The guy who got caught brake checking a truck on camera is gonna have a bad time. His insurance won't pay out and he is potentially up for dangerous driving charge
Yeah. Insurance can use deliberate brake checking to find against you. It is one of the very few ways that you can not be held at fault for rear ending someone, although typically the rear end will occur because one party was tailgating and the other brake checked and they would both be held at fault. But in this case the car cut in right infront giving no opportunity to create space. I would be very suprised if insurance didn't find the car driver 100% at fault.
I just finished watching that video and commenting then got knocked over by a courier on his phone, under a red light on a pedestrian crossing.... AGAIN! To answer your previous question. Victoria has the worst drivers out of any state I've ever lived in in Australia. SH*T CU*TS!!!!!
Yes it was Melbourne Courier. Spot on. Yes I am in the industry and they are on another planet. I do not know how they survive in life when they make so dumb wrong decisions daily and cold some are
7:15. Thats is an INDIAN (accent) Truck driver that crushed the greedy old man. Both need lessons in human behaviour. Everybody knows what NZ drivers know, ZIPPER LANE means one at a time from each lane converging. Simple really.
While the old guy was definitely a tool & should not have got out of his car, that is not a zipper merge. One on one is the polite thing to do here because of traffic build up, however the pantech had to cross the line so needs to give way by law. They’re both arrogant but injuring someone with your vehicle is a whole different level. They’ll both be in trouble, just different degrees.
Dashcam footage will clear the rear ending incident regarding the brake checking behaviour, but as you said, normally if you rear end someone you are at fault.
Hi mate, As a retired Interstate Truckie, I would say that the worst drivers are in Perth, Western Australia. Especially on freeways. They don't know how to merge, and a lot will just sit in a truck's blindspot. A huge problem has developed for the trucking industry over the past few years. I'll describe it simply by saying "leave Mumbai on Monday, Truck Licence on Tuesday." Cheers
I always respect truck drivers on the freeway/highway and give them a wide berth when overtaking. A lot of idiots on the road who are clueless as to the distance required to stop a truck especially a very large one.
In Australia, there is an exception to the rule that if you hit someone from behind, it’s automatically your fault. If someone cuts you off, squeezes their vehicle into the braking space you have deliberately kept, and then, while in your now non-existent breaking space, they slam on their brakes with no-one in front of them, it becomes their fault for performing the ‘brake check’ on you. That’s why dash-cams are so important. Without I em you can’t prove what they did.
7:20 old mate was the one trying to push in in front of a truck, old mate was the one that wanted to get out and try and fight. he fucked around and found out.
I would be interested to know what the outcome of this event was, and if the truck driver copped any charges, or if the aggressive behaviour of the boomer was enough to warrant his reaction in the eyes of the law.
Insurance can still find you partially at fault if you were tailgating but in a case like this where the car moved into the braking area from another lane I would be very suprised if the car driver wasn't found 100% at fault.
In Australia same law if hit someone from behind, but in the case of this truck driver who has dash cam evidence the imbecile was break checking in front of another vehicle which is illegal
I was a traffic controller for 7.5 years, and I can assure you that there are some drivers in Australia that think they're above the Law and show no emotion if they run you over. That's why I got out of the game.
Australia is same as UK in that a rear-end accident is usually automatically the rear driver's fault, but nefarious people figured out that brake checking people can cause the other driver points off their licence and damage their car, meanwhile the breakchecker gets to claim insurance and get a new car, so it became a common road rage tactic. Dashcams play the reverse card and the brakechecker gets done for dangerous driving, can potentially also go for insurance fraud, meanwhile the rear driver gets the insurance payout and new car.

As a delivery driver in Australia, people can be arseholes if they feel you did wrong by them. Brake checking is illegal here. That truck driver was Indian that ran that old man over. There's heaps of them here now for some reason. Perth Western Australia is known for the worst drivers in Australia.
It's not automatically your fault if you rear-end someone. It's changed in the UK too. I think most Aussie drivers are usually cool but there's always a clown somewhere trying to bugger up someone's day. Dash cams have made a big difference in stopping the scammers.
Every state's drivers think other states have the worst drivers. It's a simple matter of the bad driving habits one is used to being accepted as "not so bad". Except for Ballarat. They have every bad driving habit. The one at the end where Old Mate in the blue car cutting of the DC driver and having the cops surround him was Sturt Street in Ballarat.
Brisbane. A sub tropical city where rain and storms are regular occurrences. What a shame %95 of Brisbane drivers either have no idea, or just plain panic, about driving in wet weather. Actually, it's disgraceful.
My first experience of Brisbane was 50 years ago. People actually played chicken, driving at you trying to force you to take evasive action first. And so many drivers were pissed as farts. I am certain Brisbane has grown up since then but I have not been back. Melbourne used to get me because a one lane road at an intersection would become a three lane road with a car on the tram tracks and other in the turning lane ready to drag race for the single lane on the other side. It happened so often I wondered if learners were taught to do that. But otherwise a nice city to drive. Sydney was in the olden days was great but you really needed to grow up there to cope with the narrow streets and traffic lanes and winding main roads. Left there three decades ago before the place got sliced and diced with toll ways and tunnels. Adelaide and Canberra are just country towns. I have lived in rural Australia for so long now I doubt I will ever drive in a big city again.
as a learner, I have found that out the past few nights I've been out for a drive. Tailgated by one around Carole Park, bloke overtook me while I was doing around 57-60 in the 60 zone. Clearly speeding. Got so close I couldn't even see his headlights. That was the 3rd tailgated that night. The first night I had about 6 tail gaters.
Break Checking is against the law in Australia, although some people just do not understand that concept. My Dad told me just take your foot of the accelerator, no brake lights no brake checking caught on dashcam. These drivers are idiots so not understanding that a Truck cannot stop like a car passes right over their heads.

5:40 na we have brakechecking laws here, especially against heavy vehicles.
Hi Scotty, Happy new year to you and yours may it be a safe and happy one. Thanks for your entertainment over the last 12 months. Cheers

I wish people would learn the difference between a lane change & a zipper merge. It would save a lot of angst 😂

Break checking any vehicle is an offence of dangerous driving, in most states, I think. If there is any damage caused, the charges escalate.
Insurance can still find you partially at fault if you were tailgating but in a case like this where the car moved into the braking area from another lane I would be very suprised if the car driver wasn't found 100% at fault.

The truck driver will be fine, the suv will get in trouble for break checking.

@@1legend517 Dunno how I did that, but I'll leave it in, it's funny
Lol the truck driver didnt get a fine learn the rules. The Imbecile was break checking massive fines for this as considered dangerous driving
Read below on other comments , BREAK CHECKING IS ILLEGAL AND CONSIDERED DANGEROUS DRIVING.
@@raymondhardy8468 Didn't say he got a fine, I said he will be fine, which means he will be okay.

So you have been to Australia
In general most places in Australia drivers are perfectly fine but there are always A-holes no matter where you go.
I never brake check but I will slow down but not to a stop.
Sydney has more aggressive drivers than most other big cities in Australia.
The perpetrator is always ignorant of their actions
Shoulder check!
And if you want to play with trucks.. FAFO

Drivers in Australia seem to be getting worse.
You sound a bit racist there. It was actually the old bloke putting on an act and the bloke 'speaking another language " was completely innocent.
Sydney and Melbourne have the worst drivers by far ✌️
