The incident at 5:08 is the reason why I always wait for the other driver to commit to their turn if they have an indicator on before I pull out of side roads/drive ways

[@BrianWatsons]

Yep. My wife was doing a motorcycle course and the instructor had a really good way of explaining this situation - "What does it mean when you see a car approaching with their indicator on? It means they've got their indicator on."

[@miss3305]

Nice riding sir! I heard that chuckle at the end but I am guessing there was some sphincter clenching going on. Bike ones always hit close for me being the daughter of a bike rider and having 2 sons of my own out there on bikes.

[@ColHardy]

​ It was only luck I wasn't doing 100kmh at the time, there was a flood way sign a few hundred metres back and after all the river crossings I had just done I slowed right down then came across this. I went to stop then figured that would be probably a horrible death under that thing and the only option was off road.

[@kineticdeath]

5:05 cammer indicated to change lanes, correct, cammer was then driving in the turn lane, correct. That turn lane proceeded all the way to the intersection, correct.

Dude was never even close to correct in any capacity, ever

[@user-ix4zy2rv1l]

World is breeding too many entitled brats

[@andrewwatson5360]

Absolutely correct. The only problem is drivers who only think about themselves and not the situation they are in like that twit. All they see is the turn signal and that is enough for them to go never dreaming that the signal is for changing lanes or turning left a few metres further on. I don't use my indicators where a car is likely to misinterpret where you are going to turn as inevitably they are poised to go at the slightest prompt. I wait till I'm far enough along to ensure they won't pull out before I'll indicate. Years of riding motorbikes and managing to survive taught me how to read these types of scenarios and ride/drive accordingly. I try to be prepared for anything but watching these clips can be unsettling.

[@shinji2oo4]

don't forget - the audacity to slam on the brakes as well.

[@rogerwagner6940]

I look both ways before crossing a one way street, because being safe is better than being in the right. This goes for both drivers.

The only minor issue I have is that the cammer should have probably stopped indicating once mostly in lane to indicate they weren't turning in.

Secondly there is a triangle giveway sign in the driveway area *pause to see it* It's not the ladies fault because she indicates to change lane to then turn at the intersection ahead. It's bad road design.

Not really, the road design is fine - usually a lot of petrol pumps are placed on corners just like this. Guy was 100% wrong, by law he has to wait till the entire lane to his right is empty before entering it.

[@tin2001]

Once you've experienced it from the other side, you'll realise your indicator is for indicating. I used to stick to the rules as they are written until I had a very similar incident to the video and realised they thought I was turning. Now I indicate to tell people what I'm doing instead of by the letter of the law. Haven't had anything like that happen since.

[@TonyHamlyn]

And the tosser was sitting on the cross hash and not on the turning lane too!

[@TonyHamlyn]

@tin2001 Yeah, when I was a kid my dad was changing from middle to left lane on Parramatta Rd just near a side street where someone pulled out when seeing the indicators and not realising it was just a lane change. I remember the large argument the guy was having with Dad and wasn't happy when the attending police gave him the fine. So now similar to you I try to think of other motorists when indicating to try to avoid confusion with other motorists (and nothing peeves me off more when sitting at a roundabout for a few mins waiting for a gap and the car that entered to the right of me enters and exits without indicating left, which, if indicated, would have given me the chance to enter... of course if they indicated but went straight and I collided with them, it would be my fault lol).

[@SLC2283]

​@@ibast1- In fairness, the driver is watching all four corners while doing this manoeuvre and the rear flare out isn't an issue unless someone is in his lane. The big risk here is normally the back right side, cleaning up the sign or traffic light. He can see that unfold in his RH mirror, but loses sight of the left side at some stage in the turn because of the angle. It's a mistake, but one only prevented by not taking the turn when it's obvious the vehicle is over the front and side lines. Two parties at fault, but one where the truck driver gets sympathy from me.

tricky video at 5:09...

Tricky because the lane to merge into has a road one can make a left turn to just before the lights as well. Nevertheless, given this situation, the person coming from the left should've been more cautious of cars coming from his right, regardless of what the car's indicator might signal you.

4:18 Really? They couldn't have just looped around the roundabout when they realised they were missing their turn and come back to it? It's called a _roundabout_ for a reason. Then driving into a sign was the icing on the stupid cake. EDIT: I just realised they had their left indicator on already. So they didn't miss their turn, they just misjudged it. I mean, REALLY misjudged it...

[@paulkennedy8701]

Upvote for the edit. I was going to point out the indicator.

I love playing DCOA Bingo. Red light runners, wrong way around a roundabout, 'overtaking' on the shoulder, driving the wrong way, truck not giving a shit and barging through. No other DC channel has such variation.

5:20 dude is pushing into the same lane as her wondering what her left indicator is on for 🤦

[@paulkennedy8701]

Her left indicator was on because she was leaving one lane and entering the new left-turn lane. There was nothing to wonder about.

9:30 Olympic Drive / Rawson St Auburn - Far left right turning lane failing to turn right. Dashcammer although not in the wrong should have anticipated it.

@1:29 hands down great driving.

[@dumpsterfire7989]

I will never understand why people need to get that 1 spot ahead or need to change lanes a bunch of times to get to their destination 20 sec earlier (assuming they don't crash and end up 3 hours late). There seems to be an inability to just back off when there's a knob head doing dumb stuff in front of them. I get cut off, I just ease off and have a laugh at the stupidity knowing they are destined for a meeting with a tow truck. Instead of forcing the clot shot on people, they should have been handing out chill pills.

[@DIYTrepanning]

I was driving on Melbourne's Ring Road the other day....and the amount of tailgaters and shit drivers driving like you said...just to get home 20 seconds early! So many F-wits

[@dgphi]

I also don't understand the people who block me from changing lanes. I'm not trying to cut in. I just need to change lanes to make a turn up ahead.

[@lockedinreason]

At 5:17 I was in exactly the same situation as that guy (without the road rage bit) I was at a T-juction just like that one and to my right I saw a car coming up with it's left indicator on. I though they were entering where I was leaving from so I took off. Next thing I knew the guy was beside me yelling his head off out the window. I apologised but he was past caring. I just drove away. Technically the lady should not have hit her left indicator until she had passed that entrance/exit.

[@traj7196]

Technically she was absolutely correct and it was the fault of the other driver for assuming she would enter the servo. Don't blame other people for your errors

[@AnotherDoug]

Legally, the male driver should not have disobeyed a Give Way sign.
