Pillock of teh week award to teh driver of the red estate car number plate F460 VMS. As he came up behind me he started sounding his horn, and he left it on solidly as he sat behind, went past, and got some way down the road. Not discrete tooting, just put his hand on teh button and left it tehre in a continuous blare.
Offensive git of the decade award to whatever imbecilic moron came up with teh junk spam in my mailbox this morning advertising personal breathalysers under the headline "don't be a victim of drunk driving". I vote we hit him/her with a couple of tons of steel at 110 mph and then ask them if they still consider the driver to be the victim of the incident. I thought spammers were pretty low, but this is really scraping the barrel evcen by spammers standards. "Don't be a murder victim - avoid killing people"?

Probably just traded in his old banger for a new one, and was trying to operate the windscreen wash but the wash/horn were on the other stalk.

I find that on my cycle ride into town & back, there's "the regulars" who pass by me too close. So far, I've got a partial registration number of a brown Sierra and there's a cement mixer with an obscured rear number plate that does the same. In addition, the drivers of the X94 (First) bus service seem to think that driving a huge bus six inches from the side of my shoulder is acceptable.
On the plus side, I find the drivers of HGVs belonging to the firm Jack Richards & Sons at Fakenham are true knights of the road - they *always* treat me with courtesy. Plus the little local Konect buses that do the lanes round my bit of Norfolk are usually very courteous.
Cheers, helen s

Suggestion: Christmas is coming, why not send a suitable sum to the transport manager with instructions to let the boys know how much you appreciate their exemplary driving and what a pleasure it is to share the road with them.

Mrs. Hall's pillock of the week was the bus driver who overtook her as she was preparing to turn right.

I've already written a Nice Letter [TM] to said company and I am reliably informed by one of the drivers that it is on the drivers' noticeboard,

The buses round here can be pretty bad. At £5.70 an hour (they're ALWAYS recruiting) they're not going to get trained Rolls-Royce chauffeurs though.
