Beautiful Moments, Part Two
Last week I saw a helium balloon cross the road at the lights on a perfectly timed gust of wind. Today I saw four people trying to get into a GWiz electric car. They failed.
What's the best thing you've seen recently?

Sadly
not true. Sudden braking is "reckless driving".
One of the numpties at work did exactly this and ended up with 6 points and a smashed up car - HIS insurance wriggled out of paying for the car behind and so he ended up paying for the damage to both cars.
Of course, admitting that he slammed the brakes on as the car behind was up his arse and it was his mistaken belief that if anyone hit you from behind it was automatically their fault, was his first mistake.

yes, that wouldn't help - too much honesty, perhaps. 'Something ran out in front of me and I instinctively braked' is a perfectly-valid reason, though.
