After already having one idiot pull across me at a roundabout last night I had another do the same and this one is on his mobile.
I politely point out if he put the phone down he might well have seen me (Had a Castelli fluro yello top on)
I get a real mouthful from the driver telling me I'm a mug and calling in to question my parentage etc etc . Then a police van pull ups next to us.
Said driver still has the phone in his hand.
Who's the mug now? £60 and 3 points isn't it?

I would have loved to see his face when he realised!
I bet you couldn't stop laughing.0 -
This needs a thread on its own for witty comments to shout as you burn off laughing.
"who's the mug, now £60 and 3 points isnt it?" might be tough to beat though.0 -

Nice one Gazzaputt!
I hope you pointed and laughed at the moron.
All this fannying around with points and fines ... Personally, I think the minimum punishment for any motoring offence should be having their car crushed to the size of a satsuma. With no appeals process.0 -

Sadly my search for related puns has been fruitless.
Hope the motorist got no clemen(time)cy, and he was grapeful to get away with just a £60 fine. doh!Nobody told me we had a communication problem0 -

You could have just blown a raspberry at him as you peeled off, maybe even adding a pip on your horn. We will have to remember the date though as they don't normally get caught and we see them satsuming passed.
... Ahem. Sorry.0 -
