to indicate?!

Do people not know how to properly or is it just laziness?

I know there are bigger things to get annoyed about but it doesn't half wind me up at roundabouts!

Correct me if I'm wrong but when approaching a round about:

1. indicate left if turning immediately left.

2. If going straight on don't indicate until after the exit before yours and then indicate left.

3. If going round to the right (your turning is past halfway) indicate right until before your turn when you indicate left.

There are other things that annoy me when driving but that is top.

What annoys you?

People in the gym abusing the equipment. I'll indirectly pay for that, you fucker.

Or not putting it away. Or hiding all the 5kg plates behind the 25kg plates (I can handle it now, but I remember when I couldn't).

It used to be everything wound me up. I found I arrived at a destination really stressed and angry, so I no longer sweat the little stuff that other idiots do. I assume that all others on the road will pull some sort of cockwomble manoeuvre and give everybody space accordingly.

I get to destinations far more relaxed now.

if you aren't strong enough to place the weights down don't lift them! By dropping the weight you're missing out half of the exercise!

Ooo yes!

If you can lift it, you can lower it, instead of dropping it.

Yesterday someone was kicking the punching bag, and I've seen it break before that way.

Not an issue yesterday, I was on legs (hence deadlift comment), but sometimes I have to hunt all over for dumbbells. Your mother doesn't live here, be a good boy and put them away.

Getting stuck behind someone used to annoy me until I realised being behind them was only making my journey longer by seconds not minutes

I assume that everyone on the road (not just others) is capable of cockwomblery at any time.

The only thing that really bugs me - when someone is turning down your road or coming around the roundabout and aren’t indicating.

Think how many times you could have gone at a roundabout or pulled out of a road but you didn’t because someone didn’t indicate.

People who can’t use slip roads correctly

People who sit at about 50mph on the inside lane til a truck starts to over take then they speed up forcing the truck to sit in the middle lane.

People who can’t read ahead in a road situation.

That’s my main three.

People who don’t f*****g look twice before pulling out. It’s not enough to look once, because of the way vision and brain communicate.

Somebody did this to me a while back; I had to swerve to avoid and would have been killed if there had been traffic in the other direction.
