Road rage incidents

[BolshieBastard]

On the motorway this morning, doing 80 in lane 3 overtaking some slower moving traffic. Some nob in a white grand cherokee is then on my bumper flashing his lights, presumably wanting me to get out the way but just where to, I dont know.

I noticed there were no blue lights on his grill and when I'd passed the last vehicle, signalled and pulled into lane 2.

The nob then draws up alongside and swerves twice in a mock gesture at forcing me off the road.

TBH, I was a bit taken aback someone would try such a thing but **** me, Im not having that. So I let him pass then overtake and draw alongside him, stand on the horn and gesture for him to pull over if he wants to show how tough he is.

Lucky for him, he makes a violent swerve off the quickly approaching off slip road.

Honestly, I could have killed the fecker for pulling that stunt. Think Im going to start carrying a iron pipe in the car from now on.

[WTFH]

Did you get his number?


Some people (not me currently) have video cameras in their cars for such incidents.

Dash cams are the way to go, dad!

No I didnt really look at his plate because his action really took me by surprise.
Yep, I was looking at a BlackVue dash cam only yesterday but TBH again, not sure the camera would have picked the incident up even with its 140 degree viewing angle as he did the swervy thing alongside.

Had a few of those over the years. One fella escalated it by pointing a gun at me out of the window. I let him on his way after that.

Phoned the police and gave them the number plate. Registered to a completely different make of car.

What you need are a set of cameras. Front - 170 degree range and Rear - 120.

I carry one of those old fashined big heavy steering locks, for "added security".

He was probably just really angry with himself for driving a Cherokee.

As soon as someone flashes their lights aggressively at me I adjust my speed to be exactly that of the car to my left. I love a bit of sport.
