Why would a MC T-bone you? unless you didn't look right or the MC overtook the car turning right thats the only situation where that would happen, I'm talking about a single carriage way not big multiple lane junctions.Quote:

Flashing headlights. Only flash your headlights to let other road users know that you are there. Do not flash your headlights to convey any other message or intimidate other road users.
Rule 111
Never assume that flashing headlights is a signal inviting you to proceed. Use your own judgement and proceed carefully.
It is also a well known crash-for-cash scam.Quote:

It was all over the news a few years back.

Why some parents won't let their children choose their own career! Maybe that's why I have had four careers? :)
A couple for fellow allergy sufferers:
Why brands put a label in every garment made of something that makes it completely unwearable and is hard to remove without damaging it.
Why when you ask if there’s a cake without dairy the reply is, ‘No but we have one without gluten, would you like that?’
Why they then ask if you’d like milk in your tea…
…and then say you can’t have any of the other food because the curry has coconut milk, and there are eggs in the salad.
Since when did cows lay eggs? :dontknow:

Breakfast - dinner - tea.
You've heard of dinner ladies right, what did they serve you at school.
The introduction of lunch is another Americanism gone mad

Presumably she stood there yapping for an indeterminate period repeatedly pressing the button. I was lucky enough to escape the trap after the first pressing. What a tawt.
There do seem to be a few a-holes who can not pass a controlled crossing without pressing the button. Where's a sniper when you need one :icon_biggrin:
Parents (Usually mothers) who push the pram with their children inside into the road as some kind of "tester" to see if its safe or vehicles slow down before they themselves decide to cross.
Inspired by T-junction one above: People who don't use their rearview mirror
Waiting to pull out at T-Junction - long line of traffic comes past but you can see a gap coming up, but as the last car of the queue gets near it slows down and flashes presumably to let you out, why not look in the rearview mirror see the massive gap behind you. By slowing down you've narrowed the gap behind you AND made me overly cautious, if I pull out infront of you, presuming you are in fact letting me out but it turns out you weren't we might crash and I would be at fault for pulling out infront of you.
How or why Kanye West is a Billionaire!
McDonalds.
Every time I drive past there’s a queue at the drive through.
Why people queue up to eat that shit I’ll never know.
And why so many don't know how to use a bin.Quote:

And linked to this, those people that happily smoke a fag in an outdoor seating area while surrounded by people eating and young children. Yes you’re allowed to do it but just because you can doesn’t mean you should! The sooner smoking is banned in all areas where people eat and drink the better.
‘Thought for Today’ and ‘Desert Islands Discs’, the pontificating and sanctimony is toe curling.

Why Mark Chapman murdered John Lennon?
People who drive a 300 mile round trip to visit Clarksons ‘Diddly Squat’ farm shop.
Does anybody still listen to Desert Island Discs - I thought the target group since the change of presenter was the under-5s (who typically are much more adept at turning off their Tapatalk default signature)? I heartily recommend Private Passions on Radio 3.Quote:

Why people place their dirty plates/cups adjacent to the dishwasher. Go the final yard and put them IN the dishwasher
Absolutely….Tea is a drink and not your…”dinner”….Quote:

Can you imagine the confusion for overseas visitors…..”what would you like for tea” ? Errrr “Earl Grey”…
I will however concede there is such a thing as “Afternoon Tea” which should be partaken at Fortnum & Mason…..
A survey across the U.K. found the following
52% now call the evening meal Tea…..how crass
37% call it Dinner …quite properly
5% call it supper..presumably religious
6% call it a mixture of all 3….Liberal Democrats
Liverpool 79.8% its Tea….
Brighton & Hove 69.57% its Dinner…
Scones……..discuss….:biggrin-new:
