Not so long ago I had two people go into the back of me two days in a row in slow moving traffic. It cost the second guy $1900 to pay for the damage to my car, which came out of his own pocket because he didnt want to put it through his insurance, all for a few seconds loss of concentration.

Sometimes they don't want to pass, they just tailgate and urge you to drive faster so that they can chase you. That's so silly. Also they have little regard for the law, they pass on double yellow lines, pass around corners, pass where-ever they see slightly posible. The place just gone MAD.

If someone is in a hurry i invite them to overtake me even if i am given a good ole Bajan cussing!!! Funny thing though, how i ususally end up waiting behind "idiot" at the next traffic lights or major stop.
