I hadn't realised that this sort of thing went on at Supermeets. I agree with DB. 100%
I would have hoped that the members here were sensible enough not to behave like the Friday night max power boys at the local retail park.

Avoidable accidents such as:
- pulling out of junctions before the car in front has moved
- crossing the lanes on a blind bend / hills
- observing possibilities of other cars adjoining the highway
- checking behind/side before overtaking
- hitting the brakes mid-bend
- "driving in hope and forgetting that on these roads traffic comes from the opposite direction with total closing speeds of over 120mph and does not always stay on their own side of the road" ... those sort of impacts can "sting" a bit the following morning.
