Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Ok so every day we all see the usual sh1te that a lot of people here complain about, be it lane hoggers, blown lights, fog lights, dangerous driving, etc, but over the last 3 days I've witnessed some incredible, mind-blowing stuff

    1) Leaving my estate to fly over to the shops, as I turn onto the main road, a car coming in the opposite direction blows a bulb, right there and then. I flash the car and continue, safe in the knowledge that the driver isnt gonna do anything and probably has no idea why I flashed. About 5 minutes later I'm on my way back, there's yer man, pulled over with the hazards on, no more than 100ft past where I flashed, under the bonnet changing the bulb. :eek:

    2) Drove for a reasonably long distance on the M50 and the only people in the middle lane were using it to overtake, and then returning to the driving lane :eek:

    3) This morning was stuck at bus lane lights on Terenure road. Anyone from the area knows theyre a pain, but if you're not familiar, they're a set of lights to hold cars back at the end of the bus lane so the bus can merge easily, but they never work. Constantly red. Anyway, waiting at the lights and some bitch in a 206cc starts flashing, suggesting I just break the lights, like many people do, and tbh I was tempted. She's stuck to my arse, so I move forward about 2 feet, and she undertakes in the bus lane. She's then followed by 3 other cars, the last of which was a white mondeo with 'garda' written on the side :D A Garda hops out at and pulls all 3 cars.

    Ok so the last story isnt good driving, but when you meet assholes like that, its always nice when they dont intimidate you but instead end up getting pulled.

    I know this good spell wont last, but have you ever witnessed any normal/decent driving that made your jaw drop?
