Please report dangerous drivers to the police - Roadsafe. Report to plod, not just whinge here.

Normally I wouldn't bother posting up the shitty driving I see every day as I would never get any work done, but last night was something special.

First of all a massive fuck you to the driving instructor who seemed to think it was ok for his pupil to creep up alongside me and squeeze me into parked cars as I was coming up to stationary traffic at lights and signalling right so I could filter up the outside. I wouldn't normally get too wound up as this sort of thing happens all the time, but when it's a professional "advanced" driver who is responsible for teaching others it really pisses me off.

I'm still annoyed with myself that I didn't make a note of the driving school to put in a complaint, as he seemed to think there was nothing wrong when I called him out on it. I did tell the pupil she should get a different driving instructor before I rode off so I'd like to hope that's given her something to think about. Doubt it though.

That was followed by a near death experience as a twat doing about 40 in the opposite direction turned right across my path, missing me by just a couple of inches. I like to think I ride pretty defensively and most of the shitty driving I see on the roads I can take measures to avoid but this was completely out of the blue, I didn't even have time to react and hit the brakes. The only thing that stopped me being wiped out was the fact that he was actually cutting the corner. He came to a stop and looked genuinely concerned after I shouted at him so I assume he just didn't see me (despite the huge bright flashing front lights). I didn't bother stopping and conversing with him as my blood was boiling and I didn't want to end up saying or doing anything I might immediately regret...
