Should have had a remapped 330d instead.

to be honest I would be little pissed off if someone stranger was tailing me like that down a country lane as well.

Probably not stop in the road like that though

[Mr Gearchange]

Really? Didn't think he was doing anything wrong to be honest - not like he was hanging off his bumper was it.
The tt in the BMW obviously didn't think anyone should be allowed to drive as fast as him. Clearly some sort of paranoid fool

[Colin 1985]

Didn't look like the following driver did anything wrong to me.

[douglasr]

I don't see the problem there - he left loads of space, the tubby boy in the BMW was a pr*ck.
I've followed many cars on twisty country roads and left plenty of space - not racing, just enjoying the drive. Occasionally I've had a wave when we have parted company - mutual respect and all that...

[ShiggyBiggs]

I didnt see a problem with that either! Plenty of room between those two cars!

Also if he had of shouted all that st at me, I would of asked him to pull off the road before I passed. I bet that would fairly piss on his chips!

[croyde]

What a fekin' nobhead!

That was just normal driving. That plonker has serious issues. Good job he didn't have a gun, or did he?

[GingerWizard]

fking idiot, lets hope someone shoots him one day. Riding his ass????, not as if he was allowing a overtake. I'm in such a mood this morning i actually want to palm slap that fool,.

He was hardly glued to his bumper.

[dougc]

Ha! What a cock! I reckon I'd have just sat and waited for him to move off and then continued to follow.

Personally I like it when someone tags along if I'm out for a hoon. Its good to know someone else is out enjoying the road too.

You have issues. He was more than 2 seconds behind him.

[cat220]

Following driver done nothing wrong IMO. Matter of time before someone belts the BMW driver.

[McSam]

This is astonishing :/

If it weren't for the video comments suggesting that it's a fast pace for the road, I'd probably have considered it perfectly normal driving with the BMW happening to be light traffic, wouldn't you? Doesn't look like they're pushing at all, and the space the guy in the Mazda leaves is way more than the safe, respectful amount. I don't think I'd have have driven past him, I'd have got a sandwich or my phone out until he moved on, but that's just me

Get out of your car swearing at me because you're not ten times faster like you think you should be.. The more I think about it, the more I think I'd be tempted to report him, actually.

Someone's gonna teach him a lesson one day, particularly over there..

[Steve_W]

Can't see anything wrong with that - Mazda was leaving plenty of room.

LOL at the idiot's attitude of how dare you keep up with my BMW!

[nonuts]

wow, he was no way near (unless the camera is playing tricks) keeping a safe distance in my book, BMW owner being a cock, no surprise there then.

[daveco]

The Mazda did feck all wrong.

It seems the BMW driver thinks nothing short of a Porsche or some rare exotica should keep up with him.

[Lagerlout]

Looked like they were having a bit of fun, guy behind leaving miles of room then this tw@t jumps out of his car - WTF? Staged??

Me too, as long as they aren't doing anything I'd consider stupid. I'd hate to be accused of 'racing' if a car tagging along behind me made a poor overtaking decision.

Actually, I hadn't considered it being staged.

It's just way too believable, that's the problem
