I'm a learner driver and it's honestly so frustrating seeing people do things I'd fail a test for week in week out. The other day I saw a woman drive up the wrong way on a one way street near my house, and she REVERSED (no blind spot checks, just looking behind as she goes back into a basic two way road) when she realised. The no entry signs are RIGHT THERE, TWO IN FACT! I feel like people need to be retested once every couple points. Learners have to be so strict and safe, yet it's like no one was ever a learner anymore.
* Taxi driver are allowed to do drive without one front head, half rear light and indicate whenever they feel fit * German cars are an optional indicator extra * Toyota Prius drivers are a law into themselves * highway code applies to normal careful drivers that powers at be decide upon prosecution prosecution process with deligant
Thats one of my pet peevs mate i see it all the time, they think we are fking mind readers. I was crossing the road the other day and this dumb driver looked at me with his hands in the air like its me fault 😴 use your fking indicators! Another thing that pisses me off is when i see people reversing onto a main road because they are too fking lazy to drive around. Taxis are the worst
@@DownAvenueWay You are right, during my 9 year period of BMW ownership I all but stopped using the indicators, it's bizarre, I am back driving a Ford now and drive as though the highway code is my bed time reading ......
Well just yesterday I did see a Middle Eastern/Asian looking man driving on the wrong side of the road in my town. He even stopped at traffic lights still on the wrong side, blocking the carriageway for cars that were now able to go that way because the lights were green for them. He then gets a green light on "his" side and turns head on into traffic like Borat and his ice cream van. One of the weirdest things I've seen in years. Just seemed to be in a total world of his own, people were hooting and shouting at him and he didn't seem to register or react to this being a problem. How can you see other cars on the road and think "Yep, I won't follow them and will instead just drive on what's clearly the wrong side - why are all these cars coming straight towards me anyway?!" No urgency or alarm from him and he was puttering along at 20mph.
Absolutely it’s getting worse, middle lane hogging, lane discipline, inability to indicate, people not stopping at zebra crossings, last second lane changes nearly crashing into vehicles, idiots everywhere!
All these immigrants who have sat a test abroad that consists of driving from one end of the road to the other and having no knowledge of our signage, customs etc are causing chaos. Also a mega laxidasical attitude policing the roads by the police hasn't helped.
I used to work on a technology park where there were contractors and staff from other countries. The site management had to prepare an information pack with diagrams about how to use roundabouts etc.
I used to be a learner myself, and i've had idiots pull out on me, cut me up, and they've been tailgating me, which really annoyed me and it still does.
I am seeing a recent plague of people who just veer off roundabouts at the first exit without indicating left. It buggers up the traffic flow for anyone correctly giving way to the right, you and everyone behind have to wait because that idiot isn't making their intentions clear. That could end up a Serious on a driving test yet old farts do it every day. Also a few years ago, I used to live in flats on a main road and there was a Keep Clear box outside the car park entrance. You could turn right off the main road and straight in, but one day some pillock had stopped in the Keep Clear (there were traffic lights further down) and the road was too busy behind me for me to wait. Had to do a go-around of the one way system and a nearby rat run to approach from the top instead, adding well over five extra minutes to my journey when I should have been seconds from home.
I've been driving for around 18 years, including my driving as a learner driver, and I'm now 37, and I swear that the roads never used to be as bad as this back when I began driving. Just this week I've been tailgated, which annoys the hell out of me, I've also been cut up on roundabouts and junctions, I've also been dangerously overtaken on a busy road by a 🔔🔚 in a audi, who decided to show off and overtake myself and the 2 other cars behind me, he came speeding up doing over 70 in a 30 and overtook the 3 of us, and then he narrowly missed hitting the front of my car to come back into the lane he should be in because there were several oncoming cars and he needed to pull back in quickly. I tend to find it's certain types of people and certain types of cars that are slways involved. I've also been dangerously overtaken on a very narrow back road by a young lad that looked about 10. If I hadn't been aware of what he was going to do he could have ran me off of the road. Luckily I pulled over onto a grass verge and also I'm very thankful that it was just me, my partner and our puppy and that our kids weren't in the car. We caught up to him at a level crossing and my partner got out of the car and banged on his window and asked him what the f he was playing at.... Apparently he was late for college.... I personally think it had more to do with the young girl he had with him that he was trying to impress. I am always wondering how most of the people I encounter on the road even have a licence. I think there needs to be tougher restrictions on people who speed or drive dangerously. Not to mention a massive crackdown on those that are driving but don't even have a licence, or pay road tax, or insurance or have a valid MOT. It makes me mad that because of idiots like that our car insurance is so expensive.
Back in the late 80`s early 90`s I was covering the ambulance work when the paramedics were on strike. I was in Romford on a shout trying to get round a learner driver safely. The bugger didn`t even have his seat belt on and he was being taught by a "driving instructor". I still drive professionally now and it`s even worse. My crystal ball has had more servicings than my car
Yes Dave no indicator when turning left or right, jumping red lights & so on. Obviously driving on an international license from a shit hole where there’s no law & regulation.
These guest 'drivers' didn't pass a British Driving test ! Half of them don't have a driving licence or insurance. Most of them drive like they were still in the 'cush' !! LOL
It’s when someone moves out to the overtaking lane, and then decide they actually just want level with the car to the left and stay there. All whilst causing a traffic jam behind them and not having a care in the world. Add to that the people with the lights that are so bright, you’d be safer staring at the sun
Yep, see this all the time. I am driving a 1.2 Skoda. You are driving a BMW M3. Why are you sitting on my shoulder and speed matching me? Boot it and overtake properly.
It’s not Wacky Races at 02:42. People always need to get home for fish and chips, etc. To be a driver, I must be a mind reader indeed. Especially The AA at 05:12.

So many people don’t know how to indicate. I need a crystal ball to see into the future
I moan at people nope don't bother touching the stalk to indicate its too much effort..focking lazy people 😢

Yeah, it's coz of the farmers blocking the roads.
Hazard perception and predicting what other drivers will do is the important key of staying safe on the UK roads.
Absolutely love u Dave love your rants mate quality and how u stick up for the farmers is just the best total respect mate

Must warn you my 85 year old dad is the worst driver in Leicester. Scares the shit out of me. How he's not crashed yet is beyond me.
🤣🤣🤣
I was just thinking about this yesterday. Indicators seem to be optional these days.
Absolutely 💯% getting worse, lots of people driving on drugs now, think they're at Silverstone while driving down side roads.
It's not just driving its the whole a country as a whole dropping standards

The correlation between areas with higher numbers of immigrants and road traffic accidents and non-insured drivers is interesting....
Correct ....😮
I agree entirely & I'm in brum.
It’s when someone moves out to the overtaking lane, and then decide they actually just want level with the car to the left and stay there. All whilst causing a traffic jam behind them and not having a care in the world.

Did Dave just say he was doing 110???
One of these days he Just going to have a heart attack in needs to calm down Jesus chill.
Not venting it and keeping it inside will do him more harm
