They accelerated at me

[justalittlerant]

Just a rant really.

2 lads in their car just accelerated towards me deliberately as I was crossing the road. I looked at them and they were openly laughing at me as they'd scared me. I'm pregnant and might be a bit more reactive than normal but it fucking annoyed me. Why should I have to feel unsafe for their amusement?

Awful. I hope you're feeling better. Were you near any CCTV?

You should report this to the police.

@Aquamarine1029 really? Do you think they would care?

Dangerous driving? Absolutely.

I think I would report it if that happened to me, yes. I'm really sorry. What jerks.

Report op. Even if just to get it off your chest ... crazy behaviour. Hope you're ok

This has happened to me before, more than once. I always stop dead, turn, and give them a death stare until they pack it the fuck in.

I refuse to be intimidated.

This happened to me a few years ago in London. I was so shocked at the time that I didn't report it. I hope it never happens again, but I would absolutely report next time.

This is interesting... I never even thought to report it

I guess I can't imagine what the police would do? I don't have a number plate or anything. There might be cctv I guess

Also, I flipped them the bird and that would be funny to see on cctv!

I've had this a few times as well. It amuses the brainless to frighten females.

I'd report too. Nothing to lose.

Sorry this happened to you OP

If you can give a general description of the car, make and colour, and where and when the incident took place, the police can run checks on cameras in the area

Thanks for your input everyone. I am going to report it.
