Changing lanes on three lane motorway the other day when my car was punted at 100kph from the rear deliberately by a large Ford Ranger wearing a large bull bar driven by an angry young alpha male . Anybody else experience this ? When I was a WRX driver for twelve years 94- 06 they attracted similar reactions occasionally but since 21 have not had it occur in the GR ! Luckily annoying damage only !

May I ask what lane were you in? The fast lane, middle lane or slow lane? What is the speed limit?
My son just got his P license, and I tell him to drive chill in the slow lane or normal in the middle lane. Never do either of those things in the fast lane or things like this can, sadly, happen.
People can be in a rush and lose their temper. Right lane is for speeding in my opinion.
I'm always in the slow lane, and only speed on the fun roads

And yes, you have a right to do just the speed limit in the fast lane, just as cyclists have a right to ride to work during peak hour, or even just cycle for exercise, essentially making main arterial roads lose an entire lane. This can make some people's blood boil.

No I moved into an empty space which Alpha Ape obviously objected too! Well spaced my guess he does not like GRs. In Aus you can pass on the LHS , but are not supposed to park against facing traffic?

All the three lanes were moving at 90-100kph on a brand new section of freeway that took seven years ! to build !! about seven Ks of three each way! Speedy road building here !
