Fact: If car drivers are indicating that means everybody has to lie down and keep quiet till he's passed you. That was the impression given this morning, two lanes, I'm in the left, car driver's in the right, we are alongside each other. He indicates left and then GIVES ME A BLAST ON THE HORN! !!!


WTF!!! Where am I gonna go?

I turn and react badly, eff off and two figers, he blasts me again and then I peddle off.


Silly sod.

    Did something happen earlier on between you and this driver? Just a thought...

    Well, um , actually the driver had roared away from an earlier set of lights for no apparent reason, but I was behind him then, he probably never saw me. But then, ho chooses the wrong lane and uses his indicators as a way of bullying people off the road!

    I just totally ignore these types and their antics, why stress myself just because someone else is clearly blowing a gasket?

    Seem to be people in those new minis beeping me. Maybe they are always in a rush or something.
    I got over to the right on chelsea bridge and had a mini-driving-lady beeping me, not because she wanted to go right too, but because she wanted to overtake a car on the left.

    There seem to be a high proportion of new minis and smart cars that are driven like bumper cars. Blunts the lot of them.

    Presumably in which case you can address the driver as "Camp Freddie"
