Seen at 08:45am on 02-Sep-2010 on A602 Stevenage Hertfordshire
The driver breaked suddenly and showed rude gestures in the rear view mirror. The sudden breaking continued for a while and at one point I just missed ramming into the back of the vehicle and other drives had to suddenly break as well.

Was way too close to my car, in the right-hand lane, obviously wanted me to pull over so he could overtake. I was overtaking and saw no reason to stop my manouvre - I was doing 65mph in a 70 limit. Also, I needed to be in that lane as we were approaching a roundabout at which I needed to leave on 3rd exit. Just before we got there he decided to undertake me at great speed, but he had to brake pret ......... read the full report

There are 3 lanes approaching the roundabout to join the M1 from the A4008. Lane 1 is first left only for the A41 - this is where the Saab was with an old guy at least in his late 50s. I was in lane 2 to take the second exit for the M1. Lights turn green, we all set off and Mr Saab decides to indicate to join my lane and just pull across without looking. Despite my horn, he just gave a brief g ......... read the full report

Ford Mondeo Ghia, blue driven by male
Seen at 07:45pm on 14-Jul-2010 on A1(M) South Of Stevenage Hertfordshire
Unprovoked nasty abuse and hand signals on an otherwise empty stretch of road. I was in the left lane doing 65mph: He overtook, pulled in sharply and began raging.
Very sad/worrying as he had a small child in the back - he should not have responsibility of a car let a lone a child.

Lorry/Wagon Articulated Lorry, brown driven by unknown
Seen at 08:00am on 15-Jun-2010 on A1M, Northbound, South J7 Hertfordshire
Big brown artic pulls out in front of me where there isn't adequate space for a car, and forces me to brake severely (or see the front of my car smashed off).
No regard for the reality of the situation - then took an age to overtake the lorry on the inside lane.
Inconsiderate and dangerous.

Volvo , blue driven by male
Seen at 07:30am on 12-Apr-2010 on M1 Watford Hertfordshire
Driver flashed me on M1 to move over from outside lane, despite the fact that I was a) overtaking the middle lane, and b) going as fast as the several cars in front.
Much to his surprise, I caught up with him after leaving the M1 and told him what I thought. He looked terrified!

Lexus GS 450, black driven by male
Seen at 02:30pm on 23-Mar-2010 on A1 Welwyn G.C. To Sandy Hertfordshire
Thanks to the elderly gentleman in the above mentioned vehicle for straddling the white line between the middle and outside lane of the A1. He nearly took me out when overtaking and cutting in beside me instead of in front of me! THEN carried on driving between the two lanes!! I can only conclude that he was either P*ssed or couldn't drive!!!
