> When are you too old to drive?


When you drive at 24 mph like every ****er does now!
When you drive at below 40mph in a 60 limit
When you drive through a 40 mph speed camera at 30mph
When you don't overtake twatting single cyclist who should be paying
insurance and road fund licence anyway
When you don't overtake twatting packs of cyclists who are ignorant bastards
whom deserve to be knocked off
When you slow down for horses who have the cheek to wave their arms
incessantly should you be driving normally
When you jam your brakes on without warning to let some pensioner out of a
side street nearly causing a pile-up
When the lights are on green so you brake whilst aproaching just waiting for
them to stop
When you block the whole ****ing road doing a right turn at traffic lights
blocking everyone who wants to go left or straight on
When you drive a honda, every ****ing idiot drives a honda
When you drive a hyundai getz, every ****ing pensioner drives a getz
When you drive a people carrier, every ****ing clueless bitch drives a
people carrier
When you stop for no apparent reason when emergency vehicles are travelling
towards you overtaking nothing?
When you have nothing more to do with your time than go shopping
When you have nothing more to do with your life than go to the garden centre
When you pull completely across a T junction to use your mobile phone
When you reverse your delivery truck down a cul-de-sac and block the whole
****ing road- ignorant bastards!
When you drive a bin-truck, lowest of the low, do the same to them if you
get chance block the whole road when theres plenty of parking space and make
the brain dead ****ers wait!
When you work for the council, who are so over staffed due to council tax
they have all day to do 3 miles (see above)

Theres hundreds more... feel free to add

Get these twats off the road? so we can move, simple, increase driving age
to 25, another test at 50 and thereafter ever 5 years, and dont get me
started about ****ing HGV drivers, professional drivers? MY ARSE! the worst
drivers on the road ! (bar the influx of pensioners that are still
breathing)

Huge (huge@huge.uk) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying
:

> When you drive through a 40 mph speed camera at 30mph


I was in somebody else's Espace this pm, with a nice large digital speedo
in the middle of the dash.

The ****wit in front of us slowed down from 29mph on spotting a camera in a
30 limit - to 22mph. And stayed there for about 500m after it - whereupon
she slowed down for the roundabout 500m later...

Yeah and those too, my list was events from just from last week..
What is it with everyone driving at 24 mph? always ****ing pensioners or
women or people driving hondas or SILVER CARS!

The ones that get me are those that hit the brakes when they see a trooper
writing somebody a ticket..... I mean... like the guy's gonna throw down his
ticket book, leap into his cruiser and come after somebody that he magically
knew was speeding just by eyeballing them...

My observation is that anybody who dawdles into a main road from a side
turning causing you to brake will turn off the main road again in less than
a mile.

Judging by the list of newsgroups this crap was spammed to and the fake
return address, it appears that the real point of this post is to piss
off as many people as possible. This is TROLL, nothing more.

As a cyclist, this is aggravating as it's hard enough to get drivers to
share the road without some moron like this guy encouraging them to
"knock us off".

As a motorcyclist, I know where you're coming from.
Everyone seems to think courtesy is for the other person.
Patience is a virtue.

PS-I seen some sanctimonious cyclist too. I'm sure not you!(or me)!

As a rule, old people are no worse than any other group of drivers when it
comes to lack of respect for cyclists, though I have to admit that the one
time I was hit by a car while biking it was an old lady. It doesn't help to
stay to one side and give them lots of room, because some will still crowd
you. Better to move out into the road more and they are more likely to be
more aware of your presence. It also leaves room for you to move over if
you have too.


Old drivers are bad. I worked for a brief period as a driver examiner at a
time when anyone 80 or over and those 70 or over who had had an accident
had to take an annual road test. We used to reserve Wednesday morning for
senior tests and I quickly learned to dread Wednesday mornings. Sixty years
of driving does not guarantee 60 years of improvement. It is more often 60
years worth of learning bad habits. It's a good think most of them don't
drive much because their accident per mile driven rate is far worse than
younger drivers. It is even worse than new drivers.

When you pay, then you'll have a say.

And if an owner (& vehicle excise duty payer) of a motorcar decides to ride
a cycle, your attitude would be...
