I'm a what?!

I'm sure it'd depend on the day, if I was having a crap day I'd probably be more likely to go ballistic at someone

Touch wood though, I haven't yet had an accident. Knowing my luck it'll be the day after I buy my next car

IAM golden rule for driving:

Everyone else on the road is an idiot.

If you expect them to be so, and drive accordingly your chances of an accident are much reduced. But still, its hard to anticipate every moronic way of driving people come up with!

Dude - I'm an IAM driver and have been for several years. Plus numerous other advanced driving courses. You can't be ready for everything on the road - no matter how careful you are or how good a driver you are or think you are.

Yeah, I remember.. wasn't a criticism of your driving, just a general comment. Everyone on the road is an idiot, and I see it most days, one way or another. Some stuff whilst driving has scared the living daylights out of me for hours; there have been more than a few near misses I've been involved in that have been caused by idiots ignoring the rules of the road and doing whatever the hell they want to. Some of them I've been left thinking "I wish he'd actually hit me" so that some folks would realise just how **** they are behind the wheel; but then I realise they'd never accept the blame, just blame me instead.

TBH I just drive faster than everyone else, then they can't crash into me

We can all be a bit aggressive sometimes so I wouldn't worry about it. I thought you were a bit stressed this weekend too, so try to think nice calming thoughts.

At least the guy didn't do it deliberately which I find people do when Im driving a BM

Stressed? This weekend?! Hell no! I was in a great mood! :/

I only get pissed off with people who put my life in jeopardy.

Oh. ok. You were just joking round with me then? I got the distinct impression you were very irritable with me.

Will · 22-05-2007, 15:00

Probably cos you're a ****?

Nicely done on throwing the keys and not hitting him. Sounds like a right moron.

Will · 22-05-2007, 15:05

I'm genuinely scared of hitting anyone, a) for legal implications - i.e. being arrested b) injuries on the person c) being retaliated against and left in a bad way.
