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?

that last story reminds me...a bloke I used to work with recounted (although I'm not entirely convinced it's not an urban myth) this story to me about an old friend of his who was very wealthy.
This guy was about to reverse-park his Rolls Royce in a side street in London when suddenly a guy in a mini nicks the space he was going for.
The rolls driver gets out and says something along the lines of "I say, that's a bit orf, did'nt you see I was reversing into that space?" to which the mini driver replies "that's what you can do when you drive a small car mate!" - and starts to walk off.
So the old boy calmly gets back in his roller and promptly rams the mini up onto the pavement, and parks where the mini was. The mini driver comes back screaming and shouting to which the old boy says "and that my dear fellow is what you can do when your vehy, vehy rich"
I'd imagine he was vehy, vehy drunk as well.
