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?

Aah, the autobahnMany years ago I was returning from leave, having been offered a trip in a colleague's car. It was about 2.30am, heading north in Germany at about 90mph ( this was a bog standard Escort ). Some impatient Deutschlander decides that his gold Porsche was just too important to travel at a reasonable velocity, and he went blasting past us at roughly the speed of light- gone. A few miles down the road the outside lane was coned off, and what do we see? The flashing lights of an ambulance and the Polizei, the Porsche on its' roof in the ditch, two zipped up white body bags next to it, and another car on it's side just ahead in the ditch with the driver talking to the police officer.
