Driver of White Van MX51 GKF from Manchester Old Road leading to Rochdale Road, blatant red light jumper - and I don t mean amber or just-gone-red - the opposing set of lights had changed to amber before he went through red.

This Manchester Evening News van driver must have been doing at least 50 down Rochdale Road as he sped up to my bumper. He then tailgated me down onto Old Market Street before turning onto Chapel Lane, all whislt using his mobile phone. Prat.

This 4x4 driver was so miffed that a smaller car managed to set off faster than then and stop at the next set of lights without hacing to driver over the line that they got incredibly confused, took the lane for turning right, then whilst their lane was still a red light, set off swerving into the lane they actually wanted which was green (independant lights). What an idiot. Made a complete fool of themselves, and on several other occasions proved their complete ignorance to the fact that cars have indicators for a good reason. What a fool.
