got up this morning expecting rain nope all rained out over night

Start driving to work some muppet was driving SO close to me i couldnt even see
his car behind me

, so i slowed down speeded up just trying to shake him off
he just got closer and closer, so i stopped got out and told him to back off. With this he drove straight for me slammed into the van and just kept on going

if i handnt jumped out of the way he would have hit me for sure i did try to catch him but i'm in a transit

I've been in the police station for the past 2 hours

producing My documents!!!
sorry to rant to you lot but i'm so angry.

When I get onwe of tailgating idiots behind me, I don't try to shake them off. I just drive more slowly. Although this may seem provocative, I don't do it for that reason. Firstly, it makes it easier for them to overtake me. Secondly, it means that if I have to brake sharply there is less chance of being rear ended - or even if my van is rear ended, the damage is less due to lower speed.
No excuse for what the guy did after you stopped though. The tailgating is foolishness. Driving at you is possibly attempted murder. Did you get the car reg? I doubt that I would as I would be too focussed getting out of the way.

Without being the bearer of even worse news but did you get his reg? Otherwise you may find you lose your NCB as well?

yep, make sure you turn up at court if it goes.
As long as you get his address, you will know where to let off steam when you have your next stressful day.
Have had a couple of occasions where i've been flagged down only for them to have second thoughts. :

Am phoning the police to chase thing along today, you know what they can be like.

Can you bloody believe it the t****r that did this has made a complaint about me for being aggresive and the police want to talk to me!!!

Not a mention about him driving off or the damage to the van what is this world coming to?

I thought that if you drive into the back of someone's car you were automaticly
to blame no if's no buts your fault, but not if you say "they" were aggresive

Got the police coming round on wednesday thats almost a week.
I've had to give my account of things about 10 times already
Sorry to rant

Similar thing happened to one of my customers, he had someone go up the back of him at traffic lights, he got out shouting obviously fuming at what had happened, the guy told the police that he was being aggressive and felt for his safety, and he got taken to court and fined for abusive behaviour, ie road rage.
