I was charging downhill into Chester le Street earlier today when a woman drove her car out of a side street on the opposite side of the road, right in front of me. If I hadn't managed to brake hard I'd have been right into her. I yelled "idiot!" and pulled into the side of the road. Was going to take her registration but I couldn't find my notebook. Started to get back on my bike and blow me down, she comes back up the road, stops on the opposite side and runs across to me. I thought I was going to get some aggro, but she was incredibly contrite and couldn't apologise enough, asking if I was ok etc.. As is usual, she was concentrating on the cars she could see and completely missed me and the bike. Wish every driver was as good about it.
