Default What is it with white van drivers....

Sat at a T-junction this afternoon, very busy, but there is a set of lights 50 yards up..... so show some patience.

A white van pulls up alongside me, as if to turn left, then just pushes out into the two-way traffic and then slows to remonstrate with me

So I gave him the universal hand signal of male self abuse....

P.S. I drive mini-bus full of "special" kids twice a week, fully stickered up as well

When I used to drive a white van I always thought that gesture was asking if I liked Maxwell House. Hows tricks Dunx?

White Vans must have some gas injected into the cab via the air vents - which turns the driver into a dribbling village idiot winning tosser

Hi stevebt,

just a typical suburban t-junction....

And a spliffed-up, impatient, builder in a company van.

No regard for two lanes of moving traffic, or his passengers safety.

Can you imagine the ****-storm of paperwork if I put a mini-bus full of kids into an RTA, just 'cos I'm nearly finished at work, and need eight pints in a hurry ?
