Link won't allow me in either. It's looking for access permission.

Again, won't let me in.

But assuming it's dash-cam footage, and that no accident was caused in the making of it, then chances are high you're being a dick if you do any more than shake your head sadly him as he goes past.

If you do post it on-line, chances raise to about 99.9%

Did he crash?

Did you crash?

Was anybody harmed by his overtake?

If the answer to all of the above is "no", then I suspect the proof was in the pudding and what he did turned out to be safe.

Could overtake someone on the brow of a hill round a blind bend where the road narrows and get away with it 9 times in a row but that doesn't automatically make it safe. The tenth time may well be a different story.

It doesn't look to be the worst overtake in the world but to go on the wrong side of the road with parked cars having the potential to reverse out where they'd only be looking the way they'd expect traffic to be coming - it ain't a great one either

Overtaking past a junction is bloody stupid, however 90% of the general populace wouldn't have noticed the junction and got away with it anyway, so a flat meh from me.

Looks like it ad make for an interesting DSA Hazard perception clip Laughing

Back in the real world.. encountering idiots like this on a daily basis is to be expected, move out the way and let them potato themselves, nothing is to be achieved by posting such things on the internet bar stress relief.

Locate the address the registration is linked to and post a turd through the letterbox if it means that much.

I would not be bawing about the overtake, but asking myself why it happened in the first place. Not often I get overtaken by cars.
