It's on blinkin' film!</p> <p>Last week we'd driven to the Sconser ferry terminal to head over to Raasay, been there a few minutes look up to see a short-sleeved and tie chao with tattoos down both arms striding towards the car. I wind the window down, "Hi there," I cheerily hail. He then proceeds to warn me never to overtake like that again, there was oncoming traffic, and he's got kids on the bus (turns out he was the driver). He's being rather threatening, leaning in my window. Took a little while before I could get a word in edge ways that this was most certainly a case of mistaken identity, that I had definitely not overtaken any bus, let alone his, en route (which I hadn't) and that there must be some other errant Mini in the Isle (he did then admit he felt rather stupid and had just seen the Mini and thought "I'm going to 'ave 'im" (his words, he was very southern English)). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15010#post-191475 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 21:24:13 +0000 SRD 191475@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>those 'vigilantes'...when will they stop ... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15010#post-191474 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 21:15:35 +0000 Min 191474@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33197008" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33197008</a></p> <p>The BBC news story is very light on detail but apparently the woman had filmed her driving through a red light. Be careful with those headcams! </p>
