How to handle road rage in an M5.

[M5Rick]

Returning home from our Saturday Costco shop we got in a jam on a two lane road that flows into one.Before that on my right a woman in an suv was nosing into my lane trying to crowd me.Well I don't suffer fools gladly so wound down the window and pointed to her to stay in her lane to which she straightened then did it again.Seing I was going to be boxed in I saw an opening on the left and gave a stab on the gas pedal and in a second was clear while the rest were held up by a bod turning right and started hooting! That was a good day.

Its the little things.....

I moved to Sweden about 16 years ago (originally from Huddersfield. And everytime I come back to the UK, I just think - where the hell did all this traffic come from? It seems absurd - & just recently I went to Paris and its even worse there especially at rush hour.

You just dont get this type of trafic outside of Stockholm, and if you do its normally due to a hold up of some sort.

No idea what point I was trying to make.

I used to have crazy road rage until I realized many people have nothing to lose while I have everything to lose.

These days you just don't know what can happen. Imagine your wife/kids/parents/family getting the news you were shot by some lowlife junky because you tried to one up his merge.

One thing I also noticed is my fully tinted cars no one messes with me anyways. When they can't tell whose driving most people behave. This is one of the main reasons I am pro tint.
