Bad UK Driving Vol 286

[@myoldmate]

Love this channel😊 I rant all the time when I drive. Might seem that I'm an arsehole. I am a good driver though, passed my test in '75. No accidents that were my fault. Ranting to oneself is cathartic, much better than expressing your frustrations by driving dangerously. The LDC is like my soulmate, he observes, criticises, moans like fuck yet still drives professionally himself. Keep up the good work buddy.

[@Holycurative9610]

To actually stop in the live lane of a motorway because you don't want to queue is one of the most dangerous things I've seen in a long time. They should be nicked!! People could be killed because of a bit of impatience and if they drive like this I often wonder what they're like as a person.

[@SimonJM]

As a passing point, that first scooter - not only were they way, way too close (as an ex-motor cyclist I was wincing and twitching!) they also spent a LOT of time with their tyres on the white line which gives even less grip in the wet!

[@smilerbob]

Commented the same about the lines and I don’t even ride (and never have) but common sense tells you there is less grip on a smooth painted surface (Edited for typo)

[@MrGBH]

That mini-roundabout was one heckuva blind corner. That guy had zero hope of spotting you

[@stephenhill8790]

I was going to say the same thing, how are you supposed to give way to what you cannot see 🧐

[@stuarthtodd]

Yeah, I was going to say the same. That said, the person in that 4x4 should've maybe gone a wee bit slower. I know I'd go very slow coming up on that if I knew the roundabout. I've noticed with so many roundabouts now it's tremendously hard to see to the right because of tress, walls or other obscura. Still though, you're absolutely right he had very little chance of seeing anyone with that corner.

[@shm5547]

Which is why there's a massive 'give way' sign for vehicles approaching the roundabout, to ensure all approaching drivers give way to traffic on the carriageway of the roundabout.

[@bazwdm9354]

Creep and peep.

[@michaeleddison6765]

​​@@shm5547absolutely, which is why the cammer of this channel is at fault of not giving way, some people don't realise that yes you give way to the right to traffic already on the roundabout (not the traffic waiting or about to join) but you also have to give way to traffic on the left that's already on the roundabout, the other driver entered the roundabout first when it was empty so did nothing wrong especially on this roundabout when they couldn't see the other road

[@insoft_uk]

5:59 that’s a disgrace that mini roundabout, I’m a cyclist that follows the Highway Code always go around mini roundabouts stop at red but as a cyclist that’s one roundabout I wouldn’t go around as likely get slammed by anyone car from the side as it would look like I’m turning off not going straight around too much of a bend

[@mikehall5211]

When the scooter cut in front of the car and back into the turn right lane 😮

[@dhcgvvchnchb1161]

Sadly, the only option for the scooter in the first clip is to slow down, giving yourself more time to react to hazards so you don't have to brake hard and subsequently give him more time to react also. This will also give him the chance he so desperately wants to overtake and then he isn't your problem anymore. It's so mental that this is the world we live in and we have to make allowances for people who do not seem to give a toss about their own safety because us as drivers will still get the blame when someone else uses the roads irresponsibly.

[@racerboi6957]

5:31 i'm pretty sure having watched in 0.25x speed that the other vehicle was already on the mini roundabout when you arrived. therefore the rule changes to give way to those already on said roundabout. a common thing that people complain about on mini roundabouts is people pulling out when they themselves weren't even at it yet.

[@thelondondashcam]

Now show me where it says that in the highway code

[@racerboi6957]

@@thelondondashcam a mini roundabout functions to me as a normal roundabout just smaller with extra care needed to not block them. Which is how I was taught by my instructor. Giving way to the right on a roundabout is completely normal and would cover this scenario. rule 185 of Highway Code.

[@bluecardholder]

The A3/M25 junction is a nightmare - coming up from Guildford last week, we patiently waited in the right lane to go from the A3 North to M25 East - very few last minute queue jumpers, but the worst was an articulated lorry that bowled up the outside lane then pushed his way into the queue at the last moment on the hatched markings, using his bulk to intimidate any cars that tried to stop him. It was cynical and dangerous.

[@MrGBH]

I ride a moped currently, and I was considering working for Uber. Considering the additional costs of delivery insurance I decided against it I am highly doubtful that anybody riding as dangerously as that first clip even bothers with stuff like that

[@ablestringer9063]

That A3 turn off is nearly as bad as the one coming down the M11 towards London turning off for the M25. All kinds of shenanigans go on there.

[@BoschExxcel]

I live near to the A3/M25 junction and it’s absolute hell trying to use it at the moment. As you say, a real chance of being rear-ended due to idiotic drivers cutting in. Luckily I can avoid going anti-clockwise on the M25 and do it as little as possible.

[@trevorberridge6079]

[5:30] From the other car's point of view this is a blind turning. He would have to pull out a bit to even see traffic coming from your direction and he certainly wouldn't hear your EV. If you look at your rear view at [5:57] you can see that his view of your road is completely obscured. When you add the way the roundabout is squeezed into that tiny space I would say this is more a matter of bad road design than bad driving. Yes, he could have been more cautious. But unless you are familiar with this roundabout you'd be hard pressed to turn around it very well without some difficulty. it's just a ridiculous bit of planning.

[@philipmillington5509]

Another great video. Whenever I get a queue jumper I stay close to vehicle in front as not to let em in, but you get dopes letting em in

[@Stu81]

For that mini roundabout you would have thought that the powers that be who obviously are very incompetent in designing most roundabout markings should put a stop sign at the entry or at least a mirror ahead of it because of just how much of a closed junction it is.

[@smilerbob]

That scooter rider in the first clip, not going to mention everything you have already said but you can tell he is as inexperienced as they come by the fact he is riding along the painted lines...in the wet 🤦‍♂ As for the light, given the car started to move we have to give him the benefit of doubt there that the lights had changed to green...just (we all know they were still red / amber 😁)

[@michellesimpson4364]

Why would that biker risk his own safety like that 😮 madness

[@LondonFazerRider]

Regards to the mini round about, The highway code states that "All vehicles MUST pass round the central markings except large vehicles which are physically incapable of doing so." (Rule 118), so in my eyes your vehicle is large enough that it is physically impossible to complete the maneuverer without going over the central white marking and it also looks like you made every effort to try and go round it.

[@nuttyslack]

Also, if you were to try to drive completely around the centre marking on that roundabout, it could easily be an invitation impatient idiots who’ll try to overtake you as they really really hope you’ll be turning left as indicated by your positioning.

[@michaelweston8569]

That A3 slip road clip reminds me of a similar situation near to my old place of work in Brentford, Agfa on the Great West Road. The office gates were just before a turn off to the on-ramp for the M4. The inside lane for the M4 used to queue back awfully, especially on a Friday afternoon. So, you'd get loads of queue jumpers crawling down the middle lane and looking to cut in at the last minute. Difference was, plod would regularly camp out and nick them all. Nice.

[@DeadpanCrypto]

@9:47 I mean you keep saying he cut the corner, but really all he did was change lanes - which seems to be because then it sounds like he is entirely at fault. Luckily he then managed to pull off some defensive driving for you :) He changed lanes without cutting anyone up and was safe to do, you then dangerously push in to the lane he is already in, fully aware he is there and then mock him for poor driving.

[@thelondondashcam]

So you didn't actually read anything about the highway code that I put on the screen then 😳

[@DeadpanCrypto]

@@thelondondashcam You said it yourself, it suggests you don't - it isn't illegal. Would I do it? No I wouldn't. But he didn't have a chance to undertake you because you were pushing into the lane before he was even right alongside you. Now you seem to refer to the Highway Code - please let me know where it says what you did is okay exactly? I'm pretty sure you pushing into the lane, cutting him up, especially when the video shows you knew very well he was there is far more illegal than the undertaking you have a problem with him potentially performing and far more dangerous 😳

[@thelondondashcam]

I didn't push into anything if you're not overtaking you move to the left which is what I was doing he was overtaking on the left you're supposed to overtake on the right, it's not illegal to overtake on the left but it is in The Highway Code not to do it and you can still be prosecuted for dangerous driving for overtaking on the left you can hear my indicator going so he knew where I was going but still tried to block me off. Interesting how you didn't see any of that and defended him.

[@DeadpanCrypto]

​@@thelondondashcam Again I am not condoning his actions for being a selfish driver, but however you want to phrase it he ended up being in the lane you wanted before you were, he didn't "cut a corner" he simply changed lanes to the lane he wanted before you did. You then seem to think all bets are off because you deem he has done something wrong and that is an incredibly dangerous mindset for driving. You have said numerous times on other videos that just because someone has their indicator on does not give them right of way and I absolutely agree, so why does that not also count for you exactly? Again he is probably a selfish driver, but he was in that lane before you and he did so legally, he clearly was not going to let you in. You knew he was there, your indicator does not give you right of way but you still moved into that lane, so how you can say you didn't push in/cut him up? You can see everything you both did and I am not defending him whatsoever, what I was baffled by were your comments and actions in a video you chose to upload as if to paint how wronged you were and yelling at them for being rightfully annoyed you just cut them up at a fair old speed and that you "have a camera" as if it that exonerates the dangerous part you just played. Instead of .... applying the break when you could see he wasn't letting you in, moving into that lane behind him, then moaning about what a selfish driver he is.

A few comments on here about the mini roundabout. When approaching any roundabout that has an entrance that can not been seen clearly, slow down, approach with caution and give everybody a chance to see each other. That 4x4 could have looked, seen nothing, moved slowly then you decide to keep going over the line at (ok a slower) speed but without consideration for the concealed entry. Should be compulsory to stop at all roundabouts before entering.

[@scienceexperimentsforhomee261]

I agree with everything you say except the last bit as that would negate the whole point of roundabouts which is to aid traffic flow and stopping at every roundabout entrance would drastically slow the flow.

[@nuggetbunny5551]

The standard of driving is poor at best. And the consideration to other road users is 0 to none. Everybody needs to be somewhere urgently and quickly and everybody drives like they are so much more important than everybody else.

[@pjcaradoc]

Defensive driving is not "making allowances for idiots", it's anticipating potential hazards (that may occur due to human error, which is inevitable) and pro-actively taking measures to avoid worsening said hazard. It might seem unfair that we have to do this, but that's just how the world is, and defensive driving has been proven to reduce risk on the road and lessen the likelihood of an incident occurring. I agree though, that there are some situations where you can't drive defensively, or do anything to alleviate the situation, such as when somebody is tailgating you, and you are unable to go any faster or move over to reduce risk. THAT is an infuriating situation.

[@shm5547]

@@thelondondashcam just think about what you are saying, you can see clearly that there's nothing to the right, far up the road. The other driver cannot. If priority to the right extended beyond the carriageway of the roundabout, it would be impossible for any driver to make a safe emerge from that side road and you might think doing 20/30mph across that mini-roundabout was fine as you can see its clear to the right. That interpretation of the highway code is dangerous. If you read what the highway code actually says, it is not just priority to the right, it is also adjust your speed to fit in with traffic already on the roundabout. Consider who would have priority if 3 vehicles arrived at the same time, the “mexican-standoff situation”. Nobody! That is until, crucially, one driver takes the initiative to emerge onto the carriageway of the roundabout, thus gaining priority. You can see in this situation how priority is only gained once on the roundabout. Consider another roundabout, where there is queuing traffic already ahead of you on the carriageway of the roundabout. Do you get priority over them because you are coming from the right? Nope, they have priority because they are already ahead of you on the road.

[@keith6400]

The vehicles already on the roundabout concept is ridiculous in relation to mini roundabouts. When you think it about traffic on the left could race to get onto the actual roundabout ahead of you. Eventually all traffic could be racing to achieve priority.

[@grumpyoldpianistplus]

This video has confirmed what I said in a previous one: mini-roundabouts were put in places where there was never MEANT to be one. The idea was simply for allowing drivers to get a chance for coming out of a side road. As in this clip, it's almost impossible not to go over the centre of the roundabout due to the angle of the roads approaching it. In fact, I do not see why it is a no - no to go over the centre PROVIDED that all approach roads can be seen and there is nobody approaching from any feed-in road. The only reason for going AROUND the centre of a mini-roundabout is to allow others to 'fish-tail' around other vehicles when the area is busy.

Likewise, if I was slow moving off and somebody did it to ME, I'd have no beef with them; win some, lose some.

Easy fix for the A3 junction would be to run orange poles along the slip line for about a half mile and have it signposted well in advance. That way, you couldn't cut in at the last chance even if you wanted. Just poor junction planning.

Wouldn't that just move the problem and the 'last chance' back half a mile without actually changing anything?

You're obviously familiar with that area, and people trying to cut into the jam on the very last few yards.

I think we have the technology to put up bollards that rise and fall along the length of the slip road queue. Cars could be detected magnetically and if traffic slows to the point of there being a queue up the bollards go. They could even have light sensors which detect indication to let people out of the queue but no one is getting in. Alternatively we could just suspend the law for people like that and try percussive attitude adjustment on them. There is no police about anyway.

1:47 Beemer Reaper. A hazard to other road users, correlatively. I would even say Audi, But Much Worse. Interesting they are a police fave 13:16

Your scooter rider has had no proper training ! He is essentially as experienced as a bicycle rider ! He will learn either by instruction or by experience, neither of which he currently has.

Disagree with cycling on the footpath, however, IF the road is clear there is no way i would wait for a green man to walk across the road!

[@retroonhisbikes]

Slow down! that pisses off tailgaters often im as slow as 10mph

[@brianbickle7395]

An impatient bmw driver??? Never!!

4:23 This young child will be (if they live long enough) a driver in the future. Let's hope the parents are NOT their teacher. We all know the outcome of that. Until then, the child will be a poor pedestrian & poorer cyclist. 5:06 That roundabout was designed by an expert panel... of blind people. It could do with a simple remodel, including removal of shrubbery to open the view. It's not helped by the extreme angle, either.

Whatever happend to the "Only a fool breaks the two second rule" looks like he was going for the 2 millisecond rule, what a moron. I drive up the A1M every day on my commute into work, about 70% of the drivers are way too close e.g about 2 cars lengths away at 80mph in the outside lane. Where are the police, they should stop the lot of them for dangerous driving. At 70mph the bare minimum you should be (in the dry) is 70 metres (about 16 cars lengths)

LDC, Your question regarding "what do you do when (scooter riders) drive this close in wet conditions?" [Or words to that effect]. The answer is... When they fall off, first thing to do is check that their organ donor card is up-to-date.

Answers on a postcard! Showing your age there 😊

Why can’t learners drive on their own when learner bikers can? Just wondering why there is a difference.

[@garyscott1447]

Bored from the offset.

[@paulsmaleThefourthdimension]

You are full of a lot of excuses, you could go around that roundabout, and that car was already manoeuvring on the roundabout. You failed there, should not be so cock sure of your self.

[@DennyG995]

Oi! Oi!

[@preferredimage]

0:36 Pop the handbrake (no brake lights!) ;)

[@georgebarnes8163]

Not clever at all.

[@IndigoJo]

When you've got an idiot sitting on your tail, put your hazards on to tell them to back off. Whether it's a scooter rider or a trucker.

Vast majority of bad drivers are Johnny Foreigner and their womenfolk. FFS.
