Mopeds that weave their way in front of you at the traffic lights, then sit in the middle of the road at their top speed of 28mph when you set off.
That and cyclists who think they're on foot. BASTARDS!

People who use "their" when "they're" would be far more correct.

Mopeds that weave they're way in front of you at the traffic lights
