This is a question "Needless to say, I had the last laugh"

Celebrity autobiographies are filled to the brim with self-righteous tales of smug oneupmanship. So, forget you had any shame, grab a coffee and a croissant, and tell us your smug tales of when you got one over somebody.

Thanks to Ring of Fire for the suggestion

No Accords involved
Myself and another car were on the receiving end of some road rage a good few years back with someone who thought that we shouldn't have overtaken a lorry when he was doing a good ton and a bit and made him slow down to the 80ish we were doing. Once he'd blared his horn for long enough and given me plenty of hand gestures and verbal (I was the car at the front so it was obviously my fault) he zoomed off into the distance. The car behind me zoomed off as well and as I wasn't going to get involved in their macho bullshit so I carried on by myself.
About 10 minutes later I saw them both parked on the hard shoulder. As I drove past I wondered if I'd see them having a punch up. I didn't. What I did see was the blue flashing lights on the car that had been tailing me. My smugness level increased for a while and if I'd had any croissants in the car I'd have had one.

I'm sorry but this doesn't make sense.....
"we shouldn't have overtaken a lorry when he was doing a good ton and a bit"

"made him slow down to the 80ish we were doing"

So were you doing a good ton and a bit or 80ish?

Either way it sounds like you were lucky some twat was going faster so the rozzers pulled them over and not you....no wonder you had the last laugh!

PS were you in your Honda Accord?
