Ars3hole in a big white Mercedes decides to close the gap between him and a big fuck off truck while I was legitimately filtering through traffic on a 3 lane A road. He did it INTENTIONALLY, just before I reached him.  :grumble Had to slam on brakes hard luckily speed was only around 20mph. Almost lost it- not the bike, my temper. "FUCKING NUTCASE YOU FUCKING NUTCASE ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME ARE YOU FOR REAL YOU FUCKING ARSEHOLE ARESEHOLE" he wisely decided to role his window back up after my tirade, I've obviously mellowed in my old age, resisted the urge to put my boot into the driver door ffs some people!

Ive seen that quite a few times - they just hate it when they see you filtering along while they are stuck in the line, I usually say thank you and go around the other side of them in the gap they have just made there, if it takes me past the drivers side it gives me a chance to give them the slow head shake

One foccing day I am going to murder a cyclist, today I nearly hit a dickhead on one who decided to dive across two lanes without a cursory glance behind  or to the side and then went straight across a pelican when the lights where on red., best thing was he had a helmet cam so he could probably upload bad driving to youtube the foccing tosser.

Drivers of trucks with the body of the truck wider than the cab and no marker lights :grumble

Well that rules me out :angel

But I know what you mean, I meet some of these idiots on single carriageways and it's pretty scary when you realise that the load is hanging out somewhat. :eek


Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - unfazed - 09-12-15

Met one of these arseholes driving an enclosed rigid truck on the way home this evening coming towards me on our unlit "just wide enough in places for the Fazer and a truck" road, in the pissing rain and howling wind. Had to stop and when I looked behind at it, he had one near side rear light and no marker lights.  :grumble Just as well it was white in colour.

Just glad I was on one of the wider parts of the road when I met him.

Ahh, think I've just clicked onto what you mean.
Your not meaning a load over the width of the truck, your meaning that the truck just didn't have any marker lights??
So basically the driver hasn't checked his lights, or if he has, he's not bothered to fix them before he drives off.

Motorway warning signs that cry wolf. Central reservation signs saying 50 for 4 miles then an overhead sign saying Animals In Road, then 1/4 mile further on End. No sign of any animals and probably never were.

Same here coupled with it not displaying properly so it's fucking hard to read.


Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - fazersharp - 16-12-15

Im ok with the theme an all but it defiantly is smaller I have noticed that yesterday some pictures did fit but now they go off the edges and you need to scroll them

Agreed, even on my laptop the pictures were pretty useless.

I get this most of the time with using an iPad. Some people put pictures up that are that big it's a real pain to view them.
Oh and the Christmas theme is nice and festive but it is smaller and harder to read the white on blue  :'(  and it's not optimised very well for iPad as some of the text is overlapping.
