I had a guy do that to me on the A64 earlier this year  ::)

All because I had got into lane two before him  ;D

The Prat mantle seems to have moved over to Audi drivers!
Why do they feel that THEIR journey are more important than anyone else's - is this another manifestation of the small penis syndrome?

I've put dash cams in all our cars, I just like to sit and play re-runs on the daily attempts on my life......usually averaging one attempt every five miles :o

Should be shot in front of his family. As should the car he overtook which insisted on sitting in lane three for no good reason.  ::)

There was a car in the middle lane that the car in front was just about to overtake as the self-abuser overtook on the central reservation.  ;)

That vid wasn't taken by a dashcam as someone zoomed in before the self-abusers 'manoeuvre'!  Wonder why?  Maybe it's a set up?  :-\

Therin lies a problem. drivers sitting in the outside lane while the middle, or even nearside ones, are free, tend to make impatient tw*ts do this sort of thing. The guy in front, careless, the one behind, maniac. If it hadn,t been for dash cam, would he have been caught at all? :-\

There was also the sound of kids chatting and the dishes being washed or something. So........the sd card from his camera was playing on his computer and he was filming it on his phone/tablet to upload.
There goes another conspiracy theory.  ::)

I am actually VERY impressed. I mean it was stupid, but he actually did it without crashing.  Might I suggest that he's got some skill, and should probably be using it on a race circuit.

That the person he was overtaking could have moved over, is also relevant. I think he should have had a talking to about his failure to move over.

If he had passed me like that, I would have seriously considered tapping his rear quarter :-X

Tempting though it would have there was far too much traffic on the road for that, quite a few innocents could have been caught up in the aftermath.

I agree with you, prats like that could do with a big accident, preferably fatal, I just wouldn`t want to put anyone else at risk......or get caught  :-X

Your lane discipline is atrocious, and with those lights and yellow jacket the cyclist should have been visible from the otherside of the junction :-X
