Road Rage
Last week I had to stop a guy attacking another one in the middle of the road - one had run the lights whilst on the phone and the other had objected. I actually had to take the attacker's car keys out of their car and tell him he wasn't getting them back till he calmed down.
Looking back on it, I was lucky I was feeling all parental and in control or the situation could have panned out very differently.
Have you lost it on the roads, or have you been on the recieving end of some nutter?

Being a shit...
Coming up to a set of traffic lights, 3 lanes. Left hand lane to turn left, right hand lane to turn right or straight on and middle lane straight on. Now driving this route regulary I no not to go in right hand lane as when theres anyone wanting to turn right they have to wait, causing that lane to stop.
Now driving along in middle lane lights green, right hand lane has stopped. Then man in right lane indicates into middle lane (This being a request to change lanes) then pulls out immmediately causing me to slam breaks on. I get the rage and hold down horn for 5 seconds. At next set of traffic lights he pulls up next to me and tells me to pull in at next oppotunity so he can fight me.
Lights change and we pull away driving parrellel with each other. He's still wanting to fight. So...I start to blow him kisses. Now this had an extreme reaction, never have I seen a man so angry "You've got no fucking arsehole" was a choice phrase he used.
