Last night i was diving down one of my main roads a 40 speed limit at gone 12 at night, not speeding as coppers like to catch you out, when a fellow ford fan sped up behind me and was 2 inches of my back side for the next three roads and two roundabouts he was behind me, because of his ignorance and giving ford owners a bad name haha, i decided to do 30 not 40, he did not like this and attempted to over take which did not achieve, cant remember if he flashed me or not, he then turned off at the next junction on the last road, he was in a white fiesta mk6 in telford.



You did the right thing by sticking to the speed limit, annoys me so much when a fellow car enthusiast sits on your bumper trying to push you to race or drive stupidly!

yh too right just annoys me not going to dis his car it looked nice, its not like he could see i was someone who bought a fiesta for the sake of it you know iv got some mods on the outside so i think he was trying to egg me on to have a little race but the road is a massive bend so a copper could be sitting in one of the lay by's or diving up the other side, and its not worth the risk. just shocked it wasn't a beamer haha

Peeves me off when idiots flash because they want you to drive faster, just makes me slow down even more when I come to corners. If they're in that much of a hurry the idiots should leave 5 minutes earlier!

Isn't the Fiesta like the biggest selling car?  Bound to be plenty of idiots in them lol.

I flashed someone yesterday as I needed them to speed up and they appeared to slow down...  Problem is it was a 70mph road and they had just pulled straight out in front of me, after stopping and looking in my direction!!  Fortunately I was paying attention but there's only so much brakes can do from 70!  :wallbash:   Fresh underwear was needed there... 

On the subject of Beemers I had to laugh the other day...  There was a BM in the overtaking lane for ages, not overtaking anything, just sat there at about ~67 as I was in the left lane and getting closer to undertaking it on cruise at 70.  Then a Kia came flying up behind the BM, tailgating and flashing it to move over...  Oh the irony!  :laugh: 

Seems to be the way here lately, a lot of Focuses actually!  I thought at first it was just the old 405 they didn't like, but they've done it when I am driving the MK1 too!  I mean, seriously...  Show some respect!!
