GJ60 HBEOvertaking on crossroads2015-12-09 17:41:58
4x4 overtaking right on a 4 way crossroads junction at Wrestlingworth in a residential area with a blind vision drop away ahead. Also his front right bulb dip light was not working, only side light - madness!
Caught on camera driving erratically around Sittingbourne - failing to give way, making sharp turns bullying oncoming road users to get past and speeding to only get stuck turning right.
Individual hit my car and fleed without leaving a note. Thanks to a witness who spotted this I have reported driver to police for fleeing the scene of an accident.
I am looking for the owner of vehicle reg YS13 KZH (Mitsubishi) as I owe him an apology. Long story short, my manager insisted we cut a queue at the channel tunnel an he (quite rightly) took offence to this - made no better by my manager arguing that we paid more for our ticket so should be in front (we had flexi pass).. disgraceful. I hope this finds him as I am running out of options.
This person just came flying down the road from Lydd to new Romney, over taking two learner cars, making one of them break suddenly, as there wasn't enough room for them to get past before an oncoming car! They should be ashamed.
This driver was hogging the overtaking lane while chatting with his lady friend who was relaxing on the passenger seat. His concentration was not on the road at all but on the lady only briefly turning to his front to make sure he is not bumping anywhere. After I overtook him in the wrong lane, he started to show off to his lady friend and harass me by overtaking again, cutting me across and all sorts of thing. If anything, I was trying to reach my learning disabled patient who was in psychiatric distress. We often face parking fines and some speeding fines as wells as jerks like these trying to reach the patients quickly. I really want to get this message across to him, that some things are more important.
Met you a few times it appears in Faversham down London Road you have a bit of speeding problem for a 30 mph.
More so because you keep braking for the camera next to the school! try just staying within the 30mph limit (yes limit) in future....saves you ending up on here having been caught on camera.
Another driver who clearly struggles to drive....
Accelerated towards the rear of my vehicle at a set of lights coming overly close (and plus clearly struggles to follow the "Tyres and Tarmac rule")
Upon leaving the lights begins aggressively tailgating me and I naturally slow and pull in due to his inability to keep a safe following distance.
Once I did the complaint from the driver...."stop going at 20 odd mph". Surprisingly enough sunshine I was doing about 25/26 mph in what was a 30mph....so I MIGHT just be doing 20 odd (which was faintly amusing to myself). I doubt past a 30 mph limit with a speed camera you want to be doing 30 odd now?
I have a few suggestions on your driving to review idiot:
1) Learn what a speed limit is and the signs of how it works (you know the big circular signs with a big set of numbers in with a red circle on the our edge) generally made of reflective material so one can see them in all conditions. Additionally in a 30 mph as above I will be likely doing "20 odd" this really made my day idiot.
2) Learn how to progressively brake when you know you are going to have to stop (as above the lights were on red so it is not surprising you had to stop)
3) Linked to number 2 that you review your distance from the car in front to develop a safe distance for numerous reason (Tyres and Tarmac Rule - http://www.iam-bristol.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=65&Itemid=133) I know a lot struggle with this one...
4) Learn the 2 second rule which you should of learnt as a learner when following a car in front
5) Finally tone the anger down sunshine...it is not good for driving.
NB: You were caught on front and rear cameras so I also have a decent mugshot of you driving.....beyond just your numberplate.
Careful, great observations and quick thinking.
Well done on that controlled thought out emergency stop.
Much respect goes out to you Mr driver
