Little issues that annoy the hell out of you

[megah0]

Having passed my driving test last month I have some new ones:

Kids on bikes, now I don't mean the lycra bound road warriors with dayglo helmets and lots of flashing lights. I mean the kids dressed head to toe in black, on a black bike, with no lights that wobble around the roads at night. The ones that are unpredictable. The ones who alternate from pavement to middle of the road from second to second. The ones in short who scare the living daylights out of me.

Next up: People who are puttering along at a safe, steady 30mph but then slow to 20mph to go through a speed camera in a 30 zone. There is a stretch of road on the way to work that has 3 cameras close together, one of which is up a fairly steep hill. Damn them for crawling up that hill and making me change down a gear.

Dirt: For getting on my car.

That is all.

For now.

people who don't know what a national speed limit is. especially when I have somewhere to be (i.e the train)

Yes!

Like those that on a straight, flat, dry road on going from a 30 to a national speed limit road mark the occasion by gently accelerating to 38mph then grasp the wheel in a steel grip terrified at the speed the hedges are flying past at.

Kids on those skate shoes, because putting a child, something already likely to fall over on wheels in a shopping center is of course a brilliant idea
