The original submission notes: “Yes this means you, all of you the Nissan Micra drivers, the Skoda Felicia drivers, The Volvo 740 drivers, no matter who you are when you drive at 30MPH in a 60 Limit you create a hazard. Why you may ask? Because other people want to get past you because they have more to do in their day than go to the health food shop and buy lentils, if other people have to get past you they have to overtake, this puts them at risk, yes thats right your driving puts others at RISK!!!!! Not to mention the P1llocks who think its ok to accelerate to try to stop you overtaking.” Keeping this first-hand wording matters because it preserves how the event was experienced at the time of reporting. As more reports are logged from the same area, small details such as overtaking style, lane movement, junction pressure, or recurring time windows can reveal whether this is an isolated event or part of a broader local trend.
