No Jim you're just being a honest citizen like the rest of us on this forum. The stories we are typical of modern society. If you pay your dues you are a sucker. It's like political correctness, another expression that annoys me to distraction.
Today by the way in a 3 mile journey, I got "tailgated" by a van 6ft behind mine with the driver on his mobile phone, slowed down to 10mph at which point he passed, glaring at me, later in the journey a car must have been inches behind travelling at 40mph at the time,
then approaching a T bend got a car cutting across the front of me making a RH turn towards me. I had to slam on my brakes.
With manners like this I just wish I didn't need to drive any more. By the way Jim I'm sure I read today that people caught without insurance risk having their cars crushed. There again if the car's a banger they'll still probably take the risk.
