had a couple of people pass me to stop 50 metres further on and block the road to turn right, forcing me to stop on my way home this evening, and someone close pass me on a left hand bend with a car oncoming, to then take a r/h filter lane about 2 seconds later.
why the fuck are these douchebags so fucking impatient?
a 5 second wait from the drivers in all three instances and there wouldn't have been any issues.

Some fucking dickhead this morning, tries to overtake me approaching a red light. There isn't enough room to complete the overtaking manoeuvre - because she's approaching a fucking red light and there's a fucking queue of traffic in the way - and instead of slowing down and backing off she just pulls across into me, forcing me to slam the brakes on. Gave her a proper bollocking as she sat staring straight ahead pretending like she couldn't see me, although maybe she couldn't see me which is why she almost ran me the fuck over.
Think someone said it recently, but it's these things which drive me the most crazy. Endangering people for absolutely zero fucking gain, just because you see a cyclist and your only compulsion is to get ahead of them regardless of what is on the road in front of you.
