Came across this overtake the other day. As soon as the truck came into my view it was in the outside lane.
I wonder how long it had been like this..... I'd really like to know what was going on in the Audi drivers head. It's not even like it was a Honda Jazz, it was a spanking new Q7.

On the phone or texting! BUT if you want to dawdle along at 52/3 where does it say you cant I wonder how long it had been like this..... I'd really like to know what was going on in the Audi drivers head. It's not even like it was a Honda Jazz, it was a spanking new Q7.

But if you did then you would probably be pulled for dangerous driving, as it clearly would be.
You could equally be stopped at 52/3 for inconsiderate driving, however that would involve subjective judgement and could end up in a your word against theirs situation.
OTOH, they could introduce a minimum limit (for cars only of course), which would remove this grey area, as the police would have a clear-cut mechanism for prosecuting you, as they do with the normal maximum speed limits
But, besides the obvious problems a minimum limit would cause (heavy traffic, breakdowns etc), how would they set the limit?
They could set the limit to 60mph, which would have all the self-righteous sanctimonious p
s amongst us venting their spleen over anyone doing 52/3 for breaking the limits, just as they do with the maximum limits.If they set the limit to 50mph, those same self-righteous p
s would probably see nothing wrong with doing 52/3mph themselves, even though doing so would bring us back to square one as far as this issue goes.There's a lesson in there somewhere, I think

After the 'event' what would the biker be defending himself against?
The guy getting in his face, telling him to take his helmet off so he can give him a beating, having just tried to run him down? I don't think a solicitor would have any trouble at all selling that.Smacking the wing mirror may not mark him out as productive member of society but it's certainly no licence to use your car as a weapon and run him down. Who knows what the guy's going to do once he gets out of his car?
They're both a pair of bellends, and I can see how each one is pissed off, but if you t
tted someone that had just deliberately used their car to run you down, a defence of self-defence would quite readily be accepted by most judges IMO.4x4Tyke said:

That video is awesome. So many genuine wtaf moments, brilliant.Europa1 said:
Some people do seem to be more willing to blatantly take the piss out of red lights at temporary traffic lights than at permanent traffic lights. Is it because the interval between red at one light/green at the other seems to be longer?
It's probably cos half the time they're completely unnecessary CoolHands said:

It's probably cos half the time they're completely unnecessary Next time I encounter this situation, the gap before oncoming traffic starts again was quite long. So, it is quite safe to go through on red, as long as you go much faster than the speed limit
