Thumbs down Be on the lookout!

There is a ford focus roaming the streets of Kent being a complete a** hole. So here we are, my mate and I crusing at the speed limit (30) when this ford decides to take a closer look at my mate's rear lights, we move to the left hand lane and so did he, looks like he really like this 125, we moved back to the right hand lane allowing him to undertake, he moves into the right hand lane with us. So I decided to play his game, I move to the left hand lane and drive along side him, he then proceeded to become a biker and "filter" between the two of us, hitting my mate's arm with his wing mirror. I wanted to have a little chat with him (after giving him the finger) he then decided to have the "poshest" accent ever and said, and I quote "Oi fam, are you mad blud, blocking me in like that, you gunna get shanked." I replied "do you know what the legal distance between two vehicles." he quickly shut up and then told me to go have sex with a man. I gave him the general reply of "f**k off and drove off.
People these days aye?

I know it's difficult sometimes to not get drawn in, but that tosser has a ton of murder weapon under his right foot - watch how you go.

Got to agree with the Sid of Squid there. Stretchie and I were chased by a muscle car being very dangerous to us a few years back on the Bristol ring road. We started to head towards the local police station, but unfortunately had to stop at lights. Driver got confrontational and Stretchie just said sorry, tried to ignore him and talk him down. I have no doubt that if Stretchie had been confrontational back, he would have got out of the car and hit him or worse, used his car to hurt us.

It isn't common, but sometimes people snap and it is just never worth it.

Better to spend the rest of the day thinking of all the amazing one liners you could have used on him, but be alive, than be a smart alec or stick up for yourself at the time and be a victim of road rage. Especially if you are riding with others as others could then get hurt because of your desire to have your say.

If someone is really driving that dangerously, call the non emergency police line and report it, remembering the vehicle reg if you can.
