Bad driving: Old woman.

Driving and observation quiz:

An old woman in a Fiesta and a set of three-way traffic lights, she does two things wrong, you'll spot one easily, but what is the other?

In all though, there are three driver errors, so can you figure out error no. 3?

Answered:
1. The driver hogged the left side of the junction while turning right. Answered by http://www.youtube.com/user/delboy1978uk
2. Stopping; she'd already gone through the green light and there was no reason to hang around at the junction
3. Everybody else losing their cool and hitting their horns, me included, sorry

@joe546734 Do you know what a troll is?

[joe546734]

@Drivingyarns definition: 'In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, WITH THE PRIMARY INTENT OF PROVOKING OTHER USERS INTO A DESIRED EMOTIONAL RESPONSE.'

Or in other words, quoting my previous post: 'you'.

@joe546734 So how am I a troll - all I've done is make some videos...

Anyway, well done for knowing how to copy and paste from wiki

Just read more info where it suggested you were sorry for beeping the horn. Sorry to get at you about that at least you have reconized it was wrong. I disagree with reason 2. Even though she had gone through green light You still need to check at junctions and if the view is restricted you would need to slow down. I do agree she was hesitant. she was right to slow down to see but not to completely stop if the junction was open. e.g had a good view both sides.

Yes I was sorry for using my horn, though probably the drivers behind weren't. I will usually give myself a slap on the wrist for doing this.

You're right about the lady being right to approach with caution as you never know when someone may be taking a gamble, but of course she stopped completely and was probably unsure as what to do.

Thanks for watching

3) it's not a Fiesta. It's a Ford Fusion.

@Drivingyarns

Common sense??? when does that ever take a part on the roads these days?

People these days seem to be taught a series of steps and procedures to pass a driving test and sadly, once having passed it, so many never seem to progress beyond this.

1st Fault Steering and lane disipline the driver veered to the right hand side of road approaching traffic lights. 2nd fault position for turning Right. she should have positioned just left of centre. Confirming her signal with her road position. 3rd fault Hesitation emerging from junction. I could tell that by the fact you beeped your horn. Beeping the horn like that was illegal for you to do because you were stationery. and You should only use horn to warn of your presence. Not to bully.
