2009-07-20 - Black Cab hit and run

I had to have words with an Alfa driver who beeped at someone today. I was polite and forceful and he was meek and obedient. I think he thought I was a copper.

Yup. i've found polite and forceful works wonders over spitting rage. I almost got squished between a curb and a driver who didn't see me, low speed thankfully. Went around and pointed out the chin that had just been done up by the road the previous week and told him to always watch out for cyclists. Since I was polite, he was polite. Granted, that won't always be the case but you catch more flies with honey than vinegar!
