Me and my dad laught at this topic quite regularly. Je has a Smart Fourtwo and EVERYONE seems intent on overtaking it and if he overtakes something then they feel the need to re-overtake. Its quite sad really.

An AA Transit van earlier today. I let him have it though as i didnt fancy having a crash in the pouring rain. Bad advertising for the company for them to have one of their vans attempt a dangerous overtake (I was already doing 60mph) on me in the rain though...

I was in the wrong lane in my mk3 850 luckily I only had to beat a little old women in a ford ka off the lights to get in the right lane, no chance. Was embarsing being overtaken by a old women who wasn't even racing.

I was once in my dads MG ZT-T and the fuel filter got blocked with muck. I was nursing it back along an A-road at the safe top speed of about 25mph and I got overtaken by a kid on a 50cc moped. His face was a picture as he went past, he had this enormous grin and his head down like a superbike racer, obviously the months of being battered by other road users for being so slow had faded into nothingness by this one moment of glory. For me it was one of the worst moments of my life.

I don't mind when I'm in the middle of town and there's congestion but this was on the A675 which is a fairly quiet road near Bolton. I wasn't even behind anyone, I was in between this little village and Bolton and there's this massive long straight where he had me. It was undignified more than anything, I didn't mind the cars that went past but that was just depressing.

50cc ped rider with the head tucked right down behind the timy windscreen is THE funniest thing on the road. I love it. Always give them an ironic thumbs up....Im actually laughing now.
