I kicked some cunt's car today. Why are drivers so often utterly worthless and selfish human beings? There's a junction near work where people turn right onto the road, drive along for about 20m, then turn left off that road. It seems to be a fun pastime of theirs to turn off that road expecting pedestrians who are already crossing to stop halfway while they zip by on the inside. Someone did this to me yesterday and I was annoyed by it. Today I'd had a bad day at work, so was doubly pissed off at a second guy thinking he could just plough through, expecting me to halt in my tracks. So, as he went past inches from me, I kicked the rear flank of his car in a pique of rage. He stopped, I went to confront him, there was a fair bit of yelling, including the twattish phrase "I don't see a zebra crossing there". My rights do not start and end with zebra crossings, you cock. Neither of us were going to back down so eventually he just told me to 'fuck off', which I gladly complied with as he was quite clearly rude, ignorant, and despite me pointing to and telling him about the dashed white line he had crossed, unlikely to realise that I WAS RIGHT.

If I ever become Prime Minister there's going to be some draconian penalties for driving offenses, I assure you. People's attitudes towards cars is completely wrong and I'm quite sick of it. If you want to drive, great, but understand that it's a privilege not a ranking, that you have to co-exist with other people, drivers or not, and at the very least FOLLOW THE RULES SOCIETY HAS AGREED UPON for safe usage of your vehicle. It's bad enough that you can't walk anywhere without having to cross so many roads, without road users thinking they have some sort of right to expect you to always make way for them no matter what. Grrrrrrr.
