Absolutely feckin ragin'

I haven't been on for a little while but thought I would share todays events with you ( to make your day feel a little better I hope ).
At about 11.20 I was heading northbound on the A1 between the a690 and Chester-Le-Street turn off, I was progressing in the fast lane at about 65-70 keeping up with traffic. The 2 lane carriageway changed to 3 lanes and the VW Passat in front of me moved to the middle lane and I overtook. A second later this guy pulls back out and starts 'tailgating' me, Now bear in mind I had remained approximately 30 feet behind him in the moments earlier. He then proceeds to move back to the middle lane and starts accelerating to attempt to 'undertake' me. I closed the gap ahead to avoid this and he backed off and then moved in behind me again. The road then returned to 2 lanes and again this guy pulls across behind me and begins to try and undertake. However on this occasion he does not wait until he gets past us, he simply collides with my nearside front and almost forced me off the motorway. I respond by steering into him until he was at an angle (tyres squeeling) and I hit my brakes almost sending him into an oppoisite spin. I check the traffic behind and pull over to the hard shoulder expecting him to do the same, but no he guns it and takes off ducking and weaving through traffic with me by now in pursuit mode and my missus calling the police. We continue at speeds in excess of 110-120 mph with medium traffic with my missus giving the police a commentary while I try to keep him insight without involving any innocent motorists in this madness. He heads toward a slip road but I keep up and he takes to the hard shoulder ( again at over 100mph ). He continues at this speed down the slip road and runs 3 sets of red lights on a roundabout and disappears.
Stolen car ?? I hear you mutter
Drugs ?? possibly
Drunk ?? Maybe
Alas no it is a lease car ( everyone moan together ), now I watch police shows and lease cars are used by drug dealers so I wasn't feeling confident at this point as the car had no signs of a lease company on it.
The police attended at the roadside and I explained I suspected the guy had re joined the motorway heading northbound as I could not see him negotiating the roundabout at that speed so his only other option was to get back on the motorway.
Well the police traced the car to a National property management company but would not tell me who, the driver contacted the officer claiming he was the victim of a 'madman' and I had tried to run him off the road etc etc etc running for his life etc etc etc. He utterly denied the collision ever happened ( even though I saw the damage on his car ) and he was now in Cambridgeshire so the Durham Constabulary could not inspect his car for damage ( a distance of 250 miles through traffic in under 3 hours ????? )
I waited for the P.C to tell me they were sending officers from Cambridge to inspect his vehicle ????, NO cam the reply because Cambridgeshire police 'cant be bothered' to waste man hours verifying my claims.
Then came the best bit, because the other driver claims this was a road rage incident if I take it any further I could get charged with 'dangerous driving' etc etc etc.
So lads n lasses the moral of the story is simple, DRIVE LIKE A <beep> AND KILL WHO YOU WANT, JUST RUN FROM THE SCENE OF AN ACCIDENT AND COME UP WITH ROAD RAGE BULLSH!T AND IT WILL ALL GO AWAY.
So far my wheel arch if creased and scraped with his silver paint, my wheel is tw4tted and I hope dearly the steering arms etc etc are ok.
