White van man threw half a sarnie at me...
Discussion
Was driving along this evening out of Wilmslow towards Styal to go under the runways at Manchester Airport. As I was going past the old Ferrari garage white van man pull out literally yards in front of me
Fortunately nowt was coming the other way so I could go round him. Its a 40 limit so thats what I was doing. A bit further on the road goes into a 30 so I slow down. At this point W.V.M. get literally inches from my bumper. I couldn't even see his bloody headlights. There he stayed til I got to the dual carriageway under the runways. At this point I was a bit concerned so I dropped it into 2nd and sped off with W.V.M. unable to follow
Unfortunately I got to the lights at the M56 junction and they were red. D'oh! This gave him chance to catch up. He pulled up alongside, there was a bit of
exchanged.
When the lights went green the fat get threw half his dinner at me!!
Fortunately he was a crap shot so it only hit the rear passenger window. But it stuck there for a bit making a greasy mess.
Didn't see him after that but if you're reading this W.V.M. (unlikley I know
) I hope you had a hungry drive home, and that you got a couple of punctures, and a snapped cambelt...

why did you exchange words!?!
was it because you overtook them then stuck to the speed limit? can't see anything wrong with that, i do it alot if someone pulls out in front of me - right in front of me - and holds me up, if its clear i go round them rather than having to slow down!!!
i have to admit that someone threw a lemon at me once...
i was walking to school with my mate ben (about year 9), and one of the sixth-formers in his car went past and the passenger shouted "here, have a lemon..." and threw it at me... it hit my hand, which then smelt of lemon for the rest of the day...
the worst bit was i was so dumbfounded that i couldn't even think of a witty reply to shout back at him!!!

One of my friends once threw a serviette at a Taxi driver who cut us up, next thing we know, the police had been called out by the fat prick (taxi driver - not my mate) and we were given a stern talking to!
What a waste of time, the serviette landed on his windscreen and was blown straight back off, yet the fuzz followed us for a good mile and even gave my mate a producer. Silly times.

We exchanged words because he wasn't happy with being held up I think. It wasn't a very logical argument, just a lot of swearing and fat bastard references
The part of the road that is a 30 used to be a really nasty section of road that caught out a lot of people. It has since been redesigned and is now much better and 50 or 60 would be a more appropriate limit. However the powers that be made it a 30 so thats what I did (very careful with my lisence these days!). He was obviously in a hurry and expected me to speed up. BTW the road is wide and straight in places so if he hadn't been stuck to my bumper he could have easily got passed. I don't think he liked the fact that when I got to the dual carriageway I sped off quite quickly. He probably assumed I was trying to wind him up. Which I was, partly...

he he!!!
i generally get the opposite, i'm being held up someone will shoot up behind me, then stick right on my arse, start weaving looking to overtake in unsafe place/30 limits etc...
obviously they're thinking old car in front going slowly must be a slow car, not old car in front being held up by slow moving modern car...
so as soon as its clear, i blast past them, leaving dickhead on my tail behind but if its a duel carrideway or something they come blasting past at some stupid speed about 2 miles later
the problem is they're car is heavy, has no acceloration, but they have 5 gears and a high top speed... thats how they "show they're authority" to me...
