Omg, you're not going to believe this story... A couple of years ago we went on vacation to Croatia (I'm from Slovenia), and on the way back we decided to take a different road instead of the main one, so that we would look around a bit more, see some nice places, and also avoid all the traffic. Anyway, this road led up the hill, and it zig-zagged a bit - there were lots of turns. So, my mum's boyfriend is driving the car, and everything is fine until we come to a car that is being driven left and right on the road. And really slowly too. We try to pass it, but it's impossible because it keeps going from one side to the other. The road had, err, 2 parts (or whatever you call them) so there would be plenty of space to pass if the car hadn't taken up the whole space. What made it even more difficult was that there were lots of turns, so there weren't many chances of passing the car. Anyway, we finally manage to pass the car on a straight part of the road, and as we pass it, we see that the driver is eating a sandwich, and the woman next to him is turning the newspaper for him which was right in front of him, before the steering wheel. This idiot was driving the car, reading AND eating a sandwich!!! So, naturally, our driver honks to him while he passes. But then, the driver of that car starts honking back and driving really closely to our car and speeds behind us. He keeps following us until, a couple of kilometres later, he passes us and quickly stops right in front of us. We almost crashed into it... Then the driver steps out of the car, and starts walking towards our car waving his fist and screaming. Then my mum's boyfriend just quickly pulls back, passes him (while the guy is running towards our car) and drives away quickly.
Really... what is wrong with people?!!! This guy drives, reads and eats a sandwich all at the same time, and then gets really angry when somebody honks at him because he's taking up the whole road and risking an accident... and then he follows us and tries to start a fight... Some people are too weird... But, anyway, that is probably one of the most scary things that has ever happened to me while driving in a car. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
