I got beeped recently because I wouldn’t pull blindly out into traffic; a larger car was blocking my view. I’ve watched enough of these videos to know not to pull out into traffic if I can’t see the road.
People can just get so impatient anyway. Drive safely, not quickly. There's an intersection near my place where only the car in front can see oncoming traffic until it's basically in the intersection, and I've been beeped a couple of times waiting for a car that lined up right in front of me just a couple of seconds later, which I definitely would have hit if I'd gone when the people behind me demanded I do.
The worst us when someone like waves you on. It’s like I’m sure they’re being nice and I’m sure they’re right and it’s free, but ultimately it’s on me, and if I can’t see and the traffic is fast enough, it’s a big risk to take another drivers word, because ultimately you’re the one responsible if there’s a crash

I mostly agree, although the one problem is that there could have been traffic there. It looks mostly blind due to the wall until you're around it. I would only condone it if the driver had better visibility and was sure no traffic was present.

What impresses me is that there are cammers that don't have English as their native language, but have clearly consulted with the "Handbook for Australian driving: Must know Australian insults and when to use them"
Way too many of these from South Australia (I say this with trepidation, still recovering from my motorcycle going over the bonnet of someone turning right, because "hey, I didn't see you"!). Car drivers, don't take risks. Motorcycle riders- be careful...
The first video just happened to be my son driving his car in Broadmeadow. I couldn't believe my eyes when I watched it as I had no idea someone had caught it on dashcam. Purely a coincidence.
17:12 - drive cries out because car in middle of the road (with plenty of room for braking) ... me .... Holy crap that's a sharp drop!!! No no no nonononononononon NO!
8:19 thank you to this dude for the new band I discovered from this clip. Also you know it's gonna be a cracker of a video when the first clip is from your city
9:39 never seen that manoeuvre in that spot before, 11:34 having a bike fly past like that doesn't bother me cos 9 times out of 10 they're over the horizon before my brain's registered
One thing I've really noticed in recent years is how many drivers are clueless about merging from the left on overtaking lanes. The moment they see the merge sign (or first arrow pointing right ) they switch to the right-hand lane and don't even bother indicating. I guess they don't want to wear out their indicators, or their eyes, or the very few brain cells they have.
You can put virtually all of these incidents down to just incredibly bloody minded selfishness (I want to go there and everyone has to avoid me), and or incredible stupidity.
But the confusing thing with that concept is that they’re placing a LOT more faith in the ability of other drivers (to avoid them)… then you look at the other videos and realise good drivers are the minority here!
A terrible driver is someone involved in crashes where he's at fault. An average driver is someone involved in crashes where the other drivers are at fault. A great driver is someone who never has crashes. ALWAYS anticipate other drivers mistakes. You don't know them, nor what their capabilities are. In a serious crash, being the driver 'not at fault' is not going to make you any less dead. Drive DEFENSIVELY.
The absolute lunacy, sheer arrogance and lack of common curtesy for others on Australian roads is a real problem! The police really need to get their game up (especially in Sydney) with more surveillance before bad driving is "normalised". More surveillance is definitely not a good thing, but I don't think there is any other way this situation will get better.
From my driving experience(30 yrs), luxury vehicle drivers are some of the worst.They think their wealth allows them to be entitled, and some are just downright shithouse.
Yeah, but defensive driving is also giving priority attention to those vehicles and situations that pose a greater risk or threat. And some car makes and models most certainly do.
We're no longer the people we used to be, we are selfish, aggressive and inconsiderate. The Aussie vernacular used to be endearing, charming even, now it's only used to spot hatred at someone. Even if they deserve it, we didn't used to retaliate because we knew we would look just as stupid. My country depresses me sometimes.
@@johnt.848 That was really rude. Nothing wrong with open discussion on a country's problems as well as it's merits. Thats how we fix things that are going down the wrong path. Blind patriotism that only says 'love it or leave' are a fast track to societal problems that are just too deep to fix. Also, perhaps take a moment to illustrate what is great about Australia, instead of illustrating being "aggressive and inconsiderate".
@@johnt.848 There's a couple of false assumptions there. I'm several generations removed from being an immigrant, not everyone who comments on something they see as wrong with Australia is wanting to make it into another country. Second, not every discussion on issues is negative, which is what I was trying to say in my answer. I love Australia, I think it is a great place to live. I also think people are becoming less patient and less generous with each other, for a multitude of reasons. But to say that's okay, we should all become intolerant of each other as long as we say Australia is great isn't going to resolve anything, and if that is an issue and not merely my opinion, then it goes without being addressed and becomes worse. We, particularly in Victoria, are internationally notorious for our lack of patience and selfish attitudes on the road. There is nothing wrong with talking about it, and perhaps we bring it to the forefront of the national zeitgeist and we start to change it. Exactly what happened with seatbelts, too, by the way.
@@johnt.848 Immigrants seem to use their ethnicity as an excuse not to integrate.I live on the same street as an International training institute & the students flagrantly disregard the road rules entering & exiting the establishment & when the Police go & talk to them about their dangerous behaviour in traffic they feign not being able to speak English. So the Police go & talk to the administrators there & the students get into big trouble because the staff know that the students all can speak English & understand the Police perfectly fine.
Is 6:02 Tasmania or something? That mountain range with the fog looks incredible, cant really picture it anywhere like that in Aus mainland. looks like S.A. plates for all the cars there but can't be sure.

@@MrBungle222 They can buy special plates that have a different colours and custom symbols to a standard plate. Mine's a custom green with a dark blue background to match my utes colour pattern with the name of my farm in caps.
Second clip = Don't you just love that mentality? Infrastructure put in place to keep traffic flowing smoothly and idiots approach too fast, brake too late and slow down the person with enough brains to drive properly.
You can see an increase (both in these videos and in person on the roads) of people just driving wherever they want, as if they own the road itself, no care for safety or other motorists, no care for the road rules or common sense either.
Some people should not be behind the wheel at all. They just don't read the markings, everyone just seems to be in a major rush, there is no consideration for other lives. We need more cops on our roads.
i accept that spaghetti junction isnt the most intuitive of intersections, but the heard mentality some drivers exhibit is really worrying. it's like when ms hoover goes "i didn't know we could do that?!" in the simpsons and tears thru and intersection after homer does it.
My other half and I regularly drive from Victorian border to Melbourne return to border. The lack of basic Highway Code knowledge shown by Melbournian drivers is astounding, the extreme lack of patience, pulling over into other people’s safe braking zone, pulling in front of fully loaded trucks in their blind spots, we have been nearly killed quite a few time’s, so people please please if you drive try putting your brain in gear first, then put your vehicle in gear not the other way around.
These e-scooters can travel up to 70-80km/h and the riders usually wear no safety gear whatsoever, and when they do(rare) it's just a helmet and that gives bugger all protection. Give it time, with the way these idiots ride on the roads with zero ₣ϋʢӃs given to theirs and other road users safety, it's just a matter of time before the serious injuries and fatalities pile up.
That e scooter rider was straight up a dick head doing over the posted speed limit for car's Let alone e scooters law's, passing on the right and going head on with traffic. This was a Dragon e scooter that has a top speed of 80km/h some have a maximum of 100km/h Plus

@@gtv86942 since ages ago.

(2) If the driver is turning left (except if the driver is using a slip lane) or right from the terminating road into the continuing road, the driver must give way to-- (a) any vehicle travelling on the continuing road (except a vehicle making a U-turn on the continuing road at the T-intersection), and (b) any pedestrian who is crossing the continuing road at or near the intersection. (6) If the driver is turning right from the continuing road into the terminating road, the driver must give way to-- (a) any oncoming vehicle that is travelling through the intersection on the continuing road or turning left at the intersection, and (b) any pedestrian who is crossing the terminating road at or near the intersection.

That why I always carry a drink cup full of crap so if they did decide to pull this move on me, they'll literally have a more crappyer car.
@@dynevor6327
True, that works too.
What impresses me is that there are cammers that don't have English as their native language, but have clearly consulted with the "Handbook for Australian driving: Must know Australian insults and when to use them"
Could be part of the citizenship process.
They studied Dash Cam Owners Aus first.
11:01 that is literally the intersection that is overlooked by the Holden Hill police station...
11:30 I'm weeping bro 😭😂
Legend has it is that it is HUUUUGE
Way too many of these from South Australia (I say this with trepidation, still recovering from my motorcycle going over the bonnet of someone turning right, because "hey, I didn't see you"!). Car drivers, don't take risks. Motorcycle riders- be careful...
The Torrens River marks the point where civilisation ends and madness begins.
Doesn't it shit you? The comment "I didn't see you" means that somehow it was your fault.
When they tell the cop, "I didn't see him" the cop hears them say "I was too busy not paying attention to look."
12:16 that's a nice reaction... almost like he expected it to happen... ;-)
8.29 there is a whole stretch of green there to be converted to a piece of asphalt instead of a no sign, no warning merging lane
Nice one again, have a great 2023.
Did the tyre hit the car on the first one?
Are you familiar with the international project "Creative Society"?
6:08 I guess they really are faster harder scooter in Glenorchy
The first video just happened to be my son driving his car in Broadmeadow. I couldn't believe my eyes when I watched it as I had no idea someone had caught it on dashcam. Purely a coincidence.
17:12 - drive cries out because car in middle of the road (with plenty of room for braking) ... me .... Holy crap that's a sharp drop!!! No no no nonononononononon NO!
8:19 thank you to this dude for the new band I discovered from this clip.
Also you know it's gonna be a cracker of a video when the first clip is from your city
9:39 never seen that manoeuvre in that spot before, 11:34 having a bike fly past like that doesn't bother me cos 9 times out of 10 they're over the horizon before my brain's registered
One thing I've really noticed in recent years is how many drivers are clueless about merging from the left on overtaking lanes. The moment they see the merge sign (or first arrow pointing right ) they switch to the right-hand lane and don't even bother indicating.
I guess they don't want to wear out their indicators, or their eyes, or the very few brain cells they have.
You can put virtually all of these incidents down to just incredibly bloody minded selfishness (I want to go there and everyone has to avoid me), and or incredible stupidity.
But the confusing thing with that concept is that they’re placing a LOT more faith in the ability of other drivers (to avoid them)… then you look at the other videos and realise good drivers are the minority here!
So did the wheel hit the car in the 1st clip or not?
"Thats not good",yeah right.
0:00 Oh, FFS ☁️👁️☕
Where did it come from? Where did it go?
Where did it come from?!
I NEED CLOSURE!! 😭
5:52 why is this clip muted ? I would have loved to hear this v8 drifting into the underpass ^^
A lot of clips with music playing are muted to help try to avoid a copyright strike.
Old mate at 13:52 wasn’t letting that parking spot go…
Haha like a hawk over a freshly born baby rabbit glistening in the sun, its after birth still wet oozing upon the rock it was born on
And zero ₣ϋʢӃs given about anybody else by blocking/interfering with traffic flow lol.
@@metarugia3981 thats a crime... what if the ambos needed to park there
6.45 "oh look at that, what an idiot!"
As they drive 20km over the limit 🤦♂️
NOT AS BAD AS I EXPECTED JUST THE NORMAL NO MIRRORS OR INDICATORS , I WILL DO WHAT I WANT .
SOC.
A terrible driver is someone involved in crashes where he's at fault.
An average driver is someone involved in crashes where the other drivers are at fault.
A great driver is someone who never has crashes.
ALWAYS anticipate other drivers mistakes. You don't know them, nor what their capabilities are. In a serious crash, being the driver 'not at fault' is not going to make you any less dead.
Drive DEFENSIVELY.
At 6:45 it’s sign posted 60 but the gps on the dashcam says the cammer is doing 80.
Yes, very bad. Makes the ford driver's actions even more dangerous
The absolute lunacy, sheer arrogance and lack of common curtesy for others on Australian roads is a real problem! The police really need to get their game up (especially in Sydney) with more surveillance before bad driving is "normalised". More surveillance is definitely not a good thing, but I don't think there is any other way this situation will get better.
13:35 spent all that money on the car and number plates, didn't pay for any driving lessons
From my driving experience(30 yrs), luxury vehicle drivers are some of the worst.They think their wealth allows them to be entitled, and some are just downright shithouse.
1st clip, Why did you deprive is of our wheel bouncing pleasure?
Dashcams should start paying people for these videos!
6:11 I was waiting for the ute to take him out
Defensive driving is observing ALL vehicles and situations..not profiling car brands
Yeah, but defensive driving is also giving priority attention to those vehicles and situations that pose a greater risk or threat. And some car makes and models most certainly do.
11:00 Meth is one helluva drug.
"huh,huh,huh"Rick James was spot on.
13:58 "IF YOU DON'T LOOK GOOD WE DON'T LOOK GOOD" FELT THAT🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Cheers from Mozambique.
We're no longer the people we used to be, we are selfish, aggressive and inconsiderate.
The Aussie vernacular used to be endearing, charming even, now it's only used to spot hatred at someone. Even if they deserve it, we didn't used to retaliate because we knew we would look just as stupid.
My country depresses me sometimes.
C'mon m8, what we see here are just a bunch of c.u.n.t.s, the majority of drivers do abide by road rules.
@@johnt.848 That was really rude. Nothing wrong with open discussion on a country's problems as well as it's merits. Thats how we fix things that are going down the wrong path. Blind patriotism that only says 'love it or leave' are a fast track to societal problems that are just too deep to fix. Also, perhaps take a moment to illustrate what is great about Australia, instead of illustrating being "aggressive and inconsiderate".
@@johnt.848 There's a couple of false assumptions there. I'm several generations removed from being an immigrant, not everyone who comments on something they see as wrong with Australia is wanting to make it into another country. Second, not every discussion on issues is negative, which is what I was trying to say in my answer. I love Australia, I think it is a great place to live. I also think people are becoming less patient and less generous with each other, for a multitude of reasons. But to say that's okay, we should all become intolerant of each other as long as we say Australia is great isn't going to resolve anything, and if that is an issue and not merely my opinion, then it goes without being addressed and becomes worse. We, particularly in Victoria, are internationally notorious for our lack of patience and selfish attitudes on the road. There is nothing wrong with talking about it, and perhaps we bring it to the forefront of the national zeitgeist and we start to change it. Exactly what happened with seatbelts, too, by the way.
@@johnt.848 Mate, currently got covid, entirely possible I've made false assumptions. Sorry if I did.
@@johnt.848 Immigrants seem to use their ethnicity as an excuse not to integrate.I live on the same street as an International training institute & the students flagrantly disregard the road rules entering & exiting the establishment & when the Police go & talk to them about their dangerous behaviour in traffic they feign not being able to speak English.
So the Police go & talk to the administrators there & the students get into big trouble because the staff know that the students all can speak English & understand the Police perfectly fine.
the fact coronation drive in Brisbane has come up on here twice is saying something
Is 6:02 Tasmania or something? That mountain range with the fog looks incredible, cant really picture it anywhere like that in Aus mainland. looks like S.A. plates for all the cars there but can't be sure.
North NSW and some parts of QLD have these beautiful mountain veiws too.
Don’t get out much? Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands, Snowy Mountains etc.
@@scottwilliam6141 I don't recognise the plates or the signage on the left at 6:14 thats why I basically wrote off it being any of the eastern states. black & white plates are typically S.A plates and all the cars in this section had those but they don't look exactly the same to me. hard to tell if its black or blue really.
@@MrBungle222
They can buy special plates that have a different colours and custom symbols to a standard plate. Mine's a custom green with a dark blue background to match my utes colour pattern with the name of my farm in caps.
@@dogs-and-destruction-channel Yeah but all the cars there have the same plates, a bit of a stretch.
Second clip = Don't you just love that mentality? Infrastructure put in place to keep traffic flowing smoothly and idiots approach too fast, brake too late and slow down the person with enough brains to drive properly.
brake not break.
@@stendecstretcher5678 It said brake, so I broke it.
@@stendecstretcher5678 /Tired not tried. Fixed
Hahaha that drunk fella in the passenger seat "whhhaata goooose"
You can see an increase (both in these videos and in person on the roads) of people just driving wherever they want, as if they own the road itself, no care for safety or other motorists, no care for the road rules or common sense either.
When cops aren't around, road rules go out the bloody window for some.
Some people should not be behind the wheel at all. They just don't read the markings, everyone just seems to be in a major rush, there is no consideration for other lives. We need more cops on our roads.
i accept that spaghetti junction isnt the most intuitive of intersections, but the heard mentality some drivers exhibit is really worrying. it's like when ms hoover goes "i didn't know we could do that?!" in the simpsons and tears thru and intersection after homer does it.
@@BadDriversOz ahaha yes you're totally right! Stupid homophones! I blame a bit to much Xmas cheer after watching the cricket today 🤪
My other half and I regularly drive from Victorian border to Melbourne return to border. The lack of basic Highway Code knowledge shown by Melbournian drivers is astounding, the extreme lack of patience, pulling over into other people’s safe braking zone, pulling in front of fully loaded trucks in their blind spots, we have been nearly killed quite a few time’s, so people please please if you drive try putting your brain in gear first, then put your vehicle in gear not the other way around.
6:07 Does it say on the box for these eScooters to ride like a f*** head because it seems every state has people like this.
These e-scooters can travel up to 70-80km/h and the riders usually wear no safety gear whatsoever, and when they do(rare) it's just a helmet and that gives bugger all protection.
Give it time, with the way these idiots ride on the roads with zero ₣ϋʢӃs given to theirs and other road users safety, it's just a matter of time before the serious injuries and fatalities pile up.
That e scooter rider was straight up a dick head doing over the posted speed limit for car's
Let alone e scooters law's, passing on the right and going head on with traffic.
This was a Dragon e scooter that has a top speed of 80km/h some have a maximum of 100km/h

14:02 nothing unusual at Fairfield heights was coming out of the same street once I think and a car was turning into it but the car behind them got impatient an over took them also to get into the same street
2:50, Kudos to the pedestrian! Drivers need to start realising that when turning into a side street the CAR must GIVEWAY to the pedestrian!
@@gtv86942 since ages ago. This was NSW so rule 73 applies, in particular 73(6)(b) since the car was making a right turn.
73 GIVING WAY AT A T-INTERSECTION
(1) A driver at a T-intersection without traffic lights or a stop sign, stop line, give way sign or give way line, must give way in accordance with this rule.
(2) If the driver is turning left (except if the driver is using a slip lane) or right from the terminating road into the continuing road, the driver must give way to--
(a) any vehicle travelling on the continuing road (except a vehicle making a U-turn on the continuing road at the T-intersection), and
(b) any pedestrian who is crossing the continuing road at or near the intersection.
(6) If the driver is turning right from the continuing road into the terminating road, the driver must give way to--
(a) any oncoming vehicle that is travelling through the intersection on the continuing road or turning left at the intersection, and
(b) any pedestrian who is crossing the terminating road at or near the intersection.
@@gtv86942 nope
@@gtv86942
Not in NSW. You can end up in jail for not giving way to a pedestrian like that as they're more vulnerable than a car. Unless the guy was J walking illegally which in this case he wasn't.
12:41 Two idiots here, the Ute driver that turned around and went across the grass and the truck driver that blocked the junction, by driving across when the exit was blocked.
@3:43 dog was like..."what're you doing now, silly hooman!"
0:17 what, why stop it there. nooooooo
haha last lady's comment, "he hadn't even dare to look a lady was driving with you". Is that a new rd rule?
Wish they had the area it was filmed, so it can be a drinking game everytime, so if your area comes up you drink 😂
yes... It is pretty big
16:16 looks like a wheel weight came off, I'd be getting their details for insurance!
What is it with people who see something, and just sit there frozen like an idiotic stunned mullet blocking everyone behind them?
Deer in headlight syndrome.
Or, they're called NPC's in the gaming world.
Hello! How do you feel about the international project "Creative Society"?
There may not have been a lot of motorcycles in this clip but their actions go a long way to giving insight into why they are statistically over represented in accidents and fatalities..
People like these mean I'll never be out of a job.
It takes a very special person to write off their car in a carpark.
@@moshesheckel7369 even more special than that!
The guy directing traffic is at the intersection right out the front of the Holden Hill Police station in S.A.
Yeah but he was off duty 😂😂😂.
