    Someone I know nearly got run down this morning on the way to work.

    Suspecting the distinctive 4x4 was local, she went looking for it this evening.

    Found it and left a note -

    I remember some years ago, Maggie(?) of Spokes(?) was in the een, fronting, or trying to launch, a be nicer to each other campaign, e.g. just smile at the motorised clown who nearly wipes you out.

    It hasn't worked ... there's a need for a militant tendency.

    Name and shame the registration plate. Might save someone who sees them coming !

    I respect the person who can take this sort of calm, collected action. especially the gentle jibe at the oversized vehicle.

    But I would still like to see it called in to the police.

    I'd love to leave notes if I could track some of my near misses down. I think I'd struggle to be quite so polite.

    The last bit makes me think of the Talking Heads.

    And you may find yourself, under the wheels of a large automobile.
    And you would ask yourself: "How did I get here?".
