I've become used to a lot of things on the road, but this really surprised me today. Thankfully I only witnessed it, rather than being part of it!
Went out with the UNI club to Yarmouth, on the way back. We get overtaken by a learner (fine), then by the car behind them (fine). The car behind then decides to overtake the learner.
Now, this would have been fine and I can understand the frustration of being stuck behind a learner (both as a driver and cyclist ).
However, there was a car coming towards the car and it was pretty obvious he wasn't going to get past and back in before the car coming towards him would get to him.
He carries on anyway, until the learner and car coming the other way both stop to let him squeeze through. From what I saw, the space must have only just been wide enough.
Not sure what on earth was going through his mind as he did this.
