Jaw-dropping moment reckless Mini driver comes within inches of a high-speed crash

This Mini driver came within inches of a high-speed collision with a white van after attempting a risky overtake at a junction.
Dashcam footage, filmed on March 14 by Marcus Watkin, shows the white van slowing down and indicating right.
The small blue car whizzes past and is forced to slam its brakes and swerve to avoid crashing into the rear of the van.
After re-entering the correct lane, the Mini driver continues on despite nearly losing control of the car and ignoring the road-markings telling drivers not to over-take.
Captioning the astonishing clip, Marcus said: 'Minding my own business on way back from Oswestry today, coming out of Whittington heading to Ellesmere I was witness to a guy who thought he was on the Italian Job film set.'
'What a tool, I bet his a** went a bit tight during the braking!
'Good job I checked my mirrors when I was braking, as i spotted him starting to overtake.'
The footage has received more than 16,000 views and has been shared by almost 230 social media users.
One viewer, Bridie Tonge, said: 'Blooming scary. There are some idiots around.'
Keren Davies wrote: 'What a bloody idiot.'
Steve Evans commented: 'Mini driver doesn't know what those arrows in the road mean then.'
Steve Watkins responded: 'Too many folk in too much of a hurry.'
