Reminiscent of the fabled biker-Wankney cabby incident, where the biker is talking to the cabby at some lights.
"Didn't you see me?"
"Sorry; thought when you saw me coming you'd swerve"
SMACK!
"Sorry; thought when you saw my fist you'd duck"

Ah. Thanks.
It is good to see her maintaining her stance as an ambassador of diplomacy.

Trying to understand her thought process. Wear the hood up for anonymity when you flick the Vs at photographers.

Vine claims that at the end of the incident while pulling away: "She made a finger of her right hand into a gun and mocked fired at me." Abigail Bright for the defence dismissed that claim as "rubbish".

She added: "There's nothing to corroborate that."

She also argued that the video footage from Mr Vine could have been "doctored or edited".



She said: "She was frightened she would knock him off. The video does not give a full account of events."

How refreshing to see a young person using a proper V sign instead of the ubiquitous single digit.

I think Shanique is wearing the exuberant fur trimmed parka to look good in the selfies. As for understanding her thought process - that is likely to be a challenge on many levels.

She's not on YACF, so cannot be subjected to the same scrutiny that you or Wow or MacB or Floutus is.
It is simpler than it looks.

Wearing a black top under a pale pink coat, Pearson sat in the dock as the footage was repeatedly played.

Giving evidence, she said she initially hooted to show Mr Vine she expected him to move over when the road widened, and performed an emergency stop when he then halted, adding: "It was too quick, it kind of shocked me."

The former assistant manager at a bookies said she then tried to push his bike out of the way, but Mr Vine held his ground.

She told the court: "I know what I said was wrong and I am open to apology, but I think we both did wrong."

Her version is she was shocked and puzzled by the man who stopped dead in front of her on his bike and later, when he took her photo, she was alarmed and perturbed. She's admitted to driving an unlicensed vehicle.

The account was set up only this month. If it is legit, she is even more dumb than anyone could have imagined (and illiterate).  I suspect it may be fake.

The account may be in doubt but her dumbness isn't.  And she has been found guilty.

Pearson, who has a number of previous convictions including assaults and theft, may face prison as she was already subject to a suspended sentence.

Only 22.  Off to a good start.

You'd have thought someone driving an uninsured car would have the common sense to drive with a considerable amount of circumspection, but...
