I had to undertake this person doing 70mph in the outside lane. I reported him to the Police who told me I was in the wrong because I shouldn't be exceeding the speed limit and that I risk being issued with a section 59!

Driving too slow - report by updated 28/Jan/2001
Kia Shuma, Blue driven by Female
Seen at 10:45 am on 28-Jan-2001 on Grange Road Netley Hampshire
I was behind a woman in a Daewoo Nubira slowing down to turn right into the household waste centre. On the approach she let a Kia Shuma out. As the Nubira turned out of my way I put the pedal to the metal to regain speed and keep to the national speed limit as a black London taxi was coming up behind me quite quickly. As I did the bloody Kia infront was only pottering along at 30 without a care in the world. I had to hit the brakes hard to decelerate from 60 to 30. It was only doing half the speed limit posted for the road and it was p*ssing off myself and the guy in the London taxi behind. She was driving far too slowly for the road and there was no way either myself or the cabbie could overtake. Even tractors do 35-40 in a national speed limit but they have an excuse to be slow but what excuses car drivers? Ok fair enough do 40 or 45 if you are nervous but 30!? I really cannot stand drivers that do this it drives me potty. They have an empty car, no caravan or trailer, they aren't driving a coach, they aren't driving an HGV and they sit there doing 30 on a perfectly good road that is posted for 60 in a five speed car that is built to cope with traffic speed. People like this should not be on the road if their speed and judgement is this impaired. If you cannot drive your car at the speed limit or near the speed limit then you should seriously think about surrendering your entitlement to drive.

Appeared out of nowhere this morning flashing lights and tailgating me. I was in the outer lane on the motorway passing other vehicles at the time. I was shocked to discover a woman behind the wheel. As she passed me she blasted her horn and gave me the v sign, lovely!

This old biddy was driving like she was on fast and the furious. overtook me in a school zone pushing maybe 50mph, almost ran down a child trying to cross. Also scaring all the children by bouncing it off the red line, genuinely thought she was going to kill someone.

Kia Sportage, Black driven by Male
Seen at 09:15 am on 08-Dec-2001 on A334 Charles Watts Way Hedge End, Southampt Hampshire
I was leaving the M27 onto a slip road in heavy traffic so had to move into a small gap. The car behind (Kia) didn't like it and, as soon as we were on the slip road he over took my car and one car in front very dangerously. As we were reaching the end of the slip road onto a duel carriageway, he suddenly sped up and then pulled an emergency stop in the outside lane. I had to emergency stop to prevent from going into him. He then sat there for 10 seconds stopping traffic. Cars were beeping to get him going again. When he finally pulled off I overtook him while he was swearing and shouting at me. Drivers like that should have their licence taken away.

This guy is crazy...he was driving in a 50 zone at 30mph. When I eventually overtook him he went crazy, and was making extremely rude gestures to me out of his window and shouting like some mad man. He then chased me for a while, before slowing down again! The guy looked a bit like Tom Baker from the old Dr Who and was of unkemp appearance.

Parked on the pavement where there is a double yellow line, and loads of parking bays dotted around the road. Mounted the kerb 40-50 meters away and drove up it to park in the final position. No blue badges, even so, blue badge holders cannot park on a pavement (or road) if it causes obstruction.

Kia Picanto, Silver driven by Female
Seen at 05:45pm on 25-Nov-2009 on London Road B4110 Coventry West Midlands
Erratic lane change exiting a roundabout forced me to perform an emergency stop and sound horn. The white male passenger, 30 - 40, chuuby, bald wearing glasses leans his upper body out of the car to offer several extremely offensive gestures and taunts which continue for the next 2 miles. Avoid at all costs, seemed extremely unstable in demeanor.

Kia , Other driven by Unknown
Seen at 03:00pm on 17-Apr-2010 on A6 Bakewell - Buxton Derbyshire
Vehicle traveling on A6 between Bakewell and Buxton in Derbyshire, at speeds of 50 - 60 miles an hour whilst children from the back seat sat on the window ledges of the back doors, whith head and torsos outside of the vehicle. Children were then passing items like bottles of water between themselves over the roof of the car! I was riding a motorbike behind them and had one of the children let go of the bottle or the car lost control, I would be dead! This was wreakless driving in the extream and the driver was doing nothing to discourage the children. The incident went on for longer than 5 mins.

This guy was in the wrong lane at the roundabout in Newport going on to the A4042. He did in excess of 70mph in a 50 then 40 zone then tanked all the way down the A4042 doing in excess of 80mph. When he got to Jerusalem Lane in New Inn, Pontypool he tanked up there in excess of 50 in a 30 zone. I followed him to where he parked up in Ambryn Road - a porky thug in his 30s AND on his mobile. This is in Wales.

Kia , Blue driven by Male
Seen at 05:00pm on 14-Jun-2010 on Just Off The Causeway Staines Middlesex
Extremely agressive driver - just off Staines bridge, I stopped at a pedestrian crossing because the lights turned red, they then went to amber and because I didn't pull away fast enough for this idiot, this very aggressive man came up behind me flashing his lights and beeping his horn. He then persisted to tailgate me in a 40 limit, trying to overtake so I braked hard to try to get him to back off but he just beeped his horn continuously in a residential area and put his headlights on full beam behind me. An extremely upsetting situation and as a result tonight I am having anxiety attacks because of this. So you moron, I hope you read this and then maybe you won't think you are so clever that you can intimiate a female driver. Perhaps if you were driving around in a proper car instead of a "furniture store - Kia", then may be you would drive properly - PRATT!!!

Kia LX, Black driven by Unknown

I have no idea why the driver of this car decided he would overtake me (driving spot on the 60MPH speed limit which is normal for traffic on this road), but they did. It wouldn't have been so much of a problem if they didn't do it clearly with vehicles coming the other way, and the fact I had to brake (hard!) so they didn't have a head-on collision with a Mini Cooper. They clearly weren't going to make it, and could have killed the driver coming the other way had I not braked. It's no wonder this road is labelled a 'high risk route' if you're driving a Mini, you go over a hill, and you see someone hurtling towards you, on the wrong side of the road, well in excess of the speed limit.

Driving through the centre of Longsight town centre in the right hand lane when this driver speeds towards me in the left hand lane where there is a cylist next to me. Next thing -smash- straight into the back of me and speeds off on the other side of the road covering his face with his hands so I couldn't identify him. Tried to chase him but went down a 1 way street the wrong way. Was in hospital for a week and police can do nothing he gets away with it scot free.

Tearing around the car park behind Pizza hut and Domino's Pizza like a blue ass fly going round and round getting faster and more aggressive the more times she went round. She cut up a Ford KA on a give way and was being selfish to everyone storming around in a strop. She eventually left as she didn't find a space while I sat there smirking watching her blood boil over not finding a space.

Kia Cee'd, Silver driven by Female
Seen at 03:15 pm on 06-Nov-2001 on M27 E/M3 N interchange Romsey/Eastleigh Hampshire
I was driving a white Ford Transit T115 van (Not the Seat Leon) travelling on the M27 heading East towards the main M3 interchange just after Rownhams services. As I headed towards the M3 North I pulled into the next lane to overtake a lorry, a blonde woman driving a green plate private hire vehicle (Green plate = Eastleigh council, Plate number: 440) with no passengers on board, came racing up behind me at 90+ in the vans blind spots and did an undertake in the left lane. She passed the van at 90+ in the left and then cut between the tiny gap between me and the lorry taking a massive risk without slowing down or touching the brakes. I flashed her with the beams and received no apology gesture, I was just ignored. Because of her behaviour I have reported the Kia Cee'ds vehicle registration number to Eastleigh borough council along with the private hire plate number which is 440. I have phoned eastleigh council to report her and they are going to investigate.

Yet another total write-off who thinks 45 is an acceptable speed for a 60 mph road when conditions and the road easily allow speeds of 60.
