Don't you just love the "coward's horn"
Riding in today, car moves left into my lane (obviously I should have been in the gutter so my fault). Thing is, this lane is a bus lane. I shout an "Oi" and helpfully point towards the "Bus Lane Cameras" sign, thinking I might save the driver a few quid, being the helpful soul that I am and continue in primary
Car tucks in and sits revving behind, obviously the clutch is almost ready to be replaced but not quite, so driver is perhaps trying to wear off the last bit of friction plate by slipping it at high RPM, to make sure that it is worn enough to ensure that any garage replacing the clutch must do so, and not just rip them off charging £150 for adjusting it to make it feel fierce
The revving shortly stops and soon after I hear a faint blast of the horn from 50 yards back as the car turns off
I can't help being amused by the "coward's horn", blasting away when turning off behind, just to have some kind of "last word"
