Problematic drivers

February 2nd, 2008 Posted in Chronicles

Driving on the road can be a challenge at times, and a test of patience as well. I’m sure those of you who drive everyday will know what I mean.

I’ve met some ‘interesting’ drivers on the road, some are just plain irritating, others however are nearing idiocy. Below are the few types of drivers I’ve encountered:

  • The slow driver who is either afraid of speed or don’t know what the accelerator pedal is for and will just drive at speeds of 20-40km/h even when there’s absolutely no other vehicles in front.
  • The sleeping beauty at the traffic light who probably has fallen asleep while the light is red or has reaction times of a slug that takes forever to get the line moving when the light turns green. Even worse is they only start to move when the light turns amber to red.
  • The lost driver who does not even know which lane to take and either stays in the middle of two lanes, or takes the inner lane then cuts in and out trying to cause accidents.
  • The snail at the curb driver who turns at junctions at a slug’s pace and causes jams or the opportunity to turn to be lost to other unfortunate drivers behind them.
  • The idiot overtaker who will stop at nothing to overtake you even though it will get them to their destination no faster as the front is all jammed up!

I suppose there are still lots of other types of drivers around, do share your experiences with such ‘interesting’ drivers!
