I got major satisfaction from owning this idiot!
<bg>So at the moment a large section of the A1 in the North of England is being converted from dual carriageway to motorway, so from 2 lanes to 3. It's a hugely long section with a 50mph limit on it and average speed cameras all the way along it, it's been like that for as long as I've been driving (nearly 2 years) It goes back to Dual Carriageway after the roadworks and my turning for my town is about 5 miles from it.</bg>
I do this section quite a lot because it's the main road past my town. Consequently I know where the last speed camera is on it before it goes back to the 70mph limit.
Was driving North the other day, and passed the last speed camera, the road was pretty empty so I sped up and overtook the car in the left lane.
Apparently this chav guy did not like being over-taken by a girl in a tiny Yaris at all. I had a bit of speed on him and I'm back in the left lane when I see him coming up behind me. He pulls in the right lane and I get some standard rude gestures. As this is happening I come up behind a lorry and have to drop down to about 60, this idiot slows down to stop me from pulling out in the right lane (holding up some traffic behind him now) to over take the lorry. He's mouthing some stuff and I can see his mate jeering because they think they've got one over on me by making sure I'm stuck behind a lorry.
Imagine his face as I wave bye to him not 20 seconds later as I pull off onto the sliproad to my town

. After that, there's an intersection where I have to stop for the red light. Two cars ahead of me, and a pickup truck immediately behind me with about 4-5 cars behind him.
, and the truck behind me stops. He then gets the idea of using the right shoulder to pass - unfortunately, as he starts, the car ahead of me is able to make his turn.
