  1. Had an incident a few years ago where I was driving with my mate in the car, we were coming back from a hard day's work on the M8 towards Glasgow, when a big truck I was passing started to pull out to pass another truck on a 2-lane section. He d**n near pushed into the central barrier despite my (loud!) horn blasting. We got past him unscathed (just!) and he made the mistake of following us into a service station where he confronted us!

    Let's just say that just because he drove a big, hard truck didn't make him a big hard man, cos he got what he deserved!!


  2. well, after the war everything was quiet for a while.  But then superman challened FDR to a race around the world.  FDR beat him by a furlong, which is another way of saying that Superman actually won.  He was so excited about his win that he forgot to breathe.  Turns out he was an alien from the planet Mambo Italiano...

  3. I've never been a victim, but have it all the time. Never actually taken it out on the person though, tend to swear at them in my head or beep them. There's too many over cautious & stupid drivers out there.

  4. Ive not had road rage, but i did see it once

    i came to a roundabout where i live and this car flew up the inside of my bike, this guy hit this car, then he jumped out and started kicking the side door in ,,  the man ion the car tried to pull away , when the guy pulled the door open then he fell on the floor,when he got up he got back into his car and chased after him ,, being on the bike i thought for my safety i wont go after him, he may have knocked me off my bike, if i had been in a car or van i would have tried to stop the situation but hey never saw them again

    it shakes you up a bit though

  5. Right up till the time I looked at my daughter in the emergency room.

  6. A guy swerved around me at a roundabout and braked heavily in front of me. The rear of his car was badly damaged(not  done by me). He continued to try to get me to stop until he blocked the dual carriageway we were driving along and shouted that he had called the police, who duly arrived.We were both breathalysed(negative) and when I asked the officer what the other driver had said to him, he said he had accused me of rear ending him. The officer inspected my car, not a scratch on it and said I could continue my journey. When I asked about the allegation the officer said "put it down to an experience"

  7. I've never been a victim, but a man I used to work with was killed in a road rage incident.  After he and another driver both pulled into a car wash, he yelled at her because she had cut him off in traffic.  She called her husband, who showed up and told the man to "Pick on someone your own size!"  He then pushed him so hard from behind that he fell and hit his head.  He died several days later.  It is especially interesting because both men where well educated professionals with wives and familes.  A real tragedy.  A link to an article about the incident is below.

  8. I was nine months pregnant, my two year old was in the back and my husband driving.  We were heading down a 45 mph, residential-ish road and a Monte Carlo pulled out of a driveway so close to us that when we braked to avoid hitting them our car swerved almost completely sideways.  Luckily there were no other cars around us.

    Our windows were down and they must have heard when I said, "Oh my God, what's wrong with people!"  We drove around them (it was a pretty big, four lane road).  Apparently, they didn't appreciate my comments and soon they were barreling down on top of us.  We sped up, they did as well.  By the time we were forced to break behind other traffic at a stop light, they'd been inches (if that) from our rear bumper.

    Once we stopped, two very large men got out of the car and headed toward ours.  The driver stayed at the rear of our car and the passenger came over to my side.  I quickly rolled up my window.  The man started pounding on the glass and calling me just about every cuss word and crude term you could think of.  He was screaming and beating on the window so hard I thought it would break.

    My two year old was crying hysterically at this point, and I cracked my window just enough to frantically apologize (I didn't know what I was supposed to be sorry for, but I was petrified) and let him know that I was pregnant and I had a baby in the car.  The man started demanding that I roll my window down, and then took a step back to kick the door.  At this point, we still couldn't go forward due to the traffic, so my husband pointed the car at the curb, jumped it and drove through lawns and eventually parking lots to get away.

    The door of the car was completely caved in, and I went to the hospital because of chest pains (which turned out to be from panic).

  9. Thankfully never anything serious, just the usual stuff of being flashed at for driving at 60mph on a motorway - it was lashing rain and the prat behind felt I was going to slow, then flew past at about 100. That sort of stuff. I never retaliate - best to let them drive on and crash somehwere.

  10. A guy once nearly killed me and my mate by cutting us up on the motorway at 70mph! We had to swerve him and nearly hit a HGV. I'm normally a placid bloke, but I made my mate follow the guy that did it. He pulled off on a slip-road and stopped at the traffic lights at the roundabout. I got out the van, walked up to his car and bashed him on the nose!

    I don't feel the least bit bad about it, he deserved it!

  11. We were in the car with my young child, and the car in front started driving really slowly, so we had to as well. Then for no reason at all they stopped in the middle of the road and the bloke got out and started kicking and punching our car window.

    We hared off and drove to a supermarket car park, and he followed, got out and stood in front of our car shouting at us, so I called 999, he saw I was on the phone and went back to his car. The 999 operator said that because he wasn't in front of our car anymore it wasn't an emergency and to get off the line!!

    Someone from the police later apologised after I complained about the operator, as I wanted to know whether it would take the man attacking us with a knife for it to be an emergency? The car the maniac was in had been scrapped on the other side of the country, so they were false plates and untracable.

    The thing I took away from this was to stay in the car at all costs, never get out and confront the person, however much you feel you should and you don't want them to get away with it! If anything like that happened again, I would drive somewhere safe straight away, it was really scary.
