Things that inexplicably miff you off!
Definately getting a grumpier old man....
This drives me crazy but I don’t know why?
Drivers who think it’s perfectly okay to stick their satnav and the mobile phone holders in the middle of their windscreen! Aaarrrgghhh!
Women drivers travelling behind me on the motorway who spend all their attention putting on their make up or texting inane to each other about what they had for breakfast!
Any others?

Old b d neighbours who think it is perfectly ok to light the smokiest dirtiest bonfire on a lovely sunny day which makes my entire house smell of bonfire and cover my newly washed cars in ash!
Need a tablet to calm down...

Anybody who travels with front fogs on when its not foggy because it looks pretty.The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

With Farmer Chalk on the badly placed navs. Once saw someone in a Mini with an ipad mounted on top of the dash on front of the steering wheel. Avoided going anywhere near them after that.
Also people driving about an inch away from the steering wheel. Would not like to be them if the airbag went off 2006 TdV6 HSE.

Brilliant! That cheered me up no end!
Another one.... you hold back out of courtesy to let another driver travelling towards you through and they are so rude or ignorant not to thank you! Drives me mad!
Worse one for the above, you hold back to let an oncoming driver through, expecting to get a reciprocal arrangement from the next oncoming driver, only to find you're sat there while 10 cars come through.
This happened to me a good few years ago on a flooded road. I let a car through using the crown of the road to reduce his wading, expecting the next car, a Vectra with chav at the wheel to let me through. He started to come through the water without even letting me get started. I decided what the hell and drove through on my side of the road in my P39a Range Rover, bloke in the Vectra had his sunroof and window open (the flooding was in the summer) and he ended up with a lap full of muddy field water as I drowned his car. I'm not proud of my aggressive behaviour but boy was it fun seeing the look on his face.
Just to let you know that Land Rovers are getting the silly indicators and I've also seen them on Peugeots and Mondeos.1972 Range Rover Classic 2 door V8
