Unfortunately some of the time there isn't justice and you come along and find out the moron has wiped out an entire family in a mini van when he lost control and went into the oncoming lane. (and the phrase I like to use instead of 'shot past us like we were stood still', is 'passed us like we wuz painted on the fence', in a suitable southern hick accent, of course.) “the idiot in the white van that shot past us like we were stood still, wobbled precariously as he found the ice on the bridge up ahead and, having stabilised himself, carried on at a speed that was ridiculously dangerous for everyone on the road”
