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?

Go on, one more.
Every day on the way to work I have to go nearly all the way around a motorway junction's roundabout. Of course, I'm in the right hand lane as I'm taking 4th exit.
At least once a week there'll be a twat in the far left lane who is heading for the same exit. I can see them pissing off all the other drivers who are struggling to turn off around them as they sit in the wrong lane all the way around, so recently I've started fighting back.
This only works about every fourth time, but keeps me giggling for weeks. If I time it right, I can end up next to one of these twats as they approach the motorway slip road that is before our exit. I'm in the correct lane, he's on my left with no indicators on. My lane continues, his turns off.
Oh, the looks they give me as they get forced onto the motorway...
Next junction's a good 5 miles as well.
