I just found that review (it might have been Glenn Butler, actually, another reviewer who reviews every car like its a Corolla) to be particularly stupid. Who the fuck whinges that a Z4 M Roadster is too fidgety, too sensitive to inputs, and requires total concentration to drive it?

That's a proper M car, in my books. Not something that weighs 1.5 tons, has electric leather seats, multi-zone climate control, so much sound deadening that you could probably gut a pig inside and not disturb the neighbours, and all this other shit.


Anyway, back on topic, I had to drive mum to work today. And dealing with peak hour traffic really gives me the shits. How is it that people who apparently drive every day not notice how traffic flows, and what the roads do?

I had people swerving to get out of well signposted turning lanes, failure to merge, not getting out of access lanes onto the freeway until the last possible moment (even though there was space to do so before), etc etc.

Then when I was going through the Bridge tolls, some stupid bint in a Falcon decides to muscle into my lane (which only had 2/3 of a carlength) to get into the e-Tag lane....completely ignoring the e-tag enabled lane right in front of her, that had no traffic in it.


You could cut down on most road rage by just getting rid of these cock knockers who don't know how to drive, and piss off the people who planned ahead to get into the lane they needed when there was space.
