Scary incident this afternoon.

On the way in to work this afternoon I had an encounter with someone that absolutely had to overtake me regardless of so many factors. I'm now going through the post-incident phase of considering the what ifs. Several other people stood a chance of being hurt by someone else's reaction to my presence on the road and that's a rather uncomfortable feeling.
I'll be reporting the incident to the police but I find that a fairly deflating process as well.

Mate you have no choice but to take that down to the police. That was about as bad as it gets!.....Try and see a traffic officer.. If they don't take this up I would be verry dissapointed in my colleagues.

That is a disgusting bit of driving, I certainly hope the local police do something about that.

Get that idiot off the road, those people on the zebra crossing were so lucky not too have been taken out. Chances are that driver isn't adverse to that kind off appalling behaviour, pound to a penny he already has points on his license. Report him ASAP.

Please keep us up updated on this. I would love to be given the news that this driver has been prosecuted, and preferably relieved of his license. Could've been really nasty for the peds.

+1 on all counts. That needs a prosecution, awful.

I would expect that Roadsafe might well choose to prosecute that. They are all or nearly all traffic officers, usually with motorcycle experience.

I just love Roadsafe - really professional unit, and they are so easy to report to online. Going down to a police station can sometimes be a very time consuming process.
