Ew!
I thought I’d seen it all when I saw some stupid bitch eating cereal out of a beaker whilst pulling off the M4 onto J26 (I think). I was doing 70 and she undertook me. Unbelievable.

Once you have spent more time back on uk roads you will realise this stuff isn't the worst of it, the standard of driving appears to have dropped dramatically in the last few years & there are few coppers out there to do anything about it
Be careful out there !
I saw enough during my infrequent trips back to the UK to scare me. I almost considered staying off two wheels because of the twats driving now and is one of the main reasons for buying the big Panzer.Once you have spent more time back on uk roads you will realise this stuff isn't the worst of it, the standard of driving appears to have dropped dramatically in the last few years & there are few coppers out there to do anything about it

Something else I've noticed, too. Ok, so we all know that men bash women drivers and vice versa but the only things I think men are guilty of, in very general terms, is excess speed and driving aggressively. Whenever a car does something even more stupid, it's almost always a woman. They invariably spend more time pissing about with their hair and make-up in the mirror instead of looking where they're going; dicking around in their handbags; sure, I've seen plenty of men on the phone but I have yet to see a man texting behind the wheel (I'm sure it happens but I've never seen it) yet I've seen more women do it than I can shake a stick at; I've seen a woman on the M20 in her 4x4 (no surprises there then) on Facebook. Fuckin' Facebook while driving!; again, whilst I've seen men cramming a pie or a mars bar in their gob behind the wheel, I have only ever seen a woman actually eating using a utensil; Slim's account of a woman making a sandwich while driving is astonishing. That's almost as stupid as the farmer dropping diesel on the road. I've only ever seen women turn around 180 degrees whilst driving to shout at their idiot kids in the back of the car but I've never seen a man do it.
Oh, I have yet to see a woman get involved in a road rage incident. Again, I'm sure it happens but I've never seen it.
Men will always be involved in more incidents because more men drive than women, so that's a statistical near-certainty. However, I would imagine that women are guilty of the more foolish and reckless incidents.
Just out of interest, Kent Dibble now have an HGV that they use for catching fuckwits on their phones. They collect video footage, radio ahead and said fuckwit gets collar felt and presented with video evidence. Genius! Apparently, three other Dibble forces do the same; I wish they'd all do it and up the points to 9 and make the fine five figures. That would focus a few minds.

Funny you should mention this, I was driving back from Harwich early Monday morning and saw a woman eating a bowl of cereal whilst driving. I can understand a sandwich/chocolate/etc but an actual bowl of cereal in her lap with a spoon is just too far!!
And I've always hated mobility scooters on the road. I've almost hit one myself and have seen chaos in town when some old git is trundling down the middle of the lane at 4mph thinking it's perfectly acceptable. Makes me mad!!

I agree.
Unbelievable.
If she was able to undertake then you were clearly in the wrong lane.
If you'd read my post properly, you'd have seen that I wrote "...whilst pulling off the M4 onto J26...". I was in the inside lane and she was going down the slip road, you bell-end.

Any half decent considerate driver would have anticipated the manoeuvre and moved into moved into lane 2 in a considerate manner to assist vehicles joining from the slip road.

Are you sure you were there??
She was leaving the motorway!
No. It was a figment of your imagination.
