    Look OH & I get on well - we do differ on somethings & agree to differ. I respect his view & if I had been driving I would have reported it, would have pulled into the Police Station & reported it yesterday. But I wasn't.

    I wish I hadn't posted now.
  • I dont think its worth reporting not because its not serious it is and scary but nothing will be done.
    I apprieciate how you feel as I have been a involved in a road rage incident a few years ago which was not my fault but another car in front caused me to break hard, the driver behind me nearly went into me, when we stopped in traffic this man tried to get into the car and when he couldnt open the doors he tried to smash my drivers door window, screaming and swearing. This was at lunchtime, it terrified me, no one came to help, (I was only in my early twenties, single driver, female).

    You feel something should be done and feel fustrated but nothing will be done and that will leave you feeling even more fustrated, just be more aware in future and grateful that nothing more serious happened.

    That's dreadful what happened to you Pineapple.

    Thing is these things come out of the blue & you can't go about thinking that everyone is a physco, but they are about, but thankfully not in hordes here - yet.

    A few years back we were in Inverness & this complete idiot in a very unusual vehicle did something unbelievable whilst driving through the middle of town. He was very vocal & shouted some vicious abuse - we had done nothing wrong - honest. We thought he must of been drunk. It was a wonder that he didn't knock someone over.
    .

    funny how these things keep happening to you, isn't it? Maybe your driving ain't up to scratch ;-)

    Nasty - person above!

    Keeps happening to us - I think not. But there gain you being such a wind up person - you probably could have been one of them!

    In thirty years of driving - OH 40 years, I think to meet two idiots is pretty good going.

    I don't know - sorry for wasting your time.
    This board is for people to vent their feelings so do not be sorry, I would report them but it's probably a waste of time if you read my post about a member of Asda's staff whom Im sure keyed my car - I could have reported it to the police but it would be a complete waste of time (no evidence) its all a reflection of todays life but don't despair things have a way of catching up with these people I do believe what goes around comes around, meanwhile a good rant or moan will help get it out of your system :j
    Theres only two rules to remember
    1) Im always right
    2) See rule 1
