    The thing that annoys me, is when you are behind someone and they are spending more time looking at their passenger than the road.
    Surely you can talk to the passenger without actually having to make eye contact, kerp your eyes on the road and you might not neatly crash into the car in front.
    This is also seen on tv, or film, where they can drive for 30 seconds witjput looking at the road but looking at and talking to their passenger

      Also the fact that they slow down when they are talking and then speed up again so you can’t just have your cruise control on and it’s so bad for fuel economy and makes me maaaaad. Always overtake people like that.

Then again he a a very flashy Lamborghini and a few million subscribers at the time so it may depend on the scale of reports.

    @jamescresswell1532 Před 3 lety +5

    Credit to Ethan - when my Celica had a similar problem, my dad and I had the door in bits and ended up shocking the electric motor to get the window back up. Drove the multiple hours to where I needed to be in the rain, and then, after parking, noticed, just behind the steering wheel and slightly low down, a big window locking button. The window struggled to wind up that last bit ever since... It also wasn't reliably waterproof. In my defense, somebody else had accidentally pressed the button, but still, we should've thought it was a simply fixed problem first!

    to be honest, the shepherd and flock roundabout feels absolutely massive when you're in it, like the houses have huge gardens, and there's road and carpark and pub and still tonnes of spare space on it, plus how you can go under the motorway and go on a walk through the farms. It feels massive
    But when you go round it, it only takes a few secs at 40mph

    I have a trike but it's not one of those nasty road going American ones. I've got a 1982 Honda ATC 110 off-road trike and I love it

    The proper response to "is X better than Y" is, "for what"?
    Is a bike better than a car? For what? Carrying passengers? No.
    Accelerating quickly? Yes.
    Is a van better than a car? For what?
    Carrying passengers? No.
    Carrying a sofa? Yes.

      Happens almost everyday on my commute. Honestly this is something that pissed me off so much. And it's not even like a 'boy-racer' who wants to have a go I just think it's someone who realises 'whoops, I'm driving too slowly, better speed up)

    “If only houses went up in appreciation as E30 M3s”. Think house prices between 1988 and 2020 gave boomers a very tidy return. My dad bought a normal London terraced house for £40k in 1988 and it’s worth >£900k now...

      Luke Woodside inflation in 1988 to 2020 does not account for the growth. £100 in 1988 is the equivalent of £231 today based on inflation only. Population growth, interest rates, a small island with limited space, housing stock availability, buy to let investors and speculation are all big factors in house price growth.

    about holding the hand at 12 o clock on the wheel. i am a courrier and driving a van in city all day , every work day. The thing is transfering your grip from the douchebag grip of the wheel at 12 o clock to a palming method when turning a lot. a van has power steering ,but still requires a lot of turning to get from lock to lock. i use it a lot in small roads / tight spaces like around flat buildings. i guess it can be a bit dangerous to lose grip of the wheel, but... has not happened to me.... yet, i guess.

    Totally agree re driving one handed like that usually accompanied by the drivers seat ridiculously reclined so much so that they look out at the B pillar.
    When looking at used cars, as soon as I see a drivers seat like that, it’s automatically onto the next one.
