I was sitting at some lights on the A22 (not exactly a minor road) when a
couple on a Tandem come past and stop. Not to the side, oh no. They stop
right bang in front of me. Unsurprisingly when the lights go green me and
all the traffic behind are now slooowly accelerating to a heady speed of
15mph and its only when I hammer the horn that these pair of tossers move
over and I look in the mirror and the bloke at the front is laughing. I was
sorely tempted to slam on the brakes and see how funny he thought it was then.

So what gives? Not content with getting in the way on side roads some of you
people now think you have to block the main roads too to feel safe because you
voluntaritly choose a dangerous mode of transport?

Why did the driver's laughter rattle you so much?

So how do you know what he was laughing at?
Do you often have a tendency towards road-rage?
You need to get a grip you do.
