People who have a problem being overtaken

Velocitee · 2010-10-18 12:39:09

On my way back from Cork to Wicklow, one in front of me (blue banged up Yaris on the M7) doing about 110kph - I overtake at the constant 120kph I was doing (damn maturity/speed vans! :p) and all is well... until she overtakes me again and proceeds to slow down.

About a month ago was heading up the Blessington road, which was deserted. Came up opon a car doing about 50KMH, and when I got closer noticed it was a Lotus Exige. We were in the bendy bits, so was behind him at this speed until we got to a straight stretch, and I overtook him and proceeded to build back up to the speed limit
Next thing he roars past me leaning on the horn, and blasts off into the night. Obviously didn't take too kindly to a scrapbox Golf overtaking his pride and joy
