When we drive over Europe we keep tabs in stupid drivers by make and nationality. For makes of car, from this trip, the top five are: 4. Merc 3. BMW [a rare drop from the top] 2=. VW 2=. Skoda 1. Audi You can convince your friends and family of your magical ability by leaving a gap of 5 or 6 meters between you and the car in front and as if by magic an elephant Audi with a sunshine at the wheel appears! By nation, we didn't even bother rating anyone else, Belgium needs to stop driving. Special mention goes to the screaming wuck fit [see the CCC] who came around a blind corner at 6 am yesterday, travelling the WRONG WAY IN A ONE WAY TUNNEL, doing around 100 km/h. I don't know why, but maybe 30 seconds prior to this I had changed lane in the empty tunnel. If I hadn't I, along with my family and the kunt in the other car, would be dead.

When I was riding motorcycles up the A3 into London every day during the rush hour I used to figure that if I could think of five stupid things a driver could do in any given situation, some stupid elephant would find a sixth and do it. :sigh:

Do not attempt driving in Italy. Just do not. It happened to me a fair number of times - to meet such a wuck fit (I'll borrow this BTW), not to be one. ADDED: BTW if you ever see a azure Fiat Panda RUN FOR YOUR LIFE. Nearly died three times with three different azure Fiat Panda. I think it's a divine mark.

I'll second that - I am convinced that they all think they are Giancarlo Fisichella and that everybody else will give way in deference to their supreme driving skill.

I luurrve the A3. Not. I used to bike in to the city that way too, I think around Robin Hood it would be safer just to get off the bike and walk down the middle of the outside lane.

I'll be honest, the Italians are rarely a problem. A bit slow but not really dangerous.

Oi, we are not all bad, but I do see your point, I myself get frustrated by the bad drivers who seem to be gaining in numbers.

I can understand that, I recall venturing into the centre lane in my humble hire car only to have a mucking great BMW materialise into the rear view mirror with flashing lights and screaming horn, I was only doing 130km, and no it was Italy not Germany. Poor little post van was not up to unlimited lanes!

Buy another extra[^] for your car. This should easily get anything from that list out of your way.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

There was a gig done on this few years back on one of the South African radio channels in the morning show. The outcome was that people with shiny sports cars and big SUVs tend to drive carelessly than someone in a middle class affordable car.
Also women seem to be driving a lot more aggressively than men. Especially those of a certain age driving the afore mentioned SUV's.

I just got honked this morning by someone for waiting for the car in front of me to turn right. There was only one lane so I could have either waited or drove over the guy in front. Beautiful hand gestures were sent towards me and I was not sure if I should run over the car in front of me or pull over on pavement for the one behind can save ever valuable 5 seconds. I choose to send back a grin further annoying person behind me.

Either that or they go 30 km/h on a 70 km/h road. In the middle or the left of the lane (we drive on the right so we surpass on the left). I'm usually being angrily surpassed by sport-cars (Alfa Romeo in particular) or SUV when I'm on the speed limit, or angrily surpassing id-10Ts who take the car only the Sunday and never pull over the second gear. Ah yes, living in the countryside I'll say nothing of the tractors who are forced to never go over 40 km/h (but it's a miracle if they reach 20) on the main roads...

In Germany, which takes us around 6 hours to cross, I set the cruise control to 150 km/h and I can often go upwards of half an hour without touching it. I take polite driving seriously, I know I'm not the fasted guy on the road, but I do know that I am steady and will keep going. The normal is to stop every two or three hours, alternating between comfort stops and fuel. I fill up just before Folkstone and that tank will go almost down to Frankfurt. A fill there and we're off until the Austrian border when we have to stop to get the ticket for the roads plus another fill up. Across Austria and into Hungary for the last fill of the trip and another motorway toll. On the way back we fill to the same strategy.

That's actually funny. Though we see a lot of bad drivers here, like in any other country, we actually consider ourselves not so bad drivers at all. I've been around the world and don't find any nation particularly good in driving. If one, I find myself not a bad driver. I keep my distance, obey traffic rules, drive defensively and politely. I've seen drivers far, far, far worse in most other European countries. My worst experience (didn't drive myself here luckily) was Peru, but very closely followed by Malaysia (did drive here) and Italy (did drive here as well). In Italy the best way to explain their driving skills is by saying the rules a nearly suggestions instead of actual rules. ;P

And for good reasons - the term "road maintenance" is Romulan for us. Also we have many highways with only 2 lanes, maximum 3 - the traffic is something unthinkable. The non highways are compositions of different asphalts, holes, bumps, curves, hills, hillocks, and whatever you may think...
