if you are at traffic lights do you always get away pretty smartish or does it depend on what car is next to you?
i can't stand it when other motorists, or idiots as i like to call them try to get ahead, fail miserably and then have to filter in. Not only is it dangerous, but you just look plain stupid!
I have to say I am rather guilty of pulling away and getting in front of rather slow moving vehicles. But as OG has mentioned, only if it is safe to do so.

I think there's a time and place for it. Rush hour? No. 3 AM and no traffic? Different story.
Before you do this make sure that there are no police cars behind you:embarrest:For me, it depends on either the other car (Not often do I act on this) or how the other car is driving. If the person seems impatient and is constantly inching forward during the red light, when it turns green, I leave them for dead.
I never break the law.Couple of minute in red light wont make any difference so better to follow the rules and be law obidient.
Moving away smartish from the green light isn't breaking the law. You could have a problem, however, if you smoke the tyres and wriggle the rear end (of the car) and are spotted by the law. You could be charged with driving carelessly.
They'd have to be on a hell of a mission to to apply careless driving penalty for a bit of wheelspin!!
I had it reduced to unreasonable acceleration. Haven't had a ticket since and no change in my driving style.
