Coming through the village of Flyford Flavell, obviously a 30 zone, so im travelling behind a women in a people carrier with her child, we are doing about 35 mph.
We go past this man on the end of his drive, he was maybe in his late 40's so not some OAP.
She goes past he just looks at her, I go past and he start flapping his arm up and down shouting SLOW DOWN!
I was like WTF!!! i was doing 35mph behind a women in her people carrier FFS, and besides who the feck are you to tell me how to drive.
I stuck my fingers up at him out the window, still pissed me a off a bit though
I was half tempted to go back and ask him if he had noticed that he had a problem with his arm

On the way to work this morning (6am) I was gently trundling down a 30 zone and a range rover pulled in behind me right up my arse flashing his lights. I slowed down to about 20, when I started getting wanker signs etc.
He goes to pull round me (In a 30!?) so I just dropped a cog, covered him in diesel fumes and then slowed down again, repeating this all the way to work 
Cheered me up for work anyway

the other day i was on my way home from work..... plenty of traffic.. crawling through the lights, had to stop before a Keep Clear box... a police car pulls out from the left as their lights go on green... again still crawling. his set of lights go on red, so hes now just infront of the keep clear box, our lights go green... ive got nowhere to go... so the tit behind me in a chavved up vectra starts beeping and swearing at me to move forward a car length into a KEEP CLEAR box with a POLICE CAR just infront of me !! so i politely told him to wait.
