This morning was odd, now that the ice/fog/smog has gone traffic seemed to be back on full-attack mode.
Politely pointed out to a chap busy maneuvering his way into the side of me, intent on moving forward an extra two meters in Dulwich school-run gridlock, that it might prove safer if he checked his mirrors and blind spot before squashing me. Looked at me like I was mad, garbled response about 'not having eyes in the back of my head' – agreed, but if you TURN YOUR HEAD, you can in fact SEE BEHIND YOU... FFS.
Reminded me how pointless it is moaning at drivers.
