WHY do drivers around Salisbury think that they can bully and intimidate learner drivers?
My wife is in her mid thirties and is learning to drive in and around the city. In the last four days she has suffered three incidents of road rage - cars beeping their horns, drivers giving gestures and shouting obscenities, driving too close, cutting her up and brake testing in front of her while she was travelling at the national speed limit on the A30, so that she was forced to make an emergency stop. We have all had to learn to drive at some point and should remember how difficult and stressful it was.
Soon I will be forced to start photographing offenders’ number plates and reporting them to the police for dangerous and aggressive driving.
