An irate BMW driver? never.....

[Eat MY Dust]

A short video of a guy in a BMW who wasn't happy that there was a bike in front of him. He didn't seam to mind the hundreds of cars all nose to tail that were stationary in front of him, just little ol' me in front was making his journey hell!!

There was lots of hand gesture from him (none rude may I add) and lots of engine revving and honking of horn. I just smiled and waved! Bad me...

Bless.

Still, he had lots of time to think about things in that nice long queue. Of cars.

But if you hadn't been there he could of just driven over the back of the Ford and he wouldn't have been delayed and he could of got to the back of the queue faster

I like the bit at the very end

Today I was waiting in a stationary queue, left about a cars length free in front of me so that I could accelerate and hold the car behind up less. He started hooting at me because I didn't forward into that vital space. So after looking at him for several seconds, I started off very slowly

I think one of the finest responses to this sort of driving I read is to pull up level with the rear of the car in front of the BMW, point at its boot, and then wave the BMW driver forwards into the space so he can get as close as possible. Then the cheery smile and wave you already gave him, and ride off into the sunrise. LOLOL!

That sounds quality, must remember!

Ah, 'Beamerman' - required listening for all of us who detest the arrogant swine who drive BMWs and treat cyclists like dirt..

From an early album by the ever-wonderful Edinburgh band 'Dropkick':

(whilst you're on that album, take a listen to one of my all-time faves from their early work - 'Chastity Pyjamas' with a classic line about someone in the throes of passion sounding "like a walrus that's needing a poo" )

Good filter EMD...

Hey I like the laughing policeman!! TBH you can't hear anything on the original audio other than the road noise from the bike. The microphone is pretty shabby.

I wonder if the BMW driver saw the irony of what he had done and was doing when he got into the traffic jam..............doubt it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't remember what type of car it was but I once had a driver behaving similarly to me, he couldn't overtake because a council lorry was blocking him. As we rounded the bend there was a massive queue ahead and he did seem to see the irony.
