a lot of people are saying to me they see driving like this all the time, its no big deal.
the way i used to drive when i was younger i would class as complete cockish, but it still wasnt anything like that.
I always planned as much as i could for eventualitys ie be driving a tit down a road that at least has two lanes or wide enough to be two lanes, driving flat out round a blind corner on a single lane road is nothing short of suicide surely? except the other person doesnt get a say in the matter, you might aswell start overtaking things on blind bends, its no less safe.
I never see driving like this on a daily basis, and im sure if it was happening as freely as people make out then as i live on a road very similar to the one in the vid i would be hearing about deaths every week.
In 21 years iv lived on such a road iv known two people roll it on a certain corner and thats it.

I agree, I have been for a spirted drive on country roads before but always slow down for corners like those. Would only consider taking it fast if there was clear veiw of the whole road. Even if there was it would be no where near as quick as that. To make that car squel about on its tyres like that you are pushing it very hard indeed. As when I test drove one it felt like a very planted/grippy car.

exactly why this country is in such a mess it is, the attitude really needs to change.
