Along the A170 today...busy fast road with some nasty pinch points that are just wide enought for a careful passs by a narrow car but nowhere near wide enough for anything wider...like a van.
Anyway...approaching one of these pinch points with a lot of traffic, I look pointedly behind me. As I am near the pinch point one WVM puts foot down and passes...not too close though but cutting it fine.
I indicate right with the flat "palm out" to discourage a silly overtake but the instant response change in engine revs from a swift drop-down in gears tells me that he is going to barge through regardless, so I ease off and pull right in, a few feet from the pinch pont and feel the draught from the long wheelbase van as it flies through at stupidly close distance.
Now, I didn't have my cam on today so I couldn't get a reg. no, but thinking of writing to the company...only trouble is I'm not sure of the details.
It had a reflective yellow/red chevron pattern on the rear and the company may have some kind of acronym. I wonder if anyone can tell me the full details of the company involved?
The initials were in bold red lettering and I think were "P.O.L.I.C.E"
Anyone heard of them?
I was wondering if I ought to suggest that they have some kind of driver training....
