Scary stuff when you think the outcome could have been much different.
I wonder if it’s the same Merc driver that posted that video the other day?
And, why did the woman driver stay in the outside line? There was obviously a big enough gap in the left lane for her to pull in, if the Merc could undertake her.
One day one of those type of zb’s will meet the type of other zb who’ll accidentally have left the car in gear and then floor the throttle by mistake when the zb is near the car.

He must of had a reason to react in that way.The police are aware of red mist.A fit of anger where go blank and can not recall the chain of events.She does not mention why she peed him off.
Newspaper always say a truck was thundering through and was speeding.How do they know it was speeding.Another headline is trundling.Or killer monster truck.Amateurs.
Sorry but I think there is a run up to why the male acted like that, suspect there is more to this then meets the eye.
I was driving along the A74 and some women was doing 50mph in the middle lane. Now I am thinking should I undertake her or stay in lane one, but an artic came long and flashed hiss head lights and did the following very close behind her until she got the message.

What does it matter? Just undertake them & leave then to it, what if it was your mother or father who aren’t as pro at driving as you?
Before anyone says don’t let them drive, there’s quite a gulf between pootling in the middle lane without a care in the world & being dangerous.
I hate all this WTF are you doing bullying lark, if they aren’t obstructing you, let them get on with it.
In think you need to re-read my post. I didn’t do any of the “bullying” I was in lane 1 still doing the same speed.
Oh, as your so good at everything, don’t you think undertaking could be a tad dangerous? might scare the crap out of them when they see a truck coming down the inside

Sod them, if you have been in lane 1 all the time before coming up to the slower vehicle in lane 2 and pass them on the inside, it isn’t undertaking, it’s only undertaking if you change lanes to do it!

Back to the original post, regardless of what caused the merc driver to stop, they could still of caused a massive crash and then simply drove off leaving the carnage behind them
i had a bad one on friday 3 girls in a car from gloucester to forrest of dean deciding to play chicken with , doing 30 and under in a 50 to start with constantly blowing theis horns , a cop overtook me almost went into her obvisouly thought no one was infront , so i backed let them get on with it until they decided to slam the brakes on in a 30 zone which resulted in me nearly slamming into them!!!
sped up not realising there was traffic lights up front again slammed their brakes so i got out well their faces were innocent what we done so banged on the window shouted so on …
anyway all of a suddeen this guy wips out and take a photos after trhe incident so i questioned him told him what went on as he was on one later to be told his daughter was in the passenger seat ~!!!
he then told me his father and brother were hgv drivers
well it all calmed down with he apogised and id advised him to have a talk to her about it as if was 100% concentrated i have no doubt someone else would have ended flatting in the car plus also i said she got lightly now im not right in the head but no where to stop so dont i told him his face went white…
while writing this im now angry and my blood pressure is up …
Oscarzeus. I know it is hard but it is best to get away from.getting in that situation before the red mist of anger builds up.I get the dive bombers that over take to dive bomb inches from the front of the cab to exit the junction.
When they do this, there is no traffic behind. I swear it is new sport as it is all over the Uk and mostly on the M5.

RANT OVER…
I know you are new to the forum but this doesn’t make sense. It’s either very badly described or never happened. I’m thinking why would a cop not get involved once you get out of the vehicle to remonstrate? How many people were in the car because it looks like some passengers have tele-ported in or had a gender realignment so my vote is it never happened.
