Daniel try the law, www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/using-the-road-159-to-203 You MUST go around the mini roundabout, not over it (rule 188), if your tyres touch it is a fine if the police catch you doing it, (unless your towing a trailer, or a lorry, bus etc.. And anybody already on the roundabout you have to give way to (rule 187). That's the law, the bit your insurance will cop out of paying up on if they can and the Police will use to fine you.
Haha!! He obviously hasn't realised that the other car is already on the roundabout before he is so there he needs to give way. It's not a straight on.
Daniel Wilson is Tony C, maybe? You can clearly see that the other car is fully deployed onto the roundabout before Tony is even anywhere near it. Why the fuck was this clip even used?
Steve Moore, there's absolutely nothing wrong,.... *"Wrong"* just seems to be Daniel's standard opening response.... 3rd time he's used it so far commenting on this video! ATA420.... I've been thinking the same thing.... neither of them have any idea when it comes to roundabouts!
HSGingerBiscuit agree about the Daniel prick. Tony C is a fool. “Give way to traffic on a roundabout from the right. Can’t giveway to Tony if he isn’t even on the roundabout:)
Ste Rumbelow. Exactly. He's admitted in another comment thread that this was only his 2nd time of driving in these conditions. Only his 2nd time and he's attempting to drive as if the conditions are normal!
I drive covert vehicles and obviously my own private unmarked. The difference in behaviour is very noticeable marked vs unmarked. In a marked vehicle, traffic slows behind you on a motorway and you end up with half a mile of clear motorway with nobody daring to push over 70 8:25 this happened to me unmarked maybe a month ago but the face off was about a minute before the gent got out of his car ‘Ronnie Pickering’ style for a bare knuckle...despite clearly being in the wrong. It’s surprising though how often they continue thinking they are in the right, even when you replay the footage. I think it’s just the shock that they’ve been caught out. Very satisfying though I have to say!
Wanna get an idea of what it's like... follow any traffic cops on twitter. The scary one for me, is the number of drink/drug drivers. An example is @GMPtraffic. There are less than 8 traffic cops covering the whole of Greater Manchester, with two of three of them sharing a twitter channel. Every day they're on shift, they catch at least 1 drink-driver (with a significant amount more over the xmas/New-Year period). If there's less than 8 of them.... imagine how many are getting away with doing this *every* single day!! >:^C They also catch a large number of drivers no insurance and overloaded vehicles.
Enforcement is all cameras. So long as you stick to the speed limit where the cameras are and avoid all the bus lanes, you're fine. The actual skill of good driving with awareness, forward planning and keeping your car in roadworthy condition isn't taught because it's easier to reduce speed limits, put up cameras and say speed kills. That means the idiots might just see each other coming and will crash at lower speeds if they don't. It's an easy method of damage limitation rather than investing in dealing with the problem properly.
Cornish Dashcam, are you blind? bus started turning way before you got there and you waited till the last second to break. infact you hadn't even finished breaking before you hit the camera button.
Judging by the speed in the video, it was more a case of filtering and not overtaking. And of course filtering is good, legal and safe as long as dick heads (like that guy in the van) drive like a civilised person.
Glyn Davies it was a very poor overtake . the van was oh so clearly well ahead of him. it was not safe to overtake and the scooter rider is not following the highway code in this instance. heck he doesn't even have the basic skill to extract the video clip before submitting. he took a video of the video.
Andy P The Highway Code states that motorbikes can filter as long as it is controlled and slow. I was way under the speed limit. I was ware of my surroundings. When he moved over I instantly reacted and controlled the movement of the bike. Yes I did go onto the other lane. But it was to avoid coming off and I controlled my bike. So I was slow and controlled.
harry sexton you weren't filtering. this was a single carriageway and what you were doing was overtaking when unsafe to do so. the van was well ahead of you and was not stationary or slow moving. in addition there was moving traffic coming in the opposite direction to you. if you think you're following the highway code then I wish you a heap of luck. you'll need it riding around like that
9:18 Now there's someone who deserves round of applause for submitting their personal mistake. 👏👏 So refreshing to see cos most people are blind to their errors therefore never admit it.
Can't see what's going on in Harry S's clip but looks like he's overtaking into on coming traffic and expecting vehicles in front to stop and allow him past?
RandomShart as he looks back the van doesn't have much room either side at all. It's a single lane do he'd need to come over to pass anyway but there was 3 or 4 cars coming in the other direction. Filtering is legal but if there isn't space, there isn't space. Impatience causes accidents
apparently people think they can "filter" on a reasonably fast moving van on a single carriageway with oncoming traffic. I think the correct terminology in this instance is "overtaking " when not safe to do so. it is worth every cyclist reading the highway code rules 88 and 160 AND understanding case law too.
cheltencam surely you knew someone was gonna say this when you submitted the clip? Hopefully you'll learn from it and adjust your driving to suit the conditions in future... :)
10:09 Oh no, a bus pulled out of a junction and cost me 5 seconds of my day, I absolutely must save the clip and submit it to a RUclips channel to show how massively inconvenienced I was...
Just to point out, it wasn't to do with being "massively inconvenienced"?? More to do with the bus NOT stopping at a STOP sign and at no point was the buses drivers side window hidden from the camera so the car was clearly visible to the bus driver. Also to point out there was no car behind so why couldn't the bus wait five seconds for the car to pass the junction before pulling out.... like he should off!
To be fair, if other people aren't giving way when they should, what can she do except stop? Arguably she should be more assertive but she was probably a new driver, hence the wheel shuffling. She probably knew she did have priority but people will bully a woman in a Micra when they won't a guy in an HGV. She wasn't prepared to crash to prove she did have priority, which is fair enough.
5:00 Nick C that’s a bit dramatic flashing your full beams. They only just hit the chevrons and that’s because they have plenty of space behind them. Highway Code Rule 147, be patient; people make mistakes 🤷🏻♂️
At 5.56 Tony C - you are in the wrong! Give way to traffic from the right and to traffic already on the roundabout- if you pause at 5:56 you will see they have already entered the roundabout!
1:53 - This happened to my sister's Vauxhall Nova saloon in 1992, and she had only got less than a mile from home when if happened. The car was written off but she later saw it back on the road with another owner less than a year later.
Andy P it looks closer than it is. The driver was on his phone. I had a good metre to over take. Just didn’t judge it right. I am a lot more aware now due to the close call
harry sexton I'm definitely concerned about your welfare in that situation. Clearly if the van driver is on his phone then he's certainly in line for a hefty fine and 6 points on his licence (if he has one). There's a lot of careless drivers out there doing silly things all the time. keep the videos coming!
5:39 That complete fool of a Dash cammer completely over reacted against than Micra driver and he didn’t even have priority in that u turn, no wonder they want to remain anonymous!
Completely agree. I hate it when people block a lane of traffic to try and force people to give way. Those already on the carriageway have right of way, even if they are doddery old men in Micras. It's difficult to turn right from junctions like those, I'll usually try and let someone out if it's safe, but I wouldn't have done so for this arse.
It's the junction of Swadford Street and Keighley Road in Skipton and it's impossible to turn right out of it if there's a lot of traffic. There's a pelican crossing about 20yds behind the camera so if that's on red there'll be nowhere for the Micra to go until the lights change. There's another crossing about 30yds to the right on the road the camera wielder turns onto and sometimes the only time you can make the turn that the Micra was trying to do is by waiting for the crossing to stop the traffic. What locals with any sense do is turn left and go all the way round the roundabout which is just out of frame on the left of the shot at the start i.e. where the Micra's just come from.
Rushy 01.... U turn?.... the cammer was doing a right turn out of Swadford St. into Keighley Rd. I think what pissed him off was the Micra stopping directly in front of him effectively blocking him in.... a considerate driver will leave a gap like the Audi (behind the Micra) did. However, I do agree the the cammer's use of the horn was uncalled for!
2:10 how does a diesel burn? i thought the whole point of a diesel meant they dont set on fire but were compressed and thats what causes the engine to work?
A: M1 - Wow, I somehow managed to spot my name during the scroll of all the names for the last competition. Crazy how the eye can pick out anything at that speed.
Tis the M1. I often wonder why after a mile or even a mile and a half in some cases , people still fail to realise their junction is coming up until the last second . prob busy on their mobile phones .
The guy on the scooter m, what are you playing at?? Not enough power to pull skin off custard never mind over taking a van for no reason... what gives bikers a bad name
I'm sick of pointing this out. They *both* had 'right of way'. It's a road, so everyone has 'right of way' on it. However one of them had *priority*. It just wasn't Tony C!
Answer is A, M1. And please tell me I'm not the only one who slows down the playback speed to see if I can see my name on the random comment picker??!?? 😂
Tony C... Go around the roundabout and give way to traffic already on the roundabout...
What's wrong, Daniel?
Ignore him. Daniel has made numerous comments that show that he either A) has no idea how roundabouts work or B) is a complete troll
katari91 I'm just curious as to his thinking, that's all. I concur though. ;)
He should try slowing down, and going around, rather than over, the roundabout.
Daniel try the law, www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/using-the-road-159-to-203 You MUST go around the mini roundabout, not over it (rule 188), if your tyres touch it is a fine if the police catch you doing it, (unless your towing a trailer, or a lorry, bus etc.. And anybody already on the roundabout you have to give way to (rule 187). That's the law, the bit your insurance will cop out of paying up on if they can and the Police will use to fine you.
I think we can all guess what the 'C' stands for in 'Tony C'.
Haha!! He obviously hasn't realised that the other car is already on the roundabout before he is so there he needs to give way. It's not a straight on.
Tony C doesn't understand how to go around a roundabout.
What's wrong, Daniel?
Daniel Wilson is Tony C, maybe? You can clearly see that the other car is fully deployed onto the roundabout before Tony is even anywhere near it. Why the fuck was this clip even used?

Nice to see Cheltenham Dashcam driver adjusting his driving to the conditions.......
This Place Is Death my thoughts exactly.
He's new to this driving lark. He hasn't driven in snow before.
George Jacob even more reason to reduce your speed...
Ste Rumbelow. Exactly. He's admitted in another comment thread that this was only his 2nd time of driving in these conditions. Only his 2nd time and he's attempting to drive as if the conditions are normal!
Probably one of the many that use the fiddlers green area of Cheltenham as a race track
I would love to drive an undercover police car just for one day
eivom I say that all the time... And I wouldn't want to be paid just give out the tickets lol
I drive covert vehicles and obviously my own private unmarked.
The difference in behaviour is very noticeable marked vs unmarked. In a marked vehicle, traffic slows behind you on a motorway and you end up with half a mile of clear motorway with nobody daring to push over 70

😂😂
7:24 you catch a flash of the van's position relative to the double yellow line, I don't know where Harry S expected that driver to go.
Harry S, what are you doing trying to go past the van in your little scooter in the first place?
Andy P because he's on 2 wheels he is entitled......... 😑
Judging by the speed in the video, it was more a case of filtering and not overtaking. And of course filtering is good, legal and safe as long as dick heads (like that guy in the van) drive like a civilised person.

Alex thank you
cheltencam No worries credit to you, I always applaud people who recognise their mistakes. Happy new year as well. 👍
Alex Happy new year!
People send clips in every week of their mistakes. 99% of times on a mini roundabout :)
cptonemouk01. Yeah like Tony C at 6:00!
6:25.... hmmm, does Tony C drive an Audi?
To those who are driving too fast for conditions and colliding - are you trying to wind us up, by uploading your poor speed awareness?
Don't discount the idea that they're uploading to let other drivers know not to make the same mistake they made.
Fair point, but even so - shouldn't common sense speak for itself?
PhantomScottZ I'm guessing you're new, most people aren't born with common sense anymore, common sense is a rarity these days
Can't see what's going on in Harry S's clip but looks like he's overtaking into on coming traffic and expecting vehicles in front to stop and allow him past?

9:10 Going too fast.
Incognito No shit, Sherlock.
cheltencam surely you knew someone was gonna say this when you submitted the clip? Hopefully you'll learn from it and adjust your driving to suit the conditions in future... :)
last clip u can clearly see the bus pulling out yet you dont slow down at all.
osnapitzjamie well they didn't hit it...
Roundabouts in Britain, where even the dashcammers don't have a clue...
Not sure on uk road rules, but that tony c guy was probably in the wrong, the person cut the round a bout, but they where had right away.
10:09 Oh no, a bus pulled out of a junction and cost me 5 seconds of my day, I absolutely must save the clip and submit it to a RUclips channel to show how massively inconvenienced I was...

3:35 not only was she stopped on a roundabout, she was feeding the wheel!
Ben Mayall Cant believe they still teach this. "Safety"
To be fair, if other people aren't giving way when they should, what can she do except stop? Arguably she should be more assertive but she was probably a new driver, hence the wheel shuffling. She probably knew she did have priority but people will bully a woman in a Micra when they won't a guy in an HGV. She wasn't prepared to crash to prove she did have priority, which is fair enough.
Flossie1985 She hesitated and other drivers just went, also a probability. I'm not going to assume as the video is cut short.
At least she didn’t cut the mini roundabout!
What makes you think the drivers a she?
5:00 Nick C that’s a bit dramatic flashing your full beams. They only just hit the chevrons and that’s because they have plenty of space behind them. Highway Code Rule 147, be patient; people make mistakes 🤷🏻♂️
Also, incorrect use of headlights
Came to the comments to hunt for the "prick of the week" but all I find is M1 M1 M1
Meh
M1
Kangaroo Josh110 👊👊👊
At 5.56 Tony C - you are in the wrong! Give way to traffic from the right and to traffic already on the roundabout- if you pause at 5:56 you will see they have already entered the roundabout!
1:25 is my favourite clip in a long while.
Irrelevant to the video, but does anyone know what song it was in the last clip with the bus? I have just that bit of it stuck in my head.
1:53 - This happened to my sister's Vauxhall Nova saloon in 1992, and she had only got less than a mile from home when if happened. The car was written off but she later saw it back on the road with another owner less than a year later.
I could only understand one word from the Slim Stevens clip at 8:24. Anyone want to chime in with a translation?
M1. Thanks for putting my clip in. Much appreciated
harry sexton you're the chap on the scooter trying to go past the van. naughty naughty...you were in the wrong there by The way
Andy P it looks closer than it is. The driver was on his phone. I had a good metre to over take. Just didn’t judge it right. I am a lot more aware now due to the close call
harry sexton I'm definitely concerned about your welfare in that situation. Clearly if the van driver is on his phone then he's certainly in line for a hefty fine and 6 points on his licence (if he has one).
There's a lot of careless drivers out there doing silly things all the time.
keep the videos coming!
Can someone tell me what the first @PerspexAvenger clip was about?
2:51 One the of biggest overreactions I have ever witnessed.
A the M1 😀👍🏾 happy new year
The motorway that has service stations named Woodall, Trowell and Tibshelf is the M1.
Does anyone have a translation for 8:40?
why do people go so fast in the snow, crazy
Because they are as crazy as Russian drivers.
5:39 That complete fool of a Dash cammer completely over reacted against than Micra driver and he didn’t even have priority in that u turn, no wonder they want to remain anonymous!

Came to add a Tony C comment. Saw there was no need, there's like a zillion already!
Last clip, the bus had already pulled out well before you cone around the corner
Those services are on the M1
Happy New Year to everyone :)
The answer is the M1 (Motorway 1) keep up the good work. 🏆
The clip from Tony C he was in the wrong seeing as though it was a round about not a bloody t junction 😂
2:10 how does a diesel burn? i thought the whole point of a diesel meant they dont set on fire but were compressed and thats what causes the engine to work?
ohhh true, thanks for clearing that up :)
I love your vids. The M1 has those names.
7:54 Christopher J sounds like a superb chap
Woodall, Trowell and Tibshelf services are on the M1
M1 I'm amazed at how many people forget they are turning off at that junction of the motorway and have to cut across several overtaking lanes !
A: M1 - Wow, I somehow managed to spot my name during the scroll of all the names for the last competition. Crazy how the eye can pick out anything at that speed.
Colin Richardson Me too! Normally I miss it but it just progress it sores go through them all. A. m1 just under this comment gets chosen.
I didn't spot my name in either video :(
10:00 would that be *croft house gardens???* slow down in the snow peeps...
9:12 To be fair, thats a hell of a save even if they were clearly going too fast.
Shoxy Thank you
where the hell is cheltencam lol i have herd of cheltenham as i live here heheh
nigel kelsey couzens cheltencam is a portmanteau of Cheltenham and Dashcam.
Well, you don't get praised for cleaning up your own mess.
Was way too fast for these kind of conditions.
Well I did give them praise. Its right there at the top. You've literally commented on the praise.
Harry S.. do you know you rode over a £5 note, it was on the..
FLOOR 😂
The answer is probably M1.
I can't be arsed looking it up to make sure, but everyone else seems to have gone for it, so that's my answer.
Compilation 46 answer is M1. Keep up the good work.
M1 happy new year🎉🎉🎉
It's A. M1!
Happy New Year
Woodall, Trowell and Tibshelf are all service stations on the M1.
M1. That is my answer for the competition! ☺️
Answer is A. M1
Good compilation as usual.
Tony C it’s a roundabout not a straightabout see this so many times on here not just tony C. Happy new year and drive safe.
1:55 pretty sure it's not going to grow, no matter how much they water it
yodaslovetoy you say that, it actually started out as a ford ka!
Its A.)M1 Happy new Year!
Oh... that second clip from Perspex Avenger is sweeeeeeeeeet
Happy New Year!!!! The answer i think is M1 ;)
M1 😊 great vid again
Tis the M1. I often wonder why after a mile or even a mile and a half in some cases , people still fail to realise their junction is coming up until the last second . prob busy on their mobile phones .
A: M1. Which I've only been a passenger on, and have no wish to actually drive on myself.
M1 is the answer.
Happy new year
It's the M1, good luck everyone
I'm gonna go with everyone else's answer and say the M1 - if I win, I'm sorry. Lol
I hope you win.
Shhhhh I did the same don't give away the secretes :)

Answer A, M1. Happy New Year folks, make it a good one!
M1 Happy New Year Guys
The guy on the scooter m, what are you playing at?? Not enough power to pull skin off custard never mind over taking a van for no reason... what gives bikers a bad name
0:48 the answer is A
The answer in M1. Thanks for the video.
Perspexavenger cracks me up 😂
I'm sick of pointing this out. They *both* had 'right of way'. It's a road, so everyone has 'right of way' on it.
However one of them had *priority*. It just wasn't Tony C!
8:18 is that John Richardson speaking ?
NAYLO
Holly shit i didnt notice that 😂
It bloody does sound it
M1 for my answer. Good luck all!
It seems like land rovers catch fire often after what happened in Liverpool!, also driving in the snow needn't be that difficult just slow down.
M1 grate video keep them coming
The answer is A) M1
If I win, I could have used these words to say something important.
06.00 - On the roundabout (and ON the roundabout), well before you are anywhere near it. Don't know why you bothered sending this in.
A. M1. Love the videos!!
*Nice channel :)*
Exposed: UK Dash Cams Likewise :)
Answer is A. The M1. Happy New year guys!
Slim Stevens, excellent work forcing that beamer back.
03.00 - 'What happened there?' BMWubbleU happened there. Expect no more. Must send some of my BMW clips in.
5:59 Tony C - Other car was on roundabout first he sped up
The answer is the M1 - Happy New year everyone!
1:38 perfect!
All those serves are on the M1
I’m sure you’d find these services on the M1
Tony C, it's a roundabout, the hint is in the name to go round it not over it.
M1 love the vids
7:52 Steady on Mr Road White Knight.
Those services can be found on the M1.
the answer is the M1.. always stop off at woodall on my way down south lol
Is it the M1.
Answer is A, M1. And please tell me I'm not the only one who slows down the playback speed to see if I can see my name on the random comment picker??!?? 😂
A: M1 happy new year everyone!
The answer is A! The M1 :)
The M1
My sister used to work at Woodall services
Answer is A. M1! Happy New Year
