Default Tool on roundabout in BM

On the way back from a few nights fishing this afternoon.

Approaching a roundabout, tool in BMW estate, up my arse - I`m doing 70 in a 60, braking for the approach. Weapon starts gesturing 'out of the way', remember, approaching a roundabout here.

So he cuts inside, tries to take me on the inside, I see red, nail it on the exit, he can't get past in his oil burner (I am in mine).

I've got the left seat brake squawking at me.

It's all getting angry. He pulls in front from undertaking me, as the left seat brake in my motor starts registering.

So then I go up his arse, gesturing as he did to me. He then makes a nutcase overtake where there was no space.


What the #### is up with these people? I was minding my own business and 'Mr king of the road in his 7k oil burner' turns up.

Best of it was he had to be early 50s, with his missus in the passenger seat.

To floor it is what theyare after.. a race, they got summat to prove in old oil burners, we S drivers have not..

My favourite is to slow right down and block them bigtime, when they go to overtake, indicate and move to block.....
This will piss them off more than you can emagine..

I love it!

Should have just left him to it, surely your reaction makes you as bad as him (well kind of)

The left seat brake kept pointing that little fact out. But I did not agree, I kept saying 'but I'm not the c**t that started it, I was minding my own business, then....'

Its a shame I kept repeating the same line to her for 10 miles.

But I got mad coz he was being a complete slit.

Redmist came before me - but I am calm again now

You should have just let him past.Doesn't matter who started it.You put yourself(your choice) and your partner(no choice) in such a compromising situation.So, how did you feel after you gave him a taste of his own medicine?

Next time, think about this......

And remember the guy who got caught up in a road rage incident,only it turns out to be Kenneth Noye as the other party,who in turn stabbed him 15 times in the neck...

Stupid situation to be in, and a stupid reaction to it...

I felt good because he had more grey hair than me. I also thought looking at him, that I could have 'had 'im' no worries and I reckon the missus could of taken his missus.

So playing the odds game, I reckon the carpers would of come out on top.

Knives are a poofs way out of a ruck, saying that, I had a rucksack with three pretty tasty ones in it.

You can't spend your whole life ducking out of trouble because of what went before you.

the only mistake you made was to get involved with the missus on board
