Bad experiance in Betty today

VII Car Care

New Member
Not very pleasant at all!

Was leaving my dads place tonight & approached some lights (two lanes) The left hand lane is very tight at the best of times, there was not a hope in hells chance of getting threw as a white van :rollseyes: was partially in my lane, so I waited for the lights to change for the right hand lane (Mine went before, but I only had to wait an extra two minutes to get threw)

As I approached the lights I noticed a passat come screaming up behind me. The lights turned green (ours) It was not physically possible to get threw! So, I'm waiting ... this guy started tooting, waving, shouting saying 'go go' & I replied 'No!' He then got more & more agitated, which pissed me off summat wrotten! Why the f**k should I damage my alloys for the sake of two minutes!! ?

Lights change, he shoots right up my arse so I jolted the brakes (silly but I was fumeing) I go threw amber, he goes threw red, next junction im waiting for a car to turn, he then gets out his car but by this time I could go .... I was so worried for the vee, really didn't want any trouble! He then follows me for 3 miles, I couldn't drive home so I headed for the Airfield as John was still at work but he pulled up alongside me at a rounderbout & trieds to provoke me ... then he p1ssed off .... [smilie=icon_eek.gif]

I know I shouldn't have retalliated but I have a short fuse which is my own failing. John followed me home after that. It wasn't like it was your usual 18yr old chavs, he was a massive coloured guy! :(

He won't forget the vee in a hurry :s
 
Man that's not a story to tell. But you were right in not chancing any damage to the alloys for the sake of a little wait. Some masturbation specialists are so impatient. Whenever an idiot is in a hurry is sitting on my arse, I purposely slow right down just to annoy them more.

Well at least you and the Vee are safe and sound.... bet it got the adreniline running.
 
Sorry to hear this Dawn features.. [smilie=icon_eek.gif] Some people are utter tossers. Try not to worry yourself about it too much. Your vee is never left un-attended, and not really used too much either so the chances of seeing him again whilst out in the car are pretty slim. Just get ready with ya camera and video the baffoon. :evil:
 
Not good Dawn. A lot of the time these people make more noise than actually following through with any violence. Hope it all dies down in the near future.

We've all been there...Infact everyday on the way home there is a road that joins the A90. Most people go right, i go left. However most people think it's acceptable to mount the kerb and pass by the traffic on the right!

This is the road, not the pavement. Sod off!
 
cheers peoples, I should have driven to the police station & sat outside with my hand on the horn & got the tosser caught! Although, they'd have all probably been asleep!

Yep Ali, I never go on the pavement!
 
its the same situation when your sitting in traffic and an ambulance/fire engine etc comes up behind, everyone hops up on the kerb, and you end up looking a wanker because you care enough not to damage your expensive car just to save them about 10 seconds!

There was a program on TV years ago about it and even the ambulance crew said that you are not obliged to mount the kerb etc to let them past!
 
flol, agreed if it was an ambulance i would have been screwed! But there was absolutely no chance of her getting threw. People must be able to see, large wide arse .... that won't fit surely!! ?

:rofl:

(no, were not talking about my bottom!!) :rollseyes: [smilie=icon_cry.gif]
 
I know somebody who worked on the Ambulance service and he always said its best to just stop or kreep and pull as much to one side as you can. Its the confused drivers that get in a fluster that pisses them off.

I wouldn't worry about it Dawn. The likely hood of him actually doing anything was slim. They are all bloody mouth. Best thing to do is slow to a stop, which inturn stops them. Then feel free to feel the thump of 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. Pisses most peasants off in there crappy rep mobile/white vans. I did it last year when some prat calved me and Pete666 up last year. I gave him a mouthfull and he thought it was acceptable to veir into me. Once I stopped the cockend in his tracks, me and Pete reached brooklands in no time.
 
Sorry to hear this happened, Dawn. Wouldn't worry about it at all as everyone has said.

See you at the Lakes Meet mate.
 
Argg, sorry to hear about this Dawn. Glad you're ok.

I've had a couple of similar experiences in the vee, and worried about if they'll ever notice me and chase me again, but all good so far!
 
In my experience, people like this are small minded without the capacity for remembering a feud. They'll have got their kicks, and they'll move on to the next person that gets in their way.

I've been in a similar position before, it's horrible. Where are the police cars when we need them?! :rollseyes:
