    It's not just Bentley drivers,many other drivers of many other car makes have served their Nob apprenticeship and are fully fledged members.
    And surprisingly enough there's one or two Nobhead motorcyclists about too,unfortunately

      Please don’t tarnish every hgv driver with the same brush. When I’m travelling at 50mph (the speed limit for hgv’s) on an A road some car, van drivers are that impatient to get past, their the ones who cause havoc. Lost count of how many drivers lives I’ve saved by braking to let them past before they have a head on crash. Just saying.

    Many many years ago I learnt a whole series of lessons from a guy in a Porche.
    I was behind coming off a roundabout, as I was on a newish at the time FZR1000 I pulled out to pass. He lurched out just as I started passing to pass the sierra in front of him. Being a fairly wide road I dodged right but carried on passing him. Being somewhat distracted neither of us spotted the speed trap at the next roundabout. They pulled us both, but decided they only wanted a word with the Porche driver. I escaped scot free from two bad situations that day, learning to pay much more attention to what is happening around me in ALL directions.

      Sure, it's the mindset of the driver. l was followed by a guy in an Aston Martin a couple of days ago. he followed at a respectful distance, wasn't driving like a Boy Racer...He didn't feel the need to prove his car accelerated like 'Shyte off a Hot Shiny Shovel' or had a top speed of 190 MPH....50 MPH more than my Bike by the way..!!

    Whilst we are seeing a car driver act like a nob head, I am not saying that the rider was one but at 2.16 we are about to overtake a lorry and there was visibly a nearside junction warning sign some 150 yards before a junction. The biker continued to overtake and passed the lorry and the junction. If there had been a driver waiting to come out from that junction the biker would have been invisible being behind and or to the offside of that lorry and there could have been an accident. Just my observations.

    • @Dereksol
      @Dereksol  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Use your observation skills to see what the rider saw before making the overtake.
      Looking past the lorry on the nearside there is a clear line of sight across two possible hazards.
      There are no vehicles or people near the lefthand intersection or near the lay-by.
      After that the lorry was overtaken very wide to give maximum line of sight for the rider.

    Most of the knobs drive BMWs so easy to identify. Bentleys, Range Rovers and Porsche SUV drivers are also in that category. Another stereotype is the mum on on the school run with screaming kids in the back.
    Driving standards have dropped since covid lockdowns.

    • @James-gf9jl
      @James-gf9jl หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I don't believe it's marque specific. More of a market sector which is nob-heavy. Mid-range "satus" saloons/SUVs with a cheap personlised reg, which means nothing to anybody except the owner.
