I was driving back after dropping off a pupil (who’d just failed her test, so I wasn’t in the best of humour). I stopped at a set of traffic lights at the junction of Bentinck Road and Radford Road in Hyson Green, going straight ahead. Opposite me was a silver Mercedes driven by what appeared to be someone from a geriatric ward ( reg. no. S573 BVO ). To be honest, I don’t think he was indicating, but he was in the right turn lane.
Now, I just knew he was going to do it – his fossilised brain was unable to comprehend the change of circumstances separating “learner car” from “learner car driven by instructor” – but as the lights changed and we both moved off, he cut the corner by as far as it was possible to cut it (virtually hitting cars waiting up his road) just so he could go ahead of me. He had no right of way by any stretch of the imagination.
