Invisible Coupé
2 - I carry on home but about 200yds round the corner a Rover 400 parked on the grass verge decides to reverse onto the road resulting me having to swerve on the opposite side to avoid a collision - luckly there was no oncoming traffic.
Boy was I steaming after that!
3 - The following Saturday I was with Jane drivng through St John's when we got to some lights. Before the lights (Tybridge St) are three lanes, two go right and filter into a three lane road - I was on the inner/righthand lane so to filter into the middle lane in Hylton Road, a Land Rover was in the outer/lefthand lane to carry on into the outer/lefthand/riverside lane. As we came round the corner he seemed to drift towards me so I tooted my horn, no response and he just carries on changing lanes with no indication of seeing me (or even indicating), resulting in me having to swerve into the other (empty!) lane, before slowing down and swinging back into the correct lane behind the LR. He then drove over the bridge then drifted again into another lane, allowing me to move alongside and sound my horn at him again - he just grinned like an idiot and his wife waved her hand at me in a dismissive way! Sadly for him we then came to another set of lights which changed to red - so I saw red, jumped out of the car and went round to his side of the car (while he quickly locked the doors). I then shouted at him through his window what I thought of his driving, pointed out his door mirrors and explained their use, then advised him to use his indicators as well. He carried on grining like an idiot.
Hopefully that was the third time "lucky"- one and my car is now visible to other users.
