      I'm out on the road all day and it's like anything you get good and bad in all walks of life. Best thing to do if you have a tailgater is make sure you have plenty of space in front of you so at least you can still stop safely. Or you could jump on the brakes and have a nice old claim up, remember if someone goes into the back of you it's their fault. Only do this if you're in the birds car by the way not the S2 obviousley

        Modern cars are just too easy to drive, so people take liberties with them and get away with it. I've seen modern BMWs driven in a way that would have seen my E30 backwards in a hedge many a time. Most have no idea of the physics bending systems that are saving them time and again and so they take bigger and bigger liberties and become more and more aggressive. A big spike on the steering wheel would soon put an end to idiotic drivers... one way or another!

          Had someone cut me off like this in a Mercedes in London. He was in the wrong lane, I just assumed he wanted a race. When he started cutting across me without looking I slammed on the brakes and lent on the horn and then at the next set of lights made sure that he realised that I thought he was a right :corey:

          Unfortunately they were plastic gangsters and took offence! So a bit of a chase through London ensued which ended with him telling me that I should "watch out who you're mouthing off to bruv"! My gf wasn't too impressed but the funniest was the passenger in the Merc who looked mortified to be sitting next to the :corey: as he leant across them shouting at me.

          Another time I pulled up behind someone (in a mondeo) who was busy demonstrating their lack of understanding for how roundabouts work. It was ~6am and I wanted to get back to bed so I lent on the horn to give him some encouragement. He took offence and jumped out of his car, so I locked the doors and waited for the left lane to clear. He punched the side window a couple of times before I could get around his car. It probably didn't help as I then wound down my window and shouted "******" at him. So he jumped back in his car and pursued me out of town, through one set of red lights and along the main road for a few miles before I think he realised what he was doing and backed off!

          So I try not to dwell on pointing out to other road users that they are a :corey: anymore as they only get upset! Just a quick toot and the finger and they'll soon learn or even better just die.

                  I remember a time a few years ago, on way home from hols in Perpignan. 3 lanes of bunched up traffic, altho moving reasonably well. 2 French lads in a Golf GIT several cars back, swapping lanes and undertaking/overtaking. I was in lane 3, and when he eventually caught me, he was climbing in my boot, with headlights on . when he realised he wasn't about to bully his way thro me, he tried undertaking me but the gap in lane 2 wasn't long enough, and he got cut off.
                  After tucking back behind me, a few miles later the traffic started to disperse, and I pulled over and he went past, seriously not impressed. He stayed a car-length in front, in the next lane whilst his mate in the front passenger seat wound down his window, whilst summoning up a gob-full to spit at me. As he leaned forward to let it go (by now we are doing over 80) the first thing that happened was the wind ripping off his Oakleys and the following car flattened them
                  Laugh???? I nearly bought a Round!!!

                        Personally I don't think its BMW drivers specifically. Its generally morons that feel they own the road and can't accept that there are cars out there faster. Period
