    Is that really from the same dashcam footage? Doesn't look anything like the location from the original pic and also doesn't look like a head on shot you'd get from the windscreen.

    I joined youtube this morning and uploaded the footage for all to see. I've come here to post the link but this comment:
    You've confused support with bait. It got the photo if not the video.

    has made me change my mind. So you'll never know for sure if I made it all up for the fun of it. But I got the answer I came on here for, so that's all I care about.

    Typical behaviour we've seen before.

    The other car should wait. They didnt. So you either crash or move. is it worth your life to make a point about priorities?

    Pretty much what I was going to say but said better than I would have!

    OP could of course slow down - yes, the other car should maybe have seen the litter pickers but either didnt see them, or didnt care. You did see them and did care, so be the bigger person and do what is needed.

    Thanks for advising me to do what I already did.

    Which is why I didn't crash into the car that overtook the lorry and didn't kill the litter pickers.

    Again though. Do you really need advice not to have a 120mph crash?

    By the way did a quick search. No videos were uploaded to YouTube today that responded to the searches "wrong side overtake, my side overtake, close call overtake, wrong side litter pickers or near miss litter pickers"
