Ok tt, I'm doing 60 in a nsl area, you want to overtake me, fine it's your fking licence that you are risking.

But fking overtaking on a bend and forcing myself and the car coming towards us to both take to the grass verge with two wheels so we don't fking hit you, well that's just driving like a .

Just think of this, if either one of us hadn't moved over, you would either now be dead, or facing death by dangerous driving charges. You were 2 fking foot away from killing myself, 2 of my kids, and the family in the other car.

Slow the fk down and engage your brain you tt, you are lucky I couldn't get your reg

There are times (not many I grant you but this is one) when you do wish there was a plod with a speed gun on every corner.

Good rant and obviously you took his number and reported the incident to the police. What was their response?

But after reading about other incidents on here, i think he was just a tt

Had this the other day going to pick some wheels up, I'd already watched him overtake a few cars behind me ( dangerously) then he was behind me. Where he chose to overtake me defies belief, as with the OP forcing me and an oncoming car to take evasive manoeuvres.

I was behind a Orange Focus st and the driver actually stuck to the limit and din't try to ram anyone off the road. He was an anomaly.

Good rant, decent subject. My only point would be, as mentioned above, myself isn't a posh word for me.

That or people are moaning about it more on the internet these days. I suspect the latter. There have always been stupid drivers.
