Although this is obviously not the camera cars fault, I think there is an important lesson here for us all. The camera car is clearly not leaving a 2 second gap with the van in front, the van is filling his field of vision and the driver has no way of seeing the oncoming car. Had he left a 2 second gap, not only may he have see the car much earlier, he would have had more time to respond and he would not be next to the lorry but behind it with a good chance of pulling in un scathed. Thankfully nobody was hurt in this incident, but it could have been so much worse and despite the terrible driving of the oncoming vehicle it could have been totally avoided.
Saw this person today and i thought i was a gonna! He just rammed my rear and punched my nans arm :( Take HIM OFF RIGHT NOW Im scared to see them tommorow again
He was stopped in the middle of 2 lanes at a set of lights on a crossroads. His windows was down so i got as close as i could and said "You know your taking up the whole road there mate". He then stopped to make sure i went past him and was taking photographs of my car. So i then pulled over and followed him into Sainsburys to take a picture of him.
No i am not afraid to admit what happened. And i do not believe i was in the wrong for commenting on his awful driving in the first place. Which then led to the whole scenario.
