Roundabout Etiquette

Point proven about being unwilling to listen. Pretending not to hear... we've got a 4 year old that covers her ears and cries when she doesn't want to hear something!

I must admit I just had the same mentsl picture.
Fingers in the ears, and stamping of feet.

Funny, I find middle aged + to be far less willing to listen.
The arrogance of age "I'm older, I know everything and your all wrong".

I've got it on camera, it's the other guy's fault.

Can't comment on that. Not every poster (apart from you) can be middle aged, but we all seem to agree on the level of your driving skills though.
Run a poll, by age groups, who thinks strider is master of the road?
You'll get a fair picture then.

Since you're being pedantic, it should actually be you're (you are) not your (belongs to you)! :cool:

Looking at that video, it seems Strider is far too close to the Focus, drives aggressively, pushes his way into a non existent lane, then sits in the Focus' blind spot whilst going around the roundabout and sounds his horn at the most inappropriate time.
I think all this would have been avoided had he simply allowed more room between cars.
This is a daily occurence and is easily compensated for by even an inexperienced driver.
I fail to understand why this kind of (non) incident should cause little more than a few 'tuts'
You put yourself in harms way so as to exaggerate the other driver's mistake thereby trying to make yourself apper superior.
Also, being behind him gives you 100% vision, wheras the Focus has to look where he's going, read the road, read the signs and check his mirrors all in a few seconds.
A really good example of bad and aggressive driving.
I'm looking forward to a Christmas special :beer:

Cars often get in the wrong lane, deliberately or accidentally at roundabouts, or anywhere else for that matter ,suprise suprise.

First comment on youtube was slating strider as well, but he's told them they're wrong as well!
