put my foot down and overtook, got to about 50 and then backed off as there are roadworks, a pub and an upcoming junction at which I turn right, Saab come up the inside and driver shouts "Tosser" at me but I couldn't see why, I hadn't had any confrontation or got in his way, could it be just I am in an open Sports Car with a fairly loud exhaust ?
Did you hold him up when you turned right?Really gets on my tits when somebody overtakes me then stops to turn.
Just seems bizarre, have, like most people done stuff and thought I could be reasonably be called a tosser, but this wasnt one of those occasions.
You can pay £300 for a rusty 20 year old MX-5 and someone paying that much per month for a Ford Focus, who's opinionated but not knowledgeable , will see you as being bourgeois and flash and shout rude names at you. I once got stuck in Wrea Green near Warton in Lancashire when there was a running race going round the country roads and through the village. One of the bearded and sandal wearing marshals was taking great delight in holding up the traffic and shouting at motorists and he gave the driver of a Saab estate a bking for easing out of a junction and said he was a typical BMW driver. A lot of people have no idea about cars but think they know everything about other people by what they're driving and see it as an excuse to hurl abuse at them.
