If you drive like an absolute fool you’ll get your reward. The black Seat had been driven at excessive speed for quite a while apparently, until karma caught up with the driver and ended his little game in spectacular fashion. Sadly the owners of the white BMW and the Corsa (in front of the BMW)Continue reading “Bang!”

Bus Lane Abuse
There’s a section of bus lane I cycle down on a regular basis (pretty much all bus lanes allow cyclists) but I’ve noticed a worrying trend. Whilst I would occasionally see a car in it, it’s now getting to the point that every time I ride down it I’m tailgated by a car, often beingContinue reading “Bus Lane Abuse”
New van!
My new van was delivered on Friday. It’s the same as the old van, but those three years have made a small difference. The new one is now connected with 4G, and it has a few extra gadgets and toys.
Confrontation aborted.
Yesterday whilst driving along a road I found another driver attempting to cause a confrontation. The road in question is narrow, has cars parked along both sides with virtually no breaks, and in general when someone is coming through people tend to wait and let them through. But not this entitled tosser. My van (blue)Continue reading “Confrontation aborted.”
Bloody idiot.
I have very little tolerance for these people. You’re a professional driver. Driving is your job. It’s your career. Yes, and for a chosen career you can’t even keep in your mind the height of your vehicle. Luckily the fines and penalties for these idiots are steep and they can usually consider it the endContinue reading “Bloody idiot.”
Livid!
I’m awake again at an early hour. I’m not really sleeping too well at the moment as I have some rather painful tennis elbow. It’s in both of my elbows although my right one is the worst. It wakes me up at 5am and I have to stretch my arms and do exercises to tryContinue reading “Livid!”
Oh double fuck.
After today’s earlier episode with the Jag breaking down, now I’ve been driving along the M18 and traffic has been totally stopped. Apparently some solar panels have broken loose off a building adjacent the motorway (IKEA? Next?) and the police are holding traffic. I’ve been sat here for 20 minutes now. We’re supposed to beContinue reading “Oh double fuck.”
Oh fuck.
Driving over the Snake and the car suddenly lost power and started running on three cylinders. *Edit – might be a fault with a crank position sensor.
Group 4 park like dicks.
A blanket statement, you may think, but actually – judging by the three examples below captured within a very short period they need to prove otherwise. I am currently drawing a blank G4S over these. I emailed requesting they notify their drivers that this sort of parking and just abandoning their vehicles is not acceptableContinue reading “Group 4 park like dicks.”
Five things I discovered this week:
1. Tesco’s Mobile Phone Shop in Wath is crap. 2. Volvo drivers are blind. They must be, cos they never see anyone else on the road. 3. Apparently, you have to tune your bass weekly… damn. 4. Something I posted a month ago came true recently… read between the lines… you know what I mean.Continue reading “Five things I discovered this week:”
