Whats with some drivers who dont like getting passed out? Im sure its something everyone has seen, I was minding my own business this evening and at a busy enough roundie I was on the outer lane and well positioned to continue ahead and once the lights went green went up to speed and then noticed a BMW right up my ass soon after, I pulled over and let him continue on, I was doing the speed limit so let him on his way and eventually met up with him a few seconds later at the next roundie.

i checked my dash cam and it was a 17 reg 1.5L BMW Diesel, but dont see what his point was, its not like he gained anything from driving up my bumper, unless he was dying for a piss or something.

What do you mean by 'passed out' ?

I don't see anything particularly special in what you've said, it sounds like normal behaviour of traffic to me?

If I’ve got this right you’re complaining about people that don’t like being passed, by giving an example of you not liking that someone passed you.

To top it all you’re a dashcam wker. Excellent.

OP are you referring to people who want to race/try to and get best and end up bitter and start driving dangerously?

the driver in question was in a different lane, (I was outermost as it was free) - the BMW driver was in the lane next to me and then when the lighs were green and I went off he swapped lanes to drive up my bumper seeing i was ahead - then I met him a few seconds later again at the next roundabout.

seems pointless to me, unless he was showing how fast a 1.5 L diesel can go.

I could have went faster but its not like I had anything to prove was it? hence me moving over to let him continue his merry way.

Maybe I should upload a video to youtube - dash cam wker, LOL - says another PH retard.

are you sure?

Engine size, 1496 cc. 0-60mph, 10.3 secs. Top speed, 124 mph

Vs

Engine size, 3000 cc. 0-60mph, 6.5 secs. Top speed, 151mph

no need to be an ass like everyone else but i guess that is an impossible thing to ask for on pH lately, was only asking a genuine question.

I take it English isn’t your first language based on your posts.

If you’ve moved over to let him past, why get upset and post on here because he passed you? I’m struggling to see what the big deal is. Unless it’s something as pathetic as your willy wave at your car being faster and more powerful than his. If it is, then deal with it, people will overtake you and worse still, some of them will have more powerful and faster cars than yours, plenty will be newer too. It’s the way the world works.

Sounds like the best solution to me is for the OP to chill the fk out and get some rest, not before sticking his dash cam up his arse. The situation you have described sounds perfectly reasonable besides maybe the BMW being a tad close. Sounds like you have a chip on your shoulder.

Recognise the username I think, is this the guy with a vaguely (and I do mean vaguely) interesting subaru that he'd like us all to believe is the best thing since sliced bread?Started a thread about someone nicking his radiator grills or mirror caps or something else equally inane because his car is ultra rare?

I still don't understand what 'passed out' means....

Do you mean overtaken? Or is it something different?

We've seen the OP and his antics before.

To be fair your OP left out a crucial bit of your story (that the car switched lanes) which meant it made little sense and looked like a strange rant about bmw drivers (in relation to the title)

Then you call posters tosspots for not being able to figure out what you were trying to say... how does that make sense?
