Thursday musta been Road Rage Day. Had some trickster in his VN swap lanes in front and beside me without warning, causing me to brake and warn him with a quick blip of the horn (approved warning device) p rick then jammed on his brakes possibly hoping for an insurance write off of his piece of poo car. Not for this little black duck. I missed him, but got his number, gonna sort that one out the right way.

Earlier on I heard of road rage that morning. Woman (irate) seen at traffic lights, got out, shouted abuse at a van driver, ripped his wiper off and threw it to the ground, kicked his door. She then got back in for the green lights, roared off, got in front of van driver jamming on brakes causing van man to brake and skid out her way. She then drove off.

Did he forget flowers the day before ?

They are welcome to brake for no reason in front of me. Its illegal, and I would love to test the bullbar on some people.

and when it all comes down to the insurance companys...
always seems to be failure to allow enough stopping distance and the car behind has to pay
