Australian Road Rules are vague on how long you have to indicate once a vehicle is moving; "signal for long enough to give sufficient warning to other drivers and pedestrians". But I agree a reasonable interpretation of that situation would be that the police vehicle did not give sufficient warning. What we don't know is why the police pulled them over. I think it may be more likely to be due to speed. There was a lot of road works passed so likely the speed limit was reduced and that is what they were pulled over for.

7:25 - I'm not sure what the person did wrong, unless there's a rule for that road I'm not aware of. Looks more like the cop had a bruised ego about him trying to pass.
The driver was getting impatient and trying to weave, tailgating and driving recklessly - I see it all the time here. Overtaking on the left is a no-no, hence why there's also anger when cars drive slowly in the right/overtaking lane.
@@WilliamOwyong But that's what doesn't make sense. Yeah, he was generally being an ass, but he got into the right lane to pass, isn't that legal? It's confusing. In the US, passing on the right (your left) is taboo for sure, but not inherently illegal.
@@matrixphijr I get that, but the driver was still driving dangerously, and passing on the right after trying to pass on the left and tailgating is still a no-no. If the officer was kind they'd probably just pull them over, get them to calm down a bit, and issue a warning. Traffic jams suck for everyone.
10:17 I'd argue what the police did there was far more dangerous than the pansy little burnout they were chasing matey for. The driver coming the other way could have changed lanes into their path. They overtook (on a solid line) a car which was indicating to change lanes into their path and they were clearly doing well over the posted speed limit. They should be making the roads safer, not driving dangerously and justifying it because some dick lit their tyres up for a few seconds.
Exactly what I was thinking. Cop car blew through that intersection on the wrong side of the road with no lights on all for a little tyre squeal, crazy.
@@Illusionyary Yeah, I suppose it's what happens when people are trained to believe that the ends justify the means. Rubber bullets and tear gas to save you from getting poorly anyone?
I agree the cops did the wrong thing for not having lights and or siren, but that is forgiven by most people who want to see these hoons lose their car. Honestly, "CRASH 3" for a number plate?

@@AnotherDoug Plot twist: CRASH3 is a Victorian Police highway patrol blitz squad (Think QLD's Police FATAL4 custom plate), has borrowed a 300C from NSW Highway Patrol, was just testing out if it had a line lock feature.. how funny would that be.
Additional fun fact: police are exempt from the road rules even if they are driving without lights or sirens (provided "in the circumstances, it is reasonable" that they do not use their lights or siren).
Love the fact that "Instant Karma" is the same in multiple languages :D. Not sure what the silver car did that was illegal (assuming generally being a knob isn't illegal) at 7:26 but the cop definitely cut him off without lights of sirens going at 7:31.
The silver car at 7:26 cut across multiple lanes at once which is illegal ( atleast in VIC anyway). Correct way would to indicate and change lanes once, then wait momentarily and repeat. Cop probably cut him off to give them a chance to not be a knob
@@HUMANSALAd666 so what the cop did at 7:50 would be illegal then? I can understand if it was for speeding but the cop was the more dangerous driver in that video

@@chrisco7 not 100% sure but since they pulled them over right after i feel like it would be treated the same as if they were to speed up without lights/siren if the police were in pursuit/pulling someone over

7:25 tbh silver car didn't really do anything wrong.. it's almost entrapment with the late change by the unmarked car and a brake check too. Silver car decided to move away from what appears to be an erratic and potentially road raged driver..
0:52 The Merc wasn't trying to run the red, and I doubt the cop pulled him up. The cop had his lights and sirens on coming into the intersection as if they were already on there way somewhere and needed to get through, the Merc was simply trying to make space. DC didn't have any intention in stopping for the approaching Police car either..
The cop did have lights on, but I could not hear any siren. It is a good question though as I'm trying to figure this one out for sure too. But if you are in the right hand turn lane at a red light and there's a cop car with lights on behind you, it would not make sense for you to move into the intersection where there's right-left traffic going. The cop could easily mount the median strip and drive in the oncoming lane if it had to get through the intersection. Again, I'm trying to figure this one out, so let me know if you think I'm wrong.
@@Rbraden I can hear a siren when the cop pulls into the intersection, but I could not hear a siren beforehand, when the Merc pulled into the intersection.

@@LHyoutube The cop car moved from the middle lane into the left lane at 7:28 when the silver sedan was already in the left lane and closely behind it. I would not hesitate in calling that illegal and dangerous driving from the cop car. Granted, while I saw the silver sedan indicate when switching from the right lane to the middle lane, I didn't see its indicator when moving from the middle lane to the left lane (though the indicator light on that car is hard to see in this video), and I'm wondering whether the cop busted the silver sedan for in effect tailgating the cop car (after the cop car moved in front of it) or the other grey car in the middle lane at 7:41. Yes, I'm aware that cops have an allowance to break the law when justified, but the cop car seemed to initiate the situation. @PiggyPigFace might be correct in that the cop wanted to bust them for something else.
After years of watching these thinking that Aussies can just drive wherever they want, on the sidewalks, on the other side of the road, go through red lights, it's interesting to see that there is some traffic enforcement after all!

Can someone explain how come there's quite a lot of BMW police cruisers in Australia especially in the past 2 years? And they're even BMW 5 series. Thought they're too expensive to be used as police cruisers?
Covid fines payed for those fancy BMW they should be driving Volkswagen or Skoda station wagons they don't deserve our tax $$ put towards top of the range BMW give the pigs poverty spec 🤣
I read that the NSW police requested quotes from Mercedes & BMW (& maybe others) for non luxury versions of their cars built to police specs. Mercedes weren't interested but BMW were fine with doing that which is why they have the BMWs. The Chrysler SRTs I think are a similar deal plus they are somewhat quick for highway patrol use. The Mustang was ruled out because their safety rating is only 2 or 3 & government cars are required to be 5 star safety rating.
I'm not entirely sure about that. I see the cop car had its lights on before that vehicle moved into the intersection, but I wonder if it had been chasing it from earlier on? If a cop car is in the right hand lane and there's no oncoming traffic, they'd simply move into the oncoming lane to overtake stopped traffic. Look, you might be right, but it would seem a bizarre and dangerous way to make way for a cop car.
00:55 When you play it back you can see the white sedan had the police car approaching from behind with sirens and flashing lights going already, they were trying to make way for the police by going into the intersection.
Lights were flashing but siren didn't start until 1:07. In Australia (except for Qld and South Australia), you are not supposed to break any road rules when giving way to emergency vehicles under lights or siren. Even in Qld and South Australia, what the Mercedes driver did was wrong as those states say you can break road rules to give way "but only if it is safe". The Mercedes did not do anything safely in this clip.
@@AnotherDoug I'd say cop had sirens on ( barely audible but faintly I think I hear it before the recording car gets to the lights) then cut the sirens but kept the lights when they realised there wasn't enough room, then the hatch rolled back a bit to make space, but the Mercedes driver had his attention on the dummy spit from the recording driver, so likely didn't notice. I'd say where the Mercedes originally nudged forward to was safe, but the tantrum had by the recording car driver seemed to encourage them to commit to fully clearing the intersection.

Got respect for the cops (no one likes get pulled over) but the 4wd cop vehicle @ 10:30 overtaking thru lights in the oncoming turning lane was a bit reckless? Or is just me?
The orange McLaren towards the end tho 😍
well spotted !!! 12:17

So nice!
The red Alfa spider at 2:06 was pretty nice too 😍

You don't have to be shy - we can all admit it... we all LOOOOVE these instant karma collections. Absolutely JOYOUS :D
Even more when it's the dash-cammer being pulled over!
Not much beats a few good Schadenfreude moments!
0:55 to be fair, the cop car already had its light on before it approached the Mercedes - so the Mercedes may just tried to get out of the way
You might be right, but you are not required to put yourself at risk by going through a red light to make way for a cop car that doesn't have its siren on, and could easily mount the median strip if it needed to go through the intersection in a hurry.
fair point
@@Banana_Split_Cream_Buns depending on the state you are supposed to roll passed a red light to make way for emergency vehicles with flashing lights or sirens if you can safely. He cleared space for the cop car but just rolled a little far and panic'd when old mate got on the horn. Shit law to be honest damned if you do damned if you don't.
@@Brendandm1 As far as I can tell, this is only allowed in Qld and SA. The driver's handbooks in those states say that you are allowed to disobey other road rules in order to move out of the way of emergency vehicles under lights/siren, but only if it is safe to do so. None of the other states or territories say this. (NT goes further and says you must not block an intersection just to give way to emergency vehicles)
@@Banana_Split_Cream_Buns accordingto ambulance service they never want you to break the rules. Unless the cops gave me a clear signal I wouldn't go through a red light.
super satisfying. I feel some of life's stress lifted a tad after this clip.
7:05 the celebration of the year award 2022 we can award it now
This is truly heartwarming. Thank you.
The humiliation of being pulled over by a pushie cop 😂😂
8:10 My takeaway from this particular clip is that wherever this was filmed, you have to be breaking the laws pretty bloody badly to warrant police attention.
Yeah the DCer also broke the law by running red light 😂
@@ryballs4569 I guess running the light was the lesser of the two evils that time
@@ryballs4569 was amber when he passed the line
@@TheDocSRKA it turned red while he was still in the intersection. Either way it's the same fine. If there was a red light camera it would have flashed
@@ryballs4569 Red light cameras only work if you cross the stop line after the light has turned red. If you are already across the stop line when the light turns red, you will not be caught by the camera. In this instance (8:10), the police could have stopped the DC driver (on the grounds that the cop believed the DC driver should have stopped on the yellow light) but the cop made the right call and went after the worst of the offenders. Let's hope the hoon lost his car to the wreckers.
I love the multi-language submissions this week. Keep them coming! :)
Normally don’t comment until watching the whole video but seeing that cop on the pushy pull over that car is great.
These instant karmas are sooo satisfying to watch
10:23 what the cop car did was way more dangerous than what the Chrysler did, going through the intersection over the hill in an oncoming traffic lane with no sirens or flashing lights is just absolutely dumb, he could have easily killed someone.
Indeed. I was going to comment the same thing.
that is straight illegal. police can not "break the law" (when it comes to speeding and crossing lines on roads, etc) unless they have lights flashing.
@@banana-ui2qd absolutely, my opinion that officer should be suspended and inquiry made into the incident! Otherwise it is double standards all over again, we get fined for every little thing and they feel like they can do absolutely anything.
Heads up, police are exempt from the road rules regardless of whether their lights and sirens are on.
@@dixonkunts232 absolute nonsense mate, how are the other road users supposed to know that the coper is flying hundred miles an hour on the wrong side of the road then?!
8:53 Ooh, self burn! Those are rare
A bit bullshit if you ask me though, like it wasn't a red light. It was still orange.
@@TheWinningSperm888 nah rule is if you can stop safely you HAVE to, similar thing happened on highway patrol
@@TheWinningSperm888 The law says that a yellow light must be treated like a red light - unless it is unsafe to stop. If a light has been green for a while, then careful drivers will be prepared for it to change at any moment - this driver did not and paid the consequence.
@@Azasam16 another rule is don't drive in front of 3 lanes of green traffic while on a bike. oh wait, that's just a rule of life. which this clown clearly doesn't want
@@TheWinningSperm888 Yellow, not orange, and that is still a direction to stop unless unsafe. This driver had ample time to stop. See the _Road Traffic Code 2000, r41._
My favourite clip was definitely around the 7:04mark lol Definitely started laughing at this part😂
I wonder if they'd been aggravating the person behind them. That psycho laugh has a story behind it no doubt
@@pastorofmuppets8834 or maybe they're just joyful because a dangerous driver got pulled over
@@traj7196 could be ... Strange to have such ecstasy over it though!
@@pastorofmuppets8834 Yeh, i can't relate to being that happy over some stranger getting a ticket, and it's weird seeing how many people in the comments are in love with it.
@ 7:10 - She reacted to that just as I would of done. Top chick.
Australian police have such a varied fleet of often nice cars it's great. In the US it's like 80% Explorers.
Nah depends on the precinct and their funding. A lot of chargers as well
There's nothing as good as a Karma Kompilation. And the highlight is always the maniacal laughter of the DC drivers witnessing what's happening around them. Oh joy!
7:29 cop didnt even indicate properly lol
Cop was trying to stop the driver from cutting traffic so he wouldn't need to fine him.... driver did it anyway
Cop did indicate left and then when he/she went after the idiot, indicated right. All good
Australian Road Rules are vague on how long you have to indicate once a vehicle is moving; "signal for long enough to give sufficient warning to other drivers and pedestrians". But I agree a reasonable interpretation of that situation would be that the police vehicle did not give sufficient warning. What we don't know is why the police pulled them over. I think it may be more likely to be due to speed. There was a lot of road works passed so likely the speed limit was reduced and that is what they were pulled over for.
@@AnotherDoug That would be a fail on your drive test if you indicated like that.
@@89lutzy What? Cutting off other drivers so they can't overtake you is pretty far from legal.
We need a pickup truck version cause they're on another level !! Just running around asking for it
Favourite time when Dashcams Australia uploads these compilations.
I love the chuckle the first couple enjoyed.
Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
7:10 I fucking love the Australians, greetings from Austria ;)
Never realised people get so much joy over others getting pulled over !!
The Germans invented a word for it (schadenfreude) - so it is human nature
Well deserved for dangerous driving
Specially when they deserve it, I go yippee they got them.
@@cherk9993 lol As long as it isn't me I don't really care !!
A bit of Karma there at 3:45 with that guy who was brake-checking previously. Great timing, officer!
2:42 That ending would have felt amazing for the dashcammer
I hate brake checking arseholes who are in the wrong, know they're in the wrong but act like you did something wrong!
Thank you all for spending the money for a dash camera. Feels so good to see someone get caught!! Thanks.
10:56 the driver also ran a red but luckily the guy in front ran it first!
he ran 2 reds in a row ... and he wasn't stopping for that third one but it just went green when he got there.
Actually no he didnt. The left lane had a green light while the right lane didn't. Its a weird intersection but there are intersections that do that. He had three green lights to veer left, but if he wanted to veer right, he would have had the two red lights. If you ever visit Melbourne there's quite a few of these down here
@@sofiakate5979 Well spotted,!This intersection is in Hurstville NSW and up here they are not so common. Everytime I am at this intersection i see someone screw it up.
@@sofiakate5979 ah you are right! damn i had to watch that several times to make sense of it... can't imagine trying to drive through there for the first time
@@paulhyungjunpark4546 It is the most confusing thing ever! I remember driving through one just going ‘oh god I’ve run a red, if there’s a cop I’m done’ but I had a chat to some people and they said what I told you so I totally get why it would be confusing!! You definitely don’t hear about these intersections much!
@7:01
ahhhh I love the Aussie vocabulary, absolutely brilliant
7:25 - I'm not sure what the person did wrong, unless there's a rule for that road I'm not aware of. Looks more like the cop had a bruised ego about him trying to pass.
The driver was getting impatient and trying to weave, tailgating and driving recklessly - I see it all the time here. Overtaking on the left is a no-no, hence why there's also anger when cars drive slowly in the right/overtaking lane.
Tailgating and speeding are generally frowned upon on most roads
@@WilliamOwyong But that's what doesn't make sense. Yeah, he was generally being an ass, but he got into the right lane to pass, isn't that legal? It's confusing.
In the US, passing on the right (your left) is taboo for sure, but not inherently illegal.
@@matrixphijr I get that, but the driver was still driving dangerously, and passing on the right after trying to pass on the left and tailgating is still a no-no. If the officer was kind they'd probably just pull them over, get them to calm down a bit, and issue a warning. Traffic jams suck for everyone.
@@WilliamOwyong It is legal, in Australia, to overtake on the left on multi-lane roads (or to pass stationary vehicles waiting to turn right.)
These are the best, defiantly need more of these!
Defiantly.
@@opiumtrail7032 First_shot23 is adamant!

Somehow completely over the top and absolutely appropriate all at the same time :-)

The comments and reactions are hilarious.....worth the watch and listen.
Was that an SRT8 @11:55?
Gee he/she cranked it up.That sound!!!

These Instant Karma videos are some of the best kinds of Schadenfreude. Drive safe
10:17 I'd argue what the police did there was far more dangerous than the pansy little burnout they were chasing matey for.
The driver coming the other way could have changed lanes into their path. They overtook (on a solid line) a car which was indicating to change lanes into their path and they were clearly doing well over the posted speed limit. They should be making the roads safer, not driving dangerously and justifying it because some dick lit their tyres up for a few seconds.
Exactly what I was thinking. Cop car blew through that intersection on the wrong side of the road with no lights on all for a little tyre squeal, crazy.
@@Illusionyary Yeah, I suppose it's what happens when people are trained to believe that the ends justify the means.
Rubber bullets and tear gas to save you from getting poorly anyone?
I agree the cops did the wrong thing for not having lights and or siren, but that is forgiven by most people who want to see these hoons lose their car. Honestly, "CRASH 3" for a number plate? That just advertises his low intelligence to everyone and then he draws attention to that low intelligence by doing a burnout.
@@AnotherDoug Plot twist: CRASH3 is a Victorian Police highway patrol blitz squad (Think QLD's Police FATAL4 custom plate), has borrowed a 300C from NSW Highway Patrol, was just testing out if it had a line lock feature.. how funny would that be.
Additional fun fact: police are exempt from the road rules even if they are driving without lights or sirens (provided "in the circumstances, it is reasonable" that they do not use their lights or siren).
Its the chuckles that make it much funnier
Love the fact that "Instant Karma" is the same in multiple languages :D. Not sure what the silver car did that was illegal (assuming generally being a knob isn't illegal) at 7:26 but the cop definitely cut him off without lights of sirens going at 7:31.
The silver car at 7:26 cut across multiple lanes at once which is illegal ( atleast in VIC anyway). Correct way would to indicate and change lanes once, then wait momentarily and repeat. Cop probably cut him off to give them a chance to not be a knob
Coppers almost caused an accident at 7:31 like you say, what a joke
@@HUMANSALAd666 so what the cop did at 7:50 would be illegal then? I can understand if it was for speeding but the cop was the more dangerous driver in that video
@@HUMANSALAd666 is this always illegal? what if there's no other cars (because they're behind a traffic light) can you then cross a few lanes? i didn't know this.. couldn't work out why the cops went after him.. so it's because he went from the leftest lane to the rightest lane? 🤔
@@chrisco7 not 100% sure but since they pulled them over right after i feel like it would be treated the same as if they were to speed up without lights/siren if the police were in pursuit/pulling someone over
7:03 best reaction ever.
The last one must have been a SovCit.
It goes to show it doesn't matter what language your talking it's funny as when someone gets caught doing stupid stuff.
Good ol' instant Karma videos make me smile so much!
06:36 - the change in music was timed to perfection.
Ah much joy. Thanks

7:25 tbh silver car didn't really do anything wrong.. it's almost entrapment with the late change by the unmarked car and a brake check too. Silver car decided to move away from what appears to be an erratic and potentially road raged driver..
That was totally entrapment. Silver car shouldn't have crossed 2 lanes like that but he was totally baited.
The people finding it halarious deserve to get T boned by a drunk driver. Maybe then they'll re think what a bad driver is
I guess silver peugeot was tailgating
Guaranteed to hear the bogan cackle on every instant karma video.
7:57 is a stitch up 😂
what did the car do wrong
Today I learned that "Instant karma", "fuck' and "what the hell" are part of international language. Great vid!
0:52 The Merc wasn't trying to run the red, and I doubt the cop pulled him up. The cop had his lights and sirens on coming into the intersection as if they were already on there way somewhere and needed to get through, the Merc was simply trying to make space.
DC didn't have any intention in stopping for the approaching Police car either..
The cop did have lights on, but I could not hear any siren. It is a good question though as I'm trying to figure this one out for sure too. But if you are in the right hand turn lane at a red light and there's a cop car with lights on behind you, it would not make sense for you to move into the intersection where there's right-left traffic going. The cop could easily mount the median strip and drive in the oncoming lane if it had to get through the intersection.
Again, I'm trying to figure this one out, so let me know if you think I'm wrong.
@@Banana_Split_Cream_Buns I can hear a siren in the video.
@@Rbraden I can hear a siren when the cop pulls into the intersection, but I could not hear a siren beforehand, when the Merc pulled into the intersection.
I agree - only Qld and SA officially allow you to break the law while giving way to emergency vehicles under lights and/or siren. But I expect most cops would not book you unless you actually caused an accident.
@@Banana_Split_Cream_Buns The driver's handbooks in Qld and SA say that you are allowed to disobey other road rules in order to move out of the way of emergency vehicles under lights/siren, but only if it is safe to do so.

I would argue that it was not safe for the Merc to move into the intersection in the way they did even if this was Qld or SA. But, I also expect, that the cops in this instance did not stop to book the Merc driver.
always look forward to these the most
Look at that octupussy sitting on the dash of that red hot vf commodore at 8:44 looks absolutely sick!
5:34 so reminded me of the line from crocodile Dundee.

7:09 i'm guessing the cammer was pretty happy with that
Happy he got overtaken illegally... otherwise it would have been DC being busted going 10+km over in the rain smh
7:51 The plot twist of it's actually a cop behind you never gets old.😆
The cop cut him off hard with minimal indication...
@10:54 Is the DC'r even aware that they blew straight through TWO red lights right in front of the coppers too?
Its a bit of an odd one but the green arrow is for a slight left hand turn (45 degree arrow). I thought that too first time around
So the car that got pulled over, it was because it ran a red in the right lane (and that lane is meant to got straight rather than left)?
Yeah, I was confused about this one too. Seems like he just cruises through two red lights right beside the police.
@@stuartmacaulay962 Both, I'd say.
@@stuartmacaulay962 I'd say that he's it was because he used the wrong lane to bear left. The bear left arrow was green.

You know you're having a bad day when a cop pull you over on a bicycle.

2:33 he should have pulled infront of the bus he also ran a red and was already stoped ^^
Yes. He missed a good twofer!
@@KevinD_33x150 no, he was already in the intersection
@@kylechen6714 Since when is it OK to do what the bus did? That light would've been red before the bus crossed into the intersection.
That's not a small intersection. It's a fair while between being red for the bus & green for the traffic from DC direction.
Love the Australia livery's look so nice
Aussies have cool cop cars.
Them lights do look good when there not in your mirrors 😂🇦🇺
Am I the only one who thinks that the cop car at 7:25 was driving significantly more illegally and dangerously than the car that it caught? Can someone please enlighten me if they think I'm missing something here?
yeah idk. from the clip it looks like the cop is in the wrong, unless the car they pulled over is wanted for something.
Actually, I think the cop was trying to do the idiot a favour.
I think the cop cut him off to try to slow the poor idiot down so he wouldn't have to ticket him.
Then again, the cop just could have just been an arsehole who didn't look & cut the guy off & pulled him over because fuck you for showing me up.
But I think it's the first one.
12:12 looked quite a bit more dangerous than the car he was pulling over too
Agreed.
@@LHyoutube The cop car moved from the middle lane into the left lane at 7:28 when the silver sedan was already in the left lane and closely behind it. I would not hesitate in calling that illegal and dangerous driving from the cop car. Granted, while I saw the silver sedan indicate when switching from the right lane to the middle lane, I didn't see its indicator when moving from the middle lane to the left lane (though the indicator light on that car is hard to see in this video), and I'm wondering whether the cop busted the silver sedan for in effect tailgating the cop car (after the cop car moved in front of it) or the other grey car in the middle lane at 7:41.
Yes, I'm aware that cops have an allowance to break the law when justified, but the cop car seemed to initiate the situation. @PiggyPigFace might be correct in that the cop wanted to bust them for something else.
Instant Karma. Best way to begin a new week.
The lack of awareness needed to not see a police car in the traffic around them is astounding.
13:12. Oh, that sound of a true blue Aussie Sheila cussing and swearing her head off truly warms the heart. Go you good thing!!!!
After years of watching these thinking that Aussies can just drive wherever they want, on the sidewalks, on the other side of the road, go through red lights, it's interesting to see that there is some traffic enforcement after all!
but put these videos in context to the "normal" ones here, and its about 10.000 to 1 that anybody gets "caught".....:-)

Can someone explain how come there's quite a lot of BMW police cruisers in Australia especially in the past 2 years? And they're even BMW 5 series. Thought they're too expensive to be used as police cruisers?
No more Holden Commodore cop cars
@@V8fanETHANKELLY or Falcons either for that matter. Locals HWP here use both BMWs and Chrysler 300s.
Covid fines payed for those fancy BMW they should be driving Volkswagen or Skoda station wagons they don't deserve our tax $$ put towards top of the range BMW give the pigs poverty spec 🤣
I read that the NSW police requested quotes from Mercedes & BMW (& maybe others) for non luxury versions of their cars built to police specs. Mercedes weren't interested but BMW were fine with doing that which is why they have the BMWs. The Chrysler SRTs I think are a similar deal plus they are somewhat quick for highway patrol use. The Mustang was ruled out because their safety rating is only 2 or 3 & government cars are required to be 5 star safety rating.
@@arokh72 those 300 handle like crap and they got crappy electrics the cops love the BMW the dirty scum
So satisfying. It’s just a shame that Police Karma videos aren’t more frequent and the normal dash cams of idiot drivers rarer.
0:55 was trying to move for the emergency vehicle. It wasn't a bust.
You may be right. Wow.
I'm not entirely sure about that. I see the cop car had its lights on before that vehicle moved into the intersection, but I wonder if it had been chasing it from earlier on? If a cop car is in the right hand lane and there's no oncoming traffic, they'd simply move into the oncoming lane to overtake stopped traffic. Look, you might be right, but it would seem a bizarre and dangerous way to make way for a cop car.
00:55 When you play it back you can see the white sedan had the police car approaching from behind with sirens and flashing lights going already, they were trying to make way for the police by going into the intersection.
Lights were flashing but siren didn't start until 1:07. In Australia (except for Qld and South Australia), you are not supposed to break any road rules when giving way to emergency vehicles under lights or siren. Even in Qld and South Australia, what the Mercedes driver did was wrong as those states say you can break road rules to give way "but only if it is safe". The Mercedes did not do anything safely in this clip.
@@AnotherDoug I'd say cop had sirens on ( barely audible but faintly I think I hear it before the recording car gets to the lights) then cut the sirens but kept the lights when they realised there wasn't enough room, then the hatch rolled back a bit to make space, but the Mercedes driver had his attention on the dummy spit from the recording driver, so likely didn't notice.
I'd say where the Mercedes originally nudged forward to was safe, but the tantrum had by the recording car driver seemed to encourage them to commit to fully clearing the intersection.
7:30 so the cop deliberately pisses off another driver to fine them? Dog move.
