Great start to the week...not

So far in two days i've had 4 near crashes but one of them really pee'd me off.

Monday:

Coming home from work, doing 70 down a country lane i know and had done in the morning, start cornering and as i enter, notice a big old patch of gravel just ahead, try to avoid and end up clipping it, bikes slids a good few feet before re gripping and almost bucking me off while i cling on for dear life.
Then while already in a $*** that was close mood, i was on the motorway when a woman nearly turned into. Now i am thinking how can she not see or hear me so i decide to go a bit slower and look at her.

SHE WAS READING A F***ING BOOK ON HER STEERING WHEEL

Who does that, seriously, doing 85mph on the motorway reading a book.

Tuesday:

The normal white van man tries to kill me and rear wheel steps out while cornering.

What is trying to kill me this week?

Should've noted her reg and reported her, she will injure somebody, not if, when.

I have days when I think it's me attracting issues as I'll have 4 or 5 things like people pulling out, drifting over white lines down country lanes etc.

I wish I had my camera on all the time, I'd get a few people prosecuted I'm sure.

i was tempted to but then thought, i have no evidence apart for4m my word, tempted to get a helmet cam

Afaik she would get a letter which might make her think about not doing it again if someone has reported her, worth a try.

Oh dear...
The joys of commuting.

Have a hug.

Had a people carrier on the motorway move into my lane while i was along side missed me by an inch, but what annoyed me more was that it was full of young kids and the driver was reading a book on the steering wheel Some people just have no idea.

Makes you wonder if the police riders see this sort of stuff regularly too.

Reading a book!! OMG I can understand people being tempted to use the phone or text but reading a book??? Shocking!

***on this particular occasion I am referring to books...however signs and the road are applicable for some...
