There's a guy at work with a Honda Jazz and because he drives so slowly I thought it would be a 1.2 or something but it's actually a 1.6 Drives like it's his first time on the road tbh.

THE most annoying thing on the road.
i'm with you on that but what annoys me more is when I drive properly on the motorway and stay in the left most lane, then as your approaching a wagon no-one will let you out into the middle lane and your forced to slow down. I think thats mostly why people get out in the middle and stay there.

same mark
i just stay in the inside lane and undertake them all
i especially love the ones who start flashing, then when i slow down to let them catch up, they suddenly do the ''i cannot see you if i look straight'' thing. makes me lol that one.

to pop up when needed to give people on the motorway a polite message telling them to use the inside lane

Its not just motorways. Until I started driving the van for work I never had spent multiple hours (some times 7am till gone 8pm) on the roads.
But FML, the people you come across and the things they do. Glad we don't have cameras inside the van because mine would be really bad

Honda jazz's are all 1.2 or 1.4 and both engine sizes perform exactly the same...
I have a Aa van that's limited to 68mph, it sucks when people sit in the middle lane or speed up when you attempt to overtake :-(

Gotta agree middle lane drivers do get on my tits. Another one is people who constantly brake on the motorway stop driving up the arse of the car in front and you wont need to brake every 5 seconds!

On my route to Verwood this weekend on the M3, im in the fast lane, over taking a car and lorry, then a corsa c containing 5 people (assuming its a 1.2) pull out in front of me trying to over take the lorry. This little corsa c coulnt over take it as it was up hill and it had no power, it was indicating to pull back in behind it so I was giving him/her some room.
Some knob is sitting right up my arse flashing me, wtf am I meant to do? Cant speed up, cant slow down, cant pull in.
In the end the corsa pulled in and i just floored it and went round everything then the knob who was behind me didnt even over take me =S
On the same drive, im cruising on the m25 (2 lane slipway) and some old man is just sitting up my arse, i pull in to the slip way leaving the m3 and he over takes me on chevrons, then goes and sits up the cars arse in front trying to 'push' them out the way and he done this to about 4 cars. They were all doing about 70 mph as well so not exactly slow. Why not just have a bit of patience?
I hate some drivers. Rant over.

So they are. The guy the Jazz owner lives with told me it was a 1.6 Don't know what the reg is so I can't check
