The other day I had a guy tailgating me down Croxted Road in a 20 zone, obviously annoyed at me adhering to the limit. Unsurprisingly he went to do a high acceleration overtake in a short gap between central reservations.
Somewhat petulantly, I also accelerated to prevent him from being able to complete the manoeuvre.
At the next lights I had the joy of him verbally berating me for both a) "driving like a pussy" and b) driving dangerously with my son in the car.
I enjoyed the irony of his internal paradox.
