Hey hey hey. The road is for cars, the path is for you chumps.
On this subject. I hate slow pedestrians who think that because the road was sort of clear when they stepped off the kerb means they have all the time in the world to **** about on the road while cars approach them. I've seen idiots stop to pick up what i can only assume is money, and people get 2/3rds of the way across and then decide to turn around and head back - must have forgotten something important.
The ones that annoy me most are the 'diagonalers' who instead of crossing the road at 90 degrees to the kerb via the shortest route (taking the shortest route seems sensible on an area likely to have high speed metal coming towards you) they try and shave nanoseconds off their obviously time critical journey by walking at an angle almost parallel to the path but still on the road, where the cars are.
GET OFF THE ROAD YOU TOSSERS.
I will try and drive as close to you as possible without hitting you. Don't like it? Use the path, use a designated crossing. Or die. Your choice.
