i know im having another rant but this happened to me today and it does my head in!

how come when you are following someone going really really slow as soon as you find a suitable clear space to take over them they put their foot down!

So annoying arhhhhhh!

I tend to give them space so that when the straight comes i can accelerate before them and have already picked up loads of speed before pulling out, hence even if they do accelerate, unless they have a supercar they'll have fun stopping me overtaking lol

Then again you have a vtr ;)

I hate it when on the motorway I'm overtaking slower cars in the left/middle lane and they pull out on me when I'm coming up behind them at 70mph and slow me right down to 55mph. They don't even make effort to get their speed up quick, thinking it's only a saxo.

*rant over*

i just generally act like a nob tbh if a car going slow and i overtake... another car is coming on the other direction lets say for example, i will actually stay in the wrong lane until the other driver chickhens out and lets me in front... havent lost a battle yet mainly because im harder than the other driver:)

i really really hate bus drivers with a passion. ever since they got that sticker on the back of their bus that says "giveway section 156"iirc, they just indicate and pull out. its mint when im in a wagon at work, they dont stand a chance

Same, although I also use the power of a corner to keep up speed and shoot past once on the straight - lets face it... I really need to build up the speed before hand

just go round them even if most cars accelerated don't think i would notice.

The old road from the turnpike to south woodham?? Best road ever, esp late at night, nothing there 70-80mph all the way.

Hate it when the cunts are doing well under the limit, you overtake and they start flashing you and beeping as if you've done something illegal.
