1 ATY

- report by Obi Wan Kebobi updated 23/Jan/2008

Rolls Royce big black one, Black driven by Male

Seen at 08:15am on 23-Jan-2008 on A34, M60, M62 Manchester To Leeds Lancashire

This muppet, who thinks he is king of the road in his black newish Rolls Royce - Private Reg - 1 ATY, was about 3 cars behind me when he got on the A34 - must live in Wilmslow Cheshire, in morning rush hour. He had his mobile clamped to his ear whilst weaving and undertaking anything that moved!! Then when we got onto the M60 towards Oldham, in the overtaking lane i was closing the gap on the car infront, and not a snails pace either, he was so far up my rear end i had to check the rear seat for a Rolls Royce Badge imprint!! Now, I spend a big chunk of my day on motorways as a field engineer and dont really hang about, and i am usually good at letting people overtake if they are going faster but this idiot had already undertaken and cut up nearly every car behind, so after I had closed the gap on the motor infront, MR RR was still literally a foot behind me, I tickled the brakes, this caused him to his mobile and partly swerve into the middle lane, pillock! He then thought it the best idea to then get in to the outside lane, undertake 3 more cars in front and barge his way back into the fast lane. I watched him pull these types of manourvres all the way from Manchester to Leeds on the M60 and M62 in rush hour traffic with no regard for anybodys safety!! The funniest thing is I passed him in the queing traffic near Leeds whilst he was trying to undertake yet again!! I also was going slow enough to down my window, point at him and Laugh then show him the finger, the prat!!! So if you see this clown on the A34 from Wilmslow or M60 Stockport, or M62 Mcr - Leeds, you cant miss Mr Big Shot in his Black Roller and his priv No. Plate of "1 ATY" thats A for A, T for Total and Y for ...eerm...er Yidiot!! then roll ya window down - point at him and laugh (obviously where its safe to do so, and the Finger is optional)

    I already did it… TWICE. I bagged 2 tailgaters last year. I have a real old banger I just slammed on the brakes and wham. I have a big tow bar that sticks out at the back, wrecked the front of both cars. Bliss… man I’m so smug. One of them was a new Merc the other some piece of chav crap hahaha…

    If you hit your brakes for no good reason and it results in an accident, regardless of how close the car behind you was driving, you were driving in a dangerous manner, which is an offence.

    Tailgating = Driving without Due Care and Attention.

    Deliberately causing an accident by braking = Dangerous Driving.

    The point is… a car should be able to stop dead in front of you for whatever reason and you should not go up the back of it. The reason the car in front stopped is irrelevant. If there is an emergency and the good driver in front gets involved in a rear end crash or killed because of the idiot behind driving too close that’s the crime right there. The very same tailgating tossers are defending their actions on this website. Tailgaters should be banned and have their cars crushed.
