Hi All. Had a bit of an incident this morning and was wondering what the offence was this guy commited if any.

I was in a queue of traffic at traffic lights. Its a road I travel every day on my commute so I knew I was about 3 cycles of the lights from getting the green to go. Consiquently I was putting into practice some advanced techniques such that I arrived at the end of the queue just as it was starting to move off ... just slowly creeping up if you know what I mean.

Anyway the guy behind me got to driving very close and leaning on his horn. The next gap that opened he darted around me, accelerateing as hard as his 1.0L Polo could, via opposite carrageway, to come to a very abrupt halt at the line of traffic in front of me.

I'm pretty sure that if I'd been driving Street Cs company car that this guy would have acted very differently. But did he break the law? What from a legal standpoint did this guy do wrong?


I have his details if anyone thinks it'd be worth me phoning the local BiBs.

Cheers for the reply SC. Was annoying at the time - it does help to vent the spleen on here tho'.

Couldn't help thinking about how his wife must be a really satisfied woman if he likes to carry on like this in all aspects of his life !!
That thought calmed me down a bit.
