Please report dangerous drivers to the police - Roadsafe. Report to plod, not just whinge here.

Yes you are in the wrong but also a (presumably) professional driver has tried to cause you serious injury using their vehicle as a weapon. Not a proportional response. Report it.

I really hate the term 'professional driver' - most of these are people that drive (badly) as part of their job. Eg. a builder might be a professional builder but drive like a twat.

I was overtaken by a mini cab this morning, he was swerving all over the place. He stopped at a red light, I caught up with him and tapped on his window - it was at this point that he spilled his bowl of cereal (yes, he was eating a bowl of cereal), and then told me that I should not have been on the road. Minicab drivers call themselves professional drivers, but they are really just people who drive around for a job as they cannot get anything else.
