Had my second only incident of road rage this morning..taking the kids to school..sitting at a red light...you know the story...chatting away and accidentally missed the EXACT SECOND ..the light turned green....
Well...that was enough obviously to send the driver behind me into a fit of rage..he tooted his horn..gave me the finger..could see his mouth moving im sure he wasnt wishing me a wonderful day...and all of this in about 5 seconds of me pulling away from the light !!..
Obviously wasnt enough for him, he then proceeded to overtake me..on a two way intersection... he put one wheel up on the medium strip and pulled infront of me..slammed on his brakes and proceeded to travel at 30km/hr ....ok...Im normally a pretty calm person..but this sorta irritated me a lil...
The Kids said hey mum ..wats he doing..I mumbled something like *$&%($*#$()%$...and then proceeded to raise my pinky and mouth the words..."Little Dick"...and I dont think this helped his mood...he slowed to 20km/hr...traffic was banking up...the next set of lights we approached..he opened his car door and started to get out the car...at this stage....
I WAS SHITTING MYSELF ...!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kids and I locked the doors..I grabbed my mobile and pretended to be ringing the cops pointing at his numberplate...throwing in the occassional..."Little Dick" finger gesture.
Thankfully the lights turned green, we moved on and I quickly took a turn without indicating..getting away from this maniac !!..
We pulled into a shopping centre, where I tried to get my legs to stop shaking, only to see the same driver drive slowly past the supermarket..he had obviously done a U turn..come back looking for me !!!!
Is 8.50am too early for a drink !!!!
