filtering on the A40, in hindsight not really concertrating and thinking more about work.. anyway, filtering past a a truck (the tipper truck type ones) on a bend in between lane 2 -3. the traffic in lane 2 is going quicker than 3 and then suddenly realise i'm filtering between 2 tipper trucks on a bend and that one of them is running wide out of his lane.....

very luckily i didn't grab a handfull of front brake and end up under the wheels, but slowly eased off and a bit of back brake and let them both trundle past..

defo brown pants moment.
i learnt not filter when only half concentrating and to fully look ahead and work out what you might be filtering past as the traffic moves.
