Angry ?..Now You Know

Well, my car isn't blue, but I confess I have little time for idiots on the road. I got angry with a toyota driver this morning that pulled out in front of me leaving hardly any distance at all. So I drove around him and did the same to him. Stupid and certainly nothing to be proud of I know, but I was in the male 'pissed off - lets see how he likes it' mode. Its not often... but it happens.
Its an interesting thought actually, but you have to wonder if BMW drivers are mostly professionals, therefore highly stressed people, hence BMW drivers being associated with this due to the drivers impatience to 'get things done'.

I had a young prick in a saxo pull out on me on a roundabout the other day.
As I knew the road ahead was two lanes, I moved over to the right and exited the roundabout in the outside lane. He exited in the left lane. Had there not been 2 lanes, I would've ploughed into him, or slowed down behind him.
He then decides he wants to over take the car in front of him and begins to pull out, but at last minute checks his mirrors and see's me and panics, and swerves back in.
Ironically, he did have enough room to pull out (well, only just) and ironically, I was only in that position cos of his earlier stupid driving (pulling out on the roundabout without looking right!).
Anyway, as I continued to over take him, I glanced over and he was going totally apeshit at me! Giving me the "V" sign and mouthing something. I casually slipped him the finger and carried on.
He pulled out behind me and overtook the car, then pulled in behind me. I could see he was irate, but he then drove properly (not up my arse etc).
A bit further down the road, I noticed he was holding what I think was a phone, above his steering wheel. I assume he was taking a picture of my car.
Had he reported me, I was perfectly clear what happened - at the next 2 roundabouts where he was behind me, he didn't indicate, so I'dve used that as well.
However, my worry now is that he took the picture to clarify my reg, so if he sees my car again (or any of his mates see it, if he circulated it) then he can do damage.
The thing is, in my eyes (and I might be wrong?) I exited the roundabout in an overtaking move and he took offence.

In another study. All prisoners and on the loose criminals the world over. Eat food and drink water. So if you drink or eat your likely to be a criminal.
Could it also be. That during these studies. Folks who have a preconceived idea about others with "higher end" cars. Express this by only recalling wankers in the bling cars. Maybe they can't recall the "other cars" as they are so uninteresting and look so much alike. It's near impossible to tell one from another. So they just assume it was a beamer driver.
