Subject: Dangerous Driver - Should I Report Him? Tue 1 Nov - 18:50
Sorry lads, Won't make the meet tonight as went home to change my underwear and chill.
I had an interesting drive home, passed this guy twice and obviously he didn't like me.
My Caddy is limited to 68mph and travelled at a constant 68mph, passed him once then he rocketed past me then slowed down, I then passed him again still at 68mph and then he rocketed past me again and slowed down again and then I passed him and he full beamed me, I was still at 68mph when he passed me for a third time and started throwing things out of his window while he was at the side of me when this happened.
My plan was to pull behind him and full beam him to see how he liked it, Hit the brakes so hard that I have knacked my leg muscle.
If you look closely at his right rear wheel, it looks as if it lifts.
Luckily I had a misspent youth around Knockhill circuit racing modified saloons and developed a few skills that I thought I would never use on a public road. Not too bad coming out of a tailslide at 60-68mph.
I have two tracking systems in the van which are linked to a collision avoidance camera and also a GPS recording camera which took the following video. Also have the full length video from the first time I saw him and all the video shows that I did not provoke this attack.
Should I report him to the Police? And How?

Alright Keith, Was going to go and sit on the motorway slip road for the next few nights in the Foz and wait till he passed and then follow him home - But promised Bex that I wouldn't, plus I forgot that I am in Scotland for the next few days.
My boss said that from his reg they can trace his address - but again I am not allowed to go past if I do get it.
Only option is to visit Mr Plod and give him my video and all my tracker event reports. The sod booted it and I went all the way upto the Chester-Le-Street junction and never say him again.
Could have been so much worse.

Wish I could have Dean, van is limited to 68mph and he rocketed off and I lost sight of him. Would have loved to have met him again but little wankers like that won't stay around to take what's coming to them, I am just so lucky that the road wasn't really busy as that could have killed quite a few people as they panic behind.
One big question for him - Why?

Glad your ok mate, not sure I'd have handled that quite so calmly. Probably a good thing you couldn't catch up with them after that. What an idiot. Some people have no idea what danger they pose in their cars. I had a narrow escape the other day with a lass texting as she headed towards me.....on my side of the road, then gave me the finger when I flashed and gave her the horn.

if you have his reg plate on any part of the vid you're laughing fella! plus if your van is limited to 68 and he passes you at speed its video evidence of dangerous driving and speeding!!
where did it happen?

what a fookin tw4t, the way he slammed his brakes on makes me think he was one of those 'professional claimers'. Top marks for your reaction speed and avoiding the little shitbag.
