I'm here for exactly the same reason van GY63FCM overtook with oncoming traffic on the B2244 then proceeded to drive about 80mph. About 12:50pm 29th May 2017.

Report
Awful. Not an exact representation of the work done by this company...But this morning a van (registration number WU13 WRN) almost caused a crash on the slip road coming from the A23 at Burgess Hill. We were in a queue and for absolutely no reason the van decided just to overtake me, causing me to slam my brakes on. Think your drivers need better training - will not be recommending to anyone!
