Failed to doff my cap to car occupants

Hirsute · 2020-12-11T14:16:55+00:00

Was almost home and eventually made the right turn into the estate road despite cars at and opposite the junction. As I made my way along the the side road and going past a few cars on the opposite side of the road, an old vauxhall appeared from the other way so I made sure there was no room to squeeze through. The response was V signs from the passenger as they had to stop. I hope they don't drive given how close the parked cars were to the junction, the parked car opposite the junction and hence the need to approach slowly. I suppose it's 'share the space' or something that I failed to do.

One morning walking out of

One morning walking out of the village on a 30 mph road, I heard a car coming up behind way too fast , I half turned and gave the upturned “query” palm gesture. No prizes for guessing the return gesture in the windscreen.

It was a young guy, driving a newish white Fiat 500 with his girlfriend; my wife said it was futile, but I live in hope that there might be a realisation, an unravelling, possibly borne out of self-preservation, that this guy gets a kick out of causing upset everywhere he goes.

I did the weekly shop by car
I did the weekly shop by car today and carefully noted the gap left and right as I passed the parked cars. I would have had to have hopped on the pavement.

Shame on you making someone

Shame on you making someone in a 1 ton metal box have to slow down for 3 seconds, you know you should have disappeared into thin air the instant they wanted to use the piece of road you were on. I expect the driver explained to his passenger the error of his ways.
