As a regular commuter on the M25 I hate to say that BMW drivers are the main offenders although recently Audi drivers are going the same way.

I will whittle this down to male BMW drivers in the south east. ;)


Well yay there Sherriff. Lets get y'all together a hangin' Posse and go get them thar rascal drivers...

Sorry Bob, but I'm with TNN on this one. I'm sure that some BMW drivers (yourself included) are polite and courteous - but unfortunately there seems to be a very noticeable contingent who are not. Many of them seem to drive those pig-ugly X6 monstrosities...

And it's certainly not confined to the South East! Yes, there are tw@ts driving other marques, but why are the ones in BMWs so obvious? Perhaps as a BMW driver yourself you are not as objective as you could be? Equally, perhaps as non-BMW drivers, neither are we? :?

Well, the lynching mob and BMW neurosis, is turning through mass hysteria into an anti BMW plague....

oh, and I thin you will find there are a hell of lot more drivers who don't know where their indicators are than just BMW drivers...!

Personally, I find more Ford Clitoris drivers, Merc drivers, and then of course the dreaded WHITE VAN MAN, as being the pushiest, drivers on the road.. M25 included.

However, each to their own experience.. I certainly use my indicators, and certainly don't flash my lights, unless you are the numpty in the fast lane, with 2 empty lanes to the left of you, no cars in front of you and driving at 55mph....

why... cos you are a *%^$&*£

Why do folk get so involved and loved-up with their cars? They are just machines when all said and done. - I mean, you don't go perving over the washing machine do you? Nor do you spend all sunday polishing the hoover. - Get a life!
I realise I hold the key to freedom. I cannot let my life be ruled by the bloody threads on this Forum.

as a wise person once said.. never waste time. be creative, create a new perversion to fulfil your day.... and if you can make money out of it... all the better...

I love my non-job! :)
