Blatting through town dead on 30mph round a really tight blind left hand bend. There was a Numptie right on my boot though!

Anyway a car was coming the other way towards me requiring me to stop dead. This is fairly common on that bend so I know I can get the anchors on pretty quickly.

Stopping is never a problem with my sharp brakes .................. but the Clio behind struggled, I had to roll forwards a few feet as I heard the screeching of tyres to give the moron a bit more room.

Moral - Drive to the limit of what the driver behinds car can probably cope with!

That sickening feeling of someone screeching towards you is unpleasant.
