There's text which implies it should be sharp enough to read, I guess the dc wasn't sure how to export or send the footage.

Yes. We try to get permission from the people in the videos, so we can include sound. However many videos come to us with no sound. The Tasmanian Listening Act makes it illegal for us to broadcast conversations without consent. Many people turn their microphones off due to this.

you have to follow the lane arrows for the lane you are.

@@DashcamsTasmania Yeah thought so, just making sure because i see a lot of people do it wrong

@@JJE8423 every. damn. hour. 🤣

@@JJE8423 it is ridiculous. That roundabout has one of the highest accident rates of any intersection, of any type, in Australia. I am unsure of recent stats but between 2004 and 2014 there were just under 1700 crashes on this roundabout.

@@Petlaw99 the silver 4x4/suv wasn't the one in the wrong. The white car should have stayed behind it as there wasn't any room to merge in front. White car caused the mess and got their due.

@@patronza Agree to disagree. By the time they reached the merge it looked like the white car was ahead of the SUV and thus had right of way in the merge. He was being a bit aggressive to scoot up the outside like that, but the SUV wasn't backing off either. No glory to either driver.

when the zip lane lines ended the white car was fully in front of the SUV, you can see that by looking at the shadows on the roadway from both vehicles. The SUV is supposed to pull in behind the white car based on ZIP merge rules.

haha. we have a crash on the Brooker video to post this evening.

Description says illegal lane change past a cop car 🚔

saves pausing and going back to check. Especially when they are red way before the vehicle gets to the red light

Haha

Agree. People. Lots of them, have no idea how to use a roundabout.

Well did the person driving the cam car have the blinker on?

the truck was behind the car at the start of the video. Truck was overtaking it and would have known it was there.

Police rarely watch our clips. Though they have contacted us a few times. (1) to see if anyone has submitted a video of a specific incident. (2) to ask us to remove/not post a clip due to a pending court case that it is being used as evidence in. In Tasmania, anyone with a dashcam can submit video to Tasmania Police, online: www.police.tas.gov.au/services-online/dangerous-driving-report/

we are just here to educate people. Hopefully if people watch this channel and check their own actions when driving, we have succeeded.

Yes it is really Tasmania. But a lot of the video we get has no sound, due to the Tasmanian Listening Act, it is illegal to broadcast/record any private conversation, without a court order. So people here tend to either turn off the microphone in their dashcam settings or mute it before they send it to us. When there is sound we have to specifically request permission to post it with the sound, from everyone in the vehicle at the time, to ensure we do not breach the State Law.

@@DashcamsTasmania Thanks for the response, although I am a bit saddened by that info. For better or worse, I/we will now assume that Tasmanians swear as much as the rest of Australia. 🤣 Regardless, I still plan to visit Tasmania...you're on my bucket list. 👍🙂

correct, but the two oncoming vehicles also have to give way to the DC car an the one in front of it. Which they did not do.

absolutely nothing. Sometimes we post stuff that we get sent to show how people do not understand the road rules. Old mate in the DC car felt the 4WD did not give way to him, because he was on their right. Funnily when we tell them this is not the rule, they generally tell us 'well it was when I got my licence in 1974'. hahaha

so get a dashcam and start submitting video. Easy to be a whinger, harder to be part of the solution.

Found the Mercedes driver. What possible reason could you have had for that? Go on, dribble some more BS. Throw a bit more racism in while you're at it.

And, so you know, 45 in a 100 zone is actually completely legal in some areas. Near Bothwell, Huonville, Port Arthur highways have dusk to dawn signs ranging from 35-50km/h.

​@@suodrazah6015 day time on the Frankford. He looked like an islander going by his stocky build. He was a moving hazard for other road users. 45kph was his maximum speed on the straights.

@@dtengineering1 and what? Maybe the "driver has a good reason". You know what a real hazard is? Speeding.

They literally just overtook someone, and the ~100m (3-4 seconds, wide angle dash cams skew the image) gap to the next car is closing fast. They are also already speeding (just) so there should be no way for them to even get in someone's way. There's also a sign in less than a KM "End Keep Left". You can't throw the ute into the same bucket as the arse in the Mercedes. Completely different driving.
