Needless aggression
5 May, 2021 - 4 years ago - on Torrens Road I was at a multi lane junction waiting to turn right having positioned myself in front of traffic, for maximum visibility, as I needed to take another right turn slip road just around the bend.
On the green light I moved off, faster than the cars, but then soon got a Ute from “Artsign Outdoor” aggressively accelerating up behind me and leaning on the horn, at one point taking both hands off the wheel to gesticulate. At this point we were travelling at some 52 kph, per Strava data.
Okay He was accelerating needlessly when compared to other cars,and seemed only to want to be angry at a cyclist for being in front of him.
