So today I saw some pretty stupid driving here in the big apple…
Number one was a driver with an award stuck on his truck for ‘Champion driver’ who couldn’t back into a bay so he blocked the yard off in Dominos, soon after this came a guy with a 30 foot straight truck, who also couldn’t reverse and this was a straight truck FFS, he was told to park it and the reversed into the side of the previous truck
Driving south on the Major Degan expressway, which is an interstate route I meet a lady reversing towards me, I slowly pull up behind her and sound the horn and she waves me by but I refuse to pull into the middle lane filled with fast moving traffic and sound the horn again but she just sits there with her reversing lights on, so stalemate… I get out and tell her she can’t just reverse the wrong way along an interstate but she insists she has missed her exit and wants to go back. I refuse and tell her that if she doesn’t move I will call the cops, after reconsidering the situation she pulls onto the shoulder
You’ve been within 300 miles of NYC and thats all that happened to you today?!
Christ that’s nowt Pat I get that and more going less than half mile out of the house
Yep, sounds like California today!
On my way home in the car I’m in the right side of 2 turn lanes. The light goes green and the SUV in the left lane cuts right across me out of the turn. Not wanting to damage my nice newish car I hit the brakes and the horn.
When I get to the next light alongside him I get a mouthful of abuse from a (likely illegal) elderly driver eating a banana with one hand and giving me the finger with the other and telling me that I need to look where I am going and should learn to drive!

Sounds like a normal day for you Pat.
Have missed a good Pat rant n ■■■■■
Sorry but I really loose patience with these ■■■■■■ double parking for no reason, even when next to an actual space, but it was the actual reversing down a major highway that got to me.
