BMW M3 Cabrio Prat - A3
[Rage on}
Complete prat on the A3 southbound into Guildford at 9:30 last night.
Decided he was going to give me (and everyone else) a driving lesson. Having come up behind me into the two lane bit at well over a ton - I was doing a steady ** to ** in common with the other traffic - I pulled over to let him pass (as he was obviously in a hurry). We all slowed for the road works at the Dennis slip road (30mph limit). He carries on through them at the same speed - probably still over 90 at this point.
He had to slow to 45'ish due to the volume of traffic going up the hill after the slip road, but eventually (after sitting about 6 inches of the tail of a woman in a golf) ploughs on up the hill - overtaking everyone at probably 90+ mph - until he reaches the A31 slip road where he cuts across another Golf on the inside lane so violently, the driver has to turn left onto the slip road (he came to a full stop on the slip road and was clearly shaken and upset by the experience)
Unfortunately, I didn't clock his reg number in full - apart from the fact that it was a standard 53 plate (not a 'cherished number' - so probably a company car) - and black (aren't they all !!)
Yes - we all have fast cars and drive them quickly - but hopefully we drive them with a bit more appreciation of other road users than this prat

In my experience that's how a significant proportion of M3 drivers behave. Had a very similar incident on the M66 last year even down to the ***** in the M3 forcing someone off the road just because they were in a hurry.
I give them a wide berth if possible as they do seem to have more than their fair share of ********* behind the wheel.
