last week, on the way back from work (late 01 0ish) a black honda crv, was sat about 1" away from my back bumper for nearly a mile with his main beams on - i decided to pull into a layby,then pull back out and return the favor with my HIDS and foglights..........untill he flashed his hazards [guess an appology] so i backed off.
tonight someone did the exact same thing, infact it was the same car!!!! but the weather conditions were a lot wose (thick,thick fog) and he did it this time for nearly 5miles!!!!
i decided against retaliating due to poor visability.
but i overtook 3 cars on route as did the honda????
do you think he has a problem with me?
i dont know him..he looks about 50ish..
can i report him for being a badger?

It seems to be a regular thing these days, shows the mentality of drivers in this day and age. I just ignore it

I had this a while ago with a Focus, was that close i couldnt see the headlights.
I tend to take a turning, then when your slowing down for the turning, slam on, there fault if they hit the back of you.

tbh i had this happen when i had my tigra.i was driving towards birmingham on a 30 road doing 30.a jeep was behind me and sitting real close.i got to traffic lights where i was going left,as soon as i turned he screamed past me.once he overtook i flashed my main beam once and he slammed on and whacked it into reverse.i noticed and overtook him which lead to me being chased at 80 ish mph for 5 mile.the only way i got away was from doing a u turn into a middle reservation on a dual carriageway

Way too easy to cause road rage these days, one day a big fucker will fill you in.
Just accept that 80% of drivers on the roads today are wankers who can't drive for shit.
