Got overtook by a JCB digger this morning, heard the engine, knew it was big, surprised when the digger blade came past on a narrow section of road, the huge tyres followed, felt like I could stretch out an elbow and get hit, barely a 6" gap it felt, seriously scary.
Arm waving, a sense of impotence to redress another injustice, a few profanities, adrenaline rush in vague hope of catching and remonstrating when traffic slowed, futile.
Another suck it up when made to feel seriously threatened, I just want to talk to these morons and find out how they justify the doucheness to themselves.
Yeah I said doucheness
