Audi's without exception

Do they not fit indicators to them? FFS. And has my car got a magnet on the back that keeps them at a max of 2 inches distance, TWATS.

Was that you holding me up the other day by doing an imitation of a rolling road block? Not my fault that you couldn't see my indicators as you were crawling along in you're own little world causing a traffic jam and preventing those of us with things to do and places to be making progress.

Sorry, BMW's are still the worst by a longshot for not indicating. Lexus and Mercedes drivers seem to be the worst for lane hogging and being totally oblivious to anything outside their own car.

Yeah it was, sorry

Toyota Carena's and Avensis', Nissan Primera's, any KIA, any Hyundai or Daewoo/Cheverolet - Not a general rule, but mostly bought by people who have absolutely no interest in driving and therefore no idea about how to do it properly, including thinking that the left lane of a motorway is for lorries only. Especially anywhere near Birmingham. Edit: Nissan Micra's too. OK over. As for Jaguar drivers, I don't think they stand out over and above the norm really

Any front wheel drive Nissan or Audi driver is in with a shout, as are those with small displacement BMWs that think they're cool (cuz they've got a Beemer innit?!)

Toyota prius drivers. This may date back to a previous essex meet...

Ten years ago BMW's were the automotive clitoris (every tw@t had one) and you could drive, safe in the knowledge that all the aggressive idiots were clearly marked out by the blue propellor, so everyone else could give them a wide berth. The thing that I now find disturbingly confusing is that BMW drivers now occasionally wave me out at a junction. I was even cut up by a Saab driver a couple of weeks ago, which has fundamentally undermined my confidence in being able to read the road and identify any potential tools in my line of sight.

Any taxi driver, regardless of what car they're driving.

Particularly (in London) mini-cab drivers, who seem to only drive cars that don't have seatbelts, and show a complete disregard for the 'rules' of the road.

Dont recall seeing many Jags being driven by cocks. Has to be Audis

Bugger prestige brands or the like... Have a trip to Bradford - it crosses every possible demographic. It is basically a city full of shite! How I managed to keep the bodywork on my VX in one peice still beggars belief. Being brutally aware of my own mortality and good observational skills saved my arse on many occasions.

I often wonder how many crashes / incidents I would have (had) if I drove as bad / carelessly as some of the drivers out there!

What are we classing as bad driving? I can forgive anyone for a mistake, I tolerate slow drivers, and I always give way to people reversing whether they are in the right or wrong. It's aggressive drivers that wind me up, the ones who are up your backside, and it does seem to be Audi drivers quite often.

I wasn't referring to genuine 'mistakes' ...which anyone can make, but general ignorant / inconsiderate manoeuvres that obstruct other drivers, and often break the law in doing so, without even acknowledging or apologising for it afterwards.

Ah yes, audi drivers

It's not my fault you're so fcuking slow.

Well it seems Audi is the new pariah. Having recently sold the family BM estate I'm glad I decided on replacing it with a VW rather than the Audi I was considering. P.S. Beware Saab drivers, potential bell ends in sheeps clothing.

Jags seem to be old people, have no bother with them its the bmw/audi's with posh twats on the phone. They cut me up, sit up my arse, pull infront of me too early flicking stones up, braking too early and hard because they're not taking notice when im behind. Most the time someone in a bmw/audi does something wrong and i get to the side of them to give abuse they are on the phone.

Them being on the phone while attempting to drive, puts them 'in the wrong' immediately, even before / if they don't do anything else wrong!

[astravxr]

I've also noticed, when these idiots do something wrong for example pull infront of me and the car infront making me slam my brakes on... when i get to the side of them to give them the fingers they dont look, they could at least give the thumb up to say sorry. I could sit side by side for ages and they just dont look as they're snobby twats and they know they're in the wrong... boils my p*ss that does, makes me feel like slamming into the side of them lol

I agree with you there!

They should at least apologise somehow, a little wave or something, just to admit they were wrong.

Now that I'm doing 60 mile daily commute I have to say the biggest knobs are Alfa drivers. Specifically those in the new ones with the weird rear round LED lights. Seem to think they have a stylish, sporty Italian sports car even though they ordered it with a tight ass diesel... grumble, grumble
