    Well AH any experiences of road rage?

    Here's mine.

    Was driving back from a wedding yesterday and there was this fucking mong driving about 8 feet from my bumper at 100KPH so I decide I'll make him realise what he's doing is dangerous and as we approach a 60KPH sign I wait til I'm about 20m from it and brake briskly to comply with the law.

    He came dangerously close to the back of my car and knew the message I was giving him. Anyway he sticks up his middle finger at me so I retaliate making the wanker action out the widow. What next? He gestures me to pull over....

    Now I've been in two pretty severe rear endings which wrote off the cars so people tail gating me drives me nuts... so I think to myself 'Okay.. fuck it...' and decide to pull over he pulls over too behind me.

    So I get out of my car, as does he, and we walk towards each other. We come face to face and he looks like a strong enough bloke - I must have a looked quite big to him too - I'm broad shouldered and just under 6tf 2.

    So I'm telling him he's driving too close and he's going to cause an accident. He said you should be driving faster or something and steps forward so we're nearly chest to chest.

    I don't like people being that close to me because it's within headbut and knee to the balls range so I push him back a little (not forcefully) and then he swung at me and landed a blow on my left cheek.

    I was a little taken aback but my anger was still there so I say 'Is this want you want?' So I walk towards him and launch a full force kick to his crotch connecting with his balls and say 'IS THIS WHAT YOU ****ING WANT' and he starts to back away...

    I'm not the fighting type but I'm also not the backing down type and after the kick he starts backing off and that's the end of it.

    Btw dude, if you're reading this you punch like a little girl, I don't even have a mark on me.

    So AH folks, share dem road rage stories.

    I have one but I'll send it to the mods for approval because it has a bit of a chance of causing legal issues.

    Once had some bald twat screaming at me because I was occupying the yellow box, I had no choice as I had just beaten the lights and the cars were backed up all the way to the yellow box. Then this lunatic starts screaming at me I never wanted to murder someone so much...

    Never occupy the yellow box

    I remember as a young lad in a car park in Dublin and some lad reverses into my dads car, drives into a car parked in front of us and then again reverses into my dads car.

    Now at the best of times 'the Bull' as my friend calls him, was not a man to mess with but when this driver just drove off without apologising he had to be restrained by a Guard.

    Got out of the car and started shouting expletives after the lad.

    That was a fun birthday.

    Recently I was driving down the road after playing a football match. I was just minding my own business when out of nowhere a bunch of scoucers start chasing me and hurling insults at me. By the time I got back to my multi-million pound mansion and told the story to my supermodel girlfriend I was almost in tears.

    No I am generally a very easy going driver, but I will admit to BIKE RAGE, I really would want to cop on about that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,608 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    I don't suffer road rage at all actually.. I'm pretty chilled out and get a laugh out of **** who wanna give me attitude.

    People are windy f*cks locked away inside their little car, sorta like internet warriors safe behind their keyboards.

    The one I had today involved being face to face and there were blows exchanged. :eek:

    I'm a fairly passive guy too.

    Once had a member of the Traveller Community spit on my car and try to kick the drivers door in at the roundabout outside Dublin Airport while he was still sitting in the passage seat of his mates van. I don't know how they get such a bad rep.......

    I never said I was passive, I said I was chilled.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,029 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    I never said I was passive, I said I was chilled.

    I'd be more the passive type me.

    I rarely even beep the horn when people do stupid things - mostly because they probably think they did nothing wrong so there's no point.

    He was in the wrong lane and wanted to bully his way in and I didn't give so when the traffic stopped the drivers mate rolls down the window when he pulls up along side me, starts shouting abuse and spitting, then opens the door and starts trying to kick my door in. I seen enough travelers in my time to know one and he was defo one.

    But if the cars were backed up immediately past the yellow box, why did you proceed without knowing they would have moved on by the time you reached the end of the yellow box.

    I guess technically you could crawl extremely slowly over the yellow box to avoid a charge of stopping on it. :D
