So on my way home tonight I ran the usual gauntlet of Denton Rock roundabout. I’m always really careful on that roundabout as it’s either full of idiots who don’t know what lane they should be in, or idiots who don’t care what lane they should be in and cut you up so they don’t have to wait in the queues.
I was in the middle lane funnelling into the M67 with a brand new white corsa in front of me and a raggedy looking Lexus taxi to my right. The taxi decides to push in at the last minute and speeds up then swerves in front of the corsa without indicating. The Lexus misses the central reservation barrier by the skin of his teeth. The lad in the corsa gets proper cut up and brakes hard / almost hits the car in the lane to his left in efforts to avoid the taxi. The usual exchange of polite hand signals ensues between them.
When we get onto the M67, the lad in the corsa undertakes the taxi and pulls alongside him. Down comes the drivers window and then a coke can is launched like a Saturn 5 rocket leaving a coke vapour trail behind it as it bounces off the taxi’s bonnet and hits the windscreen.
I dunno which of these clowns I was most dismayed by, but I confess I’ve never seen stuff deliberately thrown between drivers before. Has anyone else witnessed folk chucking stuff at each other ?
