    The speed the trucks are moving at in low visibility and ice is scary. Surprised at truck drivers most of whom would have a lot of miles under their belt and have probably seen it all.
    I've experienced similar driving in the US and Canada in snowy conditions, really scary stuff. Big trucks and buses seemed to be the worst offenders, actually.

    In fairness it's an accurate assessment that's a nasty little slip and he shouldn't be fcuking about there.

    Haven't posted here in a while thankfully. Another pedestrian crossing one here, doesn't look too bad but I think the camera lens makes it look better than it was in my eyes anyway. She was oblivious to the crossing anyway but she did say sorry.

    Many such places where opportunists take advantage. It would piss the one following the rules.

    A few metres of strategically placed kerbing would soon put an end to that little trick.

    More a case of someone ignoring a crossing point than someone in hi viz.

    This prat decided to overtake a lorry, even though they saw me when he/she started to pull out. (I had my dipped beams on!), most drivers would have pulled back in.
    Sorry about the sound, but i figured ye didn't want to hear the colorful language. :o



    On a plus, at least everyone had their dipped lights on!

    A case of a pedestrian in hi-vis discovering that said hi-vis does not necessarily make a (positive) difference to motorist behaviour.

    Hardly an argument at all. One driver asleep at the wheel does not mean anything.

    He ran out of road and then indicated left. The indicator wasn't on at first. I also recon he stopped on the hard shoulder and reversed.

    He left it way too late to move over safely, just how long is that lane?

    He indicated and turned at the same time and i thought i was going to be side swiped. There's plenty off time on that stretch of road to get into the correct lane.
