Default Race With Cayenne S

Only Joking

But did purposefully block one in on the inside lane of a dual carriage way on the way to work this morning.

Steady flow of traffic in the outside lane - See the Porsche weaving in and out, overtaking and then undertaking 5 cars behind me.

Gets level and then trys to push in front.

I've got no problem getting out of the way if someone wants to exceed the speed limit, but I won't be bullied out of the way when the only place to go is the gap I'm in, in a queue.

So I kept him in the inside lane till he got impatient and undertook the lorry we were going past on the hard shoulder.

He sped off at over a 100 on the inside lane only for me to pull up behind him at a set of lights off the next junction a mile down the road. I didn't go above 75 either.

Left hand drive - Foreign Plates - Different rules obviously.....

Sounds like a mate of the bloke in the X5 who undertook me on the hard shoulder of the slip road from the M3 to M25 the other day....

Did someone leave the handbrake on when they measured 0-60?

Why oh why get involved if he's clearly not big or clever and has foreign plates?

Disclaimer: crap driving and origin of number plates are not neccessarily directly related . . .

So you wound him up until he cracked... Please don't do it mate, could cause a nasty accident... Better to just call plod with the reg. mark if he p*sses you off that much.

Some people are RSes all the time, some people just have bad days. It's not possible to tell the difference unless you bump into them day in, day out and a vendetta starts...

I understand the comments but am beginning to realise some of the unwanted attention is due to the scoob (see today's post )

I didn't set out to wind him up - Just wasn't prepared to be bullied out of the way by him or anyone when there's no point.

His patience lasted less than 30 secs before he took to the hard shoulder so obviously more tightly wound than most...
