Warning to all convertible drivers

[sars]

I had an interesting incident today involving a cunning Passat driver, heading towards Hull via the A63 (duel carriage way) this sunny morning, top down cruising at 65 mph, listening to some decent tunes and without a care in the world. Pulled out to overtake a lorry and next minute there's a rapidly decelerating red Passat estate in my rear view mirror. So I'm slowly overtaking this lorry and Mr Passat driver starts getting impatient and is trying to push me faster.

So I give it some welly, as you do and leave him standing, once by the lorry, I lift off and cruise into the inside lane......when he eventually catches up and passes me he swerves into my lane just in front of me and......

...... lets rip with the screen washers :lol:

I assume that he thinks hes going to soak me and so I complete the internationally recognised hand gesture :wkr: and laugh at him as I stay perfectly dry

 

[Woots]

I don't get why they still think it gets us wet :?

Quite a few times I've put the washers on and barely get a mist of water on my forehead, which would be quite welcomed sometimes

 

[Bing]

Bloody idiots - have they never heard of aerodynamics ? *sigh*

 

[markeg]

All that heat.... Boils the brain. Happens to all drivers of non-convertibles


Tapatalking...

ah, the lesser evolved of the human species, driving the pile of crap mono-box trying to annoy as many as possible.

we've all been there. just laugh at the fact you're much superior to this particular imbecile.

I was absolutely gobsmacked as I had never witnessed this action before, then laughed at the ineptness

......so has it happened to my fellow forumites

Yeah twice I think
But once was such a poor showing I then had to use my own washers to get rid of the streaks it left :lol:

Not me, I'm usually in the Red car coming up in the rear view mirror! :driving:

 

[Ewazix]

Beats me why people get so agitated by someone in a sporty car :?

BTW there IS something about Passat drivers, if it's tailgating, cutting up or jumping junctions it's invariably a Passat! I wonder if they are wannabe Audi drivers with a chip on their shoulder? Don't know but it's a real syndrome.

Apologies to Forum Passat'eers who I'm sure are different

I was thinking about carrying a water pistol in the passenger footwell for a spot of revenge. Would be great if they had a window open :evil:
