me and two friends were out today on a hack was a beautiful day...great hack just the usual careless drivers speeding by and not slowing down. However this one car flew by even though he clearly seen us and we waved him down he didnt slow just put the foot down and started beeping the horn!! how stupid is he some people really dont have any common sense....sorry for going on but this really angers me!!! grrrrrrr
 
He really was a tit .... I mean if we would have had my son on that pony when he did that, my son would have had no chance .... :S :S

We have one particular d******* who lives in the village and regualrly zooms round in his sports car complete with loud engne, and does he slow down? does he heck! He usualy just puts his foot down with a loud roar.
 
I must admit, if i see someone tanking down the lane i move into the middle of the road, a) so they can see me and b) because they cannot pass until they slow right down and move over.
 
Most drivers are good in our area but yesturday we were out hacking on a busy road(we have no choice) and we're two abreast cos the other horse is young. Anyway this granny was trying to overtake us with another car coming the other way (which is do able but not preferred!) anyway her car bonnet was right up baileys ass and she skimmed my stirrup! Literally if he had moved then we would have been on the bonnet!

Car driver coming in other direction was shouting at her, and a man also following showed the granny a very rude sign

Hiya,
The exact same thing happened to me this weekend, I was riding along a fairly busy road, when a car came flying past me purposely beeping the horn right next to me. Luckily the Cob I was exercising is virtually bombproof when it comes to traffic (lil ponies are much scarier!!) Unfortunately he was going so fast i couldnt take the numberplate, some people shouldnt be on the road its disguisting.. What if i was on a youngster which is usually what im riding out.. Grrr some people
 
Really agree that wherever its possible then take number and report it! Also I think that the BHS are recording numbers of "near misses" and poor driving so that they can force the government to run a high profile campaign?
