Pulling away in stop start traffic, the transit van behind ploughed into me.
I was in shock trying to collect my thoughts when my driver door was pulled open and the driver of the other vehicle stuck his head in my vehicle and shouted " what are you doing?" I answered "you ran into me!" He started yelling, I cannot remember what but I was scared so I pulled the door shut, he fought with me but I managed to get it closed enough to catch and lock it - not completely because the 'door open' siren was going off although it took me a few second to realise what it was.
He went back to his vehicle and I could just about see him in the rear view gesticulating and yelling.
He came back another two times trying to open my door, banging on the window and yelling through the glass trying to get me to admit fault.
I had called the police and as soon as the traffic police arrived he stopped the ott behaviour but still strutted up and down the hard shoulder yelling down his mobile phone.
The traffic police, my insurers and a third party no win no fee type set up have said they can see no fault on my part so my question is this...
After being scared, upset, and now bloody angry I now want to 'do' this sexist bastard as I am quite sure he would not have behaved like that had I been a male driver.
How do I get some justice against him?
I am going to contact the police tomorrow to ask their opinion as well as Enterprise, the owners of the vehicle that hit me.
Can anyone offer any further thoughts. I hate the sexism of it. He should not get away with behaving like that towards a lone female driver he had run into the back of.
