Black Porsche drivers...

    I was down around Greystones around 3pm Tuesday afternoon. Heading down from the N11, I was taking the third exit on the big two lane roundabout heading for Newcastle. As I went round the roundabout, here is a new and expensive looking black Porsche stopped straddling the two lanes in the middle of the roundabout itself. Just stopped, sitting there, waiting to be rear ended!

    I gave him a good three second blast of the horn. No more, no less. Then I squeezed by on his offside. As I passed him, and took my exit, with a roar of his powerful engine, he suddenly rocketed from a standing start up my inside, to try to pass me and force me onto the traffic island. But I was wholly ahead of him, and was well clear. He then tailgated me, roaring his engine at top revs aggressively.

    I knew what was coming next. After a couple of cars passed the other way, he pulled out, crossing a solid white line, and zoomed past, then cut sharply in front of me and jammed on hard. I was expecting something like this. I had the road well read, there was nothing coming, and I pulled out and passed him immediately and decisively, giving him no time to start racing me or whatever madness he might pull. He was now behind me again, and he tailgated me the whole way from Charlesland, through Kilcoole village, and half way to Newcastle, before suddenly disappearing.

    I deliberately took my time through Kilcoole, doing a calm 50kph, with him inches from my rear bumper. At one stage, I looked in my rear view mirror, and he was inches from me, flying along, holding a digital camera in the air, not to take my picture, but to make sure I saw that he was doing so.

    I am fifteen years driving buses all over Ireland and France, and have many hundreds of thousands of miles under my belt. I can handle my car, and don't get intimidated on the road by anything or anyone. But with the screaming engine behind me, and the very intimidating and aggressive behaviour, most people I'd say would have been scared witless.

    If you are reading this Mr. Black Porsche driver, and recognise yourself, all I can say is, my God, you really want to get over yourself. If I could afford a bloody expensive car like that, I'd at least try to be happy with my lot in life, and I'd certainly have more respect for such a piece of kit. But then maybe the car wasn't yours at all. I don't know. But Jesus, grow up.

    Was it really necessary to blast your horn at him? You had room to pass him on the roundabout :confused:

    Ah Man .. I see these knobheads every morning, just let him pass and make it someone elses problem, you'll just give yourself a hernia getting upset about it.

    Just sit in the Left hand lane and listen to "were all going on a .... summer holiday" .. while said knobhead burns more fuel than he can afford and stresses himself/herself out even more way in the distance.

    What a travesty, a car like that owned by someone who can't drive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,239 ✭✭✭Lurching


    Was he sitting on the roundabout waiting for someone to come up behind him, or was he lost?

    I'd say he'd stalled it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,323 ✭✭✭MarkN


    He probably stalled it, you 'made him look silly' and he saw red.

    Doubt his own money paid for it, you wouldn't treat your hard earned Porsche like that.

    Porsche man stood on the brakes in front of OP making it the best option for the OP to just float by him again. As the OP said, he has read the road around him as he pretty much expected this move by porsche man.
    I dont agree with that type of tit for tat driving on the roads but in this case, the porsche driver gave the OP little choice. Id say his head exploded in the porsche when OP went by him again.

    This here made me lose any sympathy for you.. What was the point in overtaking him again? All that would result in is goading him on further...

    If you'd read the whole paragraph you quoted, you would have understood why he pulled out. Porsche guy is obviously a cnut, and the last thing the OP wanted was to be riding up his rear. Maybe Porsche guy will go the same way as Porsche girl.

    I'm at work. I read what it is and i have an urge to click on a pic link when i go home. Is it an image that might never go away?

    Lets just say that the last line in post #19 up there reminded me of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,262 ✭✭✭Vertakill


    I don't know which was more grim...

    Googling and seeing Porsche Girl's photos... or stumbling upon 'Near Nude Photos of Lady Gaga at the Brits' on the same site.

    I feel sick.

    I had a GF from Greystones. I think I know where this driver lives. ;)
