Surely. What does it mean to say that he overtook 15 m. before the
roundabout. Was he clear ahead? By how much. Some motorists I have met, and
one bus driver considered he had overtaken me when their head went past
abreast my head. They then felt free to turn left. The driver must have been
slowing down at this point, and it seems imprudent to overtake whilst
slowing down. I wonder what the driver would estimate their speeds to have
been?
