Driving - don't get me started

I live in a small village quite close to a town made up predominantly of pensioners.

Now, I come from the city, so I'm used to a fast pace, aggression and general driving stress. What I can't hack, however, is people who indicate where they are going, seemingly by telepathy and people driving miles and miles at 15 mph.

Don't get me wrong, I may not be The Stig myself, but I do remember a lot of the Highway Code and my mummy brought me up to have manners. So how come most people in this area make me suffer temporarily from a form of driving Tourette's?

The times I have gone on the outside lane of a dual carriageway only to get stuck behind someone who is driving slower than those in the inside lane - and they wonder why you get irate and even geture obsenities! Unfortunately, these are usually women. SHAME ON YOU!

Old people saunter along without a care in the world. They have time to meander down a 50mph road at 25 and even have the audacity to look at you as if you are the bad driver. I often wonder if one of them has actually died at the wheel. I have even been behind one who just stopped in the middle of the road without warning. WHAT'S THAT ABOUT?

Why do they need to go out at rush hour and hold everyone up? Are they getting their own back for what they did in the war?

When you hit 60, you get a free bus pass - TAKE THE HINT.
