I was out with a pupil last night (20\/08\/08 actually\u00a0– I’ve been messing with the blog software)\u00a0and we were driving in the left lane of a two lane road. Our lane became a bus lane after about 500 metres and I’d pointed out to the pupil that she should plan ahead because there were parked cars in it. Meanwhile I was watching this guy in a people-carrier\u00a0who had been following us about 3 car lengths behind for the last quarter of a mile. As\u00a0my pupil approached the bus lane merge I could see this idiot speed up just enough to prevent her from moving out.\u00a0He had to break the speed limit to do it, since\u00a0my pupil was doing exactly 30mph, but then he just\u00a0sat alongside us. My pupil was obviously flustered and the instant the car twitched (obviously, I wasn’t going to let her have an accident)\u00a0he sounded his horn. You could almost see the look of joy on his face – similar to what it must be like if you win the lottery.\u00a0It was probably the highlight of his whole week sounding that horn at\u00a0a learner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
