Vent at road rage drivers who tell you to get out your car and then drive off.....

Options
Had an incident this morning where some numpty came hammering up the inside in a queue of traffic and then shoved his way into my lane. (damn turbo lag defeated me and he managed to get in.....)

Anyway I called him a few choice words and he was staring at me in his rear view mirror so I mouthed a few more choice words at him. He then started pointing over for me to pull over and get out the car. He flew into the next bus stop and stopped so I followed him, pulled in and took off my seatbelt.

So did the big bad man drag me out my car and beat me to a pulp???? No, he stuck his car into gear and hammered away into the distance.

What a pu$$y. Way I see it, you threaten someone, damn well carry out your threat.

I know I will now probably be flamed for enticing road rage, however just wanted to let those who think they are tough behind the wheel, if you signal someone to pull over then be prepared for them to actually do what you ask.

    No, You were just well owned. You just lost the race to stop him getting in front of you, then he also managed to get you to stop, then also managed to leave you standing, and he rubbed your nose even further into the s***.

    That's your take on things.

    Mines is slightly different.

    There is always someone bigger and harder, your strategy will ensure you meet them sooner rather than later, just how important was that twelve feet or so ?

    Very important. Why should I have to sit and queue in the traffic whilst others think they can just barge in

    You give him the **** head from behind, he pulls in, you pass him again, and give him the sign as you take the unchallengeable position back at the front.

    You were both in the wrong, if this had lead to any sort of assault etc? You both would have ended up in serious trouble. It is road-rage pure and simple and courts take a hard line with this sort of crime.
