The roads down here need a judge, jury and executioner. Same troubles here in the three counties. We need someone like Judge Dredd on his Lawmaster to make short work of them. I accept a certain amount of agricultural traffic is inevitable in rural area but some of these blokes just take the p***.
I've done the undertaking trick as well Arch, on reflection not proud of it, and try consciously to avoid doing it now. Wait for gap in the traffic and get into right hand lane however long it takes, then back into left. Try not to blow my top while waiting.
Agreed. Thing is, contrary to popular belief, I’m not a complete arseh•le.. But these slow moving vehicles are everywhere down here and as pig ignorant as you like. It’s like they are purposefully tryIng to inconvenience other road users. They won’t pull over or take any considerate action, then guaranteed you get some bloödy egg behind them, who’s too scared or doddery to overtake. So you’re stuck there. Travelling along at 25 miles an hour in a 60 zone for hours on end. Until you eventually snap and either get completely effed off and change your route, or try something risky, putting you and others in danger. And why? Because of these stupid, selfish c***s! Makes my blood boil! Like you ltd, I accept that tractors need to be on our roads in rural areas but these Laura C*ntssbergs are all over the A30 dual carriageway (The nearest thing Cornwall has to a motorway) an all, up and down like a bride’s nightie, all day long. And don’t even get me started on those muppets on push bikes that don’t even need to be on the road, but just can’t help indulging in their selfish little hobby at everyone else’s expense!!. Takes the pïss. Here’s what I’d do: 1) Make people take a full driving test (theory and practical) once every 10 years. That would get some of these doddery old idiots and shyte drivers off the road. 2) Cyclists should only be aloud to ride where there’s a cycle path, on designated lanes or in a velodrome. 3) Tractors should not be allowed on the roads between 7am-10am and 4pm-7pm.

I’d take an even more severe line than that. Hung, drawn, quartered and then shot. Absolutely drives me nuts this. Thankfully, I don’t have to do as much motorway driving as I used to but when I do, as soon as I get on there, there’s someone pootling along in lane 3 of a 4 lane stretch with nothing in lanes 1&2, completely oblivious to what’s going on behind them. Get out of the f***ing way you dawdling @rseholes! I here this. I go nuts. I can’t help it. I know it’s not big or clever but I end up making a big deal of undertaking them. I know I shouldn’t but I can’t help myself sometimes. It’s either that or I run them off the road. My personal best for undertaking cars in a row who are refusing to move into the slow lane on a motorway/dual carriageway is 7. The police/highways should bust all of these idiots. Keep me from risk of listening to the voices in my head. Surrey Transport Police twitter have confirmed it’s not technically undertaking if you don’t deliberately change lane or accelerate so if you’re maintaining your speed and in the inside lane you can wave with impunity at these #$&@s. They won’t see you though because they’re concentrating on the vehicle 200m in front with their foot hovering on the break pedal.😡🤬

I was driving to work one day last week, I must have overtaken between 10 and 20 tractors and about 20 different cyclists. C***s! They were everywhere. I just snapped. I look back on some of the overtaking I did and I’m not proud. Could so easily have ended in tears. Tonks's sons are fairly ingenious with welding equipment, gas cutting torches, spanners, wrenches and the like arch, in fact i'd say that 'The A-Team' wouldn't stand a chance against them in a - 'Who can build the most ridiculous looking but highly deadly contraption with nothing but a few scraps of metal, ball of string and some double sided tape' competition, SO, get them to build a roof mounted anti tractor/bicycle heavy artillery gun for 'Chardonnay'. Not only would you eradicate the local roads of these hideous idiots, just think of how much fun your daily commute would then become
