I'll have to come with you..just to make sure you're okay, nothing to do with beer and naked ladies...nothing to do with that at all.

Would it be a different type of club if it was in Tranny Lane as opposed to Lady Lane?

Experienced my first road rage incident today. Driving onto a roundabout in the totally normal way I always do, guy behind me started flashing his lights and beeping his horn. I hadn’t done anything wrong so assumed it was aimed at someone else, he then swung round onto the outside lane, stopped, wound down his window and started shouting at me. I couldn’t hear what he said because I had my windows up, I assume he wasn’t asking what sort of MPG I got on my commute.

I’ve thought about it and I didn’t do anything at all wrong, it was really bizarre. I go through the roundabout every day and know I was in my lane and didn’t jump the light. Really odd. It’s kind of crazy that there are people who drive about on the edge of an absolute meltdown like that.

Are you sure all your indicators are working? Maybe you were indicating but the bulbs gone?

He could be someone on here who's got a problem with something you've posted? Check anyone who's recently red dotted you.

Bank cancelled my card without telling me, and the new one they sent has gone walkies. Cancelled that one and requested to have another posted out which will take 3-5 days. If I need cash I have to go to a branch with ID.  

Transfer £50 or so to a pal/work colleague and get them to lift it out for ye?

Did you signal correctly? Or was there a baby lying on your boot waiting for her mother to dash into buy nappies while she dashed into the shop and you drove off?

I was going straight on.

When he was shouting at me I genuinely turned and looked behind me in case he was shouting at someone else, which I don’t think helped things. I also kind of shrugged when he was shouting, it was a really odd experience.

If I’m not mistaken, in my day (enrolled in a College, graduated from a University!) that was Pats Bar was it not?

Early 90s it was something daft like £1.40 for a PBnC (look it up kids if you have to) and a pint. And, given that a pint was about £1.10 in its own right, too often were two lunches consumed in the one break. Seem to recall they had one of the first video juke boxes too. Ahhhh, happy days...

Yeah, what are you trying to imply? 

I lasted a full 16 weeks of an Industrial Engineering degree course before jacking it in, I'll have you know.

maybe you didn't indicate when you left the roundabout?

Odd way to behave regardless, he is clearly the perfect driver.

may his anger would have been assuaged by you advertising through a bumper sticker or similar the number of a phone line he could ring to advise you of his concerns. You could call it "How's my driving?"....

Either that or you should have wound down your windows and turned the heating up full blast.

Is it possible he just recognised you?

There is a chance he was trying to warn you about something, what I don't know. I hate it when people blast their horns on a roundabout, or anywhere. Always assume I've done something wrong, probably didn't but I just jam my foot on the throttle and escape, hoping there's no flattened children left behind.

You should have rammed his car and whilst he was in a state of shock dragged him out and gave him a kicking.  It’s the only way to deal with such people.
