I had a stupid %$"* almost wipe me out yesterday - passing another car coming down a sliproad thats turning from 2 lanes into one which then becomes the running lane of a 4 lane motorway . Rather than stay in the lane shes in she decided to cut me up just to get past the car then passes another car on the now inside lane before moving back into the inside lane to join a queue at the next junction . I did note the cup of coffee in her hand throughout the “manouvere” so I just put it in the "not awake yet but late for work " bin .
