Get finished work early as I heard traffic was bad in Aberdeen. I work 13 miles North of Aberdeen and live 10 miles south, so it takes me an hour to get home roughly. Traffic was bad, but I wasn't prepared for anything THIS bad. An hour and a half and I still wasn't even halfway home and was getting pretty impatient. It's more annoying when you see people skipping the queues and you have been waiting 30 minutes and moved 20 car lengths...
So we get to the city centre and then I go down the usual side street. There is a bus with a taxi behind it right in front of me. So the bus pulls in to pick up passengers. There is traffic on the RHS but enough room in the middle for a car to pass. So I expect the taxi to pass the bus, but he doesn't. The whole situation of waiting 2 hours and 10 minutes was getting to me and I just wanted home. There WAS enough room for a car to pass but as I indicated and pulled out I scuffed the rear corner of his bumper.
He has my details now and I felt so stupid and pissed off. I didn't check the damage on my car til I got home - it's like a knife has cut right down the middle of my bump strip and left a deep gash. On the actual door panel there is also a gash but slightly lighter. Both are about 50cm long.
Now my insurance will go up and I've got to pay for the damage to my car
