Things you don't see every day!

So there we were, driving down the road, pupil at the wheel...... "nothing usual there" I hear you say!

A car was coming towards us, indicating to turn left into a side road, at the same time as an elderly man was driving his mobility scooter across the same side road, but coming from our direction..... in fact, he was just getting to the other side of the road as this car was about to turn into the road. The woman in the car then decided to beep her horn at the gentleman, and I don't think it was in a courteous way!

Anyway, what was surprising was that this elderly man jumped out of his mobility scooter, waving his fists at the woman in the car, and started trotting (rather than running) down the road after her!

I did contemplate getting my pupil to do a turn in the road, so I could go back and see if the elderly man actually caught up with the impatient woman, but thought better of it.

But the one thing that I did find curious was, if the elderly man could jump out of his mobility scooter and pursue the woman driver by foot, does he really need the scooter in the first place?
