I went out for a little jaunt tonight and just as I was nearing home, a taxi passed me and the passenger leaned out of the window, displayed the 'V' sign and called me a d1ckhead. He then had a little laugh to himself.
Something happened earlier with the same taxi where he came behind me on a narrow bridge whilst I was in primary, I then moved out and he overtook without a problem. However what confused me was that he immediately slowed down to less than my speed (I was doing about 18mph down the bridge). At the next set of lights, he didnt pull away immediately even though there was no opposing traffic.
I just ignored it and carried on. I later passed him and thought nothing more.
The driver has a responsibility for his passengers and the actions of them, but should he have stopped the passenger abusing me?
Also, who should I report this to? The taxi firm doesnt have a website and the council are rubbish.
