There have been times when this approach felt justifiable to prevent danger to life & limb but I haven't ever succumbed to the temptation.... Will be interesting to see if the story develops at all.

The real crime is shorts and high viz in January

Lean into my truck and I'd tear his arm off, shove it up his arse and parade him up the road like a giant lollipop.

Used to be a similar trick in London

(Allegedly) traffic wardens used to get fed up with vehicles being parked illegally and then getting away with it through diplomatic immunity or similar

The answer was to break off twigs, matchsticks or old keys in the door lock, preventing the vehicle being accessed and also imposing large repair bills

I can say I've been close to doing this a few times. One time when waiting at a junction and some plonker drove into my back wheel pinning the bike in the upright position. Guy even refused to put his hazards on and started shouting about getting on the pavement so I sauntered over to his drivers window and visibly saw him shrink down.

So the cyclist was just cycling slowly in front of the car, then randomly decided to get off his bike, go to the following car and snap the driver's key; poor driver. Something tells me its not the full story

Wouldn't really help these days, what with remote locking, keyless start, etc. Probably better just to kick the mirror off

Angry Bristol cyclist in his 50s? Hmmmmmmm!

 

[Drago]

You'd have to be about 9 feet tall to kick my mirrors off. I'm quite glad I have the armoured personnel carrier.

Why was the Driver's window open, it's freezing this time of year

What if I were standing on the bonnet?

I have recessed cleats, so don't wory about scratches

I'd reverse very quickly until you were no longer standing on my bonnet, then I'd drive forward again to make good my escape.

I'd have just driven forward over the jokers bike.
