Idiot drivers who think they own the road


Was out on my push-bike yesterday with my wife and came to the conclusion there are some very stupid people in control of cars. Riding in single file, we got a variety of hand-gestures out of side and rear windows, plus got squirted by windscreen wiper jets as cars passed. I’m assuming this was because we held some drivers up for a few seconds. We also got hooted at and abused because were were riding two abreast at one point, and a car approaching from behind had to slow down because something was coming in the opposite direction. I lost count of the number of times drivers couldn’t be bothered to give us enough space. All depressing, but what was more depressing was the number of drivers doing this who had kids in the car with them. We were heading to the coast for the day and so were they. Small-minded parents teaching their kids that this is acceptable behaviour. I’ve had all of the above before, but never so much in one day.
