My pet hates!!! What yours ???? Car related

Mickyboy · 2nd March 2017, 18:14

I'm sorry everybody but I have to moan about this as it is a pet hate of mine, I just hate it when I see an MOT certificate with an advisory item for under tray obscuring some components.

I mean they are factory fitted and when you buy new car you don't get an advisory,"oh this undertray might Obscure some components"

Yeah I get it that the MOT testers are only just covering their own, but it's my pet hate what is yours ?????

Drivers who keep on tapping their brake pedal for no reason. Brake lights on off all the time. They must be nervous drivers or something like it. The other one is not using indicators but don't get me started on that one!

Usually because they are driving far too close to the vehicle in front. I am sorely tempted to flash them every time their brake lights go on.

I think it should be an offence to sit at traffic lights (or if stationary even) to keep your foot on the brake pedal and not use the handbrake. Particularly annoying at night!

Drivers who are obviously using both both feet driving their autos. The brake lights being on whilst accelerating away is just ludicrous.

I agree it is annoying.
I know (of) someone who does that, their attitude is if it bothers others they should look away.
