Well, actually, the sozzled old goat hit me.

Coming down a short cut rd onto the A127, another side road joins the side road I was on about 10yds before the 127.

As I approached him and his equally drunken chum, they just continue on their stupified way and end up in front of me.
I realise what's happening, hit the brakes, the ABS cuts in, I steer to the left, matey realises what he's done at last and steers to the right with a glancing but reasonably soft blow to the o/s wing.

I stop and he wobbles round the front of me and collapses in a heap by the l/h kerb with his mate laughing his arse off.

Phew, close one that.

Luckily the car is unmarked.
