Driving to work this morning, escaped Harlow roadworks and went via old A11. Turned right towards Chingford, and just on the run up to the Royal forest hotel came up behind an XR2 thingy, all lowered and body mods. It was going fairly slowly and I noticed a learner bike in front of it, I expected the XR2 to fly past at the first available opportunity, but no, it waited till it could see the road ahead properly and then pulled out with indicators and pulled in safely, I followed past the bike and contined to follow the XR2, I was about to turn my lights off as the light had come up, when the XR2 turned their lights off before me so no reminder (no one ever seems to turn their lights off when it gets light)it then made reasonable progress through Chingford doing every thing absolutely correct. I stopped behind it at the lights and noticed it was a young girl 17-19 perhaps. If you're reading this then I must say well done to an exemplary piece of driving. It served as a reminder that it is very easy to tar everyone with the same brush.
Skill and speed with responsibility.
