Road Rage....

Pulling into a store's driveway today (having stopped with indicators flashing) I gestured to a driver leaving the same driveway that he go first, as I needed to negotiate the steep kerb at an angle to avoid scraping the nose of my (quite low) F-Car.

We waited.

He eventually got the message, pulled out alongside me stating "Learn ....... the road rules mate!"

I simply responded, "Mate, I know them, but have to go at an angle so I won't scrape the spoiler... couldn't do that with you there"

He then turned his wheel and feigned ramming the back end of my car by crossing over to my side of the road...much to the bemusement of the drivers in four cars now lined up behind mine....turned away at the last second....and drove off in his rust ridden Commodore shouting some more obscenities....

Leaving me thinking "what was that all about !!??"

Sign of the times?
