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?

Oh, another one
This one also happened to my sister, but i was a passenger in her car at the time: We were at some traffic lights, waiting patiently, when some old dear pulls up next to us, in the lane on our right, the lane supposed to be for traffic turning right. My sister says "i bet she goes straight on and tries to cut us off", which does happen but my sisters reflexes were better, so the "old dear" almost runs into the pavement in front, then pull up behind us, blaring her horn and flashing her headlights... my sister, being 19 at the time, looks in the rear view mirror, and flashes her the finger... the woman then proceeds to ram my sisters golf from behind, so she brakes, gets out of the car... and starts kicking the old womans car door. All in broad daylight. I don't think i've laughed so much since.
