Road RageLast 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?

Ramp RageI was about 19 and driving down the ramps in a multi-storey car-park. To save time at the barriers I was fishing around in my pocket for the ticket. I then realised that the car in front of me, at the bottom of the inter-level ramp, had stopped so I put my foot down on the brake. No brake pedal. I had manouevred my leg whilst getting the ticket and was treading on nothing but thin air. I had just about enough to say "cock it" before ramming the red estate car in front of me. The driver burst out of his door, bristling with rage. I couldn't see what the problem was. OK, i'd just rammed his car but the damage wasn't that bad. Just a dent or two. He continued fuming and then I clocked what he was more annoyed about. The fact that his mileometer only had 40 miles on it. That would be a brand new smashed up car then. Well, he'll get over it one day.
