Franglais:
Ive just watched the video o in the Mail link, dunno which video some of the others here saw? I saw a dashcam of a truck, on a wet road, keeping up with, but a safe distance from a couple of cars. Another truck overtakes on double whites, and starts cutting in before its finished the overtake, no visible oncoming at this point. After prematurely cutting in (although there is a good gap there) he does another overtake, although he should be able to see the queuing traffic ahead. He re-enters the left lane again whilst alongside the black car.
I didn`t see a driver “cracking on” in an aware, competent, mode. I saw a video of someone who will keep his foot down without using his eyes or engaging his brain. Nothing wrong with a bit of speed when appropriate, but this is NOT an example of that.
It is simply bad driving, not at all good progressive driving.What happens after the 15 second mark is…summat else.
