Veolia Recycling - Frighteningly close pass

Admittedly I should have probably maintained an affirmative position, looking back at this video (I seem to drift close to the parked car), but this was incredibly dangerous driving by this Veolia driver IMO. I'm glad they empty our recycling quickly... but this just takes the piss.

@powercranking It will be my first reporting of such an incident if I do. I've been contemplating it but I don't know what good it will do. I didn't get the reg or vehicle number, and there were plenty more Veolia lorrys about on this stretch of road... :(

@hydrachem While you may not have specific details there've been a few cases in the past where directors/managers have kicked butt and/or reviewed training and standards because of the danger to other road users. Especially true when the director's an avid cyclist (can't remember whose youtube/forum report that was).
