In the last couple of weeks or so, I've had three near misses whilst driving. They were all with Audi high performance cars.
Has anyone else had the same problem?

Melv...for me, every time there is a high performance car, tailgating me on the Motorway, its normally a BMW !

I followed a BMW that actually used the indicators a few weeks back, that makes a first!

Not for me - the last bit of tailgating from yesterday was a middle aged woman in a silver vauxhall agila.

Eddie...they were probably faulty and stuck on permanently !

Yeah Beamer drivers are a mare, but the worst offender on motorways is the clown who changes lane just before indicating that they intend to do so. :))

My dad drove a Beamer he was ok. Drives an Audi for work he's not a problem in that...but in our own car....A Vectra he's a menace!

Maniacs! I'm a safe beamer driver myself!

Three near misses (or, more accurately, near hits) in a couple of weeks...it could be your poor driving, of course.

Black Range Rovers have become my personal enemy.

I can't think that I have ever attributed bad driving to the drivers of one make or model of car.

I can only guess that having a high performance car means that you like to drive quickly, and that brings you into varying degrees of conflict with other slower road users, but that is simply thinking out loud - I have no basis for it as a point.

No Melv, I regards myself a safe 50 year + accident free Beema Driver.

Aren't beamers called the hedgehog car?

Mercedes, Audi And BMW, the Highway Code does not apply, I thought everybody knew that. :-)

Oh, the envy showing in these posts

Not heard that about Audi drivers, Melv but have about beamer drivers......(heard it...not necessarily agreeing)
I wonder, if personality contributes to the choice of car....and maybe thoughtless or show offy folk choose the same type of car....?

Melv, I might be called that when I stop to assist the Blind to cross the road, to signal a Mother & Pram across the road, my answer to them behind, "Wait"
