Hi all
I've just been out in the company vehicle. Happened to be sat at a level crossing about 5 cars back.
Barriers lift so all traffic starts moving car close behind me, as I'm pulling away and gathering momentum two lads on cycles shoot out form my right hand side across the two lanes straight in front of me, naturally a beep of the horn from me as it was difficult to stop as car was following close behind. He was close to the front of the car I was driving, albeit slow at that point.
Anyway, a tyrant of abuse is heard from the cyclist shouting at me if I want to pull over etc. His mate joins in. Slow moving traffic and they saw me turn left. Both lads deliberately kept up with me. As I drove off and went left again I couldn't see them. I was outside the client premises at this point I'd been in and collected what I needed then got back in the car as I check my blind spot I can spot both lads shouting 'there he is' and hurling more abuse anyway I manage to drive off.
I'm concerned as I'm in a labelled up vehicle with company name on.
They may turn up.

It happened at that point when (Automatic) you lift your foot off the footbrake and your in a line of traffic can't get alot of speed but are gaining momentum thats the moment he shot across the road with his mate, not like I could of swerved or slammed on to miss him if I had to. I think a beep was fair
