This is a question Prejudice

"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Only prejudiced whilst driving
and I'm usually proved right when the cuntstack in the BMW or the Mercedes finally overtakes me at 150mph after having been tailgaiting me and flashing his high beams for the past 5 mins, even though I'm actually already over the speed limit.

It's a car not a license to be a prick.

What's the difference between a hedgehog and a BMW?
On a hedgehog the pricks are on the outside.

These days
I don't think it's confined to BMW drivers. It seems everyone either has broken indicators, or have simply forgotten what that little stick by the steering wheel is for.

Great fun at the busy roundabout on the way to work.

Ohhh yes
Wankers. It should be MANDATORY to use your indicators when you turn - and when you go around a roundabout.

What I especially hate is those drivers who approach a roundabout from two junctions to your right (as you're waiting to enter the roundabout) - whose journey only requires them to take one junction immediately to their left - thus not actually crossing your own intended path at all. And then when those drivers fail to indicate left!

If they indicated left then you'd know it was safe to proceed. However, because they fail to indicate, you have no way of knowing if they're just going to take their first exit - or if they're going to go further around the roundabout. So you're stuck waiting there like a lemon, when you COULD have gone quite happily.

Bastards. They simply don't give a shit about anyone else on the road. If I had my way, then if the police caught them failing to indicate then they'd be docked points off their licence.

Anyone who doesn't indicate
left to leave a roundabout I pull out on. On a motorbike. They're pricks. Absolute dicks. Most car drivers back away before bikers do though. Win. **has limbs left**

Obviously it's different rules there
In Australia, you are legally required to indicate, but still, that doesn't mean they do it, nor does it mean that the cops enforce it.

Indicating
I'm with you all the way on this one, it makes my blood boil. Often I've been put into dangerous situations because someone couldn't be bothered to indicate, especially at roundabouts. Makes it worse that I have no way of showing how desperately I want to cause them harm other than sounding my high pitched scooter horn. A tiny, tinny 'meep' really doesn't sum up my feelings of rage adequately.

I include
Audi drivers in this.

I drive an Audi
and I do like to "make good progress" when the opportunity presents itself but I'm not into tailgating, it is dangerous. I agree that BMW and Merc drivers are a pain, so sloooooooow.

The biggest pricks on the road, IMHO, are people that drive:
off-road vehicles (except farmers)
Mondeos and Vectras and THINK they are in a fast car
pissy little cars one yard from the car in front
vans
at a steady 45mph regardless of whether the limit is 30, 40 or 60, trying to save fuel I presume
their kids a few hundred yards to school

Hyundai excel
I don't know if you have them there, but damn near every time there is a long line of traffic, moving at walking pace or on and off the brakes for no apparent reason, when I finally get around them all ( on my motorbike),it's a fucking hyundai excel. Usually driven by a little girl, watching her mirror more than she watches the front, and braking violently every time someone gets closer than 100 metres. Utter cunts!

I used to drive an Audi 100
Good fun for such a huge barge, great on motorways, not healthy on the twisties.

I now drive a big Landrover. Why? because I can and its not fast enough to lose me my licence. I drive positively, like to make progress, and make sure that I don't tailgate or hold people up unneccesarily. IF of course you are referring to X5 drivers dropping little jocasta and her brother off on the school run... Well then I'd say you probably have a point

I don't drive a BMW
but when I'm stuck behind some cock in the right lane (overtaking in Australia)who thinks that anything faster than him is unsafe, I get extremely annoyed. Not because I believe that I have special rights, but because to deliberately prevent someone from going about their business is as good as deprivation of liberty.

Passing lane campers, argh.
I can't stand them. Especially when it's some idiot who has his cruise control set slightly faster than the person they're passing, with a long line of cars behind who need to get by. Fuuuuuuuck.
(, Fri 2 Apr 2010, 6:15, closed)

exactly, if your not passing something, and doing at least 10 mph more than them then FUCKING MOVE OVER

An old boyfriend reckoned that people wearing hats couldn't drive
especially blokes in flat caps as they hold everyone else up.

I still look for a hat, 30-odd years later, and yup, he's right.

Add to that pipe smokers.
And you have the full set.
