Police have shared some shocking near misses on roads up and down the country – with an Audi driver among the worst offenders.
One of the clips shows the motorist narrowly missing a head-on collision with a lorry as he shoves his head out of a window to shout at another driver.
He recklessly undertakes cars on a junction before braking suddenly on the A158 in North Greetwell, Lincolnshire.
A Lincolnshire Police spokesperson said: ‘This driver undertakes a vehicle on the nearside, and then tries to remonstrate verbally with the driver behind him, while nearly colliding with an oncoming large goods vehicle.’
The clip is part of a montage sent in to police by members of the public showing near misses.
In another example, a driver overtakes on a bus lane while another mounts the kerb in a bid to get ahead.
When the Vauxhall driver realises they are stuck in traffic they reverse backwards along the path before re-joining the other cars.
In another clip another audi driver is caught speeding around a blind bend on a country road in Belchford, Bedfordshire.
