Just a quick note to ask if you are the owner of a silver D22 who was waiting at the lights in Bennets Green (near Charlestown) around lunchtime today who felt the need to lean on their horn and vent a vulgar and abusive tirade at the car in front because they didn't realise it was a "turn left at any time with caution" lane and instead sat waiting for the green signal for a minute or so.
Did that make you feel like a real man?
I wasn't the car you had the tirade at out of your truck window; that was driven by a little old lady who looked utterly confused by your out of proportion tirade and become flustered and eventually realised her harmless mistake and pulled away.
No I was the car sat next to you in the next lane with my wife and 2 year old son who learnt a number of new words I would rather he hadn't leant just yet. He also learnt how rude and stupid people can look when they don't have any patience, respect or manners. He looked on with bemusement and said "Dadda, that man is very silly and shouts too much". Couldn't have put it better myself.
So if it made you feel like a man that wasn't the image you portrayed, you just made yourself look like an antisocial ill tempered prick. A polite toot on the horn would have alerted her to her mistake and avoided the whole scene. Or perhaps learning how to be gentleman instead of just a man and show some patience.
