Brilliant, I think it's really good that you took it so far and very brave of you to stand in a courtroom and be able to keep it together. That sounds horribly patronising, but I don't mean it to, I really don't think I could have taken it that far. I never know how I'd react in a situation like you were in, but my first thoughts always go to blind rage and grabbing a D-lock so I think I'd just get myself in even more trouble.
Sounds like a horrible antisocial cunt will get what he deserves, and as we can attest to from the bad driving and bad cycling threads that doesn't happen often.
It also sounds like the police come across reasonably well in this, deciding to go for a stronger charge against him rather than playing it down.
