    Anyone else have loads of near misses today? I have never seen such stupid pedestrians and wreckless driving ever!!!

    Backdrop: 3 lane road me in middle car other car in left lane and 3 corners in limerick(behind arthurs quay)

    1:)Car with female driver... came half way onto my lane every time she went around the bend , beeped her twice then she beeped then i sped past her on straight so she couldnt almost hit me again then she tore up the side went almost fully into my lane....me pushed into other lane at this stage held down the horn and feffin and blinding her out of it.

    2) turning left at traffic lights, motorbike skipping all the traffic on wrong side of the road i was turning left onto. slammed on the brakes beeped him out of it. He actually looked frightened it was so close. Must say i was shaking a bit

    3) Road with 3 lanes, 2 lanes full with traffic and im in free lane with filter light going left. loads of people randomly jumping out from the traffic filled lanes trying to get across the road. Do people actually want to die??

    1st of may....am i the only person that had such a crazy day of driving? Almost got caught by guards speeding aswell but the guard was aiming the other way...on the way back he had pulled someone over coming from the direction i had origionally been coming from.. LUCKY!

    You possibly had a seriously bad day.

    I drove 750km or so today and everything went fine except for one woman going around the roundbout 3 times in the outer orbital lane with no indicator.

    Like I said. I drive 100's of kms a day on my own with nobody to talk to unless the phone rings.

    At 5:30pm I collect "herself" from work and I comment about everybody on the roads. Its all pent up inside.

    Is that a new game of chicken - see how long can continue before hit by someone else?
