I don't want uninsured drivers like that sharing the roads with anyone else - hope he is forced to do a retest; the video imho backs the cop all the way.
I agree with you regarding the fact that he was driving illegally Mike but his driving behaviour was no different to most people though.
The point is, he was indicating and was over the white line in plenty of time for a driver behind to react by slowing down and/or taking a different path.
It seems significant to me that at the end of the program there was the usual run down of what happened to each driver but this case was not mentioned, suggesting that the driver was not charged in relation to the collision so presumably, the supervisor who would have seen the same video, came to the same conclusion as I did.
