Drive-By Shouting at Westwood

The Theroid-Mobile pulled out of Smyth’s car park, acknowledging oncoming driver signalling to turn left into the Smyth’s car park.  What Thanet Theroid hadn’t taken into consideration was that said driver was a raving, idiotic, incompetent loser.  Thanet Theroid should have been psychic and realised that the loser driver hadn’t cancelled indicator after exiting Sainsbury’s car park. Of course Thanet Theroid can read minds, why could Thanet Theroid not read this mind?  Obviously too much of a loser to register on the Theroid-Telepathometer.

Having joined the main throng of Thanetian motorists, Thanet Theroid was most surprised to be immediately tailgated by the Loser-Mobile. Theroid-Mobile held back at the lead up to the Homebase/Debenhams/ex-Pearce Signs roundabout, having seen Loser-Mobile move into the left hand lane, which was not surprising as it was STILL signalling to turn left.

Loser-Mobile had already lowered driver side window to shout obscenities, not realising that the Theroid-Mobile’s passenger side window was lowered in pre-emption.  Cue much foul shouting from Loser-Mobile, and much silenced by Thanet-Theroid’s abrupt (albeit smug) rendition of the truth.  Loser-Mobile instantaneously screamed a disingenuous apology: “I’M SORRY!” (delivered at the decibel level of a rock-concert), with-wound, turtle-neck like, behind raised glass and sped off into the mythological Westwood Gridlock at great velocity.

  1. There are some awful drivers around. But...you should never assume that people are actually going to do what they indicate - always wait until they are starting their move before you pull out in front of them. It's not a case of mind-reading, more a case of reading the road.

    Enjoying your new blog - keep it up!

  2. TT agrees; some drivers are awful.

    The loser-mobile was already on the move, past the Sainsbury's roundabout (indicating to turn into Smyth's) and there was a long gap otherwise Thanet-Theroid Mobile would've remained watchful!

    Good to hear that the blog is being read with interest.
