Was driving around town this morning and saw something that frustrates me:

A learner driver in a driving school car (so well marked), was being tailgated by a taxi. It was a straight road, through a fairly busy street with parked cars on the left and in the centre parking bays as well. Learner was being cautious in these conditions, which is understandable. Taxi was just not interested in going 'slowly' and sat less than a car length behind them (at something like 40kmh). FFS, we've all been leaner drivers before, respect their level of experience and give them some space. It won't make any difference to the time of your trip

The other one that frustrates me is right turning from a turning lane in a road with a median strip. To correctly turn at one of these, it takes three inputs into the steering wheel: the first is to turn right into the turning lane, the second is to turn left to again be parallel to the gutter, and the third is to turn right to exit the road. It is not simply one turn of the steering wheel to the right and take the corner as one consistent arc from the right hand (non-turning) lane! The idea of the turning lane being cut into the median strip is to allow you to slow before your turn without holding up traffic in the right lane. By making one turn only, you delay the traffic behind you in the right-hand lane
