Going home last night at about 7ish, headed west along the Grosvenor Road (just after Claverton St) was in the prime position when some bellend overtook me with about 4 inches to spare (possibly undertaking the van in the other lane- I was too busy shouting obscenities/ trying not to die to fully see all the detail).
Lucky for me the motorcycle policeman at the side of the road (in a lay by), almost perfectly in line with me and the car, heard my shouts and after my attempts to catch up with the car began to flag (after a 30 rd 'sprint') I saw the blue flashing lights zoom up the road in the car's direction.
Ah the joy it brought me! After all this time seeing dick head road users doing idiotic and dangerous stuff on an almost daily basis there was a police bod there at just the right time and I got to see a crap driver get a telling off straight away.
Thank you Mr Policeman!
