60 year old Merc man is not an individual case; it's a phenomenon across the UK. Just ride off the moment they get out.

  Oh, I'm aware of that, it's the norm. I had no reason to ride off, I asked for him to apologise for beeping at me since he scared the crap out of me (wide country road, no-one else around) I could've fallen off. His response was, "no-one would see me run over you, now get off of the road."

    You're lucky. In a similar situation but in the city, to quote what one said to me: "I'll stab you the fuck up" and pulled a kitchen knife out. Police did sod all as well.

      Blimey! I'm glad you weren't hurt during the confrontation. I didn't bother notifying them, they never do anything in situations like that. I bet most police officers believe the same as normal citizens, "no pay, no say".

        So am I! The moment the knife came out I was out of there like I was riding the last 1k of the Tour De France through the narrowest gap I could find. To be fair, the police came and took a statement and tried to get the CPS to take it on but they wouldn't as apparently there was no evidence (why they didn't find the fucker and arrest him and search his car I don't know).
