don't care what number plate they have - it's the ASSWIPE who fall asleep in the fast lane that piss me OFF :mad:

************* KEEP LEFT - PASS RIGHT ****************

A growing trend these days is for people to drive at 100km/h in the 120km/hr RIGHT hand lane!! like they in a coma man!! and when u flash yr lights asking them to move over they either BLOCK u purposely, or get pissed off with u and give u the middle finger!

Most people don't understand it's "NOT" their right to block the Fast / right hand lane!!

The current traffic rules make it clear that the car behind has the right to flash their lights asking u to move out the way!!

then again most of the above mentioned people DON'T HAVE LICENCES!!:eek:

I hate fast lane hoggers, and even worst when they refuse to move... (mostly Jap car drivers):p
I drive with my brights on if they doing less than 120 in the fast lane.

As for the "foreigners"
They suck, they drive so slow, they indicate 50m before they suppose to turn, they go blank at 4way/3way and just about any Stop street!!
The reason I started this thread was when a foreigner decides to drive in the middle of two lanes, she refused to move... I hooted, flashed lights everything...
Had to drive behind her, then another car comes by, he almost hit another car in the on coming lane, he didnt realise shes a stubborn foreigner who drives in the middle of the road!

Botswana plates - half of the Okavango's mud still stuck to the chassis, causing extra drag for the engine firing on maybe 50% of cylinders. Loaded with shopping, cheese curls, wide-eyed passengers and sacrificial goats.

they indicate 50m before they suppose to turn

I indicate from as far back as possible (without being misleading), so the person driving 1 meter behind me can back off a bit...

Some people don't indicate until they've started turning :mad: You're sitting at a stop street waiting for a car going at 2km/h to drive past (because it would be rude to cut in front of them... or they're about to hit the accelerator like the average GP driver) when they suddenly decide to turn off the road, indicating halfway through the turn.

But 50m? I just assume the guys radios too loud and he forgot his indicators are on...

I don't know what's worse, someone doing this, or indicating/braking/turning at the same time. Even with a following distance, it has me ready to brake hard, and looking for escape routes.

GP drivers can't drive on their own highways...joh! The amount of times I see people just blindingly change lanes without checking who's next to them is AMAZING...guess you guys can't concentrate in that lovely traffic of yours

people who drive alphas are poor drivers...:D

I had an alpha... I gave up on it... or to be more honest, it gave up on me. Still would buy another one :D

If you think the problems are bad up there from all the "foreigners" you should check out the coast Dec/Jan when the rockfall hits. Who can blame us when we decide to return the favour when we visit :p

But I do this, I also slow down when approaching a GREEN robot. Had a guy bump into my car once cos he did not pay attention that I am about to turn!! And then when I got my brand new VW Polo, with less than 100km's on the car, I drove over a green light and some retard did not stop at a red light and drove into my car.

Most people in GP are living a lie, they believe they are good drivers :eek:
