I got aggressively beeped at by a BMW driver at a mini roundabout on campus. I was turning right at the mini roundabout having priority over a car to my left (straight in this case as there isn’t a left exit) but the BMW came bolting down from my right expecting to have priority over me even though I was already in the mini roundabout. I really hate drivers like this…they think they have priority all the time and everyone is in their way…

You’ve gotta be nice to other road users by default of course but this was on campus so I have to wonder if it never occurred to them that maybe, just maybe, they could be upsetting a colleague or line manager or lecturer???

@drmambobob probably, if they considered anything beyond their entitlement to the road, they more likely assumed you were a student?

at least that’s my experience commuting by bicycle on uni campus when folks in higher end cars get impatient with cyclists.

@autumnjanai Oh I was driving today! So they were trying to exert their BMW driver status over me, a mere Ford C-Max driver…

@drmambobob one of my favourite jokes "you think you have a worthless job? Well, there are people in the BMW factory who's job it is to fit indicators to the vehicles."
