The other side of policing
Today I had the experience of road rage
Basically a large flat bed lorry came up a one way street the wrong way - and as I could not reverse back on to the round about I stopped and raised my hands to show "what do you want me to do?"
The driver wound down his window and said something - so I wound down my window
Next thing I know he is out of the cab, reaching into my car and punching me
A passer by interceded while his partner called the police
Several other witnesses came forward at this time
The police responded promptly
The officers were professional, courteous and organised
I am currently having a coffee break while giving a statement
I have no injury of note btw - but am a little shocked
Hats off to norfolk police

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

well statement done
am off to doctors later - i had already got an appointment so will get them to do the once over
rather worryingly, and now its done, it has brought back a lot of memories of the rather nasty incident i suffered a few years ago. I fear that could be an issue

Hope you manage to do the redneck fucker in a big bad legal way, the tosser needs to learn that his issues (probably penis size related) are not the fault of the innocent unsuspecting public.Aladinsaneuk wrote:well statement done

Glad you're ok

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Bloody scary experience!
Wonder if the lorry driver had been drinking?
I reckon you should certainly sue him!
Glad you're relatively unscathed, but about the other thing - if it proves to be a problem, get some CBT or similar, soonest. Yes I know you're a nurse and you know all about medical stuff but that doesn't mean your friends don't need to tell you!

take the neanderthal for a pretty penny using the legal system,,,,if nothing else it might help stop him from doing it to someone else and maybe causing serious damage to their heads.!!!!
