Adam H at 6.18 deserves a mention, having the temerity to anticipate another driver's error, and not get all bothered about it. Very Ogmios.

Most odd, dont see them on other junctions along that road, or do you?
Curiously that junction doesn't have a particularly bad collision record. The B4150 junction is far more dangerous.

I can’t post links on my phone, but the recent Carwow video where Matt Watson is driving a yellow pick up truck from the States.

Might be a bit controversial but he appears to drive it to the front of a petrol station forecourt, reverse in front of someone already at the pump and then proceeds to put 180 litres in while faffing about on camera. All while clearly the couple who’ve been boxed in by Matt are clearly getting pretty fed up.

Not sure if it was staged or not but appears to be a pretty dick move IMO. Clearly annoying other members of public and appearing to give zero sts about anyone else, but that does seem to be his style; how many times does he not give a st about a car he’s reviewing by trashing the boot lip by aggressively dragging suitcases into it to demonstrate the load lip, or by throwing a load cover on the ground if he can’t find somewhere to put it. Makes him a bit of a dick IMO.

He always seems like an entitled bellend, none of that is really surprising.

It's a layout that's pretty much guaranteed to result in conflict, I agree (by the BP garage/shops)

The sheer cackhanded carelessness on display is irksome yet somehow he seems quite likeable - from a distance.

The Transit behind the couple could simply have reversed to let them out as there wasn't anyone behind him. He could then have also filled up. No idea why the Transit driver decided to pull up right to the back of the car in the middle and box them in so tight.

Whilst they did get boxed in, it seems like perhaps honking and wildly gesticulating from inside your car may not be the very best way to achieve what you want.

That had a vibe of the old new top gear about it. All very childish and predictable.

And pulling in front of people at the the pumps is a dick move.

Spot on. Except for a complete lack of personality that made CHM bearable.

Lots of people do. Then they open their mouths and ruin it...
