thank god for that I thought my car was invisible today seeing as I got cut up about 7 times and pulled out on about 5 times.

how some people are still on the road is amazing
 
If you have a hands free mobil phone, its great to call the police and tell them that you have just seen a drunk driver......

I know the feeling as well. Anyone daft enough to pull out in front of 2 1/2 ton of 4x4 does not belong on the road.

I have the same problem as i drive a lot in my company car. Its funny when im driving my Dually Dodge Ram though. I dont slow down, you should see the expressions on their faces as the panic to get out of the way haha. Teaches them a lesson i can tell you.

I know how you feel, an idiot pulled out on me, but God was on my side, because the loony was being followed by a marked police car, how he never saw the police car behind him I'll never know, who promptly pulled him over, it felt so good.

funnily enough i drove right in front of someone at about 5pm......now before you all start slagging me off, the pr*ck had no lights on in the dark and raining heavily.i only heard him as he screeched and swerved behind me just missing my back end, he then proceeds to get out and start ranting and raving at me till i politely grabbed hold of him turned him round to face his car and tell him in no uncertain terms what i thought of him for driving in the wet and dark with no lights, he then ran back to his car without even a sorry and then drove off
 
Well i can see a grey ford ... and i'd be able to see that any time of the day even with my crap eyesight.

Some people don't deserve their licence, or at least need to take a test again in some cases.

I drive a Volvo P.O.S. at the mo ... worth about 50 quid.

People seem to get a reality check when i point out that their front wing is worth more than my car :) :)

I'll be driving like a pussy when i take possesion of my new jag though i'll tell ya :)
 
Best piece of road advice I have ever had was given to me by my bike instructor. "half the people on the roads can't see you, the other dick heads are actively trying to kill you". I've believed him ever since.
 
The worst accident I ever had was in a grey car. They blend in a bit. To this day, although my car is not grey, I drive with headlights on. In aviation we talk about 'see and be seen'. You can't fit strobes and powerful landing lights to your car however :busted_cop:
 
I hate those kind of people. I have put plenty of time, money and effort into my car. Don't need some idiot ruining it. Shocking Road Rage Attack Caught on Dashcam | Facebook Watch this video and see how bad it can get here. This was 100m from my house. I have also had an angry driver punch my mate in the face. Really stupid actions by stupid people. Hope all are safe on the roads.

Cheers

if it was nt so scary it would be laughable , I had a funny encounter with road rage in the summer, I came out of my road to sit for about a couple of minuets behind this driver at the roundabout I sat there thinking why hasn't he moved there was no traffic to stop him going so I gave him a little toot on the horn he got out of his car with a blood red face I opened my window and said is there a problem he very angrily told me that blowing my horn was against the law I said maybe mate but your just sitting there for no reason stopping us from going anywhere he said so what I don't care it then struck me that he was being very angry for no reason so I told him that I may of give him a little toot but what he has just done was very much worse , he looked dumbfounded and said im not in the wrong you are so I calmy got out of my car and told him he had just used road rage which can carry a prison sentence and I have witnesses to prove it and very quietly but forcibly told him to move his bleeping car or else.

you know he stood there looking so ashamed that all he could do was walk back to his car and drive off.

made my day lol

In Denmark it a law. You have to have daytime lights on. Most cars are fixed so they come on with the ignition, older cars; well either you remember to turn them on, or pay the fine. Most are kind enough to flash you (oh er misses) if you forget. Funny no one flashes to German registered cars.....lol

Many new cars are being built with LED automatic daytime driving lights fitted. They are quite effective too. Hehe, them poor Germans!

I thinks it's a European law, all cars built since 2012 have day time running lights. And don't some look awful.................

I get it - it's a cat theme, pussy - jag....................
 
I tooted a car full of lads who nearly took my bonnet off on a roundabout,exiting from the wrong lane. They pulled infront of me (and SWMBO) slowing down,speeding up and gesticulating. I ignored them but asked SWMBO to note the registration. They then shot off up a bus lane and,I though,disappeared. Not so. About half a mile up the road a lad emerged from a side road and threw a mobile phone at ny car before getting back in the car that had caused all the trouble and zooming off. I picked up the remains of the phone and took it to a local Police station and explained what had happened,showing the dent in my door and giving them the offender's car registration and mobile remains,including SIM card.

About two days later the Police rang me to ask if I would be prepared,if required,to give evidence in a criminal damage case aginst the individual.

It was his own car and he had thrown and destroyed his own phone,traced from the SIM card.

How stupid can you be!!!!

I didn't have to give evidence because the little sh*t pleaded guilty.

Cheers
