You can't put things like that on Scoobynet. What are all the keyboard warriors going to post about now? Any moment now, we're going to have the ninja/black belt warriors wading in with their street fighting skills.

I hogged lane 3 today at 60mph:

With an irate Audi driver up my **** wondering why I was slowing down:

There was a Polish car tranporter in lane 2 which was very badly loaded, and top heavy. Which was swaying precariously side to side and looked like it was going to go over. It looked like either a tyre failure or his air-suspension had packed in.

And I wasn't going near it until it had regained stability, and stayed in lane 2 rather than swaying and pitching all over the three lanes. So I held back; as did a car 2 car lengths infront of me in Lane 2 and a truck in lane 1

Meanwhile Irate Audi tries an undertake on me and realises that a) there isn't enough room to do so between cme and the car in lane 2 to perform such a manouver. And b) the said truck was looking like it was about to topple and sheepish drops back again. Well done Mr king of observation.

Of course I gave the Pole a good blast of the horn on passing after he straightened out, to sort out his truck, or only have have a tug whilst staitionary Then I resumed back to trying to keep the boot shut.

Don't know what it is about Beemers.

I've owned a couple and drove like a c*ck.

I then bought the Impreza and I'm Mr Nice Guy again.

Now my wife's bought a Beemer, which I occasionally drive and yes, I drive like a c*ck again.

WTF?

Is there any chance that you are a ****?

When I had a scoob I drove flat out everywhere regardless of other road users and conditions. When I had bikes I rode flat out everywhere regardless of other road users and conditions. When I had minis I drove flat out everywhere regardless of other road users and conditions. When I had a 1.4 Almera I drove flat out everywhere regardless of other road users and conditions. - Strangely, in a period of three months, I wrote off the last bike, had my first experience of waking up in hospital with a neck collar, turned 30, my eldest kid was born, Scoob was stolen, I got a BMW and I stopped driving everywhere flat out regardless of other road users and conditions.

If we follow Niks train of logic, all people with minis, bikes, scoobs, almera's, no kids and no experience of their own mortality are all a bunch of ******* who drive with their heads up their *****, while BMW drivers are fairly sensible, level headed grown ups, who realise that they aren't immortal and neither are other road users.



p.s. - Nik - I guess from your username that you drive an MY 02 scoob? No wonder the guy was distracted and couldn't drive... you know it isn't fair to other road users to subjest them to such visual terror

Steady, him and his equally massive mates (all ex-regiment don't you know) might come and 'pay you a visit' for taking the **** like that.

Ian, the way that Escort was holding you up in the BMW racing lane, I'm surprised you didn't give him a little love touch to help him on his way...
