Bad Truck Good Truck

19 Aug, 2020 - 6 years ago - on Penrose Road

As I was climbing a small rise in the road which turned to the right, two trucks overtook me. It appears to me the driver of the first truck would not have had a clear view around the corner and instead of being patient and waiting a few seconds till he had a clear view decided to overtake me anyway and not leave the 1.5m gap required by law when overtaking a cyclist in a 80k zone. The second driver was much more courteous.
