Impressive OP!rolleyes What is an "alive ride Tesco delivery van" anyway?

Due to a change of marital arrangements I ended up driving a company stickered van for a year and a half or so! You get so many minutes to do a certain distance, 2 minutes for the handover on the doorstep, need to make 4/5 deliveries in an hour, but then we get w*nkers like you - thanks!

And if you don't meet the targets it's time for a disciplinary - flat-out is the only option!
It really does not help the view that many people have of delivery drivers if this is their mandated way of driving. However, I bet you'll also get a disciplinary (or worse) if you pull out around an obstruction into oncoming traffic and then cause an accident.. you're relying on everyone else to brake? Don't come up against me then... I have excellent faith in my airbags and crumple zones and no regard for your delivery schedule. Probably.

You antagonised someone who just made a mistake.
Who is also a police officer.
Did you expect her to stop you and apologise?
Isn't the entire thread about people who made mistakes and how they should really apologise?

Why does the fact that she's a police officer make it any different?
It was more the fact she followed me and then accused me of dangerous driving and speeding (when she infact cut across 3 lanes of traffic at a roundabout, no indication) to pull me over! Seems like a complete abuse of power and a waste of resources!!

I remember she said after she pulled me over and a few exchanges, "I'm a sergeant, I don't have time for this" to which I replied (rather antagonistically I will admit) that she shouldn't have cut me up and then pulled me over for giving her a look. She said she would "get traffic" to which I said it's your own time you're wasting, go ahead if you want. She didn't.

She buggered off after seeing I was taxed, tested and insured.

I'm glad to have a dash cam now.

I can assure you I'm not making it up. On the one hand I felt guilty - I did mess up. On the other, he can go fk himself.

It says a lot about a person. Everyone fks up now and again but there are those whose instinctive reaction, no matter if it's their fault, is to have a go at the other person.
Yup, I tend to think it just displays a person with an incredible lack of general decency.

So it's own way, it's a handy little barometer of a person's character, self awareness and judgement..

Happens all the time in Londomn, like 3 or 4 times a fooking day! now when i go to wales i allways find polite drivers who dont tend drive agressivly on the whole and actually use thier indicators before they perform a maneuver not after, London is full of aholes, spoilt wkers and dheads, glad i spend a lot of time in cardiff.
It seems London is full of foreigners who still drive like they are back in thier country of origin, other than that it's died in the wool britsh arsholes who think everything is thier god given right, like that piece or road you are on or it's Ok for them to queue jump at traffic lights, change lanes without looking, park like an Ahole or generaly do what the fk they want, also there's more police on the road in wales compaired to London, a reason for driving habits going down the toilet is all this CCTV bks, yes they catch pratts who park on crossing zigzags and block off junctions but they are never there to set the wkers straight about thier driving habbits.

Just blast Elton John's "Sorry seems to be the hardest word...." at them next time. And it is sad, so sad, that people react so aggressively for having the error of their ways pointed out to them.

Arrested development I guess. They never did get over their parents shouting at them for spilling ketchup on the couch.
