... pedestrian rage ...

So I am trying to cross at a zebra crossing - which in England - means I have priority - the first car accelerates - and I would have been knocked over if I'd attempted to cross - there is a gap between this car and the next - so I start to cross - the second car accelerates - I stop - the car brakes - stops on the crossing - forcing me to step back.

The driver shouts at me - then I lost it - I screamed at her - not swearing - but who did she think she was - didn't she know how to drive - didn't she know the law - didn't she know cars could hurt people. As I shouted I moved in - my face closer and closer to hers on opposite sides of the window screen.

Suddenly she went from being aggressive to very scared - and cowered - and seemed to be muttering sorry -sorry.

I walked off - I still feel bad.
