I was stopped behind a Honda Civic at lights on the way to work this morning. The Honda would have been circa 2008 or 2009 based on the number plate - a NSW black and white “BZ….” It looked to be in fair condition with a few large dents and scratches.
While waiting for the lights to change, the Honda driver twists his body to the right, leans backwards slightly across the centre console and then starts pounding the ceiling just behind the driver’s seat with the side of his clenched fist. After doing this for about 10 seconds, he resumes the normal driving position just as the light changes and drives away. I have no idea why.

I seen people shave, eat their breakfast with a spoon, do the makeup, sing and dance (no drop ya pantz) make their coffee.
Its amazing what people do next to a bus/coach full of people as if they can't see in so the cattle (opps passengers) can't see out. What amazes more is how much cr*p people have in their cars. Terry |

It’s funny that you mentioned St Peter’s. This occurred at the corner of Gardeners Rd and O’Riordan St, less than 1km from St Peter’s. And the other driver turned left and headed in that direction.

I watch some people try to drive. They don't do a good job of it

Driving the tilt tray one day and the guy next to me at the lights was trying to pull the end off it, a quick toot of the horn put a end to that

Seen plenty of that, plus skirts doing the lady version. There is a time and a place, stop start peak hour traffic is neither.

I didn’t get the idiom at first, and thought you meant he was trying to damage the cradle at rear of your tray.

So many people in stop go traffic, eyes down on their phones, must be a condition.
No wonder there’s so many traffic cameras now, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel. |
