Had a very scary oh shit moment on the way back from Bernie's on Saturday night. Going down Knight's Hill with Simon, who is about 20ft in front of me. A pick up truck passes me closely going pretty much twice the speed limit. He then spots Simon and presses the brakes hard but loses control of the truck which, as a result, starts veering towards Simon. He managed to gain control of it again and sped off. Don't think Simon realises the full horror that I witnessed, he only heard the ridiculous screeching of the brakes.
