    Can anyone bloody explain to me why a fair number of bastard people fecking indicate they're turning right when they goddamn want to go straight through a roundabout?

    They're just trying to piss me off aren't they. But really I don't get it...conceptually, how is going straight through a roundabout a right turn in any way, shape or form?? Bollocks.

    Cause a group of mentally retarded people (known as National Party) fucked up the road rules confusing other mentally retarded people & this is the end result... well this, hold ups at intersections, & people stopping at the end of & giving way at merge lanes

    I don't do the left right left with the signals at roundabouts, I'm usually thru and gone before the opposition know what they are doing themselves !

    Cause we have road rules and nobody to enforce those rules...

    Some people are too thick to really be allowed to drive...

    Those that taught them had no idea either...

    They're twats!

    Look at me! Look at me! Look at what I drive...

    They're just so entitled...

    And while we're on the subject - tailgating me cause the traffic ahead is doing less than the posted speed limit because of whatever reason up ahead isn't going to make the traffic ahead of me go any faster!

    The old place isn't the same without all you Good Cunts!
    Where the bloody Hell Are Ya, to quote some ozzie broad from way back.
    Got 3 (yes, just the 3) Motocunting bikes in the shed, a day off, I can go anywhere I want. Butt, where? Tim Buck Funking two? Bum Fuck North East of the fing equator?
    Na, so I'll just get out the List (YOU FUCKERS KNOW WHICH LIST) The one the wife leaves casually lying about on the breakfast island, High Lighted in Bright Bitching Purple, with Clean Shitter, Wash Down the fucking shower, I'm using Poetic fucking licence here , OK, She'd never write clean the fucking shower! scrape old body fat of the liner maybe, but nothing that might indicate she gives, or wants a f..k.
    So here I sit, spilt me tea over that bloody Possum of Ash's and now I've got to take the stray cat we didn't want that is now or Queen and lording it master to the sodding Charge anything for so little, Vets, cause it's got a sniffle.
    Ah well, shes a good wee pussy, so this time aye.
    Ride (If you can be arsed) on!

    There's quite a lot of water in the river atm. By the time you've pulled the KDX out of a hole, recovered from trying to start the TT - and given youself a hernia moving the Lemans, it'll be Sunday and you'll be too fucked to make it up here.
    Nice that you're thinking of coming up here though. Be kind to pensioners day is it ?

    How come it is only Labour voters in their shitty little tin boxes who do it then?

    That's a pet pieve of mine: tiny roundabouts. Operating the indicators as required is pretty much impossible. It's easier just to drive straight over the ones that are only painted on the road.

    Wanted to rant last night, but too much pain to concentrate.
    Fucked my back again. CUNTING FUCK FUCKITY.

    Anyhoo. Rant is about my chev. I wanna put a couple turbos on it, but a 2 bolt main won't last if I do. Sweet I'll google up and see what I've got....NOPE. ID numbers ending 010 are four bolt...maybe. Only way to actually know is to take the sump off.

    That's fucking dumb!

    The worst offenders seem to be manybof my trucking colleagues

    But if you think that’s bad... a local meth head(was on his FB page) boyracer decided to do a u-turn around the outside lane of a double lane roundabout in rush hour traffic (well that was the story his bush lawyer father peddled in legal documents, the actual driver himself couldn’t even remember which road he had entered from, also contradicted By eye witness)
    After admitting fault at the scene in front of an independent witness they then decided later to take to court.

    They lost btw....

    Anyhow doing research to help out the affected family member came across an article mentioning what pritch day says above. The ltsa agrees that many of our small roundabouts its impractical to signal in required time and drivers should not solely rely on indicators to work out someone’s intentions.
    One interesting thing I found was that you MUST indicate right if travelling more than halfway (physically think of clock face) around the roundabout. So at many of the suburban ones where you have only two exits instead of three and the second exit is say at your one o clock you must indicate right. This is prob where bad habit comes from of people indicating right when going straight at a three exit hobby.....

    Any idea why they have all gone gay with the LED lights over the last year or so?

    It's gone from a Yorkie eating mans job to well, probably an Olympic medal in the offing.
