The original submission notes: “Couldn’t work out for the life of me why this car was weaving so much at only at 35-40mph in a 60mph zone. A closer look reveals the driver applying her lipstick and eye make-up, with both hands, occasionally nudging the wheel in the right direction with one hand or the other. After drifting into the left hand lane for a roundabout I was hoping she’d go that way. The traffic quite often backs up for the second, (and only other exit) from the roundabout, but no. After undercutting a car, she merely drift back into the queuing traffic. A shinning example of the sort who give women a bad name. --- Context --- Type: Bad Driving Location: Merseyside Vehicle: Citroen Registration: RD16 TRO Date reported: 2025-06-28 --- Safety takeaway --- Stay defensive, leave space, and avoid escalating risky behaviour.” Keeping this first-hand wording matters because it preserves how the event was experienced at the time of reporting.
