UK Bad Drivers & Driving Fails Compilation | UK Car Crashes Dashcam Caught (w/ Commentary)

[@fredsmith1970]

first clip had plenty of time to adjust speed and brake, though continued at the same speed but just leant on the horn.

[@MrBioTom1]

It's the classic "well I'm technically in the right so I'll keep going cause it's your fault". People seem to prioritise being right over being safe and sensible. Also funny how they say the car pulling out "crashes into them" when the cam car fully crashed into the other car with no intention of stopping.

[@gregcooper2719]

I think he changed his brake discs for 2 slices of honey roast ham

[@RagedDrew]

Spot on, he had more than ample time to adjust and to stop before impact. I really hope his insurance see it that way . He might think twice before deliberately crashing into someone.

Big Squirt #3 (0:55) the car driver isn't the only idiot there. Driving 10 feet behind someone at 70mph is a death wish. Especially a van that you can't see in front of. Change your ways and remember only a fool breaks the two second rule.

First clip. He crashed into you? No... you hammered into him... despite having plenty of time to risk assess and stop. Your hazard perception is atrocious.

[@RagedDrew]

Absolutely, I couldn't have said it better myself.

[@hozzer68]

You’d better not let the insurance company see that dashcam, you made no effort whatsoever to avoid the collision, regardless of the person pulling out you still have a duty where possible to avoid accidents.

Yup, enough time to brake there. May have ended up being a bit of a hard brake dependent on reaction time, but still easy! Only speaking from experience here from about a month ago when someone pulled out on me (and she was on the phone like the guy in the clip). The people behind me I think actually clocked first and stopped slightly before I did, I was bracing to be rear-ended and saw they'd stopped a distance behind haha!)

[@MFFMPN]

@@FistOfFioriyou sound like someone in the know👍🏻 so what type of vehicle was the dash cam driving?? It appears to be some kind of small commercial vehicle perhaps 4t - 7t light vehicle maybe!! What type of load were they're carrying, what was the weight of the load?? All these are factors you have surely taken into account!! Either way in the eyes of the law the Nissan Micra is in the wrong... This accident most definitely could've been avoided had the Nissan Micra just waited...

[@steamhammer2k]

I don`t know how much more of a warning the cam car driver needed to avoid this accident if you can call it accident it looked almost like they deliberately drove into the side of the car pulling out.

All that selfish prick cared about was getting him on his feet and playing down the harm that had been done.

[@engineeredlifeform]

Defo going too fast given there were zig zags and a school, but the cammer should have slowed and looked left, and given way too.

[@MRCAGR1]

4:18 whether the car jumped the red light is debatable, it depends on where the stop line is relation to the roundabout. If the car had crossed the stop line when the lights changed to Amber then they were entitled to continue. Secondly, there’s no give way markings on the road nor a give way sign, the cammers car was behind a stop line and should have waited until the other car had moved on. This to me is a problem with light controlled roundabouts is that they don’t always have give way markings on the entrances to the roundabout, which appears to change the normal give way to traffic already on the roundabout to if on the roundabout and stopped then give way to those joining the roundabout. There’s a roundabout near me with exactly this situation but I don’t know what the position is at the confluence of traffic joining the roundabout and those who have been stopped on the roundabout by lights at busy times.

That was dangerous driving from the start. And 7:25 didn't even care that she could have wound up underneath that artic. I almost hit two joggers at a junction who decided to keep jogging right in front of my HGV as I was pulling out, even though all the other pedestrians had stopped because another driver was letting me out. As I thanked the driver and started moving off, they appeared in front of me. I thought there was no way I was not going to hit them because of the distance between us and the time needed to get to the brake and get the vehicle stopped, but somehow my reaction was fast enough (and I didn't even stall the engine), but I was shaking afterwards and that wouldn't have even been my fault if I'd hit them.

3:21 this is one of my local roundabouts. Both vehicles in lanes going to the M6. Once on the roundabout the right hand lane opens up and you can either stay in the lane for the outside lane of the dual carriageway going to the M6 or steer right for the Bermuda Park industrial estate (or keep going round for the A444 back into town, etc). If the Honda had stayed in his lane he would have been in the correct and inside lane for the dual carriageway and M6 so had no need to try and change lanes to get in the outside lane for the dual carriageway and the M6. Having moved lanes in error and nearly caused an accident they then move into the lane they should have been in all along, after nearly causing a 2nd accident. The Honda was 100% in the wrong. This roundabout isn't particularly difficult from the lane the Honda was in.
