About a year ago, some young girls in a black Mazda 3 decide to change lanes in front of me. She indicated, and I started to back off the accelerator, then she suddenly merged half a metre from my front bumper. Our eyes met in her rearview as I braked more urgently. She looked annoyed at this idiot who wouldn't give way and was now tailgating her. As we approached the side street where I was to turn, I flipped the indicator on, whereupon she accelerated and simultaneously gave me the finger out her window. I continued on my way, all the while shaking my head at the arrogance and misguided sense of entitlement that some people have behind the wheel.

Sometimes I'm reminded of the old Disney cartoon short "Motormania" with Goofy as "Mr. Walker/Mr. Wheeler" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZgiVicpZGk).

i absolutely and completely hate drivers that get ****y when i slow down in a school zone or road works. whether its 40kph or wateva they always get angry... today i had some women behind me swerviing in this 40 zone... at the time i couldnt see why it was a 40 zone and was travelling at 50kph (which is the normal speed for the road anyway) yet she was still all over my *** throwing her hands up in the air and swerving all over the place.... i felt like flipping the bird.....

i did end up finding out why it was 40kph at the time because there is a cut in the road for pipes or something and its quite deep, and there are absolutely hugeee potholes in it which if hit at 40 would cause enormous damage to the car....

drivers me absolutely nuts!
