I posted on 7th Feb about a crazy woman who almost had me off (my bike!!!
).
Today, the same woman (I think) almost demolished a traffic island, in almost the same place.
There I was, in Primary, doing just a bit under 20 mph, heading towards a pinch-point created by the traffic island. Car No 1 (rather lacking in consideration, but not grossly so) overtakes. This stupid, stupid cow, who is not fit to be on the road, pulled out and followed car No 1. But she couldn't see the TI, cos she was too close to the car in front. Car No 1 pulls in ok, to reveal to the the stupid cow that she's heading straight for a TI at 30 mph. Violent swerve and screech of brakes. Looks of astonishment from other road users. Cry of protest from me ( I wasn't, fortunately at any immediate risk).
I caught up with her at the TL's. I tried to attrack her attention, but, as on the previous occasion, she just sat there, clutching the steering wheel like a life-belt, and gazing fixedly through the windscreen.
That's twice in a couple of weeks I've seen this person drive in a way that could have resulted in injury or death to other road users. She seems to be quite unaware or indifferent to what she is doing.
She really needs to get out of her car, for the safety of the rest of us.
(reminds self to stick to strong primary other than when it's safe for me not to!!)
