Indicators
 

Grrrr Just a note to pillocks who have lost the plot..

Indicators... they are not for letting us know you are turning left or right. they are not for letting us know you are changing lanes.

We can see that when you are doing it!

Indicators are there to indicate your intention to do these things... If you turn the steering wheel and indicate at the same time it is useless.. Indicate BEFORE you turn or change lanes then we know what your going to do!!!

Also... . I stood on a very cold street corner (now then) with my kids this morning waiting to cross the road but a car was approaching us.... then it turned just before it got to us.... No other cars about so the driver must have decided no need to indicate... grrrrr


On a lighter note ........................

Wasn't a BMW was it, I find that BMWs must have an inherent fault with their indicators because no sodding BMW drivers seem to know how to turn them on!

Oh and to the bloke in the saxo coming over Thelwall, pay attention its not good for my heart to see you all crossed up and smoking tyres as you try to stop yourself from running into the back of me due to you not paying attention to the flow of traffic. I don't think the guy in the merc was too happy about you nearly sideswiping him out of his lane either! Still on the other hand, I bet your journey home to change your pants was at a more sedate pace and attentive state.

Oooh one of my pet peeves too. Why do some drivers assume that pedestrians do not count when it comes to indicating?:mad:

I also get miffed with drivers who wave pedestrians across in front of them, not taking into account that there are other cars on the road coming from other directions. I was waiting for the green man at a pelican crossing the other day when a driver stopped (his lights were green and I still had the red man in front of me) and glared at me for not crossing. I pointed at the red man. He shrugged his shoulders and mouthed something which looked like " ******* please yourself" just as a car came round the corner and right in front of me. I smiled at him and pointed to the car under the wheels of which I would then have been if I'd taken any notice of him. :rolleyes:

Your on the right track there.. It seems to me people with posh cars such as beamers and mercs, jags (ya dont see so many now) and the like.. sports cars like porch... I think they feel the road is theres so they dont have to adhere to the rules


not indicators... but people having a chat at pelican crossing..... deary me :(

Re: Indicators
 

As a driver it really gets up my nose that other drivers do this. They may think they are being kind but it's actually one of the most stupid and dangerous things to do.

As for considering pedestrians I can't say I bother too much, I don't drive on the pavement but if pedestrians want to walk on the road then they should be aware of who owns it :D :D

Re: Indicators
 

Oh really!!! Lazy inconsiderate car drivers, in fact drivers waving on pedestrians to across is safe well im still here & thankful to all those kind driivers - nowt worse than an arogant i own the rd user:( So i'd be careful cos i may arrange a car free day for you to be a pedestrian for the duration & lets see about your comment then hehehheheheehe:D

Accymel - pedestrian:p

Re: Indicators
 

I must admit i do share your gripe, thats one of the most annoying especially when walking & u dont know where the driver is going - the amount of times i've crossed & a car last minute decides to turn into rd without indicating or very last minute, same when driving grrrr those people buggered my driving tests up as my regular arguement is that im not bloody psychic & apparently u have to be!! They shouldnt be allowed to drive on the road & take a re test - no bloody excuse for indicating late & most reason for an accident - certainly with pedestrians & other road users!

Re: Indicators
 

Sorry we will have to disagree. At a pelican crossing when the green light is on it's extremely dangerous. If the motorist waving the pedestrain across the road is close to the kerb it is not unreasonable for a motorist driving up from behind to think he has parked in a stupid place and therefore will actually drive past because you wouldn't expect a pedestrian to be crossing when the lights are green !!

Re: Indicators
 

Doh yeh some responsibility is on the pedestrian to know the green cross code & not cross at certain points without checking the rd is clear beforehand just as much as a driver should be aware of the highway code!!

Re: Indicators
 

Drivers that don't indicate on mini-roundabouts get right on my nerves :mad:

Re: Indicators
 

:rofl38: we know heheheheheheheee:D

Re: Indicators
 

No point indicating if your'e driving straight over them :D

Re: Indicators
 

It really bugs me too when drivers dont indicate, I dont think its just posh car drivers though, the other thing that annoys me is drivers that cut the corners, twice this week someones nearly crashed into me because they've cut the corner, silver Saxo and male driver!:mad:
