Name and Shame - Angry/Funny Driver! Aug 16, 2006
So I get into this fight today with a lebanese driver.

Abu dhabi registration 54508. Green honda Civic!

The guy is driving blindly full speed into a road where I have right of way. I blow the horn to get his attention and screech to a stop. The guy has the audacity to get out of his car and start verbally abusing me. Starts telling me he's from Lebanon - which doesnt make sense to me - what does that have to do with driving rashly on the roads - or does it? and then - now listen to this - he calls me a bl***y asian. I mean - honestly - how does that make sense - where does he think lebanon is? - Australia? the moment i mention the police though, he scoots off.

Just loud words - like most bullies.

If you haven't heard, Lebanon is/was being bombed by Israel. Therefore you are supposed to feel sorry for ALL of them.

You should have just driven off and let the guy rant to himself.

Ever been to Lakemba in Sydney?

The best thing to do is just drive on and ignore people that want to get out of their cars and make an issue of things. Of course, that's me telling you what you should do, not what I do.

I was in the outside line of SZR when a Lexus (toyota) Soarer came out of no where and sat on my tail. I indicated right to let the guy go past but instead he decided to undertake me and weave past twenty other cars litraly skimming one bumper. He was going at leats 150, anyway bout 5 minutes later drove past the same guy still weaving extetra and i was in the outside lane again once more this fella shots up my tail again and sits there. Anyway this geezer was so close I could not see the windscreen out of the back of my rental Merc ML and thats where he stayed. Don't know whether he had lost the plot or thought he was Michael Shoe Maker slipstreaming to save some fuel. Afterall fuel is geting well expensive.
