Its a classic moment in Australia when your speeding and the cops drive by then you realise they are going faster then you and you just kinda both look at each other as they pass by... Honestly happen the other day and i didn't know what to do but slow down after the fact and hope they didn't come back. I would of been doing 10 over, they had to be doing 15.
+burns0100 I dunno which state you're in but down here in Vic I've followed cops at 140+ a few times in the past. They're speeding - as long as I'm not going faster than them they can't book me! Bit hard to do it these days, the old ute is happy doing 95 everywhere. Given a fast car I'd do it again ;)
err of course they can book you lol, but if they are doing 140 its for a reason - to get somewhere else. Sometimes you get lucky, other times they will pull over someone doing 10 over, it just depends
@MusicMadMaurice I've never understood that logic, if you leave adequate stopping distance then watching the car in front should be more than adequate..
@MusicMadMaurice If you're an adequate distance away from the person in front of you then there shouldn't be an issue... What are you even going on about? 😂😂😂
I once had some wanker come screaming down my drive in a Monaro doing 80ks. He was on the wrong ride of the divided highway and just missed a head on, up on the road. Moron nearly took out my back fence 'cos he couldn't stop.
Simler event happened a couple of years ago in the city out side where I worked,a man got out of a Uber on passengers side the car was in the middle lane ,the man was but but a bus and killed
barsondor i had one the other day, lucky i had a car in front of me who swerved away. It was early in the morning and i dont think i would have reacted fast enough if the guy in front wasnt there. It was his erratic movement which snapped me out as another car was coming toward me. Crazy thing was he didnt attempt to slow down at all, kept up high speed regardless of all the cars getting out of his way.
The way I drive is that I assume that every other driver is a bloody mong and they have never driven before and this channel has the proof that I am right.
Even if it was just called "Dash Cam Owners", you could still easily tell it was Aussie. Love that nearly every person or second person has a different swear word to use! So good!
Can anyone recommend a dashcam with good quality day/night video capture, rear camera (not essential) and a button to lock/save files from being overwritten? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My budget at present is $200 tops, but I may end up saving a few extra dollars if I will end up with a better unit. Cheers.
i know we all have our own voices at home or at the pub,....but when we're goin off at some idiot, we all sound exactly the fuckin same.. It's like god ran out of pissed-off voices, so he just said 'Oh..thats OK...they can all use that one"..
Bloke on the bike in the snow should have chains fitted. Mostly to his legs, arms, maybe one around his chest. Lock him to his couch and let him out, oh, maybe December.
Yeah that really pisses me off. 1. They're putting other people's lives in severe danger 2. They're relying on others reactions to survive 3. It's all just for the sake of getting ahead of someone They need to be taken off the road.
amazes me how many Australian drivers don't realise culpable driving causing death has the same jail time as manslaughter. Also third party and car insurance only covers medical costs and damages not the people you hurt taking you to court and suing you for negligence ie you can lose your house for being stupid on the road.
I can almost guarantee that the truck on the left speed up while being overtaken (illegal) like 90% of drivers. It happens to me almost daily. People go as low as 60km/h in a 100km/h zone around corners and then the moment there is a spot to overtake, they do 105. The only way to get past them is what this truck did. Not defending the other cars, but that truck probably did nothing wrong. It's far more dangerous to try pull back in behind because cars usually fill the gap you left and sit in your blind spot. Not overtaking can cost you over an hour of time on some routes, the sort of thing you will get fired for. So don't hate on the truck, hate on the people who speed up while being overtaken by someone. THEY are the ones pointlessly endangering lives, it happens all the god damn time and everyone blames the person who "illegally overtook" and not the person who illegally sped up while being overtaken.
Possibly. Personally I see way more stupid overtakes than I do deliberate speed ups, and way more people who aggravate everyone by sitting in the 100k/hr lane on 99km because they think they have the right to be in any lane they want - when the law says you need to move left unless overtaking. Also it's my experience that most truck drivers are way better than car drivers at a) going hella fast when they can, b) getting over when they can't, and c) being able to communicate with each other and know what's coming up. Recently drove from Melbourne to Brisbane and truck drivers were regularly moving to the side and waving me past because they knew I couldn't always see round them far enough to know if the road ahead was clear.
+notneeded orknown haha very close. I'd call that one in the wet about halfway through the vid a fail though. Putting the whole public road thing aside for a second, that was sloppy as hell haha almost over corrected way too much
I like to think that all the clips without audio were muted by DCOA because they were somehow too vulgar even for normal Australian standards. I mean, who makes HD dash cams without audio recording?
I was going to post the same question. WTF is going on there? Maybe a bunch of crack heads departing after a deal or a communal session? It's really odd whatever it was.
I don't understand why people, when they have misjudged an overtaking maneuver, don't brake and pull in behind the car they were trying to overtake and trying again later. Don't people understand that by increasing your speed to get ahead, you're increasing the closing speed with cars coming the other way and increasing the change of having a prang?
Love how the Indian chap at 0:40 has integrated nicely into our culture.
😂😂
lol ffs lol
sounded more like a Dutch or German accent to me.
Ron Dekker
It was so Indian, I could smell the naan bread from here.
thanks mate, it was me. but I'm german :-)
Last one is a classic LOL
lol her laugh

That last one lol. When you dont want to get in trouble, reverse and pretend nothing happened.
What's with the huge gap left by the cam car?
@MusicMadMaurice yeah , not just your car but be mindful of the other idiots
@MusicMadMaurice
I've never understood that logic, if you leave adequate stopping distance then watching the car in front should be more than adequate..
@MusicMadMaurice
Lol, no.
I've avoided plenty of accidents by just staying back.
@MusicMadMaurice
If you're an adequate distance away from the person in front of you then there shouldn't be an issue... What are you even going on about? 😂😂😂
3:30 "Thats all kinds of special" ... love it!
love the last one lol
The laugh as well lol
What werid is the copper isn't scanning the road
Must have been on the way to pick up lunch etc
is it me or did I miss the Australian wrong way on the road day
Hahaha I missed it too and I cop all the idiots
I once had some wanker come screaming down my drive in a Monaro doing 80ks. He was on the wrong ride of the divided highway and just missed a head on, up on the road. Moron nearly took out my back fence 'cos he couldn't stop.
Not really. They don't drive on the right side all the time.
*scnr*
I look forward to Dash Cams Australia compilation every month! Hope we can get 2 videos a month soon
I don't... the less of these i see the better i feel out there riding my Motorbike.
lol
+burns0100 Same here. Our roads are fine its the people who use them that are the worry.
r u single bb
Art Vandelay lol is she single. All u have to do is book her in.
4:42 holy shit, the reaction time of that bus driver
Oath, I doubt I would have stopped my car in time, let alone a bus. 😅
Simler event happened a couple of years ago in the city out side where I worked,a man got out of a Uber on passengers side the car was in the middle lane ,the man was but but a bus and killed
0:40 assimilation
Yeah that made me lol
I bought a dash cam just because of this channel, now I just need something to happen.
this is my fav thing to watch while driving the car!
I see, so that's why....
All kinds of special. :P
I'da called 'em SpazzMongers
The chick's laugh at the end...
I absolutely appreciate the inclusion of the Mario 64 Ice Slide tune in the first clip
is it the month of wrong way drivers
That's what I was thinking! Why are so many people on the wrong side of the road this month?
+Tom Evans probably summer or some shit in America and the tourists are coming over.
barsondor i had one the other day, lucky i had a car in front of me who swerved away. It was early in the morning and i dont think i would have reacted fast enough if the guy in front wasnt there. It was his erratic movement which snapped me out as another car was coming toward me. Crazy thing was he didnt attempt to slow down at all, kept up high speed regardless of all the cars getting out of his way.
2:40 when you see a speed camera.
No tyres left
Love the last woman's laugh. She's definitely a keeper.
that laugh at the end was like a Disney villain for sure
My favourite time of the month! Thank you!
The intro music 😂 I swear it's from Mario kart 64 or Animal Crossing or something 😂😂
Mario 64. You first hear it when racing a penguin down an ice track, a great choice!
That laugh at the end tho..
Sounded like a fat bitch too haha
+2knackers ...
7:01 - Vance Joy - Riptide! ❤💖❤
Love that song
love the complations ! keep them up
3:36 those traffic lights should be synchronised, they're too close together.
close but quite visible
1:36 Roe Hwy and Morrison Rd, Midvale. Kids on bikes are always darting out there. Roe is an 80 zone too.
The way I drive is that I assume that every other driver is a bloody mong and they have never driven before and this channel has the proof that I am right.
+H8_RICE riding a bike ensures you're out to murder yourself too, it's a 2 way street
0:48 BOOM FACEPLANT
Some instant punishment right there lol
omg that made me start sweating lol looked so painful!
Karma at its finest 👌
Caught the train tho.
'Can you drive on the wrong side of the road so I can catch that pikachu'
Great compilation! The kid on the bike and the guy on the motorcycle were both close calls. Scary passing going on in Oz.
Haha, like this music at the start:)
Super Mario 64 - Rainbow Ride is the music at the start
So wierd that I was talking to someone about this game today, then later this pops up in my subscriptions
+Ryuji Himura Thanks, realy good game
i thought cool cool mountain slide where the penguin is....
It's from Super Mario 64 and it is relevant to the clip because it's the music that plays when you go down the ice slide on the cool mountain level.
Watching this 6 years later and it's just the same now...... 🤣
"That's all kinds of special" seems to sum up nearly every video on DCOA!
What is the purpose of these different colored lights that change colors at all the intersections?
the last one though! hahahaha
Haven't been down that way for a while but 6:05, does look like Loganholme, the awesome pedestrian protection aka pool fence, such gold!
Best line ever! "that's all kinds of special" 😀
I remember when utes always used to have tools in the back tray---now they're always in the driver's seat.
The Mario 64 slide music at the start was a nice little touch. Or is it rainbow ride?
Even if it was just called "Dash Cam Owners", you could still easily tell it was Aussie. Love that nearly every person or second person has a different swear word to use! So good!

The motorbike at 3:18 had a lucky escape.

3:45 campbelltown! Saw a clip near mac square yesterday aswell
The last one was the best 😂😂😂
i know we all have our own voices at home or at the pub,....but when we're goin off at some idiot, we all sound exactly the fuckin same.. It's like god ran out of pissed-off voices, so he just said 'Oh..thats OK...they can all use that one"..
So true
The first clip is just up the road from where I live. It's a bastard of a corner even without snow, lots of tourists skid coming in too fast...
Whats with the super mario 64 music at the begining lel?

5:48 Transvision Vamp FTW!
Love the laugh at the end

What was the last one about?
Thanks for the Mario Kart music
0:54 does a green arrow mean something different in AU??? It looked like that driver had a protected turn, but everyone else went....
4:44 that bus driver has some mad reaction time
I laughed at the exact same time the woman did in the last clip.. 😂😂😂 Caught by the balls 😂😂
Bloke on the bike in the snow should have chains fitted. Mostly to his legs, arms, maybe one around his chest. Lock him to his couch and let him out, oh, maybe December.

Max Hp queenland? no very rarely its in the mts off Victoria and New South Wales and parts off Tasmania

3:45 Campbelltown whoohoo we made it onto RUclips hahhaahha
1:40 hooly Dooley that's a sharp turn
How did you get so many New York drivers down there?
Ken Owens tourists
Those illegal over takes especially with the truck man....
Yeah that really pisses me off.
1. They're putting other people's lives in severe danger
2. They're relying on others reactions to survive
3. It's all just for the sake of getting ahead of someone
They need to be taken off the road.
+El Rey EXACTLY👏👏👏

Whats with the audio?
I LOVE THE INTRO THE SONG SUPER MARIO 64 LOL
Damn sick commo driftn the lady said
+Alex nice one m8
I love it when the have burnout fails on here
+TacticalBBQSauce only a fail when u loop it or touch gutters lol . Id call that a close call lol
+notneeded orknown haha very close. I'd call that one in the wet about halfway through the vid a fail though. Putting the whole public road thing aside for a second, that was sloppy as hell haha almost over corrected way too much
I loved the last one 😂😂
I'd have LOVED to have heard the radio chatter at 6:28
That pedestrian fall - ouch!
I like to think that all the clips without audio were muted by DCOA because they were somehow too vulgar even for normal Australian standards. I mean, who makes HD dash cams without audio recording?
The pedestrian that runs in front of the car at the lights and punishes his own stupidity by eating the pavement 🤣
The bus driver at 4:43 deserves a raise...
4:37 "you fucking stupid chow" hahahaha
2:18 Does anyone have their lights on? What the hell is going on there? I watched it a few times and it's confusing the hell out of me.
I was going to post the same question. WTF is going on there? Maybe a bunch of crack heads departing after a deal or a communal session? It's really odd whatever it was.
That last one was so laugh i forgot to funny
Opposite day??
0:46 holy shit that head bounce....they'll feel that one for a while
4:47 I'm surprised they didn't die from shock 😂😱
Anyone know the song at 4.00
I don't understand why people, when they have misjudged an overtaking maneuver, don't brake and pull in behind the car they were trying to overtake and trying again later. Don't people understand that by increasing your speed to get ahead, you're increasing the closing speed with cars coming the other way and increasing the change of having a prang?
That is such a dirty laugh at the end!
i actually think the truck driver at 2:35 did some good going round indsteead of in the back of the ute.. saved a live that day, but he was too close
4:00 this guy's way ahead of time! check out the recording date.
3:40 opps, Red Light camera! i would know, got done there too lol
3:17 - wild ride, but that cab, right in a front of a no u turn sign
Sign says 'taxis excepted' champ, they're allowed to U-turn there.
