I would have rammed him off the road, then reported him for attempted murder. He could have killed you. Wish you had got his reg and posted it on here.

Unless you know something we don't... were you the car in front?
Regardless, our road laws do not work by vigilante justice. If someone is speeding to overtake you, the safe thing is to get out of their way not jump in front of them... if they are a dangerous driver they might pile into you since they're not paying attention. You never know, they might have winter tyres on only two wheels and be unable to slow down...
Report them if you must but do not drive dangerously yourself - pulling out to block them is as illegal as speeding.
I've asked Badger if he was speeding but he didn't answer which makes me suspect he was.
I'm wondering if the other guy got provoked by that, wrong though it may be.Last edited by sasguru; 5 December 2013, 09:59.Hard Brexit now!

Next time get a dash cam (only £40 or so) so you can shame him on youtube. And send me the link
It is for this reason that if I am stuck behind a slow driver I never tailgate because it might give him the impression I am a road hog. To be stuck behind a slow car without him suspecting, and then overtaking when he's least expecting. Double the speed limit for a couple of seconds (if safe), followed by the satisfaction of being angrily flashed by him as I disappear off into the distanceComment

But I can't stand drivers who speed.
Or drivers who use their mobile phones while driving.
The laws are there for a reason.Hard Brexit now!
