Just had a rather polite offer to exit my car...
Discussion
Ok, so just being to pick my sister up from her bus and get some smokes for the night. Driving through my local town I was nearly hit in the side by a woman driver trying to beat my at a (Blue X) give way, I didnt beep, flash, raise my hand or nothing to her, as its possible I *may* have been going a bit quick (Its a nice corner)
I then drive off through the lights to the green X where my sister is waiting, with the car behind me. I then pull out behind this car, nothing aggressive about my driving, but the bloke in the passenger seat is climbing all over the car, literally throthing at the mouth. I give him a shrug of my shoulders, my sister laughs.
We arrived at the lights near the red X and the car launches itself on to the kerb, I keep my distance and the door flies open. Mr road rage himself jumps out, telling me to either get out or he will get me out, and starts walking towards me. The few people I've met on here will know I'm hardly going to win any strong men contests so I reverse a little down the road (Its all one way) he starts mouthing off again, so i keep where i'm at, he then decides to run, so another quick blip and reverse was the order of the day, by now his carer/girlfriend has got out and is trying to get him back in.
Once the lights went green I just floored it past and headed my merry way home (albeit a bit quicker than usual) but was just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar, and possibly tell me where I went wrong (Besides not running the
over)
Notes:
1. Yes, I know I live in a st town. Bonus points if you can name it. 
2. In all the excitement I forgot my fags. Arse.

This thread has got Donny written all over it! (not that I cheated you understand). Where's my prize?1. Yes, I know I live in a s

t. Could have been anybody and you got unlucky. No matter whether you did something wrong or not, there is no logic to somebody wanting to come to blows with a stranger for what sounds like a total non event. You will never understand his logic because there isn't any. Edited by Gad-Westy on Thursday 27th May 21:53

Ahhh, no fair, your pretty local. b9boy said:
whats with the concrete circle in the middle of the map? Is that where the locals still 'stone witches'??
Seriously thought your restraint in selecting reverse gear instead of first and a bootfull of throttle is medal worthy!!

Yeah, your probably about right with the 'bandstand' being used for witch stoning. There are often locals there getting stoned themselves.When I nailed it when the lights went green I did have a vision that he was about to try stop me with his body weight
I wouldn't of had much time to slow. I once pulled out to overtake an older chap who clearly didn't like the idea of me passing so decided he would attempt to kill me. First he matched my speed and would not allow me back in, after a couple of near misses with oncoming traffic he allowed me to pull in behind him again. I should point out that I was in a Rover 214si and he was in a Jag. Anyway, he then stopped in the road and got out of his car. I didn't fancy another adventure on the other side of the road and so I sat and waited for him to have his say.
Sadly, he wanted to have more than a 'say' and was soon reaching inside my car through the window trying to grab me. I politely told him to f-off which seemed to just build on his rage. He started ordering me to get out which to me seemed a bad idea for a whole host of reasons, namely; there was now a huge line of traffic behind and he was old so I worried that I would look bad whether I won the fight or not.
Eventually he realised that he was making a tit of himself and holding up a million people and so jumped back in his car shouting, "I've got you plate and will be calling the police" which was funny seeing as he had tried to kill me. Unsurprisingly I never heard anything from the police.

Long time ago now, but I had a couple of burly blokes jump out of a car and come at me - very scary - because I had beaten them away from the previous lights on a dual carriageway. I wasn't even trying to "race" them - I was in a sports car and they were in some ancient Orion - I only really noticed them when I heard them "chirp" their tyres. I did a swift exit through the red light and as luck would have it there were some police about half a mile later - close shave.

Im a little concerned JohneeBoy that you suggest you might NOT have won a a hand to hand fight with an OAP in a jag ha ha! That could happen?
