Default A Real Idiot Impreza Driver

It was my misfortune this evening to see a real idiot driving an Impreza, he and drivers like him really do make me ashamed to drive the same marque.

At approx 6.30pm I was at the roundabout at junction 45 off the M4 in the correct lane heading to get onto the westbound M4 when the driver in question comes on the inside of me, I second guessed what he was going to do next.

He cut into my lane at speed as the traffic was coming to a stop for a red light, he nearly wiped out the car in front of me with his suicidal driving as squeezed between the lanes, the traffic which had a green light had to brake to avoid him or he would have gone straight into the side of them.

As he then joined the westbound M4 he almost lost it as he entered the slip road, what an absolute nobber to say the least.

For the record he was driving a UK Blobeye in WR blue sporting Subaru swooshes on his rear spoiler, his registration number was P555WRC and I'm only sorry there were no red light cameras or Police there to witness this clown.

If you are the driver in question then slow down as you cheesed off a lot of other road users and are a real danger on the roads.

This idiot on here then

There's another near me, drives like a retard, same car and colour, I was having a conversation with my neighbour about it a week or so ago.
My neighbour was telling me that I should really slow down and have respect for other road users?

As I was telling him it wasn't me, the tw@ drives past.

Sort of sorted that one out

I'm a firm believer in 'there's a time and a place' as we all like to have a blast now and again and I wouldn't say at 6.30 on the M4 is it, I recognise that plate though not sure who's it is though?

I probably do around 1000 miles a week and I have seen every type of bad driving known to man, I can usually guess what will happen now well before it does based upon other drivers road positioning.

I know, the trouble is that all Impreza drivers get 'tarred with the same brush' and we are all assumed to be the same. I think it is a case of the Impreza and other performance cars now being within easy reach of plebs and clowns.

I think you were a bit out of your area and were confused by the road signs?

I haven't seen the car before but I will keep an eye out for it now, if only to stay out of the idiots way.

You are right there is a time and place and a busy roundabout with multiple junctions and driving through a red light is definitely not the place.

Craig it would seem then that he is a muppet of the highest order, it's only a matter of time before he wipes himself or others out.

I only hope that if the big one does come along for him that he is solo and nobody else is around to be caught up in it.

The trouble is of course that muppets like the driver in question push up all our motoring costs.

What an absolute nobber this guy is then, point him to this thread if you see him from time to time.

I hope he gets caught before he causes an accident, I can't believe this mong must have done some A&E work in his training and seen what carnage can be caused.

I think his ability is definitely outweighed by his ambition, he obviously thinks of the roads as his own personal race track.

I Dont care how people drive as long as there curtious or if they do something wrong apologise. I can't stand people hoggin the fast lanes. Or pull out in front of you. Or change lane without indicating. Or speeding up so not to let you in. I have had people cut me up sometimes i think on purpose with no apology. And when i give them the same medicine they have not liked it or when someone in fast lane not overtaking anyone for milesand wont move out the way i undertake them and make them stay behind me for while at a slowed down pase. If you Dont like it Dont do it yourself.

I am sure since owning a scoob they tend to think i not moving you can stay behind me. All i can say is not for long mate.

Might be sensible drivers but less sensible in choosing a car. That being a wagon and not a the properr saloon.

I have seen the fella a few times myself but never witnessed any poor driving as yet. I spend much of my working week traveling around much of South Wales and to tell the truth there are dicks in every make and model of car from busted up Fiestas to Lambo's. The trouble with the scoob is it stands out as a bit lairy even when standing still so we are automatically seen as clowns and road warriors. People driving a scoob like a dick just compound the problem which is a real shame for those of us that don't do it!!
