Well, what's the crack? car drivers swinging out to go round a corner, do they think they are driving artic. lorries or what?

I have been noticing that a lot as well. Is it something to do with driving games on the consoles?

Numpties approaching the junction too fast or incapable of assessing how much space they actually need.

Usually just stupid, though.

Well don't come to the States on holiday, the drivers here will drive you mad (as they do me). The best way to predict a driver is going to turn right is that they are swung out to the left as far as possible in their lane.

I wouldn't mind what people thought they were driving so long as they remembered that signalling really isn't optional.

had been noticing this style of driving and yesterday, when the lights changed at the road out of tesco, someone clipped my sister's car's wing mirror, scratches etc. it happened so quickly i am not sure if it was a genuine oops, or whether it was some clown tryin to be smart goin round to the left. didn't even notice the type of car etc etc.

I have only really noticed this with modified cars, or those wee ones the newbies drive.

You know, boy racers.

String 'em up I say.

Mostly on mobile phones.
