Tales from today's commute....

Well this one made me shout rather loudly...

Mild and fine riding, fewer cars than normal. Not looking forward to this afternoon's deluge.

Shush.... checks forecast and buys a boat.

Well the other morning I came around a bend in the road adjacent to Margam park in south Wales, and found myself eye to eye with a rather impressive large Stag in the middle of the road. Don't who was more shocked me or him.

As long as you were not caught on the horns of a dilemma for too long!

That's bad. Are you able to report stuff like this online? Do you ever get to hear the outcome?

Yes

I am fully confident that I will be told as follows in about 3 weeks' time, by Avon & Somerset Police..

"As a result of this report I can confirm a positive outcome in that the driver(s) identified in the submission(s) will receive either a warning letter, a fixed penalty or a prosecution.

We appreciate your time in making the submission and we review each one individually, thank you for helping to keep our roads safer.
Please note I am unable to provide any future information on the outcome of this submission."

I have no way of finding out which of the outcomes will apply here. From previous experience I would hope for more than a warning letter, but my confidence in the system is diminishing.

Have you ever seen the cars you've reported out on the roads and overtaking you again?
Did they give any extra space second time around?!

I certainly have, and yes, their driving is usually substantially improved. So that's nice to see.
