Not a repost....
I was driving on the M18 with my car's cruise control on, set to 74mph as I'm off to work and in NO hurry.
I'm a little tired as, well, I just am.
I'm cruising past a car that is clearly doing about 73mph as I'm just ambling past.
I spot a car closing behind me at a decent pace so I thought I' make use of my car's power (well, the turbo was spooled up so why not) so I stamped the accelerator pedal.
Or, as it turned out, the brake pedal.
I think the guy's eyes behind me actually came out on stalks as he saw a large blue saloon coming at him.
Fortunately he was far enough away and I didn't slow down that much (only lost 20mph), but I did wave a sincere apology.
So if you were driving a silver Golf and a Blue Passat made you poo yourself yesterday - I am so, very sorry.

You've had a few mishaps with motors haven't you?
