shocking driving
Discussion
Normally don't do this sort of stuff but have to vent my anger.
Witnessed today how group of cars decided to make Queen Street in Edinburgh their private racetrack in the middle of the afternoon in very busy traffic.
White Aventador, Blue R8 and Black Continental GT among other lesser cars accelerated quickly, changed lanes erratically overtaking other cars but most shocking was that blue R8 actually went wrong way round the traffic island overtaking whilst cars were stationary on the red light only to park in front of them next to Aventador so they could again accelerate off the traffic lights for whole 200m before next set of traffic lights at the Queen Street/Hanover St junction. Accident waiting to happen considering road surface condition on this street.
Followed them couple of cars back since the roundabout on top of Leith Walk and what I saw over that short distance was pretty shocking. Appreciate if you got a nice car and like to show off then feel free to do so in a safe environment not on busy road in the middle of the town putting other drivers at risk. I'm not saint when it comes to driving but this was something else. First time I've ever seen such behaviour in Edinburgh (obviously its "normal" in London in certain areas).
