This morning as I stopped for an amber traffic light, the builders van close behind me changed lane and overtook me passing through the now red light. As he crossed the junction at way over the 30 limit he had an extremely near miss with a car which had moved off rapidly at the first sign of his amber light. At least the van stopped for the next red light, and was still there when I arrived, hopefully inspecting the brown stains.

This morning going through Glasgow on Ballater St, I was behind a marked police Focus RS which went through the lights on amber. I stopped but the car in the other lane went through the lights, very blatantly on red, then I could see him standing on the brakes as he realised that the car he was rapidly approaching was a police car.

So, crashed a red light, never saw the full battenburged police car...mmm , something tells me he is not the most careful or aware driver out there!

He'll have been from Glespin Bobby. Banjo on the back seat?

Changed lane and overtook you?

A good job it wasn't a big wagon moving off rapidly and clobbered the van.

Live and learn.:)
