NA64 OFX The car who hit the van. Three crimes I know of: 1. Leaving the scene of an accident. 2. Failure to report an accident. 3. Driving without due care and attention.

[@musicjunkiie2393]

almost rear ended the van trying to get away...

[@tylerkyberd1370]

well done chap, one step closer to being a police officer

[@MrBombastic799]

#75 merge in turn, m8, merge in turn. If you had let him in it would have caused zero delay in your journey, maybe a few seconds. Instead, you caused a dangerous situation and further delayed yourself and everyone around you to serve your ego.

[@blokeleey]

Honestly, what a bell end thinking he's in the right lol

[@thomaswhetton6643]

#22 trying to blame everyone else but himself lol

[@chaspebble1]

I hope the police were informed of the 64 plate Audi that failed to stop after rear ending the van.

[@neiltonks4627]

Doubt it. The cammer didn’t stop, and the van driver wouldn’t have got the number.

[@PaulT-nd9nm]

#9 Don't care what anybody says but trying to exit a multi lane island directly from the offside/inside lane is asking for trouble. Why not move into the left lane first then take the exit??

[@paul8161]

8:39..the laugh of the chap spotting the cop pulling mr impatient queue jumper was priceless. 😂

[@davefb]

Thing is.... IF the police had only seen it on a video, would they have contacted the driver? If not, why not ? Still. good to see people actually getting stopped for that sort of stupidity.

[@ZX600E7]

You're right, Speed doesn't kill. It's the sudden stop that does 😅

[@Mike_Franklin]

#84 Cammer was an idiot for tailgating. No matter what lane the idiot in front is in you should've left room to stop.

[@ekatep6362]

Exactly!

[@CTAVCTAFansOldChannel]

The Scottish Gas van wasn't an idiot, look at the traffic ahead, he was keeping a safe distance.

[@oakleythehamster1]

Can't believe #84 thought, "I'll send that clip in. It definitely doesn't show my driving in a bad light at all."

[@XNick291X]

Right? I think Lukasz needs to redo his hazard perception test.

[@ekatep6362]

So Lucas needs to get a grip and realise that tailgating is also careless and dangerous, no matter if you're annoyed that someone is in middle lane, leave correct distance

[@maxstarbuck4594]

All your campers have forgotten that Audi BMW and Mercedes have different speed limits and driving rules to the rest of us!

[@TheKeirsunishi]

They are better cars, it seems like a logical view point to me

[@glynjones5280]

Ambulance may have got an emergency and then had it cancelled because a nearer veh became available

[@CTAVCTAFansOldChannel]

#84 What an embarrassment posting someone tailgating the Scottish Gas van. They were keeping up with traffic at a safe distance. The check was justified when the cammer went beyond tailgating to a dangerously close distance. The irony of suggesting the Scottish Gas van thinks they own the road wasn't lost though! Absolute weapon!

[@doctorsocrates4413]

#71...no need to chase the offender really..registration plate would be enough to convict.

[@DarkDeviant]

Yep, probably broke the speed limit to catch up. Also he cut someone up to get behind the Corsa as well. Lovely driving.

[@webrumrunner]

#91 Obv the driver had a problem with his motor, the hazards may have given you a clue.

[@CragScrambler]

#52 Dont be afraid to call out the police, ive had that happen to me, swapped lanes with no indication and I papped at them, they moved back i to lane, waited for me to pass and then pulled me. LoL I told them I papped as they swapped lanes and didnt indicate, nor did they see me oin their blindspot and that I used my horn within requirements to let them know I was there, I then asked why I was pulled over and that I have camera footage, they made an excuse they thought I was in distress and just let me go, I reported them to local authorities. 😂

[@bobgoddard5489]

#32 Those lights are a joke.

[@TheAegisClaw]

Yep, almost seems designed to confuse.

[@chrisleigh8989]

I don't usually laugh at people's misfortune but the "gent" that skipped the queue with the Police behind was worth a chuckle.

[@drivinginluton5745]

24:17 #56 Kudos to the dashcamer. Cyclist made the mistake but instead of blowing their horn and aggressively overtaking or abusing the cyclist the dashcamer patiently let the cyclist go and went on their way stress free. :)

[@XNick291X]

First clip, kind of feel bad for the BMW driver. Second clip, Stobart is gonna Sobart.

[@warrenprice7789]

Some of these dash cam vehicles need to learn the highway code, one of them in the right hand lane then decided to turn left and wonders why he got hit

[@Jusnugs]

#22 Is a 🔔 end. His lane was blocked no excuse for that lol

[@johnmoore2342]

#23 They cyclist was correctly positioned in the road. The cammer almost stopped, which most motorists or cyclists would assume was an invitation to continue across to the junction. However, on a bicycle I probably wouldn't have crossed - if you misinterpret the signals (as here) lycra always comes off second best to metal.

[@andrewdigby5114]

on the manchester road out of broomhill, just before crosspool. cyclist is turning right down shore lane past lydgate middle school.

[@TheMrBitsy]

#35 - I sympathise with the trucker because too many drivers are doing this. However, I wonder if this is equalled by the number of truckers who dangerously tailgate cars?

[@drivinginluton5745]

22:22 #52 Indicators are not actually compulsory but highly recommended (rule 133 of the Highway Code). In this instance the police car performed the lane change in a completely safe manner and it affected you in absolutely no way what so ever or at worst cost you a few seconds at most.

[@silasfatchett7380]

#29 He knew not to use his phone on his test.

[@madsoundcaddiehat]

53:42 I had a similar incident where another driver crashed in to me and then lied about the events to his insurance. Fortunately, I had it all on camera. I'm amazed that we do not treat this as attempted insurance fraud.

[@commissarkai1791]

Usually I don’t see roads that I routinely drive, in videos. So it’s weird to finally see some that I drive on regularly

[@mrdunns3338]

#24.......all the tipper driver had to do was ease off the gas a bit and let him in.

[@TheMrBitsy]

#53 - yes, a stupid move, but well done on helping fixing the problem quickly. Great attitude!

[@bravo2966]

#59 (25:59) complaining of being tailgated while driving just half a second behind the car in front yourself lol. Only a fool breaks the two second rule.

[@GG-ml3vr]

Tailgaiting is the new norm im afraid,its getting worse every week.

[@unclegreybeard3969]

#96 Thank you for perfectly demonstrating your distracted driving technique.

[@sarahwhittle4868]

I live in Peterborough but my son lives in Whittlesey. There are 2 ways to get to Whittlesey. But when the roads are flooded, all the HGV drivers have to use the A605. It is a very dangerous road to drive on. I nearly crap myself driving these roads 6 times a week. The 40 mph speed limit is ignored so I spend a lot of my time driving on the far edge of the road to avoid speeding HGVs. It is brown trousers time!

[@mrsjustsaying9875]

get a dashcam & report them to the coppers

[@AikenDrum1715CE]

37:30 let the poor bastard in, it's a merge.

[@babylon5mh]

#29, the hysterical fool again

[@user-ip7dg1bi6i]

I nearly got hit by the jeep number 59 he drove on pavement not long entering Sunniside where I live 😊

[@pilsxxx]

#22 what the fuck were you thinking - 100% in the wrong - how dare you try to defend that?

[@banterman]

Yup. Completely to blame. Some people are clinically incapable of realising fault.

[@Rich6Brew]

The driver of NA64 OFX: you are a coward.

[@deanjames2279]

Julie B from Sheffield makes me laugh with her choice words 😂

[@Forester376]

#83 No excuse for the brake check, BUT this is a 60mph limit road until you reach the Millstone pub nearly a kilometer ahead and had been 60mph for over 5km previously. If the cammer thought that it was only 30mph and was driving accordingly, I can understand the pick-up driver's frustration.

[@user-ip7dg1bi6i]

That merc at 71 didn't sound a merc

[@Jusnugs]

Never move from the scene of an accident lol. Asking for the guilty driver to flee.

[@applejuice5272]

31:40 Checked the reg and it's an SLK 200 (1,991 cc 4-pot) - there'll probably be a speaker in the exhaust OR it's had an engine swap without notifying the DVLA (and by extension, insurance company).

[@TheMrBitsy]

#13 - large lorry indicating to join my lane so I'll accelerate to stop the merge. The cammer doesn't seem to understand who the tit is.

[@vahvahdisco]

#81 - the police weren’t using their sirens because it probably was a covert operation 😂

[@TheMrBitsy]

#17 - Somebody isn't driving right as they are going to pass me on the left. I know, I'll respond by closing down the gap and put myself right at the point of collision.

[@Iamandyf]

#95 it wasn't a merge lane, it was two lanes and yours was blocked with traffic. You forced your way into the other cars lane. They were right you did nearly hit their car, and you tried to brake check them and shat it and flooded it when they were actually going to hit you.

[@Craig_79]

Since dashcams I find an increasing number of accidents where it seems that the person technically not at fault has allowed an accident to happen just because it’s not their fault. The accident in many cases could have easily been avoided. Remember, when you buy car insurance one question is “have you been involved in any accidents in the past 3 or 5 years”- no mention of fault. My insurance renewal has come in at £550 my last accident was in 2008 and I have over 25 years NCB on an 8 year old Astra. Best thing to note is you have a responsibility to minimise the liability to your insurance company. Keep this in mind when you drive and complain about increasing insurance costs. We all pay for your accidents.

[@applejuice5272]

31:10 #69 (nice) > The soot and grime on the left-hand-side was a big sign that it been modded and would be spewing sooty black smoke Plus, smoked (pun intended) rear lights, lowered suspension, possibly stretched tyres, and sticker / IG handle on the rear windscreen

[@garybrain9786]

#22 totally in the wrong, you shouldn't be allowed on the road.

[@sarahwhittle4868]

I don’t get angry when I see drivers being silly. I just upload it to KZbin and to my local police station! I’m not the police xx

[@epsleon]

#91 Doesn't start the clip with a right wing mirror. I'm going to assume they're trying to get a replacement car on someone else's insurance.

Tailgating vs doing the speed limit in the middle lane. Please do hand over the video to the police 84. It should earn you the local version of a dangerous driving charge!

[@TheMrBitsy]

#57 - The overtake was dumb, but so was your following distance.

[@MrSonicAdvance]

22:19 Police get basic BMW equipment which I assume doesn't include the optional extras like indicators, which most BMW drivers don't specify when buying their vehicle as they never use them anyway.

[@user-vx4jj7qf2m]

Also I'm dam glad I don't drive any more. Its bloody scary what kind of idiots on outer roads. Very scary 😨 😳

[@oddities-whatnot]

First clip in the snow, get a Subaru Outback ! Number #18 fake laugh or what.

[@HypocrisyLaidBare]

#6 snow and hills. That was caused by two opposites affected by physics. Speed was too great BEFORE the descent begun, then on the descent the realisation came it was too fast and braking was applied above what the road/tyre surface friction could sustain grip at. This with gravity being now on a hill caused motion to increase the speed. Trying to steer onto the side road to avoid the hill the car was then put into a tail after nose spin resulting in a side impact with a brick wall. In short everything short of accelerating and handbraking was input by the driver to prevent this and all too much or too little too late. Word of advice... never drive up or down hills in winter unless it's life or death.

[@madanto2394]

Lose control in snow it's hands off the wheel feet off the pedals car will regain control itself

[@vahvahdisco]

Clip 71 - At 32:01, we can clearly see the aggressor’s reg plate. After the driver floors it, we then see the victim (OP), do the exact same thing to catch up with and force him to a stop, but yet again the driver leaves the scene. Why did OP feel the need to chase after and confront this idiot when he didn’t need to ? The aggressor could have been armed or an unstable individual. Which is more important, your car or your life ?

[@bravo2966]

4:10 As we've said here many times, hanging back a half second saves so many problems on roundabouts. Hang back at this point and the end result would be a bit of a tut from the daft car in front cutting in front of you. As it is, cammer has to speed up and rushes to overtake and again we have the collision. Yes, car in front's fault, but again, would you rather be right and hitting them, or just hang back and get home in one piece?

[@user-fl5eu3mk3n]

How is it there is not 50000 deaths per year on our roads is pure luck

[@terryosborn]

How many times do we need to see clip 43?

[@helenlloyd6564]

All these incidents happen every hour every mile. As a H.G.V. driver I and we truckers have to endure this day in day out. Regarding the Astra and the Golf incident it is normal behavior on our roads. Many times I had thought not braking, hitting the car in front. Teach them a lesson, my excuse " I was looking in my nearside mirror got cut up couldn't stop my 44 tonne in time". But no too much form filling e.t.c. I always say a little prayer, "Father forgive them they don't know what they are doing". We are supposed to be living in an intelligent educated society, there are a lot of stupid dangerous idiots on the road. I retired a month ago, do I miss it a BIG NO No.

I hope #27 was reported to the Police, or though the way it was being driven it was probably a stolen vehicle.

[@buckrogers2828]

Lucask needs reeducating!

[@vahvahdisco]

15:10 - the ambulance probably got an emergency call right at that moment and judging that there wasn’t a lot of traffic coming up behind them, they moved over pretty quickly to the off lane. Time is of the essence in an emergency ! Put yourself in the situation - would you be happy to know that an ambulance took ‘the long way round’ to get to your loved one’s seriously ill or injured episode because they weren’t allowed to cross a lightly trafficked junction because of wondering what people, like yourself, might think and due to the detour, that loved one lost their life ? No, I didn’t think so !

[@kevinrayner5812]

I hope the Eddie Stobart driver was sacked.

[@kevinrayner5812]

[@octaviussludberry9016]

Interesting to note the Audi NA64 OFX had a worn front brake disc at its last MOT, perhaps that was the issue which caused not not to stop in time.....

[@mateuszlobien6665]

10.13 the camera driver is making excuses but he is clearly at fault, his lane is bloked and he just wanted to pass

[@alastairward2774]

HGVs will F you up edition?

[@drivinginluton5745]

21:59 #51 You see a idiot lose it on the roundabout and still think it wise to keep you foot in it, nearly causing a crash? If you had of hit him then most likely you would be considered at least 50% at fault and more likely 100% at fault as you would have rear ended the BMW.

[@urbanfox53]

Most families only have one licence that they all use. Driving test is ancient history that most don't bother with, hence atrocious driving.

[@guillembauza1658]

[@SEBZED86]

#49 the car was already on the roundabout the biker should’ve held back

[@F1shF4c3]

No lane markings on the roundabout means assuming someone's destination from their position is a terrible idea. It was a wide roundabout, so the car could've done way better at making their intentions clear as well, though.

[@blxtothis]

#3 - Worst Stobart driver I’ve ever seen! #30, #47 & #80 - Whew, those were the longest wait for our mate Lucasz ever, he’s still a magnet for idiots poor chap! #32 - No wonder he was struggling, the planners ought to be jailed for,that configuration, never seen such a contradictory mess! #57 - As bad as it gets, no visibility, single lane and crossing double solid white lines. #71 - Cammer drives recklessly and pulls a stop on the idiot tail-ended, that’s a case of Two Wrongs not making one Right. #75 - The right hand side of Merge Lanes are for, guess what, Merging, if everybody used both lanes sensibly the queues would be reduced! #84 - Cammer, you’re way too close to the lane hogger, if you’d opened your eyes you’d have seen he was not the only one! One might say that you too were hogging the lane! A lot of people who seem to driving without having had a lesson, let alone taken a driving test.

[@gumbo7215]

4:10 I'll never understand why so many drivers take their eyes off the danger vehicle in situations like that. The chances of a driver continuing on when they shouldn't are high. I'd have been watching that silver car on the inside like a hawk and expecting him to do that. Maybe it's because I've been driving for 40 years and I rode motorcycles too so I know the sheer volume of shit drivers there are on our roads is extremely high. Never ever assume other drivers will do the right thing.

[@picklerick4944]

33:38 or just hand the footage to your insurance company and let them deal with it instead of driving dangerously to catch up and harrass a female motorist

[@AzguardMike]

#23 - except it kinda is. He was turning BEFORE the cammer even came over the hill. Had obviously signalled to ca behind him, come across and was preforming said manoeuvre, but militant cammer and anti-cyclists will always hop on the "you cant defend this cyclist" band wagon. Hell, as the cammer turns at 10:15 you can see the cyclists hand move from a signal to the handle bar. He even hesitates because now he is thinking "can i make it before this speeding up car?" So he waits. The only "stupid arsehole" is Julie B.

[@bobp3194]

my experience is most of the bad drivers on the roads are our imports from Asia who do not hold a driving licence or insurance lax policing

[@chrisleigh8989]

Rubies are red, Emeralds are green, not making a rhyme just stating the facts.

[@user-vx4jj7qf2m]

I'm only 20 minutes in watching this. The Stobart driver should be sacked. Also, the DPD van driver should be sacked. Most of all, the ambulance driver should be banned from driving till he or she retook the driving test again. Like what we have too. He or she could be an excellent paramedic, but a shit bad driver.

[@sazupollo5752]

#22 don’t start trying to blame the other driver. It was your fault 100%. The obstruction was on your side of the road and he had right of way. It’s all very well being all gracious at the start and admitting it but turning round at the end and saying “he had literally just come out of there” then “I wonder if he was looking at whatever was in his right hand” completely undoes that “graciousness”. Don’t be a twat. It was your fault 100%.

[@mrsjustsaying9875]

as well as people completely ignoring the road rules, the roads themselves can be dangerously narrow, blind corners, etc. why are the road management allowed to get away with such bad construction & lack of maintenance? i see so many worn out road markings & signage missing; what are they doing with the tax payers money? choccy biscuits for morning tea & a trip to inspect the roads in the Bahamas maybe?

9 looked like cammers fault

[@MattF340]

May i suggest a trip to Specsavers.

[@drivinginluton5745]

The road markings clearly state lane 1 straight and lane 2 straight + right. Little blue car (maybe honda???) in lane 1 going right. Camer in lane 2 going straight on. Defo not the camers fault at all although camer maybe could have been a little more patient and not try to pass until they left the roundabout.
