Met an absolute star this morning. Nothing to do with me but I was there to witness it.
I was waiting behind a tractor that was trimming the hedge on the side of a narrow road just going west out of Hounslow. There was another car in front of me waiting for there to be a break in the oncoming traffic. As we begin to overtake, some hotshot decides to overtake both of us at the same time. (overtaking a car that is currently overtaking a tractor is not the smartest of moves). During all of this, there's a massive UPS truck barreling towards us. I swear there it must have been a matter of centimeters before things could have been ugly.
Manage to pass the guy waiting at the lights and as I was waiting to turn right, the shit-fiddler undercut me super close cutting of more oncoming traffic causing them to slam their brakes on. :/
I give up on life...
