If I was a combative type I would have lost the side of the car on the Aztec West roundabout in Bristol tonight. Numpty Transit driver decides not to turn right from the obviously marked turn right lane but instead exits straight ahead using my lane - but I was in it.

I half expected it so braked and avoided the back end of the van nicely. I did give a good horn warning as he started to change position too.

All done as far as I'm concerned. Nothing to get stressed about...

...but he couldn't keep the van in one lane all the way down the A38 to Filton. I began to suspect he may be drunk. Having wrestled with the idea of calling BiB he gave me the slip at a roundabout only to be held up in traffic just past the local nick. My decision was made when I saw a patrol car on the petrol garage forecourt.

Stopped rapidly, gave them reg etc, "Ah, white transit which just went by, we'll get on it".

Traffic doesn't move very fast that way in the evenings...

Hope they had fun smile
