I'm on my way home from work the other night, at about 8:40pm and theres a long, very wide stretch of road that is an NSL with a roundabout half way down for 2 country lanes to join on to it.
So i'm on my way down the 1st bit and half way along i have to slow down to 35MPh for someone in a silver Ford KA (this is in a 60), there were cars coming the other way so i just sat behind it.
Got to the roundabout still behind it but had to wait a sec because of someone not indicating but they turned off.
So i carry on & catch it up again a couple of seconds after coming off the roundabout, only 1 car coming the other way but its miles away.
I was in my dads old Volvo 940 which is a bit on the sluggish side but i thought i aint sitting at 35 the rest of the way so indicated & moved out to overtake.
As i passed the KA the driver floors it as if they were trying to keep level with me,
by the time i pulled in i was doing 70 (it takes an age for that volvo to hit 70) and the approaching car was bloody close, close enough for him to flash his lights at me to make sure i had seen him.
But then they dropped right back and another car ended up overtaking them behind me.
