I agree with all of the above...:thumbsup:

But as I do 500 M/Way (M4,M25, M1) miles per week, the ones that currently wind me up the most are.
Middle/outside lane hoggers.
Muppets who speed up then slow down in front of me when I'm in cruise.
Twats with their rear fogs on when its not foggy.
Plebs that cut into my lane, causing me to brake.
Cocks that don't indicate when change lanes.
Jerks that slam their brakes on when they see blue lights on the other carriageway...
Aaaah, I found that quiet cathartic...

+1 spot on!

Drivers of high powered Audis who decide to overtake just as I've deceive to accelerate and when there's now no place for them to go, they slow down just as I deceive to slow down too.  You would think I was being awkward!  8)

Oh, don't get me started on Audi drivers....

There i was, making decent progress in the outside lane of the M4 last Friday.
When i come up behind a big black Audi saloon (don't know what model as it was un-badged).
He pulls over to let me pass, then, as i draw level with him, the Cock puts his foot down.. ::) and pulls ahead about 3 car lengths.

Now, i don't usually rise to this kind of challenge anymore (except when i'm on the Bike. ;)).
But this time i bit, and floored the pedal of my recently remapped X5, and a few seconds later the Audi was eating my dust.

But why do these Audi Cocks do this...yes and its always an Audi... :wall:

Cars with bright DRL who feel the need to tailgate as closely as possible just to show how bright they are! (yes, normally Audi)

Related to the thread topic, is there anything more irritating than the zeal of a convert?

No I wrote off a RFT on these crap roads before now

It is you in your heavy cars (similar to HGVs) that are destroying the roads !

Myth.  The weight per square cm is less than an average car because of the wider tyres.

I do agree though that the roads in Surrey and Sussex are in a shocking state though. >:(
