I don\u2019t know why, but in the last few days I have had dozens of complete tossers doing the most stupid things around me and my pupils.\"Silver<\/p>\n

I already wrote about the silver Toyota (reg. SJI 5262) which had parked in the full knowledge that they were causing a major blockage outside the Methodist Church on Rivergreen in Clifton. I noticed today that No Waiting signs have been fixed to the fence now, so it will be interesting to see which idiots ignore those, or if they bring their wire cutters to remove them (having already stolen the cones).\"Black<\/p>\n

Then there was the black Mercedes, reg. X922 DCU, which dangerously overtook, then undertook, and then cut another car up on Manvers Street today. The driver looked like a potato with a walnut stapled to it. If the police are looking in, they might want to pull this prat over and do a check on his window tints – the front ones look illegal.\"Bronze<\/p>\n

There was also the bronze Honda Civic, reg. ET57 TBO, driven by an Indian woman which pulled out extremely dangerously at the Dunkirk roundabout and headed down University Boulevard. My pupil was almost in front of her when she decided to go.\"Black<\/p>\n

Next, there was the black Renault Clio, reg. FH63 EFP, which cut us up dangerously at the Wheatcroft roundabout.\"Red<\/p>\n

Similarly, a red Fiesta, reg. FJ10 TDZ, cut us up even more dangerously on Radcliffe Road in West Bridgford.\"Blue<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s not forget the blue Mazda 3, reg. ND54 UWH, which overtook at speed – on a bend – on Pennyfoot Street in the City Centre.\"Red<\/p>\n

And then there was the red Ford Ka, drive by a zit face, reg. YF55 NLC, which overtook at high speed near a crossing and over speed bumps in Clifton. Definitely one for the police to keep an eye out for.\"Blue<\/p>\n

But probably the best one has to be the woman in the blue Meriva, reg. FP53 TYG. We were driving past the top shops in Clifton, where they have installed the high-kerb tram islands, and where the lanes are only wide enough for one car (or a tram), and this stupid bitch stopped – right in the middle of the road – to let one of her offspring out. The kid then ran across the road to the shops right in front of us. The woman – probably the unfit mother (based on observation of what I saw) of the child in question – then attempted to stop in the bus bay, thought better of it, then did a dangerous U-turn at the T-junction where the roundabout used to be. Her indicators were going left and right like disco lights. It\u2019s dangerous enough just turning left or right – but a U-turn? Rather than the police, I\u2019d suggest that the Social Services should be looking into this one.<\/p>\n

All this occurred in the last two days. A few others got lucky, in that I couldn\u2019t remember what they\u2019d done when I came to look at my hastily scribbled notes. Perhaps next time, eh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
