was late for work today and came across the nutter woman, have mentioned her before, I go earlier now to avoid her.
Basically she "races", tailgates everyone, me many a time and I mean proper unsafe close, I have accellerated to open gaps and she just races back up, I have brought the car to an almost stop on a 40mph road and warned her visually only to be met with abuse and hand waving, Someone other than me will stop and lamp her one for sure, only a matter of time. Young-ish, 20-35 maybe, seems very irate, maybe out every night drinking, typical aggressive female that think there it.
Today, she came wanging down the second lane as the lights changed, I was in lane one, flew up the bumper of car in front, instead of politely merging, she swerved completely onto the other side of the road to maintain her speed, around the car, past, and cut infront of same, was only a car gap anyway. I then watched her swerve a little, probaby texting as they all do or just too busy in the cabin.
I ended up behind her but kept my distance so again couldn't get the plate.
All I want for xmas is for her to get her come-uppance big style, please please Santa arrange this.

I know exactly the sort of driver you're talking about. Sadly one I saw today doing roughly the same thing was a young lad with his missus in a facelift white ST. People just dont think about others and taking it easy adds not a vast amount to journey times tbh.

Sadly she will probably hurt someone else along with herself.. she'll probably say it was all their fault too!

Unfortunally they are everywhere. Down here they are doing it whilst on their mobiles. If it's at night and i'm following i'll give a quick double flash of the headlights and when the look in their mirror hold my hand to my ear. 9 times out of 10 the hang up thinking it's plod.

Thing is it actually takes alot of thinking to drive quickly cutting into little gaps etc, and well that makes my brain hurt so I don't bother
