Cocktard in his Picasso decided to pull out straight in front of me. Much swearing and ABS action followed with an eventual near miss.

Unusually pissed off, as this is the second time in two days and follow him to the local school so that I can voice my opinion, seeing as he did not bother to acknowledge the near accident that he had caused.

Get to his car, expect him to roll his window down. But, you guessed it, he can't because it is so iced up. Utter wker, then blames me for driving too fast at 15 mph, nothing to do with his side vision.

Sooner or later one of these pricks where I live are going to cause some serious harm, either through not being able to see, or believing that their mondeo has super powers on non-gritted roads.

Seriously pissed off this morning.

But that feels better!

Stuff it, teach him a lesson.
Oh, and man-in-Picasso = I have abandoned all hope of enjoying driving due to my overactive loins, and prefer to sit, uncomfortably, embarrassingly, in a french people carrier, until the end of time.
Or he's just using the wife's car 'cos his 599 is crap in the snow.

It's crazy, I honestly feel that the standard of driving has got considerably worse in the last year or two.

Amongst numerous other incidents on a 200 mile drive last night, I had an old fart pull straight out in front of me on the motorway, he simply wanted to go off into a different filter lane, but instead of waiting for me to pass, he decided to blindly pull straight across into my lane without any warning at all, even though there wasn't another vehicle in site behind us.

Perhaps he didn't see 3 tons of Toyota Landcruiser in his rear view mirror? rolleyes

i heard that each time you register the birth of any children it triggers an automatic letter from DVLA stating you can then pay 10%less attention to hazards, other road users and so on.

A bus pulled out in front of me on a roundabout on saturday. I sent a snooty email to the bus company but asked them not to fire the driver until after Xmas.

I had an Addison Lee driver do this to me yesterday. Taxi stops in front of him, he just overtakes straight into my path. I just managed to stop on icy/compacted snow and then HE gave ME a mouthful. T****er.

Aye, vent your anger out.
It'll calm you down some

Indeed. If I learnt anything from the education system it's that having an opinion is not allowed!

I had a bus pull out in front of me, went to the depot and demanded to see the manager, got £30 towards new tyres because I had put flatspots on them stopping (about 1" from his rear bumper)

Also measured and took pictures of skid marks and information on stopping distances to show I had not been speeding (the bus driver claimed he had seen me speeding towards him, to which I replied if he thought I was speeding why did he pull out?)

Very poor rant not even half marks.

What was the conclusion to the story? He didn't wind down his window so how did it end? you open the drivers door and drag him out?

Had someone pull out on me the other day and why I voiced my opinion she told me she only looked to her right and didn't look left. I walked away at that point.
