Default Ignorant drivers and queue jumping at deli counter!


It really makes me mad when other drivers just assume that u are going 2 b the one that gives way! worse when u have right of way. Also when people just butt in at the deli counter in supermarket - yes its my goal to get out of there asap as well! but i dont have to b ingnorant. am I invisible? Huff ! I'm in a bad mood just thinking about it!

yes joanne i know wot u mean, they never give way, i had right of way once, and this oap kept comeing and comeing, i thought r u ever gonna stop, guess wot, he never and he took my drivers wing mirror clean off!
He was a misserable old sod, gave me £50 there and then tho to replace it. good job dads a macanic as it would proberley cost me more at a garage, and dad does it for free, bless him!

Deli counters....... yes im mad too, are they blind, theres a ticket machine also, that we have taken a ticket from, and then some1 just comes and jumps in front with no ticket and gets served, what is the point!
im mad now lol

Default other drivers

as i am not totally innocent of an odd mishap whilst driving, i shouldnt really comment..but its Monday morning, have to get to work very shortly, so stuff it!
I was driving around a roundabout, know i was in correct lane, driver behind me decides on a 'stunt' to overtake me on my inside instead of staying behind and exiting as would be usual (and safest). They scraped across the front of my car. Hence, they landed a hefty bill to repairs my front bumper and wing inculding new mouldings & respray +++ the cost of a privately hired car @£90 daily for a month. OUCH, dread to imagine what her next insurance premium will extend upto tut tut ..the other drivers vehicle? nice, brand new porsche 4x4 (that will teach her to overtake where she really shouldnt).

yeah, n av u noticed that these drivers who have a particularly new or expensive motor automatically assume that they will be given priority by other road users. grrr. we pay just as much road tax as these arrogant so-and-sos. hope u made sure the claim went on her insurance ...lol

I tried to offer a private settlement of repairs, IE..i take my car to an agreed repairer n other driver pays the bill, ending with goodbye n have a nice life.
BUT NOOO.. i was left a snotty message on my answering machine by her husband "on behalf of my wife".
So i just slapped a claim straight in on my angel assistance insurance n through 'helphire' i had a privately hired brand spanking new golf waiting on my driveway when i got home from work following day. She was billed for the final repair costs total + the bill for the hired car for a full month @ £90 daily..She has to present the bill to her own insurance co n make claim to settle or otherwise she has been ordered to settle her bill/s in full herself
