The man without a Brain

This week I suffered at the hands of a man who has excrement where his brain is supposed to be.

We were driving along a three lane one-way system. I was in the middle lane overtaking the car on my right as he was preparing to exit when a car passed me to my left, only to immediately slow down and cut across myself and the car next to me, because he too wanted to use the exit. Both I and the other driver had to touch our brakes because of that jerk.

As I passed him I could see that he was about 45, wearing a white shirt and tie, looking smug and calm as though he had not just done the unforgivable. He knew he wanted to exit the highway, so why did he not simply get in lane to make the move by joining the line of cars that were exiting. No, he had to overtake those cars and undertake a dangerous move that put him a few cars ahead.

Bastard!

He was driving an Audi, and I suppose he holds a post that involves responsibility. On the road he is a complete lunatic, and I think that Karma will catch up with him one day, making him just another statistic. I only hope that he doesn't take someone innocent with him.

When it does happen I will not waste any sympathy on him. The way I felt at the time I would have gladly permanently hastened his exit from the roads.

I should not let people like that get to me. I can only wish for the day when all humans will not have the option to drive.
