Road Rage - not my fault... I think!

You can also get apps for Android (and presumably other phone OSes) that do the same job if you have a suitable windscreen mount that allows the camera to poke through.

I know Strider590 used to regularly post videos from his camera showing examples of bad driving. They used to stir up quite a bit of debate on this forum.

I'm glad I'm not the only person here who gets annoyed by that. :mad:

I can only remember one post on here where somebody got mine right.

Maybe a clue in the username would help??

Some girls are tomboys, some boys are sissys. without offence:D:D

You know what I mean, you can't tell from a genderless internet identity.

Call yourself randy lill or sexy simon and you won't have the problem, :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

pacific, I hope you're not floating around in the outside lane of dual carriageways and motorways, because that's bad driving, and if someone does fly up behind you, you should move over.

I think I quite clearly implied that I slow down to match the inside car when some aggressive tw*t thinks they can force me to overtake even faster by hanging 6" off my bumper.

Don't let that get in the way of you being contrary though...

Which is why I've never bothered to pull anyone up over it.
The avatar might also be a clue though.

I usually think 15 or 16 and still living with their parents, so I guess same general gist.

And cyclonebri.. you probably want to head up into the valleys for that, though don't be surprised if some of them would also beat you in a fight.

Haha! Whatever...

Nasty, horrible, aggressive road users are the problem. I refuse to let them get me stressed and ruin my day. I treat road users who behave like that just like a toddler having a tantrum - stand back, let them blow it out, and have a good laugh.

People like this want to bully and harass innocent people, and I'll be damned if they'll do it to me. They make themselves look like right t*ts and I just sit back and enjoy the show.

You're allowing their drivng to influence yours for the worse. You are not supposed to match speeds with a car you were in the process of overtaking.
Just because they are being a !!!!!! tailgating you, doesn't mean you should be a !!!!!! too.

pacific - yes I did read your post, which stated that you're overtaking, and I agree that me saying floating could have meant on your own - sorry.
What I meant was that if you overtake someone, they're doing 59mph and you're doing 61mph, I was calling that floating, and if someone flies up behind you at a whopping 70, you should consider completing the overtake more quickly, or cancelling it and pulling in behind. Or maybe you didn't look behind you properly or just the speed of the traffic behind correctly.
And no, I'm not defending tailgating.
