Revolting individual. I was sitting on a wall in the Tesco car park next to the entrance waiting for my friend to arrive in her car when this large white van appeared, looking as if it intended to exit.

Seen this driver a few times on my journey to work. He is extremely agressive and drives too close to other cars. This morning he was right up the back of my car - so I put my brake lights on to get him to move back - and he just went nuts and overtook and braked heavily causing me to skid to a halt and he drove off at great speed.

I was cycling along Woolwich Road (towards the Blackwall Tunnel) and a van swerved into my path to undertake a car in his way. I literally avoided being hit and as he had to stop at lights I caught up with him and banged on his passenger side window and he completely ignored me. What can I do? It makes me mad. Shouldn't this driving be penalized?
