Looking the wrong way
 

On the way in to work this afternoon I was filtering on the outside of solid, stationary traffic in Finchley, highly visible and audible.
I noticed a mother and her young child step into the road on my side about 15 meters ahead of me. Walking between the cars looking the other way at the oncomming traffic, not once looking in my direction. With a sound of the horn and some rapid braking in the p###ing rain, I pulled up just before wiping them out. And the response from mother infront of her child........Wait for it........."YALALALALALALALA F###ING YALALALALALALA" in a language fortunately not familiar to myself.:confused:

Shocked people at the bus stop and myslef then watched the woman literally drag her kid across the road whilst starring and shouting at me with total dissregard for her or her childs safety.:o :confused:
Should I not let idiots like that know that I'm comming, through fear of what abuse I might receive???

Honestly, God sends you to mow down a useless scank and you screech to a halt?! Thats the last time he'll be getting you to do favours for the gene pool...

Yeah, must be a new highway code given out by immigration.....

Page 1, paragraph 1

1.Step into oncomming traffic where possible.

2.Try to hit the traffic with yourself or a blunt object.

3.Abuse oncomming traffic as much as you can.

4.Failiure to observe points 1, 2 and 3 may result in extradition.
