What is this, National Drive Stupidly Day?

Guys, I know it's Friday the 13th but that's no excuse for the idiotic behaviour I've seen today. People who don't know what indicators are, people who use their indicators wrongly thus giving the impression they're turning off the roundabout when they're actually taking a later exit, people who pull onto roundabouts and then look aggrieved that they're expected to give way to traffic coming from the right, people who just pull out and expect everyone else to get out of the way.

All human life is here! *sigh*

I think it's just International Stupid Day, period.

Sounds normal to me but then I live in London AND ride a motorbike. You forgot the "boy" racers who sulk because you're riding exactly at the speed limit for that section of road i.e. 30mph and there are police camera signs on every other lamppost.

Hm, sounds like DC every day. (I thought I had seen the nadir of driving ability while living in Boston -- but no. Alas, I found to my horror that our nation's capital is the epicenter for Bad Drivers Anonymous.) Except on the other side of the road, of course...

Here is the National Drive Stupidly always, people don't use their binking signals, forget about speed limits, sometimes it seems that just doesn't exist.... then they try to overtake you by your left ( here in the civilized world that drives on the right that's incorrect ), and not to talk about freeways, that's the war!!!

Indeed. I'm sure half the drivers on the roads these days got their licenses out lucky bags.
