    Hi I am new to this site so i will tell you a bit about me. I am the owner and full time instructor of a motorcycle training school and my wife is a driving instructor. The main reason for my joining this site is to ask advice on road traffic law. It would be useful to know a police officers view on roadrage, as we both suffer this on a daily basis.
