The younger drivers seem to do it quite alot. I was cut up on a tight roundabout by a young girl in a fiesta. further up the road, she did it twice more, nearly causing an accident.

I was speeding safely but got provoked and had to tailgate as a result of been violated. Road rage, I put it simply. At one point I thought of ramming her bumper slightly just to wake her senses up......

Where the arm of the law? Its snapping pics of good drivers going 6mph over the limit. Some drunk drivers don't get caught. Not by cameras anyway. ::)

well im alot more observent since ive been a biker, you tend to look out for 'hazards' alot earlier than you would normally, ive calmed down loads as i got into trouble with the law a few years back, i had my mrs and kids in the car, and some n0bhead in a escort cab (with pants tiger stripes) decided he was gonna get right up my bumper, un lucky for him there were traffic lights 100 yrd ahead which decided they were gonna turn to red, hmmm, got me baseball bat from me passenger footwell, got out and put the twots window though, i remeber seeing him and his mrs screaming in the car, i was shouting at him like a right fruit, then realised the lights were on green and had a queue of cars behind so i got in me car and shot off, got some serious earache from the mrs for doing it and some grief law wise but hey, i dont mind admitting i drive like a fruit but if any one dose it near me when i have my kids in the car(which when i do i always drive sensibly) i go mental. Just my piece.

Gaz ;D

I do agree with you. Could have been a different story if I had my family in the car. Behind bars would have been the subject of my story today. Cos won't sit or stand idle by and watch an idiot put the lives of my family in absolute danger..

I'm always observant when driving and I keep a sensible distance. I don't tailgate cos I'm not comfortable driving in that manner. On this occasion my rights were infringe upon and I reacted the way I did.

tailgating is about the only thing that pisses me off.. i do keep quite well back when driving, mostly for visibility down the road ahead..

2 things.. 1.. slowing down really pisses em off..  2.. most of us are driving quicker than average cars, so boot it when safe to.


it doesn't wind me up that much, but it does get really annoying if they're behind you with full beam on, that gets me really worked up.

Btw it?s a Y Reg. thingy with a big exhaust. Anyway she realised I was pissed off and tailgating so she put her foot down as if to say ?come and get me if you can you old banger?  I got into 4 gear, hit 4000rpm and was right behind her bumper she tried stepping up speed but I was still behind and she decided to make way and got into the inside lane. Still fuming with rage I stuck my fingers up at her as I went by.

I get that like once a week .. but not as close to crashing ...

Its always sum young blonde bimbo in a Furio/VTR or summet (Never a VTS) ... and they just .... ARGH ... i hate em.

Women cant take corners tho ... so they can never stay with ya ... ya could probably blitz a woman driving a VTR in a mk3 1.4 if the road had corners!

(No offence women on this site... u drive dubs ... so ya good drivers ... we're talking the girls who reply every sentence with "WHA?!?!?!?!" ... in that squeaky b!tching tone)
