The original submission notes: “Durham Lane, Eaglescliffe; heading North towards Stockton/A66; roadworks with temporary lights on red: Fiat van in front of me stopped at the lights for a moment or two then, seeing no traffic, decided to go through. The risks are obvious. 3 seconds later, a mini-bus approached from the opposite direction, and had to slow to a stop to avoid hitting the van; van slowed to a stop too. Minibus driver decided (rightly) it s his right of way, so he wouldn t budge. I waited back where the big obvious red sign told me to wait, so there was a nice long gap behind the van where he could have reversed and got out of the way if he wanted to. No. That would be like admitting he was wrong. He used the verge to try and creep around the minibus. Minibus driver wound down his window and no doubt had a little word with the van driver as they passed. A few moments later, the lights changed; I set off and caught up with f*ckwit van-driver a mile further on. So that wasn t much of a time-saver anyway. Van had livery on it: "Advanced Roofing". Didn t get the phone number, sadly. --- Context --- Type: White Van Man Location: Pembrokeshire Vehicle: Fiat Scudo Registration: WX03 GAV Date reported: 2025-06-29 --- 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.
