Road closed ? No just move the Cones

[Donnywolf]

My road has been closed for 36 hours and has signs at both ends. Despite that the "goons" have been ignoring those signs (2 each way) and chosen to believe the road is open

They have been turning round in their droves all day after finding surprise surprise there are barriers all across the road and .... its .... well .... CLOSED

Now they have a new way past ... move the Cones and drive on the Path and if Mrs DW and dog are on path .... hey no matter they will scatter

AND these are the same people that will stop using their Mobiles now the "punishment" has become more severe ? Dont make me laugh

I had a muppet the other night at a set of temporary lights  on red I was 4th back car slowed down behind me I thought he'd hanging back a bit  next thing foot down and he pulls out belts past the four of us through the red light

Our road was closed for 4 weeks recently, we had such a fun time watching everyone who ignored the signs turning round. Appears education in Doncaster is not what it was....

Edit - people started strategically parking their cars to stop the idiots driving over the pavements like they did for the first couple of days.

Unfortunately this is the society we live in
Somewhere there has to be an argument for compulsory sterilisation

I'd compulsorily terminate the pillock who shot past me and a Range Rover half up the kerb while we were stopped at red lights to drove straight through. Sadly, the oncoming bus was about 5 seconds too late. I suppose if he had someone dying in his car I'd accept it, but he didn't. It was a kid in a little boy racer car with a loud exhaust.

Just driven to town and leaving Thorne I was going up towards the M180 following a Car and a Horsebox. Its double white lines all the way as its a blind hill

I looked in wing mirror and a Car came from the bottom of the hill in the wrong lane and overtook a Van - me - and the car and Horsebox. ANY vehicle coming from Hatfield would have had no chance

[BobG]

Overtaking uphill is an absolute cert to end in tragedy sooner or later. Keep doing that and your days really are numbered. The number of idiots I see doing it though just goes to show how thick a lot of people must be. I drive fast, but I don't drive suicidal...

Were people parking on the pavement?

[roversdude]

Unbelievable - I stopped as I had pull out to pass a line of cars parked on left hand side, and I had seen a car heading towards me. Numpty behind me pulled round me only to encounter the car I had stopped for. There was now a bus and more cars behind approaching car so Mrs Numpty had to back up cursing and muttering. As more cars had gathered behind me she ended up much further back but had succeeded in adding a good 5 minutes to everyone's journey

[Donnywolf]

Remember an incident in Thorne a couple of years back where Swans and Cygnets were walking in the road from a Pond near Railway Stn ... to a Pond 100 yards away

First Car stopped to let them amble through the bridge and a few more Cars queued behind. However nothing was coming into Thorne in the opposite direction so (you have guessed) Billy the Boy racer arrives on scene as maybe 10th Car and wonders (probably) why the "cretins" in front are stopped. He drops a gear and zooms past the lot and swerves in at the front of the queue knocking down and killing every one of the Swans that the first man had so lovingly slowed down to help

Strategically placed near trees...

Hmm, if they were parked with wheels on the path/or kerb, this is also an offence.

I find whenever I pull in to let an emergency vehcile pass, those behind me never let me pull back out into the traffic.

Fortunately I have a car now that people tend to move out of the way for.

About a fortnight ago I had to pull out onto the roundabout or else I'd trap the ambulance in and some thick Kitson was absolutely livid about it.

[DaveDRFC]

The other day I was coming from the Dome back out onto Bawtry Road. Lights were on green but there was an ambulance with the siren blaring coming down Bawtry Road so I stopped to let it past, as you do. Some t**t behind me started beeping his horn because I was stopped, then when we ended up hitting the next set of lights on red he just sat there behind me furiously shaking his head.

Some people just shouldn't be let outside.

Quite right !

I do think people have now become daft about moving over as well though and over egg both the space they are giving and the swerve (cant spell man hoover at this time) they make to achieve that space

[roversdude]

Bridge at Sprotbrough is great, don't know how wide some people think their cars are
If it was up to me I'd put traffic lights on bridge just to deter people taking short cut through Village. Also can't believe how many drivers of heavy vehicles can't read, signage everywhere stating axle weight but still gets ignored.
Whilst I'm ranting..... New 20mph stretch outside my sons school just gets totally ignored grrrrrrrrrrrd

Taxi drivers are the worst.

Not sure how a certain Micks Mini Cab driver thought it was acceptable to do 55 down Sprotbrough Road. Was it you, Filo?

Nope, I would n't be going that slow 😝

I tend not to use Micks any more, ever since they tried ripping me off

Wrong, never worked for Micks

Would you like to try and make another "fact" up?
