I was involved in an altercation yesterday with a city gent on a moped. He avoided rear-ending me by such a slim margin his jacket ruffled the hairs on my arm, so naturally I'd muttered under my breath, "Stupid cunt" or something mild like that. This caused the fellow to brake hard and me to have to take evasive action. At which point the gentleman starts ranting and raving about how it is his lane, and I shouldn't be there (on the right of traffic), and blah, blah, blah. I was taken aback, agog, aghast. Such behaviour should never be seen on the road and I must say, I told him so too. Then I left him for dust. Silly little man.
