I know one or two OAPs who would make you look really slow, especially on a track. You would go away and hide!
Mice Elf is right, there are bad drivers right across the spectrum, from elderly ones to young drivers who think they are God's gift and have a right to drive at stupid speeds on the public roads. I don't find the post about Mrs Patel very impressive either.

just had a bus pull out in front of me at a roundabout and seen another bus driver retaliate at a driver for overtaking him.
Are bus drivers the worst on the road?
Or is it mini-cab drivers,
or MPV drivers,
van drivers,
middle lane hoggers?
Who gets your vote?

I have nearly been hit by buses several times whilst on zebra crossings - they get my vote.
Taxi drivers tend to be ok, apart from the fact they stink and tend to fall asleep at the wheel..

I'm still with the OAP's
I followed a Purple metro doing 25 in a 40. He was driving in the middle of the road!!!
And at a junction he pulled away so slowly on to the road (it was clear at the time) and tottered at 5mph, a car travelling down the road at 40mph (probably more knowing the road) nearly went into the back of him. Talk about an instigator to accidents!

It's got to be MPV drivers taking up half the goddamn road with their big jelly moulds and gazillions of seats and just themselves
on board. Closely followed by off roaders who never go off road and are usually driven by tiny women who are sitting on a cushion and can still hardly see over the steering wheel.

I vote OAPs then school-run mums!!!
Havn't had many bad experiences with bus drivers... obviously they have to be pushy cos otherwise they would never get anywhere!! Round here they always give a thumbs up out the window if you let them out (they crush you if you don't!

lol @ jasey.
The flat cap brigade who drive well under the limit (usually on windy country roads) until the road opens up a bit then put their foot down so you can't overtake.
They deserve a mention.

(Flame suit on)
Pretty much anyone who drives for a living. Eg, Bus drivers, taxi drivers, sales reps, etc, etc. (Lorry drivers excepted).
It seems these folk have the attitude that because it's their job this somehow makes them good at it.
(Suit off)
PS. I have my moments too.

I recon my dad is the worst driver I know and my grandad (his dad) to be the worst passenger driver! He worries about Cows and Sheep in fields about 2 miles off - 
Oh and my nanna doesnt like me to drive with one hand off the steering wheel - I get shouted @ 4 it all the time.
