Am I going crazy or did everyone outside zone 2 get a range rover for christmas?
Was out riding north downs today and the majority of cars I saw were luxury SUVs, all driven by horrible, horrible, ugly, horrible people. Naturally all on their phones. No exageration - it really was most cars.
Once again, attacked in Elmers End. Can't count how many times it has happened there. Thankfully today it was mostly verbal, although they did try and hit me with their car before hand. All I did was cross the road (where I had priority as a pedestrian, at a junction) to put some litter I saw in the bin. They decided I was in their way so they accelerated to get to the turning , and therefor at me, then screamed some nonesense. Has anyone else found Elmers End to be particularly bad for aggresive drivers?
Usually I have a pretty thick skin for this kind of thing but today quite got to me and had to take some time out :(
Hope he wraps his Evoque around a tree <3 We could, as a country, use a few less balding, pale, estate agents/middle managers driving badly-financed luxury vehicles.
