That is unbelievable. The way she was driving it was inevitable that something like that would happen. The bloke (and the driver) is very lucky that he wasn't more seriously injured.

It makes you wonder if some people have got more than two brain cells to rub together...

Its a bit of video from a car which is keeping pace with a female driver. Her driving is obviously very impatient and she takes several risks, during the progress of the video.

One gamble she took, was to overtake another car by passing on the wrong side of some bollards, where someone happened to be crossing. Obviously they had looked for traffic the usual way, not expecting a car passing the wrong way around the bollards. She hit him at speed, he cartwheeled in the air and she just kept going because she was late for work. The car with the cam gave chase and eventually managed to stop her, where upon she denied everything.

Sometimes you can almost guarantee someone's driving is so incompetant and so urgent, you can see it is only a matter of time before they hit someone or something. The following driver was fairly easily keeping pace, yet seeming not to take any risks. This was one of those occaisions.

I was similarly overtaken by an impatient driver passing the wrong side of some bollards a few years ago. He just missed some school kids about to cross the road at the bollards, he would have hit them had one of the party not looked the 'wrong' way. Half a mile further on he had rolled it on a bend, hit a tree and it was on its roof in a field. I got to call the emergency services, to cut him out.

There are peeps on drugs, people who need medical help, people who are mentally ill, people who just don't think, people who have never passed a driving Test, drunks, etc etc. They are all out there on our roads. It'is up to us to look out for ourselves innit...

And always remember, the next car to come round the corner might be mine... lmho....
