The original submission notes: “What an idiot. Purposely wheel spins onto the A15/A1260 roundabout over the A1139. Overtakes three cars on the single carriageway slip road onto the A1139. Weaves through traffic. When the lane restrictions come down to one lane for road works, and everyone slows to the temporary lower limit of 40, this clown swerves into the cones off lane, after realising he can’t make headway for the vehicles and people working in the lane (!!!) he plays a game of 40mph slalom whilst close enough to the car in front to be deemed as tailgating if he stayed in the same lane. If, for a split second, I thought that the people who operate the 999 switchboards would have been remotely bothered, and would have got the constabulary there, I would have not hesitated in dialling the number.” 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.
