I’m sure this has been discussed many times....two very recent incidents brought this into focus.
A few days ago driving the A65 to a hospital appointment a distracted oncoming taxi driver ( Craven Taxis) strayed onto my side of the road. Emergency braking avoided a head on ( thank F there was no one behind. Didn’t have time to look). Obviously distracted and knowing the time/taxi company he was on his way to pick up local school kids. If it wasn’t for my hospital appointment I’d have turned round and given him a mouthful as I know where they park.
A day earlier another emergency stop on the A65 as a biker misjudged my speed, I was travelling at the NSL as he overtook the KL bus on double solids.
Should either of those circumstances have turned out for the worse a dash cam would have been incredibly helpful, should there have been alternate allegations.
