yes it was - i thought that might be obvious given that i was involved in an accident with a mondeo on the queen's highway.....
explanations and mitigation: well, he was driving at 10 - 15mph approx 6" from the kerb, leaving a 5' gap between his OS and the centre line. no side roads to the right, nowhere to go but straight on (or into me of course). come on, be honest, in that situation who wouldn't overtake?
if he hadn't suddenly hit the nitrous button, the whole manouvre would have been over and done with a long way before the bend became a factor.
however, hands up, it was a risky manouvre which i was lucky to get away with - but hey, "let he who is without sin etc etc"
and anyone that continues to flame me in a patronising, sanctimonious manner must forthwith sell their ducati and buy a BMW
