Road Rage

[Steve]

Have you ever experienced road rage from another driver? Or have you ever gone nuts with someone?

Many years ago I was sitting in my car in a car park when the guy in the car next to mine opened his car door into mine. I wound down my window and told him to be careful, to which he replied "Shut the f*** up, your car is a piece of s*** anyway!"

My response was to get out of my car, open the boot, grab my jack and then I smashed both his headlights. He didn't have too much to say after that.

When I think back, I still can't believe that I did it and I am sure I would never do anything like it again. My excuse is that I was very young at the time and I had paid a lot of money to have my car re-sprayed and didn't appreciate the other guy's attitude. Maybe he thought twice about damaging other people's property after this incident.

Brake tested some **** in a BMW who was riding 3 feet from my bumper along a country lane (at about 60). He had to swerve off the road to miss me, then preceded to follow me home and have a rant. At which point I picked up a torque wrench from the garage and told him he was a c*nt for being so close and he should f*ck right off. Took a chunk out of his front bumper and scratched the paint on at least 2 panels when he swerved off, so that probably cost him a few quid.

I've blown up at someone once, though they did almost run a child over.
