I was out being driven around by my wife at the weekend. A nice chauffeur driven journey, devoid of all the traffic jams I drive in each and every weekday. Believe me it was a pleasant change. We stopped at traffic lights, and there was a pub located on our left. I noticed a car waiting to pull out, the driver being a woman. Now my wife is always very courteous to other drivers, and it looked like she would let this woman out. But low and behold this other driver inched the nose of her Rover 400 right in front of my wife’s car, and prepared to ‘force’ her way out in front of my wife. ‘Well the cheek of this bitch’ I thought, but didn’t voice my thoughts since I was only the passenger. But I was shocked to hear my wife literally echo the same sentiments, she was boiling mad with this ‘blond bitch’ :mad:. She in turn edged right up to the car in front, blocking this cheeky dumb blond bitch Rover driver from getting her way. The other woman then had the audacity to beep her horn, which really got my wife raging mad http://www.eforecourt.com/UBB/angryfire.gif, and I thought her fist would never stop banging the horn. Well I must say that I agree with what she did. I hate like likes out these ‘Outta my way, I’m coming through’ drivers, they really get on my wick. I mean she would have been let out, what was her problem? Anyone else hate these bastard drivers? Or would you take a different view?

And I thought my wife had a temper :eek:! I know what you’re on about though. This has happened to me many a time. I do find that driving in heavy traffic brings this on, as drivers get frustrated and tend to 'claim' their road space. All it does is get other people worked up, and is a serious contention for accidents. It's simply bad road etiquette, one that I also cannot understand. The worst ones though, IMO, are those who will simply coast across lanes right on top of you. No mirror, no signal, no road manners – now that really get me worked up :mad:

Hey whippy, are you going on about taxi drivers again. :p
During the last Blue Flu I had 2 cops wave me through a cross roads in town, because of a trafic jam that was building up. This left my car nose slightly covering a zebra crossing.
I thought nothing of it, until I heard a wallop on the passenger side of my car. Some guy was pi**ed of at me because he had to walk around the car and decided to kick the passenger door in revenge. I won't say what he called me from outside the car.
Much to his surprise was when I got out of the car with my steering lock so I could hear him better. His tune changed quickly as he ran off into the distance.
So I was left with a dint in my passenger door. And all because the lady loves milk tray, sorry what I meant to say was , all because I slightly covered a zebra crossing.
Where's the justice?????
