This was the worst pass today. Absolutely no need for it. Scared me enough to pull out in case the car swiped right back in.
It's clear from all of this how utterly pointless this pass was. The traffic was clearly stopped ahead at the start of the clip and this car would have to stop. And then afterwards the road conditions were not different from normal. That is, there would be queueing traffic 100 yards further up.
Before loads complain that I was too close to traffic in front, the camera is zoomed, I have more space in front. Not to the side though. Later filtering was jumpy as the road surface is the usual mess it is at the side.
