It does not look like a very safe strategy from the police to Tee Bone a car across 3 lanes of motorway traffic. Although the alternative of letting him blast along in wrong direction not much safer

You have to be bloody kidding me.

I'd assume the police car driver would have looked before putting himself in potential danger.

But some sh*t driving here.
A1075 Northbound, a couple of miles from Watton.
BMW 320i dawdling well below the speed limit. Then jumps a red light for roadworks as if in a hurry, but is met by oncoming traffic and has to move into the roadworks cones to let them through.
Skip to 60s into the video for the roadworks.

Who does he think he is? Damon Hill? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4znJFVTFd2Y
Later on the cameras were mounted in the helmets so looked where the rider looked
Early recorder was a GV-9E with flip up screen, later ones were GV-S50
We used to do stuff for the early tttish driver programs. Crimestoppers used to pay £50 for some footage.

Mark P is a grade A plonker - how to hold one's self up just to prove a point (a point that is questionable at best).
I think that's very gentle, what an absolute tosspot of the highest order...Muddle238 said:
He's not even "in the right", he's assumed priority before even reaching the obstruction, despite the fact another vehicle is already in the process of clearing said obstacle. In that scenario, upon arriving at the obstacle he must first allow oncoming vehicles that have already pulled out to clear the chicane to clear it, any further oncoming vehicles mustn't follow through like sheep. Once the chicane is clear, only then does the self entitled tt that is Mark P have priority. The fact he pulls out early and drives along the wrong side of the road to cause issues with traffic that A) he can clearly see and B) actually have priority at that point as they're in the chicane and he isn't, clearly shows just trying to make a point that is null and void. Given he appears to be in a 107/C1/Aygo, it appears to be a size compensation thing.
He's a prize one and in the wrong here. But what you have posted is not strictly true. The vehicle should give way to oncoming vehicles not solely vehicles already in the hazard. They should not cause oncoming vehicles to need to slow down. Same as any other give way. In this case, because he's special, Mark went offside; whereas if he stayed nearside the cars would have passed without incident.
