Were you in Knightsbridge by any chance by Harrod's? There's an IG account I follow where the dude always hangs out there and shoots exotics all day.

I was there on business, so I didn't do any touristy stuff.

Unfourtunately, there are far more poor people with zero driving skills.

Pardon the arrogance, but after 45 (of 45) years of driving accident free and insurance claim free, my insurance premiums must be paying for all those losers on the road.

Defensive much. I frequently get stuck behind the asshole in the BMW or Corolla going 30 in a 50 because they're texting how traffic is terrible.
