Baby on Board stickers and all the other nonsense that eejits stick on the back window of their motors
When:-
1. There is clearly no baby on board; &
2. I have time to spare; &
3. I am feeling in the right mood....
I rush up to the driver, cell' phone in hand, point out there is no baby aboard, & offer to call the police as the baby has clearly been abducted.
The reactions can be quite amusing !

Cyclists......
Sat waiting to turn right out of a junction, with indicator on, cyclist comes up on right hand side and sits next to my front wing waiting to turn right as well. As my window was down, I said “I am turning right up you know”, “do what you want” was his response.
Of course it would be my fault if I didn’t give him enough room........Joined the BMWX5 45e group

The ar$e of a woman who decided to park next to me in the Braehead car park. There was limitless spaces but she had to park next to me. Given I managed not to get totalled by her driving into the space ( I was loading the boot at the time and thank goodness I didn’t step,back) she didn’t leave enough space for the aged passenger that get out. Severe looks all round. How do these people get on the road?Once you have defeated the idiots any job is half done. Pity there are so many idiots to defeat.

A (late) acquaintance of mine used to keep a stash of plastic dog-poos in his car and leave one on the seats of people who left the tops of their convertibles down whilst they were in the supermarket. No particular reason - just a quirk!

The idiot service advisors at Arnold Clark who couldn’t give me a price for an oil and filter change on the wife’s car cause I wouldn’t give them the mileage!!!!
Total computer says no generation who should not be working as “service advisors “ if they don’t no a bonnet from a boot Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!

1. That's what off-road height and side steps / rock sliders are for - to stop your car door getting hit.
2. Your signature line reminded me of a quote I read: I'm not saying we should kill all the stupid people, we should just remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

Absolutely. Unless you can persuade Flack to service you.

specifically going to a shop to buy something only to be told they don't hold stock at the store and will need to order it in. Then they say it will be 3 days to collect in store or if you go home and order it yourself on their website it will be delivered free to your door tomorrow!MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten
