Well, thanks to the poor braking and distance between vehicles, it would appear I have reomved a Rover Metro from our roads. Silly sod was right on my bumper coming up to a set of traffic lights this morning, I braked, he didn't.

Left him with a stranded motor spewing coolant all over the road and no breakdown cover. Cost to me? A new rear bumper. The lacquer was a bit dodgy on it anyway.

Apologies for anyone stuck on the A45 near Brum this morning. It was me.

Cost to you? Now't - make the bu99er pay for it.

Not the Porker I hope

Blimmin' numpty tailgaters. Glad one got his comeuppance. Sorry your motor got damaged. I take it you'll be claiming on his insurance.

Its usually best to add insult to injury in these cases I find...

True, he's paying for it. Will cost my excess, but I'll get that back.

No, it was the Taxi, not the Porsche.

Respect given.

I've hated Metros ever since I had driven lessons in one 10 years ago
