Mrs pdm and I have just driven 800 miles approx from London to Lands End and return over 4 days. On not one occasion did we see a case of dangerous or impatient driving and we travelled a fair bit of the time on minor A and B classified roads as we toured around.
We encountered two minor accidents the first where an obviously ineperienced driver lost control on a bend on a wet road ans slid gently into the barrier on the side of the roard. The second was a caravan which `took over' the car and caused both to hit the left hand guard rail.
Driving in the UK is a breeze even at speeds of 70mph and being overtaken by faster traffic with no suggestion of risk. Courtesy and defensive driving reign supreme.

and... that looks like a truck with a trailer not just a truck, so twice as much vehicle length to pass.
Why do I pay the same ACC on my car as this clown?
A not uncommon sight on that road.
