J was so distracted by the other driver running the red that he almost did😂
Ye but he didn't so he's a good driver still
@@Raylan_323 not really no. Shouldn’t be distracted to the point he’s half way on the crossing.
@@Raylan_323 In the eyes of road traffic law, no. Excessive use of brakes, driving while distracted and he/she appears to have crossed the line, so had their been an enforcement camera, he/she would have been done for the offence.
Kind of seems they were more concerned with getting the footage saved and reprimanding the other driver than safe driving themselves
@@Raylan_323 It appears to cross the stop line. So no
6:23 ‘J’ should’ve focused more on his driving than the other person’s. Almost ran the light himself
Stopping halfway through the crossing, might as well have not bothered stopping themselves.
But he didn't though did he so what's the problem?
@@Raylan_323 I’ve seen your comments defending him on various comments, you’re definitely the cammer J.🤣🤣🤣
You beat me to it! I even paused the video to come say this exact thing.
The offence is if any part of the vehicle crosses the white light so looks like he is guilty
1:07 Antal B sees problem ahead, uses brake pedal, stops safely, doesn’t blast on the horn. Must be new to this dashcamming lark! 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 nice driving lad
Antal should've blasted his horn and hit him for views
@@CL4SSiCS maybe sounded his horn and opened the drivers door knocking the biker under the wheels of the truck. 😂
@@CL4SSiCS i swear most of this cars have the horn wired to the brake pedal.
It feels ridiculous that I feel compelled to commend Antal B for their sensible driving, anticipation and reaction to the situation as this should be the standard, rather than an exception.
Antal for COTW, doesn't know how he's supposed to drive with a dashcam installed!
(j/k of course. Well done Antal, that's how you diffuse a dangerous situation)
Some worthy candidates for COTW. I'll give it to David J...for being totally mugged off by an OAP pedestrian! 💪
to be fair too many pedestrians make suicidal lemmings seem like the green cross code man (very old comparison I know, as a fun aside the green cross code man played the body of Darth Vader in Star Wars, if he'd had a speaking part Vader would have had a broad Yorkshire accent).
@Stuart. You are old. Even I remember the Green Cross Codes geezer! 😀
@@stuartfaulds1580 looked like the van in front let them cross? Hope you’re aware of the changes to the Highway Code re pedestrians crossing roads?
@@ooohnonotanother Yes, it applies to Junctions turning off the main roads, not the main roads themselves, pedestrian crossings or exits from roundabouts, plus that clip probably pre-dated the updated ADVICE from the Highway Code
@@ooohnonotanother As I already stated I am aware of the Highway Codes ADVICE (NOT LAW) regarding pedestrians crossing roads at Junctions. This does not give the pedestrial carte blanche to wander blindly infront of traffic across a main road, a pedestrian crossing or the exit from a roundabout.
Blue Citroen needs to learn to the rules of the road. The fact there was the need to have signs to point out that both lanes should be used... 🤦♂️
They drive among us.
Highway Code says both lanes and zip . It’s a British thing to be polite.
Makes so much more sense to just let traffic flow in two lanes rather than one big long line
Technically, because the white lines were not blacked out, the lane came to an end and those in the right hand lane are supposed to give way however, some people are just cunts that don't like being passed.
Also technically because the camera was in the left lane and could see the front of the blue car, the cammer should have given way and that ignoring the fact that its an offence to undertake on a UK highway and byway.
The fact that there's clear signs yet this still happens just shows how oblivious most drivers are
6:20 So upset about the other guy running the red light...so he honks and runs the same light 🤣
Except that he didn't run the red light. He did stop - just. 😊
Hello, have you replaced Pikachu yet?
@@franklove9897 He was stopped on the crossing as he had to slam the anchors on he left it that late, he was well over the line
It appears that the cammer crossed the white line on a red traffic signal. This is an offence.
@@Gobtik Also, I think it's against the rules to stop over a crossing, just like it is to stop over a hatched box junction. That's what I was taught, anyway
Surely if only one lane at 9:02 was supposed to be used instead of two they’d have blocked it right from the start? Infuriates me when people do this
Just because they like queuing doesn't mean everyone else has to
Yeah, if there's nothing telling you NOT to use that lane, there isn't any reason to think you can't use it. The fact there's a sign telling people to queue in BOTH lanes removes any doubt, so it's amazing that none of those people in the queue see a problem using only half the available road...
If people merge in turn, like a zip, everyone gets through quicker.
I live there...they open that road so far because of the traffic at rush hour ...it helps stop ppl queuing on the roundabout as you see in the clip there is a roundabout before the road shuts off for roadworks. It's a nightmare...
The worst part was they not only obstructed that lane which wasn't closed, they then decided to cut in front and force someone to let them in further up.
Cowardly Audi driver opening then shutting their door but jumping the red light when they realised they'd have to look someone in the eye.
I think he had to open the door because he did a smelly fart and needed to let it out before he gassed himself :-)
Noticed the camera?
Anna D was initially at fault for driving at almost 40 in a 30. Most of us speed a little from time to time but at least drive with the knowledge of what the speed limit is and act accordingly
Roman gets TOTW for me, some clearly confused driver drives on to the train tracks which is obviously incredibly dangerous and you watch them start to reverse but don't let them so you can save 20 seconds
@cookiemonster think we will have to agree to disagree. No idea why your first thought would be that they are intoxicated but even if they were the danger here is the car getting stuck on the tracks and potentially the barriers coming down causing an obstruction for train which potentially has 100s of passengers onboard. It does matter in this situation if the driver is drunk, on drugs, confused, elderly, young, just a poor driver, made a mistake or anything else, the priority is to get the car off the tracks and by Roman passing the car is stopped them from reversing and there is a chance cars behind will follow Roman because they didn't see what happened first hand and by the time they notice a car in a very strange situation it is too late for them to stop safely.
it did seem stupid to do that
Drivers that don’t understand both-lane queuing should have to resit their test. It’s indicative of small-picture thinking, not realising that by queuing in both and merging you reduce the overall tailback and prevent it from affecting junctions behind.

Those that type incorrectly with case should be sent back to school
@@darrenpardoe Do you internet much? The switch between lower case and upper case indicates the quoting of an idiot...
@@sideshow4417 You missed the irony.
@@darrenpardoe what irony?
@@darrenpardoe hope this circles back and clips you in the head . How can something so simple go right over your bonce ?
7:30 maybe it's just me, Roman, but if I ever saw someone in front of me make as blatant and potentially life-threatening a mistake as that, I'd probably hold back and allow them as best I could to back themselves out of it. Rather than go round them and let the (presumable) line of traffic behind me follow suit.
The tosser stayed behind him long enough to film it, only blocking his exit once the other car started reversing back after realising the mistake, Roman what a muppet
I thought the exact same thing yeah he fucked up but don't then stop him from coming off the tracks.
And he kept honking even after the driver realised his mistake, what a bellend.
Exactly my thoughts the person was most likely following Satnav.
@John McGrady that's a point, I hadn't considered what could have led to the mistake in the first place. But yep, if you're in an unfamiliar area and get told to turn left, what else are you going to do?
8:46
This might be one of the most frustrating things that can happen, the sheer length of it. I would be so furious.
Got to reveal them as a hypocrite in the end.
The temptation to jump out, nab the twats keys, walk back to the giant red signs and tell them they can have their keys back once they read the sign aloud... The shame would be a beautiful thing to behold.
Should lose his license. People with this kind of attitude have no business being on the road.
This road is Toneway in Taunton, Somerset where I live. this road has been nothing but chaos when rush hour hits with these roadworks. All of that just to put a few pedestrian crossings in at the junction up ahead where the lanes merge. Luckily I don't drive so I don't have to deal with twats like this guy.
@@tpm2056 I just hope that one day they try to do that to the wrong person, either an unmarked police car or someone with roid rage would do just fine.
6:21 bro you nearly missed the red light yourself you got so distracted haha
He did. It’s an offence to cross the white stop line before the crossing which he’s basically crossed the full crossing part anyway
The absolute irony of that bellend in the citreon having to jump in at the last minute and cut another driver up just so he could prevent someone else merging in turn correctly!
But it wasn't correct to "merge" at that point anyway, cammer is supposed to join the queue...
@@BlueAxeRacer Guess that `When queuing, traffic should use both lanes` is too advanced to understand then?
@@BlueAxeRacer as others have said, just stop trolling the comments. You know full well what's gone on here but yet you're on the wind up and getting some weird kick out of it.
@@BlueAxeRacer wrong
Lets say you have 100 cars on the same road, with roadworks - an experiment if you will, no cars added to it ofc, just the same 100 - mix of trucks, vans, cars, taxis etc
Experiment 1: All use 1 lane - takes 10 mins to get past the roadworks
Experiment 2: Split almost evenly across both lanes till merge - takes no more than 4 mins tops
Simple really.
10:00 Citroen driver definitely not a credit to our nation.
He absolutely is. Sick of arseholes like this tearing down the outside to get in front.
@@eveythingthatsadam
Do you know what ‘use both lanes’ and ‘ merge in turn’ means?
@@eveythingthatsadam You are just a bad driver, are you scared to use all the available road space or something?
@@eveythingthatsadam found the Shitreon driver folks!
A flag shagger driving a FRENCH car, probably on mobility as well
@@eveythingthatsadam you mean like you are supposed to do? You are supposed to use both lanes even right up to the lane closure that is just a fact
That Amatsu Chocobo one was really boiling my blood, there's a literal sign that says use 2 lanes to queue, he thinks he's being a big hero
I know, right. Was gutted the driver managed to get ahead. Was hoping Amatsu was gonna block them. Would've been sweet 😄
Anyone flying a big Union flag from their car is highly likely to be a bit of an idiot...I imagine he was in a rush to get home to watch GB News and get angry about immigrants. Highly ironic that he was driving a Citroen though - surely he should be patriotic and drive a British car!
Man, I've seen so many of these arseholes at pretty well everywhere there is a situation like that, even with signs like that. They view themselves as some kind of warrior, that guy obviously fought in Normandy, against Napoleon. I am so waiting to see the clip where they do that to an unmarked police car. It is obstruction, which is illegal.
He is using both lanes like you are supposed to. The Citroen driver was the dick at the start. He was a dick later on, but people don't have the right to block other road users because they stupidly think using both lanes is "pushing in."
Clear case of drivers being morons and not reading signs
I could actually feel my blood pressure rising as I watched that blue citreon sitting out there and I thought justice would be done as he was forced to go behind the cammer then that bloody van let them in 🤬
1:10 antal b I’m so glad you’re one of the sane dashcam drivers who brake’s, rather than racing into situations blasting the horn! Well done 👍🏻
Stunningly well managed. But not very entertaining..
Brakes.
@@Nickbaldeagle02 are you really going to be that petty?
@@scottlaaa petty? It's a glaring, heinous grammatical error.
@@Nickbaldeagle02 it was my phone it’s really petty to be honest.
It amazes me how many people don't use both lanes until the merge in turn, it causes gridlock further back as the queue length doubles. There were about 400 morons there sat in that 1 lane ignoring the very clear signage.
I agree, I don’t tend to do it on smaller roads but that was a massive tailback and even had signs specifically telling you what to do and people still ignored it
That’s why my bro said public needs to thank his intelligence as he prevented more traffic buildup by using these lanes
I reported a lorry driver to his company for being 'lane police' about 7 years ago for doing this - he blocked both lanes 800m before the merge in turn then deliberately tried to squash me into the barriers when I was slowly crawling alongside at 4mph. Company just said 'they would have words with him' - not really sure anything happened.
Try push in front of me and BEEEEEEP
People are just lemmings and just want to join a queue when they see one.
Normal people:
Incident happens - react accordingly
Dash Cammers:
Incident happens - don't react, just blast horn and do anything you can for a good clip.
@cookiemonster I'm talking specifically about people that blast the horn and make no attempt to do ANYTHING else
@@eveythingthatsadam depends on the situation, if you're plodding along at 30mph and Doris pulls out in front of you at 5mph without enough time to react, what would you do?
@@rhodrijohn7411 lets just put it this way. If you've got time to beep, you've sure as hell got time to react instead
@@eveythingthatsadam what do you have against the use of a horn? Are you one of the idiots that pull out and get tooted?
The Citroen driver. One of those drivers that has to have a flag or something stuck on the top of their car so they can find it in a supermarket car park
A flag shagger driving a FRENCH car... says it all about modern Britain
just report the f**kers, at the very least it wait there time having to speak to the cops, worst case , Careless and inconsiderate driving
Unlimited fine 3-9 points, or Wilful Obstruction of a Highway with Motor Vehicle

J - Getting so wound up at the car in front of him going through a red light, he almost goes through it himself, classic.
According to the law, he did run it cause he crossed the white line 😂😂😂
David J you deserved those V's from that old couple.
A van driver actually being courteous and it's not like he suddenly did an emergency stop right in front of you either. Have some patience..
And it’s the new Highway Code guidance
@@rat.1 Even so, that was inexcusable behaviour. The highway code changes just underline that people should be courteous in these instances.
@@BR0SE1DON Shouting doesn't make you right.
@@ReeceJCoxy wrong. Pedestrians have right of way when crossing junctions, not roundabouts. How stupid and dangerous would that be?
@@peterwhittle522 Yeah, stopping like that, just off a roundabout to let people cross is dangerous for sure. If the new guidelines say we should be doing that I would have a serious look at whose coming up with this crap and fire them.
0:49 UK Medic - Before being told you're a medic driver I really thought you were being one of the worst drivers I've ever seen on here haha
2:35 David J - Don't tell me that's you beeping, not only was that a polite gesture by the van that cost you no more than 5 seconds, but the recent highway code changes you might want to brush up on
4:06 Andy - I'd argue you're both at fault for going so fast on a road that width
6:25 J - How did you also almost miss the red light?
Being a medic doesn't mean you can drive on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic
@@andrewbradley1753 "Sorry you kid is dead, Andrew Bradley said I couldn't drive on the wrong side of the road, like we're trained to"....
Being a medic driver with blues on means nothing I’m afraid it still your responsibility to drive with care and attention , the fact that he tried to bully oncoming traffic shows a lot , most prob on way to pick up some dinner like most blues I see .
@@andrewbradley1753 as a blue light driver - that was a shocking bit of driving for sure!
…’on coming car fails to yield’ - no… you’re just expecting everyone to slam on the breaks for you.
Blue lighting should not massively inconvenience other road users or put them in unnecessary danger.
Silly bit of driving.
@@MrCalldean sorry your kid is dead because a medic was driving on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic and crashed head on into his car killing him instantly.
The pedestrian in the David J clip makes a good point.
It seems from these collections of dash cam clips that in Russia you get random drunken mayhem, and in the USA full-on war zone driving and apocalyptic crashes... but in the UK a parade of endless pointless and spiteful micro-aggressions, including by the cammers themselves.
UK is home to the most petty bitterness in any country anywhere
@@ElementsMMA How do you know? Have you lived in every country?
@@deltanovember1672 most of them, yes.
😂 Yes, it's as though the cars in the USA don't have brakes or the drivers don't know what that pedal does cos they do steamroll into some full-on crashes.
In the US, each area has its own unique terrible style of driving. Where I live, 10 cm of space between your bumper and the car ahead of you at a traffic light seems acceptable by many. In the south, the rules are you drive either 40 miles over the speed limit or drive half the amount. There is no in between. 🙄 On the west coast (California and the like), it is legal for motorcyclists to drive in between two cars that are next to each other. I've driven there many times, and the overpopulation corresponds to terrible traffic, which leads to terrible decisions. US citizens are not known for having any patience at all. And you don't want to drive in New York City, full stop.
That guy who almost drove on the train tracks. Oh my.
Probably blindly following his satnav lol
Taking their satnav commands too litterally I suspect.
And the cammer carrying on rather than waiting back to give the other driver room to fix their (possibly deadly) mistake...
All roads lead to "Roman"
Daily occurrence in Manchester. Trams are forever being delayed by cars on the tracks.
Why are so many people surprised when they have to take evasive action whilst driving too fast on country roads? Yes the other cars were in the wrong, but halve your speed and you halve the problem.
It is a Speed Limit NOT a TARGET. People should drive to the conditions which includes how far ahead they can see.
@@CDB8939 well said
@cookiemonster you clearly haven’t read what I’ve written at all.
@@CDB8939 and if everyone did the speed limit there'd be far less traffic than one arse bandit plodding along 30 below the limit
Absolutely. It only took a couple of near misses for me to learn this lesson.
David J , You deserved the two fingered salute! WOTW
UK Medic. @0:48
As I'am an Advanced qualified driver I'm about to take you down a peg.
You need to have a re-test and training. That was shocking.
You could clearly see the overtake was not on. You are approaching a sweeping bend with 3 cars and a small gap infront of car 3. Fine taking car 3 Youd get away with. You failed to look far ahead before the bend, otherwise youd have seen the immediate hazard approaching
The White BMW didnt react as quick as the smaller car and so the wide junction on the left was not an opportunity for them to use. Frustrating as it may be you cant then force then onto the verge.
Oncoming traffic do not have to yield to you, one because it causes more accidents than it solves and two because you end up putting yourself in positions of no return as you nearly did here.
The road was straightening out, there was ample opportunity to complete the overtake 5 seconds later and, would have been far more progressive as a result.
Unfortunately it seems a common theme with first responder cars where I live and work. Rather than follow correct blue light training they think blues gives them carte blanche to carve through vehicles regardless of safety.
@@BrianGriffinQuahog Indeed.
Some need reminding of the use of blues saves sometimes only 1-2, minutes maximum in a typical journey. CPR call, yes the pressures on and is time critical.
However, if you crash thats several resources diverted and that CPR calls waiting even longer.
Ive driven to jobs that warrant blue lights, but ive driven without them, albeit it was an urban environment to this, and I still got there before the over enthusiatics.
I'd entirely agree. It's up to the emergency medic driver to overtake only when it's safe to do so, and the oncoming car was braking quite hard, just not enough to come to a stop before it reached the Mercedes, and I can understand why somebody doesn't come to an emergency stop on a bend with a queue of cars behind. So the result is that he had to wait behind the Mercedes for a couple of seconds. Maybe the oncoming car might have seen what was happening earlier, but he/she can't see the brake lights on the Mercedes so see where it was stopping.
A minor thing in the big picture and if everybody could read the thoughts of others then you might get the perfect passage. As it is, not worth the video time.
The car driver in the last clip needs to realise that van drivers are completely exempt from stopping at junctions, roundabouts and all other give way signs!
Nah nah this van was silver not white so he is ok haha
The idiot in the Citroen at 9:04 clearly does not understand what 'merge in turn' means and thinks it's their place to 'police' that lane. Both lanes should be in use in situations like this. Captain Citroen police could do with a lesson on the Highway Code. To be fair, most people could do with a refresher on 'merge in turn'.
I've have put a LARGE dent in the side of his door.
@@jwalker7567 You could argue that but you'd be wrong. It's obstruction and it's illegal.
@@jwalker7567 Realistically, people should be in both lanes right until the merge though then merge one from each lane at a time.
But, as everyone already got in one lane so early, it makes the cammer look like the jerk I guess. :)
Hopefully the vehicle and it's driver will be identified by some local residents who've seen this clip and being responsible adults they plaster his vehicle with post-it notes showing the "use both lanes" sign and a link to this video - just like that old video of disabled parking abuser's vehicle plastered in disabled parking signs.
It was class how the camera vehicle wouldn’t let the other car back in 😂

@@Chalto I refer you to Rule 8.
And a perfect example of how they don't work.

This was my favourite bit and I had Morgan freeman in my head saying “it was at this moment…..”
Lucky the guy didn’t stop or he would of ran into him!
Not sure I'd posted that if I was J
07:36, can’t believe the camera car continued so closely behind the car that turned on the railway to the point of blocking their path to reverse back to safety! Too many just look at the danger but aren’t proactive about it nowadays…
2:30 You've not heard about the changes to the highway code. That van did what the highway code now says you should do in England, Scotland and Wales. If you don't like it you will need to drive to parliament and beep your horn there.
@@jav.7611 it does- just had my driving test and that's what my examiner said
Yup. This is why it's an absolutely stupid rule. Just because it's well intentioned doesn't make it a good idea.
@cookiemonster Either that's true.. at which point it's really poor wording in the rules as a roundabout is a type of 'Junction'... OR it's not true and rule H2 is still a steaming pile of sh*t for the reasons you listed.
Either way rule H2 is a steaming pile of sh*t.
2:40 did the cammer actually honk at a car stopping for pedestrians? And he was still thinking he was in the right?
@Hello RUclips The pedestrians didn't look American to me. And it looks like he stuck 2 fingers up, not the the middle one.
@@davetrousers 2 fingers in Britain means the middle finger

Yea, do 60 on the straights and slow do for corners.

That needs reporting to the DVSA, dangerous driving. Not that anything would happen.
I think simple signage that appeals to British sensibilities is needed: “queue in both lanes, merge in turn” and/or popularise the term “zip merge”.
@@Batters56 there were signs to say to use both lanes and merge in turn yet no one seemed to listen. Signs won’t do anything. People are stupid

Looks like they're setting up for a TPAC, they're also very obviously reflective and bright, almost like it's done on purpose. Any driver with an shred of common sense would give them a bit of space, but the dashcammer, like you, seems to be a bit dim.

Remember folks, when approaching a roundabout, accelerate hard and forget about anyone else on on near the roundabout, you have right of way, so just blast horn and worst case smash them out the way.
i thought that is what all brits do......and also never EVER yield or stop for anybody else.....:-)

5:00 Anna D. Oh love, where to begin? First of all, you’re doing 37mph in what looks to be a residential street so usually a 30mph limit. Second, you can see that turning car MILES away so let them join, slot in behind them and stop making a drama out of nothing! 🤡🤡🤡🤡
true but the Audi driver was still more stupid...
I agree, that beep was completly unneccessary, but the real drama queen was in the car ahead.
Think David J was one of the 1/3 people who didn't want to read the new highway code 🤦♂️
I guess you are also one of them. The new rule about giving way to pedestrians is only advisory, not mandatory and stopping like that van did with traffic behind is going to cause a crash.
The clip was from last October before the new rules came in but ye, he has no patience or awarness
@@danielwilson5102 the new rules hadn't come into effect at the time of the video
most people haven't read it since passing their test!
This is the important bit of the Highway Code - "The rules in The Highway Code do not give you the right of way in any circumstance, but they do advise you when you should give way to others. Always give way if it can help to avoid an incident." There is no mention of Pedestrians having priority at Roundabouts
That second to last clip with the 'use both lanes when queueing' signs is on the Toneway in Taunton and it it blows my mind every time how people just ignore the signs and ALL QUEUE in the left hand lane. I just sail down the outside lane and merge at the end and probably save 10-15 minutes every time.
Totw goes to fatbloke he drove into a totally inevitable situation then acted like a nob
UK Medic….you are far too close to the rear of those vehicles and choosing to start your manoeuvre on a bend, at a junction was a terrible idea. Bad moves! Siren off, hang back, wait for the straight and then into a dominating offside position.
As for the police car: they appear to want the van. The police vehicles are doing a classic bit of ‘cover both options’.
I’m also confused by their comment of oncoming car failing to yield - where did they expect it to go?
@@Silverbrick27 Indeed! Needs to redo their response course!
Agreed, poor manoeuvre. We have all made mistakes when on blues but to throw it on here and blame others is very poor judgement. Traffic does not have to 'yeild' to you, it's just nice when they do.
Still think the BMW (the leader on the left) failed really hard with giving way, cars behind pulled into the dotted line area no problem, BMW drove past it and even then refused to go over the solid white line
@@Silverbrick27 its a emergency vehicles who has blues on
02:45...... Why are you beeping at the car in front, if you were observing correctly you would have seen the hand gestures between the car in front and the pedestrians, you utter tool
Amatsu, you were doing the right thing mate. People who block the lanes are nobs
nah he was tailgating
Awesome video
1:01
UK Medic, you need to go back to your driver training dept.
A very poor example and attitude of EM driving technique.
You have not allowed any of the drivers time to react to your presence on the road.
After the first overtake you have caused that driver to brake rapidly as you have returned to the nearside as there was hardly any space for you to fit into and the vehicles in front were beginning to brake because of your approach to them.
You then continue to force your way through against the oncoming traffic, which doesn't HAVE to yield to you.
Not only that, the first car is displaying an 'L' plate in the middle of the bonnet/hood, so thank yourself lucky they even reacted and moved over.
Not good.
He certainly does: the line in his commentary “Despite seeing my blue lights …” is an assumption he really shouldn’t be making.
1:06 No drama, no anger. Nicely handled
Very badly handled more like because this sort of clip doesn’t belong in this channel. It’s all action or go home.
@@Alex-hn3lc Lol
Compared with the anger displayed in situations where a collision wasn't even close to happening.
Hey Roman 7:32, so the other driver was a complete plonker. Yes, we get that, but was it really sensible to push forward and trap him there just so you could demonstrate your own impatience and lack of driving skill?
Ummm, YES!!!
Always new ad-free video ❤️
So John G at 1:19 was so inconvenienced by the other driver, he overtakes and starts to brake check..... Pillock
It really amazes me how many people are submitting clip of others offending, when they're not entirely blameless themselves.
"Look madam,You cannot drive your vehicle on the pavement."
"But it's an off roader,so why can't I?"
2:22 - One of the things I have learned from watching these videos is how glad I am that I no longer drive a motorcycle.
If you used to drive a motorcycle, it's probably good that you don't attempt to ride them anymore.
@@wirdy1 Beat me to it 😂
Dear DashCams , see if SpecSavers would like to advertise on your channel. Lots of contributors apparently incapable of seeing emerging or merging vehicles.
9:09 ....Blue Citroën WA67 TXD... _the driver is an utter f'kwit!_
I passed my theory/hazard thanks to these 💪🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️
7:35 when the satnav says "turn left" and you left your brain at home.
3:15 ‘forced onto broken concrete’ 😂😂 you wasn’t forced, you could have slowed down (both probably could have really), where was your expecting the tanker to go? By the looks of it there wasn’t any more room for him to go over to the side
"Don't do it, don't do it." The cammer pleads, as he proceeds to maintain his speed.
rather than actually assessing and slowing to let them out. another "Professional" DRIVER.
love people like J at 6:22 too focussed on beeping his horn
watching these as a sixteen year old not yet learning to drive & taking notes for the dos & donts of the road
1:41 By not slowing down & following the van & patrol-cars, that really was a missed opportunity by Martin R to capture some really interesting footage!
Yes. He mutters "shocking driving" too. On the face of it correct, but surely they're about to stop the van.
@@paulcook7426 what's "shocking" about it?
1:35 That's Brierley Hill* where half of the drivers seem to have found their driving licence in a cornflakes box.
*The pub opposite used to be called the Teaser and it was the first place where I saw topless bar maids. It was also the last place I saw topless barmaids because I found out that they added about 40p to a pint when beer was only £1 pint anywhere else.
Me ole shagging ground, used to have to go down there once a week in 80 from Dudley Tech.
Same any where now, theres that many imports presumably passed a sub standard driving tests and being allowed over here. Taxi drivers namely should see em round Telford FFS.
John G - that was some glorious dash cam driver driving there! Could see what was happening a mile off, had ample time to react, but still wanted to get as close as possible to the offending car. Boy that was a close one! The overtake at the end to regain road position was the cherry on top!
0:47 UK Medic erratic behaviour might kill someone, just because he has his blues on doesn't mean he can push everyone out the way. Due care still needs to be in place, causing cars to panic break could cause an even worse accident than the one hes going to. Im truly surprised he shared this clip thinking he was in the right.
The medic driver IS in the right...... All drivers and riders are to yield as soon as time allows. No excuses........
@@glockeva1 WRONG! They still have to abide by the road traffic act and in this situation they were well off the mark interms of safe driving.
People can't just react instantaneously, and you can't expect that at all. Sorry but the driver bullied their way through and made a couple of errors increasing the chances of a crash because of their impatience. Should drivers be a bit more aware of emergency vehicles, absolutely, but making a presumption of a driver doing x and then pressing on bullying people to make a hard stop is how people get killed, this was way below par driving by the emergency operator and they need retraining an an attitude adjustment!
@@ynotnilknarf39 i disagree... Although the overtaking point was not ideal its evident that the cars did not help, them slowing down was a a good indicator of panic and no knowledge of what to do next. If they could not pull over immediately then they should maintain legal speed until able to do so
@Follow the howl the cars clearly did not know how to react, thats the real concern
@@glockeva1 actually medics don’t have the same rights as police and ambulances. They still have to adhere to the rules of the road and drive safely and they aren’t even allowed to jump red lights.
J (6:14) so outraged at the white 4x4 jumping the red light, he almost fails to stop for it himself. :D
03:00 Guy spots a potential hazard in the distance. Anticipates what the driver is likely to do. Does absolutely bugger all about it (change lane safely, slow down etc) and then gets the arse when said driver does as expected. What a clown. At least he managed to make sure his horn worked and he got a clip uploaded.
Wasn’t there a car on his outside? And to be fair he reacted when the van did pull out and number one: he didn’t hit him! We’ve seen some shocking emerges from lay-bys on this channel recently.
what was he meant to do. there were cars overtaking him, he had to brake which is what he did
@@xeuxis8892 he could have slowed down. The van made a perfectly legal manoeuvre. Guy was just looking for content.
@@ashg9023 what are you on about. He did slow down LMAO. And perfectly legal manoeuvre? He pulled out in front of someone on a busy duel carriageway how the fuck are you trying to justify that. If that’s what you consider perfectly legal then I hope I never encounter you on the road
He was in a lorry and there were cars on the outside. Wasn't much more he could have done
I love how J has a go at the SUV @6:22 for running the red and he than forgets to stop at it himself :)
11:06 … finally, a stretch of road I recognise (the one-way, going down Meadow Rd from the A13). Used to walk along Church Rd to school each day
Ok here’s a comment without the Citroen or letter J featuring…
08:24 This seems to come up often. You have to be so careful of people turning right in this situation. They think the car turning into their road will shield them, but if the car makes the turn quickly, they’re in trouble. I tend to slow a little in this situation and expect a turning vehicle to be behind the van.
And as for the Citroen (which couldn’t go unmentioned really)… 🙇🏻. Get these people off our roads, or at least get them to act as vigilantes for stuff that’s right and important.
Yes but that's because you have some common sense and rightly assume the other driver hasn't seen you because of the turning van.
The white VW driver has no business behind the wheel of an automobile 🤦🏼♂️
2:27 Under the new hierarchy Highway Code rules the van driver ahead turning left at a junction might well be doing the correct thing by stopping to let pedestrians waiting to cross the road. However ridiculous it seems.
Yay, now we're gonna have a load of jobless bums jumping out infront of our cars for some compensation.
The pedestrian had a point.
The “oncoming car” did nothing wrong, you’re not supposed to stop for emergency vehicles, it causes more problems and obstructions. You’re supposed to make room for them to pass and move over, not stop dead and/or pull up on the pavement. The problem was caused by the BMW coming to a complete stop
I thought Martin R was gonna get TPAC'd
They were probably targeting the van
Yeah, it might not have been very good from Martin R's point of view but a police car pulling in front of you with another one close behind probably calls for a bit of restraint rather than pressing on. Definitely let them get on with their job and get out of their way.
YES! Definitely had the same thought, especially when the X5 pulled alongside!
5:05 Anna D, I like how you raced towards the guy pulling out really smart of you. BTW you should be expecting things like this to happen and plan ahead accordingly. Not saying the other driver was in the right but you just made it worse.
And she needs to learn the speed limit, if she was not exceeding 30mph, it may not have been an issue.
Didn't see Anna racing toward anybody. Saw some twat pull out dangerously and then brake check her though.
Speeding? It's a 40mph zone
@@shckrr Excessive speed for the conditions, busy urban road, 40mph isn't appropriate for the conditions in ANY situation, she had opportunity to brake earlier and ease off the gas but didn't.
Actually Anna shows poor awareness and borderline careless driving. The car was already 1/2 way out and was making a move at the start of the clip ... it would only slow her down a couple of seconds to back of and let the car in. You need to be a better driver to fix other errors .... but there is this mentality of "I'll honk and save the clip for RUclips" which really bothers me.
Nice to see even the police keeping up the BMW stereotype 😅
Clearly not mate
Nah they both used indicators pal
@@m-ways6711 haha, fair point!
Only two clips in and I am already at a loss for words. Both times I just said "Wha-... how?! WHY?"
Seems like I am up for a real treat in this compilation.
Lol at the guy opening his door, ohhh scary!!
Then had to go through a red light to run away 😂
@2:32 David J showing about as much respect and consideration for pedestrians as Kurt Zouma does for his cat...
Pedestrians do not have priority on a roundabout also blocking the road is an offence.
Man I was so hoping that jerk in the Citroën ended up behind the cammer after being a self appointed queue policeman.
Karleigh missing a chance of a classic "You can't park there mate"
To the driver who turned onto a railway line. Hand your license in to DVLA immediately for the good of mankind
I almost drove into a shipping lane once. Easily done lol
Not sure the cammer helped much by trapping him on there when he way trying to reverse back out!
What amused me is the driver behind immediately went to block their exit route.
J honking the horn at a car running a red light and goes over the line himself 🤣🤣
Except they didn't. I have that same dash cam and the cammer did stop behind the line, but as someone said - just. They have a wide angle lens dash cam so it makes the image distorted and make it look like they're closer or over the line than they actually are.
@@Highran56 I get what you mean about wide lenses but it seriously does seem like they braked very sharply and go over the line.
@@leewolf6434 braked sharply yes. Over the line no. It looks like they’re driving a fairly small car so the bonnet wouldn’t have been that big for it to go over the line.
@@Highran56 maybe 🤷♂️. Still, not a smart move from them.
Anna D at 5:09 there were other cars in front, it’s not like you had to slam your brakes on. It’s dickish behaviour to brake check, but that was one of the most pointless honks I’ve seen.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ He was under the 40 mph limit for that road, when the car pulled out in front of him and didn't accelerate up to speed rapidly enough, causing him to have to brake quite significantly. He'd already had to slow to about 20 mph before the driver brake-checked him.
The driver that pulled out is 100% at fault, deserved to get honked, and frankly deserves to be given a ticket for driving without due care, and a telling off for road rage.
@@fredmercury1314 I think we found Anna D’s RUclips account….
@@FIFFAN18 I'm just surprised Anna is a "he".
Nice to see a fellow Final Fantasy fan on here today !
8.52 eyyyy thats home! Toneway is a right pain for terrible driving since they started doing up the area. Some right gits, ive seen multiple times people gave blocked both lanes like that! Then even madder maneuvers up at sainsburys roundabout.
2:40 I laughed at that guy giving the cammer the finger. 😆
Even more so when you realise it's now in the highway cone and pedestrians have priority so the driver better get used to it
@@cantbearsedmechanics mmmmm highway cone - lovely with some raspberry sauce.
@@cantbearsedmechanics doesn't apply to roundabouts. As the pedestrians weren't already crossing the van should not have stopped.
@@cantbearsedmechanics do your research, roundabouts don't count
@@Echoj2 It does apply to roundabouts. Roundabouts are a road junction and the van was turning left off of the junction. You should give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross when turning left or right from a junction (according to the highway code changes). Remember this is a "should", so in some cases where it could be dangerous to stop suddenly you may proceed with care. Exactly the same as giving way to buses about to pull out of a bus stop; you should give way to them, except if doing so would be dangerous (for example someone tailgating you)
I'd like to also add that this clip was made before the highway code changes. Even so, the van driver was being courteous by allowing the pedestrians to cross, and the cam car should have been following at a distance to stop safely if the van had to stop. Imagine if a child ran out infront of the van, for example. If the cam car hits the van then it is the cam car who would pick up the bill.
1:50 cheers for that clip of absolutely nothing. Must’ve been a slow day.
9:02 Such a passionate citizen of the UK that he buys *CHECKS COMPANY DETAILS* a French car!
Good for u grandad
