Alternatively, the ignorant  that use the wrong lane to get ahead of the traffic and then push in front of you.

Agreed! And then adding to the problem by ensuring that those waiting to push in at the front block the lane that could have been used by emergency vehicles.

NobJockys who cut in front of you on the motorway and make you hit the brakes like a mad man hoping that you will slow down enough not to make contact with them !

This seems to getting more and more common. I commute 100 miles a day on the motorway (not in the disco) and I would say it happens at least twice every journey.
It seems that people now believe that they only have to put the indicator on and then immediately pull out without checking mirrors regardless of what is approaching. I regularly have to slam the anchors on and drop 20mph when these idiots pull out. It's even more frightening when on the motorbike.

Driving my coach on the dual carriageway, come across a motorist doing 50mph, put my signal on, kind motorist gives my a little flash to come out, I say my thanks and commit to my manoeuvre for the motorist I'm passing to speed up to 63mph knowing full well I'm limited to 62mph. I pull back in behind said motorist, looking like a c t, for him to slow back down again this time slower but it's all in a days work. 23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

I wouldn't give it a second thought. If he/she is the sort of courteous and intelligent driver that would offer to let you put, they can probably also understand why you weren't able to complete the overtake

's. That phone you up 20 times a week asking you to press 2 and they will supply you with a new boiler for free.............................if you are on benefit of course.......................................and if you don't press 2 ................................................you can press 9 to opt out of receiving more calls(which may dial to Jamaca or Mombasa and cost you £xxx).
Dialling 1471 after the ing call reveals that the number is unrecognised and is commuter generated  It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Neighbors,
Just because they suffer with ADHD that they feel they can use that as an excuse to invite all the local teenagers to come round their apartment to smoke dope, drop there KFC and Spilff ends in our communal hallways, When you kick off about it, you get labeled a bully and a intimidating,

Well, they probably have to come up with something to do on those long boring journeys.

One thing that gets my goat is weasel words in adverts. The latest to raise my hackles is Dairy Milk. They claim the milk is "from the British Isles". Sounds good, glad they're using British milk you think. However, "British Isles" includes the Republic of Ireland. Which means the milk they're using almost certainly is Irish, not British. If it was British milk they would say so directly.
They're technically correct but they aren't being wholely honest. Weasel words. Grrrr. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Got so fed up with calls about boilers, pressed 2 to speak to an advisor, told the girl my number was a secure line, ( it is not)at which point she asked if I would like a boiler, to which I asked her what her name was, and I would have a trace put on the call. They have not called back!!

Just been to Screwdix, no one in the car park, parked in a bay, no one in Screwfix other than sales staff, whilst waiting around ten other customers come in, walked out to the car park, some to$$er parked so close to me that you couldn't walk between the two cars let alone open the door, went back in side, called out for the owner of the white Kia, it's no ones  to embarrassed to own up to owning it, no fun getting in the passenger side and into the drivers seat.
