So there I am driving back from yesterday evening's American Football game at Wembley; it's approaching half-past-midnight and it's been a pretty good trip - the motorways have been OK, and not much traffic.
So I turn right at the Rising Brook lights onto Rickerscote Road, heading for Baswich, drive over the railway bridge and see a car's headlights ahead of me, strangely on my side of the road, which caused me to take my foot off the gas. I then see this car continue towards me at speed, passing me on my right ..... followed a few seconds later by a police car in hot pursuit. The driver had obviously cut across the Silkmore Lane Fish Bar roundabout, meaning that had I been nearer to roundabout, I'd have probably been involved in a head-on and you'd have been watching it on the local news this morning. It fair scared the bejasus out of us, I can tell you.
Anyone else watch "Collision" last week?
