What type of doofus drives out of a petrol garage with their wallet in their hand, hanging out of the drivers window, whilst doing a left turn with only their left hand, and doesn't notice when it falls out of their fingers???

There was a story in the Daily Star this morning with the headline "Half of UK muslims want Sharia Law"
The next line was "One out of four muslims want Sharia Law"
That just about sums up their reporters intelligence. :rolleyes

I had a similar thing happen to me back in the 70's I pulled into a garage in Milford Surrey gassed up went in and paid for the fuel and bought a pint of oil as I knew the old Hillman Minx needed a drink, without thinking chucked my wallet on the roof while I replenished my oil slammed the bonnet jumped in the car and shot off, about a min later I had a car up my arse flashing and tooting at me so I banged the old girl down one (4 speed column change) as gassed it I started to pull away from him but he kept on flashing his lights and i was not going to lose him so I jammed on the brakes jumped out the car slammed my door and walked aggressive up to him and he handed me my wallet and said it came off the roof as you pulled out of the garage, my faced glowed like an electric fire I felt about 2 foot tall (Mind you I am only 2 foot 6 anyway :rolleyes ) I thanked him he did a 3 point turn and disappeared back the way he came, he must of been chasing me for about 4 miles after he initially caught me up, so I guessing he went about 4 or 5 miles out of his way to return my wallet and I acted like that towards him. :o
Thinking about it now my face has gone red again, what a twat. :'(
Its now been picked up here http://cars.aol.co.uk/2016/12/02/good-sa...150_uk-ttg only they seem to be on the bikers side. Funny how the story is accredited to a person who just plucked the whole lot from the web.

"...While the date of the incident is unknown, it appears to have taken place in the summer, due to the riders lack of gloves..."
Wow, another sharp shooting reporter.
I'm gonna hazard a guess that it happened during the daytime as well, due to the lack of darkness.
They don't call me 'Columbo' for nothing. :lol

The thing about this and clips like it is that it really shows how much aggression there is on the road now, the car driver clearly pulled out on the biker and he probably thought that the biker wanted to remonstrate with him about that and got rude and aggressive as a defence which seems to be the go to attitude for a large amount of road users these days.
That said I showed the clip to my Mrs and her response was " serves the twat in the car right , after that response he should think himself lucky he got his wallet back"
I'm tending to agree
Agreed Graham. Too many twats on the roads these days! I know I'd apologise before giving hand gestures or the like if I'd done something a tad bit wrong! Still, with age comes maturity eh 
I was involved in an incident of road rage once ....I was at stationary at traffic lights , I had a cyclist ? you know the type thought he was on the Tour de France go past me at about 25 mph ( lights were red !! ) misjudged it clipped my drivers door with his pedal and smashed the door mirror off the door ( over £1000 damage ) he rode off through the light off down the road. Anyway I drove after him , overtook him got out and stood in the road to get him to stop as I wanted his details / call plod ?? But he didn't want to stop and rode at me I wasn't going to move and he banged into my shoulder, fell off and broke his collarbone. Anyway outcome was I got arrested , charged with GBH without intent , plod said I should have let him ride off and call them to report it and they'd have dealt with it , maybe they could have tracked him from his non existent reg no or licence :\
Anyway for my first ever offence at the young age of 40 and an employed father of 2 the judge decided I was a menace to society and took me off the streets for 3months and then when I got out the cyclist tried to sue me for damages to the tune of 40k :eek luckily I had a sensible judge for that hearing.
'Kin hell Graham - reckon I need to stop kicking cyclists and back handing twat scooter riders. I don't like piss takers :look
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
Wasnt the best year of my life :lol the worst of it was my bike insurance went from £80 fully comp to £550 3rd party only with only 2 companies insuring riders with criminal convictions and I had to pay that for 7 yrs until I was classed as rehabilitated , oddly didn't affect my car insurance though ... go figure

I had a confrontation with some hoodie wearing prick wearing sunglasses at night, obviously in a BMW, on Friday on the way home from work.
I was riding through cars either side of me that were filling up with fuel getting ready to leave a petrol garage, with everybody aiming the same way, then this drug addled looking tosspot enters the forecourt through the "Exit" that clearly says "No Entry" then drives up to my front tyre, so neither of us can move?
Then he starts pointing at the pump behind me, so i start pointing back at him whilst shouting "What the fuck are you doing?"
I eventually backed down seeing as his car was 10 times bigger than my bike, but not before i politely called him a wanker. :lol

Yeah its amazing that, not so many years ago the place was full of miscreants, deviants and thugs, actually thinking about it nothing has really changed.
We recently had a foccer emigrate over there so that's one more. :eek
I tell you what , we may have given em convicts back in the day, but they're having the last laugh , I know where I'd rather live.
To the foccer that emigrated ..... jealous don't even begin to describe it :'(
