Yellow Box ditherers.

[derekpara]

In addition to the usual gripe about MLHs (Middle Lane Hoggers) let me add (YBDs) the Yellow Box Ditherers.

You know the ones. They refuse to move from the stop line into the yellow box when their exit is clear, thus usually preventing anyone else behind from clearing the junction before the lights change.

Not a question - just an observation to create a discussion.

Cheers.

You just have to be patient. Must agree can be annoying, but quite a few drivers appear to be unaware of rules as regard 'yellow box' junctions, especially the turning right bit.
Once I was waiting to cross, got the 'gap' went across only to get some moron overtake and take my 'gap', leaving me stuck on the 'yellow box'. Cost me £80.

And don't forget the SAR's, Stoppers At Roundabouts, when there's nothing coming they stop to check there's nothing coming, grrrrrrrr!

Yes, SlackAlice, I was mainly referring to the right turn situation.

Having patience is good advice but why don't people learn how to use the roads safely and efficiently ? (Rhetorical question) There's plenty of free advice and information out there as Wendilla has demonstrated.

And as for Blue Toffee's SARs, well it shows that their driving observation is poor and they are probably not looking further ahead than five yards beyond their front bumper. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr too !!

One better than that Derek, (MI) North bound, HGV Blowout on the outer off/s steer axle, tyre fitter with brain like a rocking horse puts cones out on the inside lane to attempt to change the wheel, & the stupid bloody driver looking on, needless to say the clown of a HGV driver had, by the looks of him had just passed his test. wonders may never cease to amaze.
