Indeed. I'm not sure if you are talking about the correct clip or person. feel free to point out where I even remotely suggested that I was in danger in this incident. In fact I go out my way to suggest I had it covered.Team Fiwip said:Your not sure then?
magnatom said:Safety
I used to take the correct line at this roundabout. It caused me bother. Following cars cut over this almost every time and I had a couple of occasions where that almost brought me into conflict with the following car (despite me obviously taking that exit). I need to slow considerably to go around the roundabout. Not a problem. However, the following cars are generally impatient here and would try and would continue over, faster than me. This was even worse in the wet and ice. So I decided that, although it might not be to the letter of the law, it was generally safer for me.

There is a song this reminds me of....it goes something like this....
'You're so vain, you probably think this song........'
dondare said:Perhaps you should admit to a mistake and apologize to Lee.
Isn't it a bit "off" to publish an error after the driver apologized? (Just thinking out loud, here.)
rh100 said:Ah right, I understand, thanks.

magnatom said:Apologise to Lee about what? Friendly banter?
With regards to the driver I am actually posting this in a positive way, i.e. saying thanks to him. As I've suggested, we all make mistakes, and this was just a mistake on his part. What I am congratulating him about is his willingness to apologise. If anything, this to me is the sign of a good driver.

I think you rather missed the point!
Team Fiwip said:My apologies, its not the first time I’ve missed the point of a drama queen.
... which proves the point of the OP - it's good to recognize a mistake and to apologizeTeam Fiwip said:My apologies, its not the first time I’ve missed the point of a drama queen.
