Is it just old people that dont like being overtaken??

I'd say three quarters of the people I overtake don't like it - probably because my loud, vile exhaust pisses them off as I rag the fucking nads off it right by their window. This - correctly - gets interpreted as aggressive, hooliganistic and pointless. The reason I know they don't like it is because I feel them accelerate - but I've been planning my move from before they even knew I was anywhere near them, have already kicked down a gear or two in readiness to launch, and unless they're driving something pretty meaningful and have been alert enough to suss me hunting them down, it's never going to happen. Resistance is futile.

The rules say to be aware of other road users and be courteous.

Often I get abit pissed with people seeming to block me from overtaking but maybe they aren't doing on purpose.

Had one guy screaming fucking dickhead at me for an overtake after he caught up me while I was waiting at a junction, one guy in bolton didnt like me filtering past so he moved into the right turn lane then cut back in front of me dangerously..I kept a big nut zipped tied within reach incase somebody did a dangerous thing like that again.

When mad biker scum overtakes me I generally don't mind
as I'm usually contentedly humming along to Des o Connor and picking bits of wine gum out me dentures whilst staying a good 10% percent within the speed limit
However
I do flash angrily if I see a bit of a tater peeking out of the seat of their leathers and I assume it's one o them Rainpal riders, the dirty bastards.
Its filthy and unnatural is that, you could cause accidents showing off yer bizarre sexual fetishes on a public road
Stop it ok?

I'm a bit confused. The op objected to the old guy driving a Honda and allegedly being intolerant to bikers. He seems equally ageist and critical of non bikers. I'm not far short of 70 so apparently fit into the old fart group. I also ride one of the fastest road bikes and overtake whenever I can. No it's not the oldies who are solely to blame ( many of them were hooligans back in their day anyway!) - it's general road rage. We bikers piss some drivers off. Some cagers piss bikers off. Not sure which group I fit into. Don't care too much for pigeonholing, mind. Live and let live. Oh, and let me get to 60mph in 2.5 secs please!

I think that people are misreading this.

Flashing & hooting are signs of appreciation. They're saying: "I wish as was as cool as you, Dude."

At least, they are when they do it to me.

There can be no other explanation.
