Summary
Pathe synopsis: Like this bloke. He’s decent and he loves his wife and children. But put him behind a steering wheel and his whole personality changes. He backs out of his garage, narrowly missing a small boy on the pavement on his scooter. He stops in the direct path of a motorist coming past. He does right-hand turns against the oncoming traffic at the lights. He cuts in, he crosses zebras when other cars have stopped. then he curb-crawls after a girl who’s wiggling her hips. We see him doing everything as dangerously, as daftly, as selfishly and surprisingly as all of us do, sometimes - and it opens your eye to road manners.
