Default Whats the Best and Worst road rage you've ever seen

A corsa pulls up with a young lad and his misses in it, a fiesta pulls up behind wioth 4 lads in, a lad jumps out and runs to the corsa and tries to drag the lad out, a nother lad jumps out of the fiesta and starts to come over.

Out of nowwhere, a lad comes over from a petrol station with a baseball bat and smack the fiesta driver in the head and goes for another swing as the lad goes down.

A huge lad gets out the fiesta and comes over, mr bat swing offers him a swing to which he declines!!

The fiesta boys jump back in the car and try to drive off, mr bat hasn't finished. He jumps on the bonnet and takes out the window screen and side windows.

It happened so fast and was a total eye opener on how things can get pretty nasty really quick but also that even a smallish lad on his own can turn into a handfull.

The funniest was a guy who gobbed of and offered out another driver who had done fook all wrong. The innocent driver climbed out of his car and was a touch bigger than the mental driver, the once enraged driver's face dropped and he went from screaming and giving it the biggun, to trying to reason his point across, No punches where exchanged but was funny to watch.

Was driving through Clapham Junction the other day and this youngish guy in a boxster comes hooting up the right side of me and clips this battered old vectra that was going the other way. Made a bit of a bang.

Anyway, the traffic slows for lights and next thing this vectra is hollering back up the road beeping and flashing and pulls up behind the boxster which is now a car in front to the right of me.

Young jamaican looking girl gets out, all gerry curls and nails and starts screaming as she's walking towards the drivers door and this bloke gets out.

My m8 anna was in the car with me and saw this guy get out, built like a brick toilet and she started drooling [I ain't never fancied a bloke, but if I did, I would be his b!tch] and all of a sudden this mental girl is fluttering her eye lids and apologising for screaming.

Anna asked me to crash into him so she could get his phone number.

Not proper road rage, but it was rather amusing.

Road rage quite amuses me to be honest and I find it quite fun winding up irrate drivers …..although I have never had it turn truly nasty!!

Quite a few occasions have involved people getting out of cars to confront me………and quickly getting back in and driving off when my brother (5ft 11 and 15 stone) and I (6ft and 14.5 stone) get out.

Saw a mental bit of road rage a while back..

Pizza moped geeza driving like an absolute twat cuts up two geeza's in a transit to park outside the pizza place. Words are exchanged (ahem) then the pizza bloke picks up his big old bike chain. One of the transit blokes goes apeshite and grabs a bat from behind his seat.. jumps out of the van and twats the pizza chap on the fore arm (as he held it up to prevent a trip to the dentist). Ive never seen someone run so fast (not surprised if it hurt as bad as it sounded ) locks himself in the pizza shop so the van man does all the windows.

This was infront of what had to be a 30 car queue, madness.

I was at a drive in and just stopped on the way out like 2 meters from the bin to do my bit.. 'keeping britian tidy' and all that, when some fucktard forigner gets on the horn and tells me to move while doing the corrosponding hand guesture. I tell 'it' (one of those people you cant tell if its male or female) to fuck off and they are still on the horn giving it all this and that, so I strolled back to the bin, grabbed the bag then emptied the contents on the fuckers lap through the window. Two council bin blokes behind were pissing themselfs.

Also had some really fat whore, real wayne and waynetta bitch, almost fall out of the passenger side window abusing me driving by for her dumbass husbands mistake. I only mention it as I felt so embarassed for her and anyone that knows her.

Mine was when i was a class 2 driver.

Driving up the M1 in a 17t Container truck when i happend to notice a Eddie Stobart driver sitting up my arse, thought nowt of it.

Next thing i know he's besides me going mad caus someone ficked a fag out of the window, which hit his screen

He now decides to push me on the Hard shoulder, so i'm go Ape at this time.....Told the fecker to pull over, so he pulls in behind me and i slam on the anchors on the hard shoulder and get out.

Now there's 5 of us in the truck, 2 happened to be Moari's (who were fuckin HUGE)

So out he jumps give it the large, i go over to him and he starts squaring up to me, mumbles something then precides to threaten to break my nose.........so me being the hot headed kinda guy preceded to lay into him (quite like my face!! even if the missus don't!!)

So we have what the lads discribe as a one side ruck, which resulted in him laying on the floor of the hard shoulder, at this point i thought this had gone abit too far so i backed off.

Went to turn round and he's got up reached to the back of his truck and pulled out a broom stick handle!! He rushed at the other fella's who were in the truck with it, and whacked a couple.

I rush round to the cab to get a bigger stick( baseball bat ) out from the back of my cab just to ward him off!

I jump in the drivers side, grab it, go to open the door and there he is waving this stick at me. So i kick down at him to get him away from the door which worked.

Turn back round to hide the bat in the back, in the time it took me to hide it & turn back round he's back at the door.

Well caus i turned round and wasnt aware of it he took his chance and smash the broomstick (which was in half by this time) into my face..................................


Well to cut a long story short i nearly lost my sight in the right eye, had to spend the whole weekend have emergency test's, Steroids etc and basicly shitting myself on the thought of losing my sight!

I had to have a month off work, alot of bad nights....and my Niece not coming near me caus as she put it ' i'd hurt myself'

Not saying it was bad but the hospital took picture's for training purposes!!!!

I cannot believe what happend and the event that took place, even writing it makes me think long and hard about getting out, have the row etc........

But if i ever see the fella again, believe me i won't back off!!!!!!

So at the end of the day i suppose i'm trying to say it ain't bloody worth it.........you might win the battle but not the bloody war!!

Ta for listening!

PS i not bloody spell checking that lot!!!

No, to be fair looking back it was part my fault......i was much to blame as he was.

Everyone told me to ring the police, but in my eye's (pardon the pun!) i was as guilty as he was..........

That really made me calm down, i'm lucky as i'm 6ft4 and weight 18 st so its usually me that gets out, they clock me and apologise!!!

Really can't be arsed with that sort of life anymore............. but i do mean it when i say, if i ever see him again i will be brutal with him! That had to be the longest month of my life thing i was gonna lose the sight in my eye!

i had a guy in an old 5 seires BMW try cutting me up one night as i was driving through cardiff town centre with the roof down and 2 of my mates in the car. i could see what he was trying to do and forced him to stay in his lane. he then comes in behind and he's right up my arse so i dab the brakes. he gets all pissed off and trys to pass me on the wrong side of the road but he can't get by cos of a bus. i pull up at traffic lights and he pulls up next to me in the other lane. its some asian lad wearing all his gansta clothes (cap back to front and all that bollocks) and his bird in the car. he says "what the fuck you up to?" i reply "why the fuck you trying to cut me up", he then says "i can cut you up if i want", my relpy "blatantly you can't, thats why i'm infront" he then reaches down and my mate tells me he's got a knife. he then say's "i fucking will cut you up" (meaning knife me as far as i was concerned). i then shut up and looked forward untill the lights changed

Escy - should have called the cops mate, get arrogant tw4ts like that locked up.

Not quite as mad as all the above but I was racing another S2 down the dual carriagway and hit the rev limiter at 7200 as I passed some Pug 406 rep mobile, big bang and flames like usual. I slow down and notice the Pug is right up my ass. he ends up following me all the way to my house and gets out demanding to know what I had knocked off his car!! He thought the bang was me hitting his car, must have scared the sh1te out of him. He looked like a normal family guy but was going berzerk, what is it about cars that makes people suddenly think they can take on anyone - nuts!

Not road rage but found it quite...weird!

I had a gold Mk2 Escort 1300 Ghia as my first car, cr*p paintwork, covered in primer, lowered etc, it looked rough but I loved it.

Driving up the main shopping street in town one Sunday evening I decide to give it some so drove up the road fairly quickly & drove past an Aston Martin DB6 (Like the one James Bond had), got to the end of the road & stopped, the Aston is now behind me, I turn left & drive up the road & this Aston is right behind me, so I turn into another road & he follows me into that road & then starts flashing me, so I'm sat in my car with my mate & there's this Aston behind me so I'm there thinking "Ohh no, I've hit it giving it some" so pulled over & the Aston pulls up behind. The driver gets out & comes upto my car along with his young son & procedes to tell me that his son loves mk2 Escorts & wanted to take a closer look!
There's me & my mate in my sh*tter mk2 Escort with no back seat, gold paint with grey primer spots & this guy gets out of an Aston Martin DB6 to look at my car!
Then procedes to tell me "Look, Aston Martin, James Bond car, have a look", I politely declined his offer & drove off!!

Not being funny but road rage is just an indication of modern society.

I mean how many people would call a woman a "fúckin idiot" or stupid twat if they walked in front of them and how many man stop and let woman walk thru a door first, my point is that once people get in their cars, its all about who has the fastest and who's the hardest. I've grown all out of that (even though i do get wound up - centre lane owners, you know who you are)

The best reaction I ever had (when i first passed my test) was when a bloke cut me up on a round about and i was just about to give it out the window and call him all the usual things, when he stuck his finger on his nose and went "ner ner ner ner ner". totally diffused the situation and made me piss myself laughing.

Had an incident driving down the road with the missus and a guy came round half on my side of the road on his mobile. I swerved up the embankment and he still battered my mirror. I spent a second in shock before losing my temper. I jammed it into first and hammered up the road and performed a handbrake turn (much to the following lads approval thumbs up and grinning) Chased the fooker for about a mile or so until I caught up with him at a set of lights Where I just dumped the car and ran up the queue of traffice and wrenched the phone out of his hand and hurled it across the road. HE started to get lairy with me but saw how fooking irate I was (Rachel said I was bright purple and shaking and the veins were standing out in my arms and neck) He apologised. I knew I couldn't twat him cos if I did I would probably not have been able to stop

Not proud of it at all but he endangered Rachel who I love very much and that just made me flip

I have a story that is a little nasty and fookin violent. a guy I know who shall remain unnamed, was driving in smallford, going over a humpback bridge on a corner, when a car coming the othe way beeped him for going a little too quickly. The aforemention Mate, stopped his car and the other car also stopped, He got out, walked over the the other car, ripped the door open and stabbed the fooker in the right thigh with a screwdriver, and then calmly walked back to his car, got and drove off wiping the screw driver clean on his jeans Not Nice lety me tell thee.
