I damm nearly got killed last night by some dickhead.....thank god for Brembo's and about 2 inches Exclamation

On single carriage road with left hand bend ahead of me. Que of cars coming towards me and as I came around the apex of the bend some Censored was only overtaking three cars Exclamation Exclamation Exclamation
Directly in my path slammed on the brakes..........scared the S..T out of me and how I missed him I do not know.
Brembo's and brake assist etc did there job and kept me straight. All I can say for sure whoever it was would have died if I'd hit them and I don't suppose I would have been too good. Thats the closest near miss in my life.

W..KER and other words. I was going to go after him but I didn't have time to even see what kind of car it was....it was that close. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Hope that f-ing bastard gets his license pulled before he kills someone! I can't even fathom why people do stupid ass Censored lite that. I spoke to a driving license instructor who told me that there is a bunch of people, about 15% of all licensed drivers, who are involved in 50% of all car accidents in Sweden. They are just genetically poor drivers.

I hate people who think they are good drivers just because they know how to drive fast, who races around on public roads thinking it's Nürburgring. Good drivers drive safe, not fast.

Yeah, ever since the first "Getaway Stockholm" a few years back illegal racing is very popular up here. The Street Racing guys are pretty sensible, they block off roads, have medics and stuff but these guys in Getaway are criminals and a danger to the public. They race through residential areas with loads of kids around in the middle of the day, it's just luck no on has gotten killed yet. Love motor sport but it should be in a controlled environment.
