Haha. Yeah, I have done this in my head on each bike trip in China too!!! Yes, black German made saloons... My contribution was white SUVs, will totally run a bike off the road and do it with a grin whilst over taking on a hill and unbroken centre line. Haval brand particularly.
Mian bao che's -agreed! So slow and worst driver awards go to them. Have to be particularly vigilant when tailing them, thankfully, most of the time is spent overtaking them. On my recent (very short) trip in Zhejiang, I added a category of reckless driver.. The blue lorry. Fricking hell, I'm sure some of them thought they were cars or even motorcycles.. shifting lanes by spinning the wheel with no indicators, trying to squeeze through gaps but forgetting they are driving a twelve foot vehicle loaded with heavy metals.
Just noticed, you have the blue truck on there.
