How bad can 9 miles be?

I commute a short distance to work every day - approximately 9 miles. In that time, I appear to witness an inordinate amount of c***ish behaviour. This blog is my outlet. Let me know your own stories, in the comments section!

CCC Event @ November 19, 2014 at 01:28PM

Lorna asked me this morning if I'd had any's on the way to work - I didn't, but I managed to find a couple on my lunchtime walk. Outside my office is a keep clear sign in the road, which has featured in before. As I left the office, there was a lady in a BMW convertible parked on top of it, obviously. On the way back, it was clear, so I thought I would take a picture of it, perhaps as an instructable for other BMW drivers, to educate them as to the correct behaviour on observing one of these signs. However, at this point, another car approached, so I slowed to see if he was able to negotiate the sign correctly.. once he saw me looking at him, he decided to park only on the "clear" part of the sign, so only blocking half the road. I had a little laugh to myself and walked off, at which point, he wound down his window to ask me " what's your f***king problem ". I told him that I was fine, thanks for asking, but that didn't seem to placate him... " why did you look at my car, and then start laughing" I decided at this point, that if he didn't know, then I wasn't going to tell him, so I let him carry on - he didn't seem to see the problem " I saw the sign, I stopped" he said, whilst still parked over 5 4ft high white painted letters saying "clear". Sometimes I think there is no hope for the world.
