Worst Drivers..

Options
The last survey said that Mums driving their children to school had over taken taxi drivers as being the worst drivers on the road.

That must have been a year ago - has it changed?

Who do you think are the worst drivers? (Apart from Goldspangles and Crabman).

    The ones who don't indicate, drive too close, cut you up, go through red lights, drive at inappropriate speed for the conditions regardless of car model, number of wheels or occupation!

    In my opinion, they're both as bad as each other, but let's face it.. every response on here is going to be along the lines of "everybody else but me".

    I know where you are coming from, but certain groups do seem to be more of a pain than others.

    Now the schools are back - my ten minute drive has turned into over 30 minute drive to work and being cut up by people carriers who pull up anywhere they choose, including bus stops, yellow lines, private driveways to drop off their darling (possibly over weight) children - some I know that live a ten minute walk away from the school.

    Having said that, why do taxi drivers have to drive at 23 miles per hour? Why do skip lorries insist they have the right of way when they don't?

    But who are worst?

    Some might say the elderly - but the other night coming home from work and waiting to pull out of a turning, an Aygo, containing three grey haired old ladies whizzed past.... I had a job to keep up! The driving was in no way bad, it was very good actually - but fast! I was quite proud of the driver to be honest!
