Minirant
I’d like now to have a minirant about stupid motorway drivers. Today’s stupid motorway drivers are the wankers that think that 2cm behind you is an appropriate distance to be tailing someone. To these people, I would like to say a loud Fuck Off, to add to the one that I loudly (visually) flipped to the idiot behind me in the Jaguar today.
Whilst I admit that it was satisfying to hold him up for all of five seconds, I shouldn’t have to. If I’m doing 90 and there’s no place for me to go then you should be far enough away from me that I can see road in my mirror. Not close enough so I can see your hands lift off the stearing wheel in frustration at my "slowness". Wanker. The other idiot driver is the one who decided that the slip road onto the M18 is a good place to overtake. Yes, it probably is, where there are two lanes. Once you’re into the bit with one lane, your *too fucking late* and you shouldn’t be racing down there so that I have to break in order to let you through so that you don’t ram into my ass.
End Mini Rant.

Yup. Totally agree. I tend to drive at between 80-100 dependant on conditions and lane, and its nearly always the big fat jag sat on my arse in these situations. Still, I did see one big fat jag who pretty much forced me off the road about 10 miles further up the road on the hard shoulder with a set of blue flashing lights behind him. How smug did I feel?
