I was out of the house at 04:30 this morning and the roads were deserted. I had a lovely peaceful ride in watching the city wake up as I rode next to the river. It was a real treat, right up until the only car I saw on the whole journey overtook me at a pinch point going up a hill. There’s a traffic island and the lane is quite narrow. The driver laid on the horn and squeezed passed hardly slowing down, clipped the island and missed me by a few cm. What a cunt! They then started to pull into the side of the road in front of me. What an even bigger cunt!. I went down the side road behind them and along a few back streets to avoid them. A nice commute spoilt by a Vauxhall driving tool. And relax.
sounds shit. try not to let it ruin your day.
i always try and do a quick shoulder check when going through points like this (there are a couple of bad ones on my regular route) and 9 out of 10 times the approaching driver will slow down.
