Original report (as submitted)

I m doing 50 behind a skip lorry; it s raining, the roads are like a skid-pan, and this one comes up behind about 15 feet away, and then sat there. Suicidal. I eased off down to 30, then back up to 50 (and he still didn t pass), then ironically he got tailgated too (by W287 XGC). --- Context --- Type: Tail Gating Location: North Yorkshire Vehicle: Peugeot 3008 Registration: W287 XGC Date reported: 2025-08-21 --- Safety takeaway --- Leave extra following distance and avoid brake-check escalation.
