[@jigwaille]

9:54 #25: This is the same here in France, when there are two lanes we know will merge, people hesitate to take the second lane, expecially to avoid offending morons. As a driving instructor here, I'm gonna say the same things I say to my students: use the two bloody lanes. The second lane isn't here for a decorative purpose, it's made to avoid blocking the previous crossing/roundabout. Yes, it will trigger morons' ego, since they can't handle losing their rank in trafic, but you don't have to predict it will merge. Use it, and if a driver blocks you, ask him to show you where it's written you can't use it.

[@weluckusa]

Please be careful out there, folks. Accidents happen in an instant.

[@RogerThat-hm7su]

I can shed some light on #142. I drive left hand drive artics in the UK as part of my work. When we approach roundabouts like that, and the lanes start to pitch around to the left, out of our right window, all we can see is the middle of the roundabout. We have to rely on a very small wide angled mirror to see what's coming over the roundabout. What we tend to do is try not to stop if possible because you have good visibility on the approach, but not when stopped and angled to pull out (if that makes sense) what it looks like this driver did was look on the approach, and then see a glimpse of you at the last second through the window. He then decided to abort the insertion and give way to you, but it was all a bit late and clunky. Better that then the alternative :)

[@jaffabeast]

I think it's the cars fault here. The lorry did good, in case the car was going to be an idiot, by stopping. You can hear when the car put the right indicator on and it was very late, after it looked like they would go straight on. This is so common. Don't bother indicating until you suddenly think "I want traffic to give way to me" then act indignant when they don't get the message in time. Indicate early and clearly people, it helps traffic move so much better.

[@ReachedBeekeepingAge]

Im sure number 10s well in the wrong, middle lane goes straight on as does his, and he drifts from the right lane, into the middle and calls it someone elses problem....

[@dpayO2]

That's exactly what I thought.

[@WilkyTheFlyingScotsman]

27:15 Im so confused what that was about (idk that road) was he trying a shortcut? Is he technically running away since he made contact with the van?

If #65 thinks they're "lucky" to not have been going at 60 on a bendy road, then we're all lucky to not be on the same roads as them...

[@neilbeetham5035]

#144- no need to indicate when moving back into lane one a dual carriageway. Its an expected manoeuvre.

[@FallenAngel53]

I was always taught to walk facing oncoming traffic fsr 29:56

[@lesliefraser-u5j]

Car drivers have this conception that HGV's and large vehicle's have the same stopping distance as that of a car

[@FallenAngel53]

10:05 No, it's not. If theres a sign saying this lane is closed in 800 yards and they choose to move then, then that too is their lookout. Don't take it out on people who rightly wait til 20 yrds or less almost, then merge one at a time. It's not gold. it's a road. Let them merge.

[@Nathan.Kozlov-Evans]

#144, the last clip. The police didn't break the law. Their manoeuvres had no effect on any another driver, so not indicating was not, in this case, dangerous. People indicate unnecessarily, at the wrong time and automatically (i.e., without really considering if it's needed) which is wrong. Some examples are: indicating at a junction when there are no other road users around, not indicating before moving into a right-turn filter lane at a junction and then starting to indicate once in the filter lane (when your presence in the filter lane is, itself, the indication).

[@WilkyTheFlyingScotsman]

from my pov sometimes even if you cant see any other cars, its still best to indicate on some junctions as visibility might not be the best or there could be vehicles travelling fast and such, if its a nice open junction then yeah no indicator is really needed but more closed off ones and especially in poor weather as well i will always do it just to be on the safe side

#98 my dad has seen many crashes here on his way to work every day some people need to look at the road markings

[@Nathan.Kozlov-Evans]

#79 I feel for the overtaking car somewhat. The rest of the vehicles are driving nose-to-tail and leaving no space for someone who wants to pass, meaning that, if they want to pass, they have to take risks. Of course, they shouldn't take risks, but the other drivers are preventing the overtaker from making reasonable progress.

[@Euphoricsound]

[@RomanLT]

Cyclists and too slow drivers are the main reason for aggressive overtaking. And then cyclists and slow driving people complaining that everybody overtaking them, using horn etc.

[@FallenAngel53]

8:47 Rider is so out of order for doing this. They can't bloody have it all ways. It's a right turn lane only. If your bike gets wrecked and you get squashed, it's your own bloody lookout.

[@Nathan.Kozlov-Evans]

#128 The LandRover driver was an idiot, however that was not a valid pedestrian crossing. It was missing one vital ingredient to make it legal: the "give way" line "- - - - - - - -" before the crossing. This is the bit that means you must give way to a pedestrian already crossing, and are often missing on crossings on private property.

[@garyboyle695]

Tell that to your gran when she's mown down by a nob head.

[@WilkyTheFlyingScotsman]

its a zebra crossing and as per the highway code, "motorists 'must give way when someone has moved onto a crossing" so the Land Rover is in the wrong here

[@Nathan.Kozlov-Evans]

@@WilkyTheFlyingScotsman No, it isn't a Zebra Crossing (ZC), at least, not a valid one with all the legislated components required to be one. The “give way” markings are an essential and required component of making a ZC valid, and they are missing, You may well note that these “give way” dotted lines '- - - - - - -' are the same that are on the entry to a road junction, and mean just what you wrote, about giving way. The rules of ZCs are laid out in legislation (www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1997/2400/schedule/1) and you will see that they are required: PART II - ROAD MARKINGS 6(b): the Zebra controlled areas shall be marked with GIVE-WAY lines, a line of studs and zig-zag lines, of the size and type, and generally in the manner, shown in the diagram at the end of this Part of this Schedule. And in that video, that “ZC” did not have give way lines and was not, therefore, a valid ZC under legislation. A decent solicitor would fight any action here, certainly against any “strict liability” offence, which hitting a pedestrian on a valid ZC would be. But, as I already stated, the Land Rover driver would still have a difficult time defending all his actions as (a) he probably would not have known any of this, and (b) he made no attempt at stopping once he saw (if he saw/was observing) the pedestrian.

[@FallenAngel53]

#16 "luckily my beepers warned me I was approaching too fast". You needed beepers to tell you that? Are your eyes painted on? Please hand in your truck license at the very least before you kill someone.

[@charlietook4842]

That red light was for the cam car. it extends further so it can be seen. if you look there is not line in front of them lights. so learn the road before commenting mate.

[@kevinmoffatt]

Guy going through dry stone wall in 7 tonner probably another case of one hand on steering wheel; when the steering is grabbed from you it's difficult to pull it back one handed. Hate to see clowns in 17 tonne tippers driving with their arms hanging out the window; they think they look cool but would have zero chance of controlling the truck if a tyre blew.

[@daveA2024]

Clip #4 drier calls the white car for reversing out of his space without paying attention, I suppose this idiot has full 360 vision when he is reversing and can see all the cars coming from all directions, one thing he NEVER learned is to give reversing drivers plenty of room due to the poor visibility you have when reversing.

[@MrJla2012]

22:45 in, the bloody driver has a dog on their lap. X8MLB should be banned from driving.

[@kingofclouds]

#12 - what was wrong here?

[@IAmHollowRider]

The highway code states you MUST provide 1.5m of room to pass a cyclist on a road. This is not only to prevent accidents but to stop the trauma that comes from a vehicle (especially an HGV), Flying toward and then past you really fast, without the proper spacing.

[@babylon5mh]

#2, you need a decent dash cam

[@daniellageorgiou-norman2244]

27:08 one of the dumbest drivers i’ve ever seen, why would you drive between two cars when you’re clearly not allowed to do that and also there’s not space to do that?

[@OldBaron5664]

Sadly the fine and points are not enough it's idiots in Chelsea tractors that give us working 4x4s a bad reputation I am seriously thinking about setting up a site specifically show these idiots. When I learnt to drive was always told on roads with no footpaths pedestrians should not walk two abreast and face oncoming traffic so they can see what's coming and are safe. The amount of near misses I have had on roundabouts recently is getting alarming, recently had a council vehicle slow down then decided no just go reported to his bosses awaiting outcome

[@jasondewhurst7054]

#1 no need to honk there was enough room to give cyclist space and for you to get through, learn to drive and learn the width of your vehicle.

[@FallenAngel53]

12:01 Against the law that. No good deed etc

[@whywhywhydelilah9541]

#9 The truck hasn’t done too much wrong here. They can’t accelerate quickly to get out of junctions, so they’d be waiting a long time for a gap big enough that doesn’t slow the car behind them down. They left enough space for you to anticipate and slow down.

[@kingofclouds]

Wrong! HGV is a joke! He has to wait as he is a larger vehicle, he has to judge what the speed of the road is and the distance of the vehicle. He was totally wrong!

[@whywhywhydelilah9541]

@@kingofclouds That’s easier said than done when in a truck though. When you’re in a car it’s easy to judge how much space you need to pull out because you don’t need anywhere near as much. If a car is dead far away in the distance it’s harder to judge how quickly it’s moving and how long it will take to reach you. Trucks would never get out of junctions ever. It was still safe for the truck to pull out because the car and driver had plenty of time to see, react, and slow down safely.

#5 1:36. Nothing wrong with merging at 40 mph, 70 is the limit not a target. Camera is wrong to change two lanes in one move.

[@jigwaille]

The very purpose of a merging lane is to reach the trafic speed before merging to avoid impeding it. A speed differential of 30mph is dangerous, as a car doing 70 gets closer by 15 meters every second, and you need one second minimum to react. It's not illegal, but it's dangerous, and goes against logic.

[@mrcellophane99]

That's assuming lane 1 is travelling at 70. More likely it is HGVs doing 50. In which case merging at 70 is more dangerous

[@jigwaille]

@@mrcellophane99 Nobody said you have to reach 70, but the speed of trafic. If HGVs are doing 50, merge at 50. Your only job here is to avoid impeding trafic.

[@JosephRichardson]

Also, going past unprotected people on the divider/verge at 70mph could play out very badly - I'd slow down as well. We slow down to 50mph for construction workers with traffic cones and shield vehicles, how fast should we go by a random motorist stuck between 2 lanes of high speed traffic?
