4 for the price of 1
Approaching a road junction with a blind bend, the second car decides to overtake blighthly ignoring 4 UK Highway Code instructions and breaking 3 rules. Specifically:
Rule 163

Rule 166
DO NOT overtake if there is any doubt, or where you cannot see far enough ahead to be sure it is safe. For example, when you are approaching
- a corner or bend
Rule 167
DO NOT overtake where you might come into conflict with other road users. For example
- approaching or at a road junction on either side of the road
- stay behind if you are following a cyclist approaching a roundabout or junction, and you intend to turn left.
