School run driver's

Why is it that those people that are part of the school run brigade drive like total idiots. Maybe their driving is bad all the time, just made worse by the thought of having to get the kid(s) to school, or by the sheer volume of similar idiots on the road. Don't know what it is but they either drive really slowly, or really fast - nothing in-between! And the road/weather conditions make no difference to the speed! Add to this the rudeness and lack of consideration for any other road user's, with the way they drive, pull out of junctions / roundabout's and then park by the school. Why?

channel chaos!

The French are at it again, causing chaos just to try and get their own way. They French fishermen have decided to blockade their channel ports, i.e. Calais, Boulogne and more. This is over their fishing quota for Cod. Many other fishing nation's are subject to the quota's as well, but do you see them blockading ports? NO. They just get on with it. This protest is causing traffic chaos in the UK and mainland Europe, and some UK firms have estimated the cost at £1 Million every day... just what it needed in the current economic crisis, more lost revenue which could lead to more job losses, and more firms going bankrupt. Good old French! Always thinking of no-one but themselves!
