Another of those ... why? moments.
Rolling towards the back of a small queue of stationary cars waiting their turn to go though a narrow rail bridge and a women in a blue BMW 3 series insists on trying to quickly 'nip around' me and into the gap between me and the car in front, only she can't as it wasn't big enough to start with and certainly isn't now that I have rolled forwards another yard or two. This means she stopped with the nose of her car behind the queue and arse ends sticking out over the white line and so on the other carriageway.
I was able to brake, swing round behind her and overtake while she sat in the queue and I continued on my way.
No harm done, no real hassle, but just WHY?
