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?

beware good weather...
A few summers ago, I was driving through my village on the way home, on a beautiful sunny day. I have the roof and doors off of my Bright yellow Fibreglass (Kit car) Jeep and am enjoying the great weather. All of a sudden this car comes flying out of a side turning and hits my car on the Front drivers side, I immediately go ballistic shouting and swearing for the driver to follow me to the car park a few 100yds away. Bearing in mind the roof was off everyone outside the pub nearby heard me shouting, remember this was aa fibreglass car and I had visions of disintegration.
Well the other car followed me round to the car park and I jumped out of the car to inspect the damage, still fuming! I looked at my car, no damage....I looked at hers, front indicator smashed and a great big scrape down half of the car...Yay, for my Bull bars !! I then turned round to the other driver and asked how the hell she had not seen a huge Bright and I mean Bright Yellow Jeep in broad daylight?
Her answer...
"Well, it is sun-coloured"
