    Can't see how you can be sure what happened there from that video. There could have been a touch of wheels that forced Karpets across the road, or maybe he was avoiding something in the road (bottle or rubbish). Think we need some more evidence before the lynch mob gets to work

    Didn't see a push or or anyone veering off line. Certainly appeared strange the way he veered though.

    Compared to the motorbike, that was 10 times worse. +1 that driver needs a life ban.
