People driving with earphones in/on - especially the ones who think you should drive with the big noise cancelling ones.

Should be an instant permanent ban.

FFS I have seen the odd driver wearing buds which I assumed were to take call on their phone but I have never seen anyone wearing the big cans. You're right though they should be took off the road for being stupid.

People who use the Applegreen Stations to bypass traffic.

I wonder if some sort of speed ramps or forcing them to make a detour would slow them down enough that it wouldn't be worth their while.

I see them do it all the time on my way in from Blaris to Belfast....they don't even make much ground after it all.  It's a c*&%s trick.

I used to do it at sprucefield

"Clogher Valley SDLP Councillor Sharon McAleer has welcomed the decision of Transport NI to upgrade pavements in Ballygawley which will serve to benefit a young wheelchair user in the area."

Americans wouldn't know WTF you were talking about if you used the word "pavement". To them, "pavement" is the road surface.

It's a sidewalk over here.

[illdecide]

A pavement is a term used for a road, foot way or any other hard standing structure. The correct term is footway or footpath, it's actually quite funny as I had this conversation in work a few days ago where the Principal Engineer says "who the hell calls a footway a pavement".

[Hardy]

Who the hell ever called a pavement or footpath a 'footway'?

[Tony Baloney]

Who the hell ever called a pavement or footpath a 'footway'?

Apart from a Highways Engineer, nobody.
