30-6 Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Feeling totally **** off today. Apart from all the virus things going on. Why do ? 1- they allow drivers to do a u turn around mini roundabouts. 2- weather forecasters get it so wrong. 3- stupid, pathetic people stand behind reporters doing a live broadcast with a phone in their hand waving to someone watching the TV, even though the report could be about something really serious.

Diver One Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Why do toilet doors open inwards? why not be dual hinged the number of times I wash my hands, touch door handle and it is wet from an unknown source! makes me gip....I have been known to wait in there until someone else comes in and I can jam the door. Long sleeve jumper on then I use it as a 'mitten' some people are just gross....never mind the corona virus issue! why do,I get called to repair stuff and the client is adamant they haven't fiddled when it is obvious they have! If they lie to me then hourly rate doubles...heir problem NOT mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam triple Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Can answer 1&3 1 the standard of driving on roads is **** these days because cameras take over from dedicated police units 3 , No respect these days all went out of the window when they stopped punishment in schools where as little Jonny got a whack , now little Jonny does what he wants with recourse for his actions ( imh only ,) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than doing a three point turn in the road these days I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butchdickason Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 I thought roundabouts large or small were to allow change of direction😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today i was cut up on a roundabout while on my bike, he pulled out straight in front of me, i let him no in no uncertain terms what i thought of him.

When you see your doc who is a big rugby lad who i get along with very well, and he says " bloody hell rob you look like poo" i'm not happy with your ecg and you tick all the boxes for an embolism your going to hospital now, then it makes you think lol. Thankfully false alarm, still feel crap but the alternative was a tad more severe lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is housed in a building with no windows, so they can't know they are wrong. 3 - This one has me baffled Edited March 14, 2020 by JohnfromUK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piebob Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Highway Code.......... 188Mini-roundabouts. Approach these in the same way as normal roundabouts. All vehicles MUST pass round the central markings except large vehicles which are physically incapable of doing so. Remember, there is less space to manoeuvre and less time to signal. Avoid making U-turns at mini-roundabouts. Beware of others doing this.Laws RTA 1988 sect 36 & TSRGD regs 10(1) & 16(1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30-6 Posted March 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 In answer to some of the above. Most doing u turns on mini roundabouts don't indicate. Not old old, but passed middle age. Not enough time on my hands, as I'm always helping others. I wish I was perfect like some on PW, I will start my lines now. I must not moan on PW I must not moan on PW I must not moan on PW etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
