference. I think it was the colour, I had a lilac-point Siamese cat with purple ears. Although now you mention it, it's quite obvious that his face isn't as long as a Siamese, so *belm*.

but not classic car drivers. I'm not talking about the rich people who just like classic cars and are driving a nice old Jaguar. I'm talking about 'Classic Mini' owners, the sort who have stickers about the classic car conventions they go to, or the worst 'don't you wish you were driving this car?' No, no I really don't

bmw drivers are the WORST. every time you have some cock up your arse on the motorway (fnar) it is inevitably a beamer.
also cyclists. on just one trip to work this morning, i saw two of them cycling along the pavement, scattering pedestrians in their wake, several of them happily skipping red lights - which of course don't apply to cyclists, oh no - and one of them twat right into some poor innocent STATIONARY driver's wingmirror and just ride off.
and motorbikes. specifically the tools that bring central london to a standstill every wednesday morning protesting about having to pay £3 congestion charge or something. boo hoo. the rest of us pedestrians/sometime car drivers don't want you on the bloody streets at all, annoying us by sliding more efficiently through the traffic, revving the throttle unnecessarily and disturbing everyone for miles around...
sorry. i am in a bad mood this morning it would seem!

I agree with you about BMW drivers. It seems a few of them sold their beemers and bought Audis though.

bmws have not been as bad as the cocking audis yet (have only been doing this commute for 4.5 weeks, so there's plenty of time). mercs have been pretty bloody awful, and volvos too - plus I get the odd renault driver who thinks he's in a formula 1 can when he's actually still driving an espace.
motorbikes are annoying too, I'll grant you that.
I'm glad to see nobody has mentioned the make of car I drive yet!

they follow you so close you can't even see their number plates, just their grilles in the rear view mirror, and then, don't even bother to over take! they just sit there, honking and inching closer. Cunts, the lot of them.

If I had a car that could only do 70mph max, I'd be thrashing the arse off it all the time. So it wouldn't last long and it would go through lots of fuel. Whereas I currently drive a car that can do a lot more than that, so I can drive it more gently. I don't speed much, and get 50+mpg.

By having cars that can exceed 70mph but having some kind of rule that made it illegal to do so. This could be enforced with a system of fines or maybe bans for the more serious/repeat offenders.
