The cruellest thing I've seen in a long time is when I went into the shops, before mind you, before the school holidays had started and they had all the "back to school" things out on display. The poor kids were going to go in there on the first day of the summer holidays and instantly get a reminder that before they know it they'll be back at school.

I think the Range Rover at 7:20mins is fully entitled to be able to turn right there as he is in a 'right turn lane' & the queue of traffic turning right on your side is going nowhere so they are politely letting the Range Rover thru.

[@xo2quilt]

If you can't see that it is clear to exit the road you are on without blocking another lane of traffic, you are doing it wrong. Only way that move is minimally acceptable is if the van waved them into their lane. Even then, it's wrong to block a lane of traffic.

[@dshe8637]

The Range Rover wasn't blocking them because they weren't moving. Makes sense to let it through.

Hi again loving your clips having to watch your past clips of over a year ago, some of them are quite funny, Really glad to be with you on your journeys, Keep it up young man.

[@chrisf9377]

You need to drive through somewhere like Slough where you see a lot of people driving badly. You come to the conclusion that either large numbers of people are able to get a licence without taking a test or that these people all passed the test and they all decided to revert to driving like they never took a lesson. I get that people can choose to ignore certain rules but people drive as though they haven't picked up knowledge that you'd pick up when learning (E.g. What signs & road markings mean / Being observant and looking left & right / Speed limits / How to park).

[@Teapot-Dave]

My mother passed her test in 1976 and always drove like you described here. She is 90 now, and in a care-home so she doesn't drive anymore - thankfully - but she always believed that she was a good driver, and everything that went wrong was someone else's fault.

This happened to me and the lady who pulled out said I was speeding (which was not true). She seemed to think this made it ok for her to pull out in front of me. In fact you'd think NOT pulling out in front of someone you thought was speeding would be the wiser decision, but accepting accountability did not appear to be her strongest personality trait.

[@paulqueripel3493]

The 1st driver not only didn't give way, he was across the central white line in the side road.

[@davidellis8141]

I’m surprised you didn’t get out and educate him clearly in the wrong. As far as lights and pedestrians concerned, the lights would be for traffic and as no dropped kerb or buttons so no right of way for pedestrians, not a crossing point.

[@jaycee330]

It doesn't matter how bloody fast you were or weren't going, he still has to give way at the double broken lines.

[@beeble2003]

And it's clear that he wasn't going fast at all, as he was able to stop instantly when the idiot pulled out.

The car driving on a space saver is also illegally using hazard lights on a moving vehicle.

[@robertsmith-dz9xw]

2 white lines means you have to STOP and GIVEWAY, 1 white line mean be prepared to stop meaning if it's clear to keep driving you keep driving, the car that came out on to a main road is in the wrong and a total w anker

I can practically guarantee every time in in c. London, someone in a white Prius will either: * Barge out of a junction without looking, * Stop and drop off people wherever they deem convenient, even it it involves holding up a busy road. * Bung on their hazards and slam on brakes with little warning, so they can do a three-point-turn. * If there are a choice of several lanes, stay in the rightmost one and do less than the speed limit, then when they need to turn left, shove their way across other traffic at the last minute.

Those "Smart" cars are scary to drive, especially if you are used to driving a "Normal" car. it has a semi automatic gear box, can drive up to 70 MPH, (and if you have long legs) your legs are toughing the steering wheel, and the head position (if you are some one that is 180 - 190 CM tall) is very close to the front window; to top it off it's very hard to see the speedometer. After a (no oil in the Gearbox/bone dry) gearbox problem in my then Renault Megan, my dad thought it would be a good fit, after a test drive I said H3ll No; settled for a StreetKA instead and never looked at a different car since (The only problem with the StreetKA is that the wheels are so wide, the turning arc is bad)

Either bad instructing or a disappointed examiner! 13:26 I think the bus signs back there said "at any time" at the bottom but I think it depends how many passenger seats this "van" has. Should have over 8 to drive in it (correct me if I'm wrong on any of this). 14:07 This car passed an MOT a few days before your upload (19th) with no notes about this wheel or tyre on it. It was noted the OSR (opposite corner) was close to the legal limit with some other issues and the same in 2022 many miles before but a clean 2023 test before this person bought it... Shouldn't be on the road, didn't indicate to turn into the no entry sign posted road (saw no hand signal either, maybe you did?)... lot of things not adding up here 😅 19:12 No indication either!

It’s not illegal to park opposite a junction, the Highway Code states “Do Not” only Must and Must not are the legally binding words. The others are guidelines

[@johncranna9427]

Well I've already pointed out to LDC that that section had a whole host of errors on his part that all started, as you rightly said, by choosing to stop opposite a junction. Not only that but it's opposite a junction where he has just seen an enormous refuse lorry reverse down that will soon want to emerge. AND he reverses from the minor road into the major road!!! Yet he still goes round here and with me thinking that he did nothing wrong. You just can't make it up!

[@thelondondashcam]

And I've said it before stop hating the channel and play attention to what I'm saying and doing, I didn't drive in reverse out I couldn't I couldn't even use the other road if I wanted to because of the dustman, I did a 3 point turn in a side road no law or rules being broken here just the haters coming out to play again.

On that first clip, isn't it your right of way which means the other driver had to stop? Yes you don't need to stop but only if the right of way is not needed by someone else hence why slow down and prepare to stop. Classic one happened to me on the way from Alrincham to Leominster on Sunday. I can see a driver looking like he wanted to overtake yet there was something in front. He did but cut across so closely in front of me because of oncoming cars, I braked and beeped (apparently according to the wife I was wrong to brake but she didn't see how close it was, I did).
