#1 is the Cammers fault. He's going way too fast especially around a sharp corner like that. Not to mention he was using the ENTIRE country road. Had there been a crash, he'd be found responsible.

[@tootsie323]

I did wonder whether, if the 'other vehicle was not slowing down at all,' how said other vehicle was ever making it around that corner...

[@carlstyth8368]

Opposing car was hugging thier own side of the road like a limpet. So couldn't have done anything more. Speed isn't really a factor here either. On roads like that, even if you're crawling, if the timings sweet, you are going to come together.

[@VictheSecret]

⁠Hugging their side is part of the problem. If they moved out on bends, they'd be able to see further round them and be more visible to oncoming traffic.

[@martingdavies]

I agree. At best they were in the centre of the road. What did they expect might happen if another was to appear from the opposite direction. Even if both cars were travelling at 25mph for example, that's a closing speed of 50mph.

[@GG-ml3vr]

Clip 3.yeah you can filter,but not doing about 60 in a 30,what a bad rider.

[@ditch3827]

That is not filtering but overtaking. Far too fast and I think you are meant to get back onto your side of the road when a car is coming towards you too.

[@Junoleda]

You can’t filter when there’s only one lane

[@ditch3827]

@@Junoleda Very true, but filtering is a slow speed manoeuvre or at least should be. Going passed a line of traffic so fast that you cannot pull in when traffic is coming towards you is more overtaking than filtering to my mind. But either way is totally reckless.

[@electrickinetic5139]

Clip 3 came off his bike due to going over a manhole cover. In doing so the friction changed instantly, and the rider had zero time to react made worse due to speed. The friction between rubber, road surface and manhole covers are different in all conditions let alone greasy conditions as a result of the first rain after a period of warm weather.

[@listerofsmeg884]

Don't think he's quite doing 60 but is certainly too fast just before the crash. Particularly amusing as he passes a speed camera too.

[@greywolftic]

1st clip was cutting the corner, so what do you expect?

[@AlexM-mh7gw]

#10 - Don't let people out, especially on high speed roads! It's dangerous. They'll find a gap 20-30 seconds later.

[@Ellis01234567890]

Yep risking getting rear ended to save someone you don't know 10 seconds. If it's slow moving traffic fine I get letting people out and of course I do it myself. But stopping a free flowing 50mph+ to let someone out is moronic.

[@type17]

Yep, the rule of thumb is - Be predictable: never reverse priorities (except if all relevant lanes are stationary).

[@matthewfoster6620]

#3 😂😂😂😂 serves you right

[@StarskyQC]

1:33 Jordan learned why bikers avoid wet manhole covers. Avoid wet white lines too, unless you want another insurance payout.

[@BadgerBoy59]

#8 I would definitely be sending that footage to the local cab licensing authority to get that guy sacked. He has no business being entrusted with driving other people around when he demonstrates aggressive behaviour like that

[@dacabe1]

[@brokenmusician1]

Looked like the biker dropped the rear end on a wet drain cover. Also filtering way too fast.

[@robindeath7568]

Not filtering in this instance, overtaking on the wrong side of the road, at speed and failing to yield to traffic approaching in the correct lane. Pretty dumb really and lucky just to has scrached the paintwork.

[@MrMaster2262]

#7 - You could tell the van was going middle lane and he was in front so technically she hit him... would be interesting to know what the insurance company did

[@konradgreen2567]

technically no, the van veered into her lane at the last second, so he caused the collision with an unsafe lane change. you can see him drive over the dotted white line for the lane marking just as they appear, with his right front wheel, so he was fully in the left lane till that point. but yes, given his road position and speed, I wouldnt have tried to go next to him myself, but she technically did nothing wrong.

[@gloriousradio]

@@konradgreen2567 Not sure about that - it's actually a single carriageway, there's no lane markings until the roundabout - so she shouldn't really have been overtaking to be alongside him in the first place. He was moving into the correct lane for the direction he wanted to take, she was overtaking him into that lane as it formed.

[@kravdraa7]

'Big Bad Drivers' needs some lessons on driving and behaviour!

[@stulop]

#3 Wet, slippery manhole cover. Do not brake or change direction across wet manhole covers. If he had been going a bit slower it just wouldn't have happened, not needing to brake.

[@Jac70]

#9 Cuts into your lane? The lorry couldn't fit in its own lane to get under the bridge so what excatly did you think was gonna happen? This was a case when the brake pedal would have helped you out.

[@malcwhite]

My thoughts exactly

[@wagmiorngmi]

as an artic driver myself, exactly that. There was no way both were going to fit there without wiping each other's mirrors out or one having to go off-piste. As soon as the other truck loomed into view I'd have stopped as close to the kerb as possible, then seen what the other guy was going to do. If he had no intention of stopping then I'd be swiftly bouncing the FNS wheel up the kerb to save my mirror !

[@Saturnuria]

#1 You were both as bad as each other. What did the other driver do that you didn’t? It’s not as if they had the option to use the verge as you did. Also, really nice language to be using in front of a child.

[@satans_son666]

#3 Well deserved for riding your bike like a complete prick! Now imagine someone had stepped out between those cars to cross the road as you opened up the throttle?

[@johnfh]

At 05:10 I'm very surprised at the taxi driver showing his number plate and Licence Number to the video! But I would never get in front of a man like that!

Funny how someone shouting "Pull over!" from within a vehicle with closed windows and engine/traffic noise expects someone else to hear her when they are in similar circumstances 20-30 yards ahead.

[@markgambrill]

#7 they clearly had no intention of pulling over so the constant horn and shouting is completely wasted. Maybe next time don't go so close to another vehicle when approaching a junction. Hold back a bit, get annoyed when they cut in front and go on with your day.

[@Jac70]

Looks like one or two lanes that splits into 3 but cammers decides to go charging into the middle lane, should have held back. Then claims that the other vehicle hit her mirror, didn't appear to be an obvious contact unless the audio is out of sync.

[@techrambler2746]

Seems like classic overconfidence. I bet she knows the roundabout very well and was too focused on getting across it as fast as possible that she didn't even consider that other drivers may need a second to figure out which lane they need to be in. It was her own fault as you said.

#1 Chris. Piece of advice: when approaching a blind bend to the right, move over to the far left and don't attempt to take it anywhere near the speed limit. You practically cut that corner and were driving too fast for the conditions. A good driver will position to straighten out the bends.

#8 I think you’ve blown it on ever getting a taxi of this cab company

[@donaldmackay8439]

If the guy driving the camera car was over to the left instead of cutting the corner, he could have seen further round the bend. Further, he made no effort to slow down for a bend he couldn't see round. If there had been a bump I'd put 80% of it on the cam car, if not all of it. The oncoming car could not get any further over to the left short of mounting the verge, but he should have slowed down as well.

[@thomasgarwell8214]

#9. What's he griping at about the lorry straying, he should look at the type of bridge as some lorries have to go through in the middle to avoid hitting the lowest part. When approaching a bridge like that, and with a bend as well, lorry drivers should slow down when going through because of using the middle of the road

#10 as I remember being told,, 'Courtesy causes confusion and collision'.
