In Asda car parks.
I always park slap bang in front of Asda's doors, so the nice man in the foyer can watch my bike. Today i did the usual. Got back on Dave and turned round, waited for the traffic to pass, rode to zebra crossing, let lady walk across it. Then from nowhere without warning, 3 spots up from the zebra, a stupid estate shoots out in reverse from its spot...I mean do these people not look...i was only riding at 2 miles an hour in the first place, but I managed to stop just shy of his passenger doors. Locking my wheels and nearly falling off,...he shot straight back in with not so much of a apologetic wave. I gave him the knoob head, to$$$er, w&anker signal, and tried getting outta there in one piece, only for it to happen again round the corner. Think I should have stayed at home, this made me nervous all day, more than the bloody deer did. Cars, I'm sooooooo glad i can't drive, cause I feel I could use one to go ramming idiots off the road with

Fit a super loud horn and I have mine connected to the alarm system trembler so it goes off if you move or touch the bike plus it makes car drivers take notice when adding a bit of verbal

Yeah.. hate those knobbers. Almost as bad as the old grannies that haven't worked out that theres a connection with what they do to the spinny thing in front of them and the peddles, to how the car moves.. I foolishly let one of those out as i was trundling through tesco car park, **** me, I had my mouth open in shock watching her reverse out and fly off!

he might not have seen you through his windows, i've noticed some drivers have problems seeing beyond them, i'd suggest putting your hand through his window, then give any hand signal you want, he might notice then...

It's because the (Wank*r Dickhe*d's) Car driver's can't reverse, sorry yes they can they just can't be bothered reversing into the parking spot which is a great deal easier than driving in usually..I hate this with a vengence there is no need for it it's pure ignorance and lazyness.Also i have never heared of a child being run over by IT'S own parent driving forward but plenty reversing of there own driveway.When will they learn ,never i expect....

I have a kill switch on my bike but it doesn't work. When I see a to$$er I flick the switch but they still live and my bike cuts out. I must return it to the dealers for attention.
