Good ride in today,
Yesterday evening I had an amusing argument with a driver who pulled all the way over to the inside, despite there being only half the space between the kerb and the car (stopped to make a right turn) in front of them - blocking my progress on the inside. My polite request that they did not need to cut me off etc. was repayed with a tirade of abuse and whining that, alas, I cannot repeat here without fear of being banned from the form.
I caught them up again at the next set of lights and tried to point out, politely, that their left side brakelight was not working.... and got another foul mouthed earful about how I should ride on the pavement (sidewalk) and there should have been room for their enormous Mercedes to pass the other car if they had just moved up a bit...... I'm happy to say that I (for once) managed to conduct myself with good manners and without recourse to expletives and rude insinuation so I must admit to being highly amused on this destinctly non life threatening occasion!
Just shows that you can't judge the manners of folk by the car that they drive.
Ride safe
Cheers,
Ed
