I want this special licence

11:20am Friday 8th March 2013 in Letters

I AM writing in the hope that someone out there in your readership can help me in my quest to obtain the special driving licence that allows you to abstain from indicating, obeying the speed restrictions on motorways, park in disabled spots without a badge, park on the pavement in order that people with prams, wheelchairs etc have to walk in the road to pass by, park your car over the parking lines so you can take up two spaces, become a cashpoint cripple saying “It’s no problem, I’m only going to the cashpoint”, and the many other infringements that ordinary drivers obey.

People who get agressive when they can not park outside their own home annoy me, it's not their space if it is a public road. Worst still are those who through sheer ignorance, or deliberately, take up more parking space than needed.

It's the idiots that don't indicate that annoy me......hey guess where I am going because I aint gonna tell you.......and when they have a bump they insist they were indicating.

not sure who this letter applies to what about the huge amount of blue badge gang who cruise around in their mobility cars and claim incap and manage to hold down a part time job cash in hand

Ha, well said!! I thought it was just me that was appalled at the horrendous standard of driving around here.

But then what do you expect when the police are all out chasing plant growers, or covering each others backsides.

The Harlequin Roundabout is common place for braindead's who refuse to indicate.. Most days you witness some cretin nearly always a BMW or Audi cutting somebody up in the outer lane, then trying to cross 3 lanes without indicating to get onto the Shaftsbury route(Old Sainsbury)..

I remember cutting a BMW up who refused to indicate and his face went from red to bright purple after several attempt's to pull in without indicating and everybody driving close to block him.. He worked out how to indicate!!

Also when they see a police car and there indicators suddenly work..

Or there happily doing 50 - 60 mph in a 30 mph lane and see a speed camera que emergency brake

It's not a special licence they have an exemption card. It clearly allows them to do all the things previously stated and I would like one too, please.
I especially want the one that allows me to pull out from a side turning in front of another vehicle, making that vehicle brake furiously, then travelling well within the speed limit signal clearly that I am turning right at some point in the next two miles. When I eventually reach a nice turn off I will wait in just the right position to cause a major tailback. What am I waiting for? traffic travelling in the opposite direction to appear so that I can lurch forward across their path, causing them to brake furiously too.

Something else I've noticed around here is that a lot of people slow right down to 20-25mph for speed cameras. Could somebody please explain to me wtf that is all about?

Also highlighted over the winter months are the (staggeringly insane) number of people who have no god damned idea what their handbrake is for, or that they're supposed to apply said brake when the vehicle is stationary. I've lost count of the number of times in recent months that I've been blinded, by some inconsiderate moron, who's too lazy to take their foot of the bloody brake pedal.

So, a message to approximately 75% of you out there... YOU SUCK AT DRIVING!! And really ought to sort that out before you, (or I), kill somebody.

Thanks :)
