Not to that extent but I do get it. It's so strange how differently I get treated in my car and in a work van.

You sound like the cunt tbh.
Why flash him? Just because he wants to get by you?
Cant stand it when people flash when you over take them.

Fir3vip3rvipp3rfir as the idea.
I get enraged when people flash.
I was going down the a certain road on the way to donnington park other week, (its about 1.5 miles long, and you can see to the other end, its that flat and long on a hot day you see the heat rise ) anyways a guy was doing about 45, i slammed it in 3rd, over took him, (national limit but you can do stupid speeds down it with minimal risk), and he has his hand out of the window calling me a wanker
Why? He was doing miles under the speed limit! There was just me and him on the road! What was his problem?
I end up slamming on in the middle of the road and going mad. Really hate people flashing you when you over take

Worst are the people who hold you up, then speed up when you overtake making it more dangeroous. Why do it? I don't understand.

it pisses me off when you see a really dodge overtake, i feel i have to flash to let them know they done something wrong, if theyre overtaking in 30's etc its just dangerous.
why not flash ? You see someone driving dangerous, so just let them go about there ignorance to see what damage they can cause up ahead?
the police good luck with that...

i had a problem last night. was at a set of traffic lights where 2 lanes go into one after 50 or so yards.
lights are red and the guy is creeping forward (i hate this, can't people wait 1 more second?) so i go for it when the lights go green.
beat him by miles yet this old bloke in a shitty old vectra beeps his horn loads. couple hundred yards up the road i stop at more traffic lights and he pulls up and starts telling me it's a right trn only back there.
i knew it wasn't as i come that way home from work every day so call him a wanker and tell him to go and look at it, then he starts going all spazy and starts slurring, at which point i just laughed and drove off when the lights turned green.
this idiot tried following me all he way home so i just booted it when i got near some NSL roads near my house. was so funny seeing him go backwards
a bloke in a van pulled up next to me a little while down the road and said the bloke was a complete arsehole so i guess it wasnt just me who thought it

someone did that to me yesterday after i overtook them on a dual carriageway, i seen him drop it down a gear so i did the same and he couldnt overtake me, i pull in the left lane to take the first exit and i see him slow down. So i opened my window and said ''it goes well dont it'', and he said for a corsa

That's very different from someone overtaking in a 30, when there are kids about.
