I was waiting it traffic yesterday on a narrow road, cars parked on the right and all traffic pulled over to the left so as not to block the road...
The car in front is either parked or slow to move, but I can't get round them as there's nowhere to go, I look round and see the traffic start to move so I edge forward to get a better view around that car and this stupid bint comes from behind overtaking the queue (obviously thinking we're all parked) and hits the side of my car!!! :mad:
Now she's obviously trying to claim it's my fault!
Clearly got her licence from a box of Frostie's!

Did you indicate to say you were overtaking the car ahead of you?0
-
As you haven't mentioned it in your rant, it sounds like you didn't check your mirror or give a signal!0
-
When you say "edged forward", shouldn't that be "edged out" to get a better look, in which case, as above why didn't you check your mirrors first?0

She should not have been overtaking, I was not parked, I was not overtaking, I was in the road and in a queue approaching a busy junction!“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

So you just pulled out without checking or giving a signal then!
Given this, why do you think you need to rant here about "stupid" licence holders?0 -

I don't understand now.
You were in a queue and an overtaking car hit you.
Did she swerve into you to avoid something else?0 -
We (the traffic) started to move, she didn't have the space to overtake and hit my car.... What could be more simple?
Whatever, got the stupid cow on my onboard video camera anyway....“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

So she tried to overtake you, but the gap between the offside of your car and the cars parked on the other side of the road wasn't wide enough and she hit your car? Were you turning right??"You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0

50 50 at best - you moved off without checking it was safe to do so0 -
Its not so simple if you moved your car to the right at all because then it is classed as you 'pulling out' in which case you will be responsible for not checking.Strider590 wrote: »We (the traffic) started to move, she didn't have the space to overtake and hit my car.... What could be more simple?
