I drive that road every day and at similar speed (25-30mph). No idea wtf the coach driver was thinking!

ETA: I see some here are having a pop at the cam-car - that road is residential, 30mph limit (and the camera car was doing just under 30 on GPS so probably indicated 30 on the speedo) and it was 100% the fault of the Crawley Luxury Coaches driver. The CLC driver created the problem with a dangerous overtake in a stupid place.

Edited by Funk on Friday 7th October 15:30
I drive it regularly too, although the coach is an idiot the overtake would have been safely executed were it not for the car driver accelerating hard as soon as he was aware the coach was beside him. Both idiots. Any normal car driver would have slowed down, not sped up. The wrongs and rights don't matter once the situation has arisen you do what you can to resolve it safely, not make it worse.
Agreed, cam car pretty much accelerated and drove himself into the bus. I bet he'd been watching that bus in his mirror the entire time getting a hard-on at the idea f it making an overtake!

How to turn an unwise overtake into a potential disaster zone! The cammer can (and should!) be prosecuted using his own video against him?
Luxury coach?

not sure on that, but in fairness he did stop to help/assist. which is better than another ph who posted a crash (filmed) and drove off and then called me a keyboard warrior for questioning it.

To be fair that left lane is about to turn into an exit lane and almost everyone moves over really early for it. It's great if you're taking the exit it's seldom busy so you basically have a lane for yourself most of time, pretty annoying when staying on but they're only following the herd.

Cammers acceleration looked like panic attempt at getting out of way to me, and it was the lunatic bus driver who caused that panic.

Bus was legally entitled to travel maybe 3mph faster than it was before the overtake- so driver knew that his overtake would be suicidal unless either car slowed down, he substantially exceeded speed limit, or oncoming traffic took evasive action. He was not entitled to assume any of these- he appears to have assumed all of them.

Either way he needs to lose his job and license.
The fk is wrong with you?
Is that actually how you think, or are you trolling?

"Hey, I'm in an ever decreasing gap I created. Better accelerate into it, rather than hit the breaks and he'll fly right by."

Your saying that with some kind of mailce/sarcasm which means nothing to me.
Porches?
Maybe, I don't know, we arn't talking about Porches.
I presume they make the same fake "ooo look at me" exhaust noises...eg. Mini Cooper S, F type etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

Why make comments like that?

Regarding the guy thrashing the M2 around the streets, I hope he has his license removed soon before he injures someone. The tragic thing is, he has a lot of support and people are actually PAYING him to drive like that. Disgusting. Talks like a too.

No. Porsches do not use fake exhaust played through speakers. The use a resonator in the exhaust, all cars have resonance in the exhaust, Porsche just go further than others to tune it.

Porsche have been using fake ecu controlled exhaust farts for years too.

At least as far back as the 987 and likely before.

Edit: fake ecu controlled farts have nothing to do with the stereo system that's something else entirely
