Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

You're sitting in a queue of slow moving traffic, let's say approaching a lane closure on the motorway for example. You're quite rightly waiting your turn like everyone else when some TWAT whooshes down the outside. That's bad enough, he (or she ... usually he though) is obviously an arsehole but what REALLY grinds my gears are the real obsequious bellends who hold back and let them in.

Oh god yes! Every fucking dual carriageway near me has this happening right now. I always get over as soon as I see the sign saying my lane is closing, and then crawl along shouting obscene words at the fucking cockwellingtons who think they are Much Too Important to wait, thereby holding everyone up, including themselves. Then I have to drive an inch behind the person in front cos there is no fucking way I'm letting those bastards in.

*...howls at jeff and fleecy....* If you read the Highway Code, you're actually supposed to merge at the closure, not half a mile back and waste all that available lane. There are roadworks off the roundabout near my office and the queues are regularly caused by people who don't understand where they should merge. :-(

In Belgium they call it "ritsen verkeer" - merge at point of closure, taking it in turns, like a zip closing...
Still doesn't work - still end up with huge hold ups :-)
