“A lorry drives into the left lane from a slip road and I’m forced to pull over into the fast lane. A loud horn. A red saloon is right behind me, flashing its lights. Where did he come from? I pull back into the slow lane, and he gesticulates at me as he drives past, water sloshing up onto my windscreen.”
― Miranda Rijks, I Want You Gone
