Chased down a driver earlier. He cut me up bad on a roundabout totally unnecessarily. Nearly went into the side of him to avoid him going into me, had anticipated it and avoided it with a small skid.
Caught up and followed him through the side streets and pulled in front of him. It was an oldboy who could barely see over the steering wheel.
After he finally wound down his window I tried not to shout too angrily, but made a point to ask if he knew how to give way, he didn't understand me. I kept repeating and started saying about stopping at a roundabout, he was saying "sorry, sorry, I didn't see you" and as a crowd was gathering I tempered a little, "you didn't see me? with bright neon green trainers and waving my arms in the air??"
I implored him to actually stop at roundabouts or else it's his car that will get damaged when he hits someone, he seemed totally unfazed.
