Peugeot 207, other driven by female

A young girl drove up close behind me and after a while overtook on the inside (Junction 1 M60 15 May 12:10) This idiot did not even realise that there was not enough room to complete the move !
The clown then went on and tried it again with the driver in front of me.
The police should be clamping down on idiots like this - one day she will kill her self of an other driver.

The guy driving this van is an obsolute maniac. I had obviously done something wrong to upset him??? Stopped dead in front of me threating to kick my head in, along with his 2 pals, I think he had'nt taken his medication the way he was acting.

This driver is a lunatic! he drove his car right up to the front of a mile long queue of traffic queueing to get on a slip road on the M60 and then just stopped in lane two with his indicator on. The cars behind him missed him by millimetres. He then proceeded to give the finger to the driver in lane two that blew his horn and sat there until someone let him in.

Young driver with a girl in the passenger seat driving too fast. His music was blurting out at a ridiculous noise.
He stopped his car so quick at a traffic lights that he almost crashed. Bad driver - Speeding and trying to look cool.
