Road RageLast week I had to stop a guy attacking another one in the middle of the road - one had run the lights whilst on the phone and the other had objected. I actually had to take the attacker's car keys out of their car and tell him he wasn't getting them back till he calmed down.
Looking back on it, I was lucky I was feeling all parental and in control or the situation could have panned out very differently.
Have you lost it on the roads, or have you been on the recieving end of some nutter?

Mr/Mrs/Sir/Dr/Ms MigginsI like to personalise those that I'm yelling at - Mr/Mrs Miggins is the term I use. You know the type - Rover 75, driving at 40 on a big open road - I find it helps to abuse them (usually quietly to myself) by giving them a name.
No idea how I came up with it, but now my family and mates all use the term.
Mr Miggins in his Rover 75, etc.
Mrs Miggins in her Micra
Sir/Sgt Major Miggins in his big Jag
You get the idea
Unless it's a dodgy 1.0 Corsa* with big alloys, exhuast, etc - I call those dickwads "Rednecks". Let's be honest, it's just noise.
I usually keep the abuse quiet and I don't yell at cars, etc - more stories of those few occasions later!
*Replace Corsa with Clio, Nova, Fiesta, etc
