    well as far as i could see he was driving pretty quickly but only overtook when he could see nothing was coming the other way, i didnt see him do any dodgy overtaking like round blind bends etc........you are allowed to overtake lol

    The most he did wrong was skip a red light over the bridge and jump out early over a double white... (and the obvious but not measured speeding)

    the first thing he did was cut across lanes to make the turn off, he did overtook on the brow of a hill, also drove intentionally thru a red light

    Ive driven harder than this guy round corners, maybe not for as long a period. The bend he over took on the double whites he could see there was nothing coming, theres a part of road that i use that people over take on and that has double whites that people pass on, there dangerous because by the time there finished your almost finished overtaking and out of the safe overtaking zone. He didn't exactly tail gate and cut people off and he passed when it was ASARP

    I don't think he overtook on the brow of a hill I could be wrong I only watched it once and it looked like mist, I thought he was passing on a hill too to start with.

    I cant stick up for the guy for his driving because he was in the wrong for most of it due to speeds, but not everyone wants to track there cars and push them as hard as you can.

    I wouldn't say I'm a fast driver anymore and haven't been for a long time, but I have had my moments mainly in my dads cars because they tend to be more fun than what my V70 or C70 ever were.
    Thanks

    By my reckoning he would have accrued a ban by half way through the clip. Overtaking on junctions, overtaking on ghost islands, jumping red light, speeding in a forty zone (well, speeding most of the time), nasty approach to junction at 3.20 allowing no anticipation of car pulling out - no margin for error. Very marginal overtaking at 2.03, 2.51, 5.16 to 5.22. Not to mention crossing white lines.

    Or maybe he is a fantastic driver. Just glad I wasn't going the other way.

    Now I now I sound like a 'Volvo' driver saying this, but I do work with victims of other people's driving - and the consequences are absolutely devastating and permanent. I have had a number of friends killed either on bikes or as pedestrians over the years - so I feel that this guy is taking too many chances (mainly with other people's lives). He is too busy showing off to read the road - with no margin for error.

    It happens quick.
