Standards of driving rant

[THE_Liam]

It isn't just me that's noticed this then. I guess because we're all car and driving enthusiasts so we take driving more seriously, so we notice it, but it has definitely got worse. The amount of disagreements and road rage incidents I see, and in some cases have been involved in (because admittedly I have an awful temper) made me glad I know how to handle myself in a dangerous situation, and then I thought, how bad has it got when I'm there thinking "Glad I know hand to hand combat when I'm driving"...

Another one, when I went ip to the dales on Sunday, was stuck behind a Freelander doing 40 for 2-3 miles, saw a big straight, safely and easily overtook her. Next thing she's on my arse flashing her lights and pointing at her kid in the passenger seat, so I pulled over to see what the problem was, genuinely not being aggressive, just knowing that I wont stand for that for 10 miles. She locked the doors and started screaming "I'm calling the police!!! You nearly killed me!!!"

I just drove away...
