Driving back to the office from our distribution centre today, round a bend that narrows approaching a railway bridge with no footpath under it. (By Hadricks Mill in Newcastle for those that know the area)
About 100 metres ahead I see chav no.1 on his bike heading toward the bridge while trying in a very unstable style to push another bike alongside him.
I get closer to the bridge giving him plenty space when chav no.2 on his bike shoots out of the side street/lane trying to catch up with his mate...
They meet...literally, and crumble into a pile in the middle of the lane just after going under the bridge and I'm 3 car lengths back.
I hit the brakes and glimpse in my rear view to see WVM looming toward my rear screen.
I slammed my head back into the headrest to avoid whiplash but thankfully he stopped AN INCH from my bumper.
What was WVM not seeing, he couldn't have not seen what went on ahead of me!
Anyway, I drove round said Chavs shouting out the window that they'd get themselves killed but not realising until I'd turned off that they had probably nicked he 3rd bike!?
