I literally just had mine - 4x4 tailgating me with his headlights on

they're so high up they just shine straight in the rear window and onto everything reflective. Like anyone needs a 5 litre Cherokee in town anyway

Ultimate solution to tailgating by the way: pull your handbrake

you slow down but your brake lights don't come on. Makes the other driver crap themselves

How about the 4thgenphil in the 4x4 who parks up like 6 inches away from you in the car park?

It's a toss up between people carriers on the school run and when you let someone out or through and they don't even look at you, let alone raise even one finger.

Hate that too

I'm surprised no-one's said speedbumps or chicanes or road gritters yet

But my pet hate is when I overtake the doddery car in front bimbling along and there's an on coming car in the far distance. I easily have enough time to get around old bimble and pull back in safely, not even at an excessive speed. Then 5 seconds plus later, when the oncoming car finally passes you, they're tooting and flashing and cursing at you because they think you're endangering their lifes with reckless driving!

I just think if you thought that was reckless, you're obviously an incompetant driver and YOU shouldn't be on the road! Really gets my wick!

Middle laner's on motorways, why not pull into the driving lane and ease all the congestion.
