Bizzare experience at supermarket

Ah, we old farts forget what it was like to be young and reckless?
I seem to remember the bottom of my licence saying "tear along dotted line"..

Carpark/roadrage is a real problem now. The passive-aggresives that wont get out of the fast lane just baffles me. Whats even more disturbing is kids with major anger issues, wonder how they go later when married and mid-life with a huge mortgage???
P seems to be a badge of "young and cool" for most of em, i know my brother in-law left them up for while on full licence..

BTW. i have seen P's in the windows of many E34's.. and a lot drive cars more expensive than that.
I cant fathom the idea of letting your kid buy a hi-po car to learn in. What are the lessons there? In the end its (so-called) parents that need to be responsible for their kids

Testosterone poisoning. From your story, it's clear the guy really, really needed some time with the woman.

Reminds me of an incident I had a few years ago. On a dual carriageway with a 40mph limit. Some old guy (late 60s-early 70s at a guess) in front of me just about hitting 20mph so I overtake. As I overtake he starts to accellerate forcing me into oncoming traffic. I hit the accelerator to pull in in front of him and get the obligatory flash of lights.

A few minutes later I stop at red traffic lights and this old guy who could hardly walk, god knows how he could drive the state he was in, started to try and smash my window to get in the car. I waited for light to go green and got the hell out of there.

You did exactly the right thing, IMHO. Don't confront guys like that.

Might have been funny, though, if you'd called 911 and reported being followed, and they'd actually caught the guy while he was still glued to you. :D

i would have pulled over + tire iron to the head
