The M25 isn't a motorway, it's a circular car park!
🤣
😂😂😂😂
The worst collision the motorway was in 1993 when a minibus carrying 14 children hit a maintenance vehicle, sadly 12 of the 14 children died as did their teacher.
Wow! 🤯
@@DezzReacts they were travelling about 80 miles an hour
I remember that - it was terrible, this was newspaper headlines for a week in the uk. Very sad..
It was bad but it was nothing compared to the 1 that happened on a foggy bonfire night I think it was where cars just kepty running into the back of the queue - involving a lot of vehicles.
They're traffic officers, who look after the motorways, they're not police and the only job they have to to help keep the motorways running and give help
Thank you!
In this video yes they are traffic officers, employed by the Highways Agency, created mainly to lighten the load of "The Motorway Police" who are actual police officers employed to monitor and tackle criminal activity and or emergencies, the numbers of each agency can depend on where you are in the country and likelihood of expected criminal activity based on historical data.
Unless things have changed recently to completely to change the policing of the Motorway system.
@@DezzReacts yup that’s right and the white cap police are the traffic police
Wombles is the main name of these helpful chaps and gals
@@scoobysean555 You have to explain Wombles, now, heh
Rubber-necking is when driver in the opposite carriage passing an accident take their eyes off the road to crane their heads round to look at the accident as they pass - often running into the car in front of the 😂
I was on tour with a band when that bridge went down and had traveled under it about 20 minutes before it happened.
We knew nothing about it until we checked into the hotel and it was on a TV in the lobby..it really was a miracle nobody was injured!
A bank holiday in the UK is what you call a public holiday in America
Traffic Officers are not police. They are civilians employed by a Uk organisation called the National Highways Agency, which is a department within the UK Government Department for Transport.
Their job is to patrol England’s motorways and help to keep traffic flowing smoothly on all major routes. They attend to breakdowns and clearing incidents quickly thus reducing the impact of incident related congestion and also the risk of secondary incidents. In addition, they coordinate the response of emergency services, manage traffic, clear debris and get closed routes reopened as soon as it’s safe to do so.
Edit: Before there are too many complaints, I should explain that Wales and Scotland have their own Highways Agency departments, under the Devolved Government umbrella but essentially they are fulfilling the same function.
I used to travel the M25 almost every day!! In the morning it was guaranteed to have a traffic build up so I always had to leave about 1 1/2 hours early 😂
Welcome back!! We missed you - and good luck with becoming a member of police !
Good to be back! Thank you! 🙏🏽
The American and UK answer to congestion.... we need more lanes more roads.
Do they not realize that will create MORE congestion!? we need to get out of our cars and onto bicycles.
Ok if you can ride a bicycle
A Kendrick extrication device (KED) is a device used in extrication of victims of traffic collisions from motor vehicles. Commonly carried on ambulances, a KED is typically used by an emergency medical technician, paramedic, or another first responder. It was originally designed for extrication of race car drivers. Typically used in conjunction with a cervical collar, a KED is a semi-rigid brace that secures the head, neck and torso in an anatomically neutral position. Its use is claimed to reduce the possibility of additional injuries to these regions during extrication, although its value has been questioned, as there is a lack of evidence to support its use. The original KED was designed by Richard Kendrick in 1978.
August bank holiday is a single day when all banks and most shops closed. Basically just an extra weekend day.
They weren't playing baseball, it's England remember, it was cricket lol
Cricket is just a game of rounders but with cucumber sandwiches haha
@@markwa546 Rounders is UK baseball with 4 bases finished in a day, Cricket only has 2 set of wickets and a game lasts for weeks
@@vodkablondwhat do you guy's call rugby oh yeah football. Which is kind of like rugby but wearing PPE 😂
By the way i think cricket is shite
The phrase "rubber-necker" came from the USA originally, but is now commonly used in the UK.
In sweden the deadliest accident was in 2009 when a part of E4 collapsed during a heavy trafficed time and 21people died and 17were injured and at the same time a car was going 290 and crashed into 4 cars 3died and 4 injured
27C is 80.6F
August Bank holiday is a public holiday in the UK. It's on the last Monday of August, and effectively signals the end of summer. Lots of people take advantage of the extra day off work to have a long weekend away, and so roads and motorways tend to be very busy over that weekend.
27 degrees celcius is 80.6 farenheit.
An easy rough converion from celsius to fahrenheit is to double it and add 30, so 27°C is roughly 84°F
It's may not be the exact value, but gets you pretty close and is accurate enough for the average person
The M25 is the longest “highway in the world” it circles London and is infinite
The M25 is known as London’s largest car park
16 million motorists .(almost a third of the national population)..not 60 million.
Legal age to purchase alcohol is 18.
Motorways are Interstates & manor Highways.
Those guys are called highway maintenance, they are responsible for keeping traffic moving and if not serious move.the cars to hard shoulder
The reason I avoid the motorways unless there is absolutely no other option. I don't mind extra time to keep away from the dangers of the motorways.
Our cops often do wear hi vis at all times. Even there black vests do have hi vis battenburg elements on them. Those blokes however are known as HATO, Highways Agency Traffic Officer, they are basically there to do exactly what you said, manage accident scenes and report and faults or damages with the national highways in England only and possibly Wales. In Scotland we don’t have HATO. They are also very good at sitting on the side of the motorway making you shit yourself thinking they are DVSA / VOSA if you are a Truck driver like myself😂
Have you ever tried asking Google about your many many questions you will find it very useful. You remind me of a very small child of about 3 years of age who keeps saying to parents, why is this and why is that, why why why. You would be surprised how much Europeans know about America, we know that you call your motorways Highways. 😞
If I googled and researched everything I would have zero reaction videos.
i agree, it is frustrating that he keeps doing this, but as the saying goes : Comments are good for the algorithm
Yes bro good channel. M25 motorway is a circular motorway. It does a circle of around London. All other motorways in UK just go straight up and straight back down
🤝🏽
Er... don't forgei the M60 which does the same around Manchester. Agreed - good channel!
@@tonybarr858 oh yh? Didn't know m60 is circular aswell. Respect for that
August bank holiday goes back to the early 1800s . It was to give bank clerks a day off other than Sundays and Christmas. The two guys in the land rover they are high way officers they help out the cops and they patrol the motorways looking for incidents and debris in the road a truck driver is allowed to pull over on the highway and pee up his wheel .
PRESTON, England -M6 jct 31 was the worst accident in uk motorway history - A bus crashed and burst into flames in a 'horrific' pileup with 10 other vehicles, killing at least 15 people and injuring more than 35 others, according to rescue workers who called it Britain's worst highway accident ever.
'The coach apparently managed to end up on top of two other vehicles,' said a senior policeman at the scene in the Lancashire countryside near Preston about 200 miles northwest of London. 'It was the most horrific crash I've ever seen.'
Great video mate...there was one similar here in Australia....passenger train got crushed under a bridge in Granville 40yrs? ago
DEzz just FYI
They weren't playing baseball, they were playing cricket, a national summertime sport of ours.
And the August bank holiday is basically a day of rest from work on the last Monday in August. We have a fair few Bank Holidays in the UK each year
New years day bank holiday
Easter 2 days Good Friday and Easter Monday
May Bank Holiday, first Monday in May
Spring Bank Holiday, end of May start of June
August Bank Holiday last Monday of August
And to finish the year off Christmas Day and Boxing Day
We also get extra Bank Holidays for very special occasions such as our late Queens Funeral
They are called Bank Holidays in the most simplest of historical terms as the day that Banks closed for audit purposes, but has grown in the number of days per year to now eight days, yes all Banking stops on all bank holidays even online transactions are deferred to the next business day
Dang, thanks!
August bank holidays when we only do a full day week and have an extended long weekend Friday to Monday. Dean Webb 😊 From the UK.
welcome back Dezz, rubbernecking is when a driver can't keep his /her eyes on the road and will constantly keep turning their head forward and sideways . Bank Holidays are when the banks are closed and people get a day or 2 holiday/vacation because the days takings from any work place get s deposited into the bank at the end of each day but not on bank holidays .
CELSIUS to Fahrenheit
27 C = 84 F
** Double the celsius (54), and add 30 !!
Does not compute in minus temps, but accurate within 2 or 3 degrees……..but do you really care if its 84, or 85 ?!
Its hot
Their traffic officers. They do the jobs that police don't do.
I drive on uk motorways its full of neckend drivers. But lately there turned into SMART MOTORWAYS.
By turning the hard shoulder into a live lane some cleaver MP has came up with that idea 😂
hi from England. GOOD LUCK in becoming a police office...a truly noble life path.....a bank holiday happens several times a year, its just a holiday for 1 day....usually on a monday to make a 3 day off work....cameras are literally EVERYWHERE.....its a good thing for catching unlawful people....cameras in the UK solve ALOT of crime...the 2 guys in yellow n orange in the car are motorway workers...they back up the police if needed n take care of situations that dont need police presence
We’ve missed you! Good luck to you! Let us know how it goes becoming a police officer 🎉
He’s backkk
Highways Agency Traffic Officers are not Police, and hence there is no fitness standard, their vehicle has yellow strobe lights, not blue strobe lights and sirens like a Police vehicle would.
Traffic wombles😂
CZcams adverts resets the videos into the lowest quality
Bank holiday where you celebrate ahaha nah man it’s not America , USA celebrate anything to feel special 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Part 2 yeah!’ 👍🏻
Hey good luck with your future endeavours bro! You can be the best if you want it! I think I can’t do something then set my sights on getting it and I got it
I appreciate that!
Good luck mate.

They are not police,
Forgive me, but Iifvyou have trouble with chewing sounds, ..what other much more serious & audibly dustracting things are going to trigger you on duty ??
You are going to have to thicken your skin metaphorically to such relatively simple things, and still be able to pay attention to all around you as an officer.
I don't mean this to insult, but to forewarn you.
Bro… cmon now 🤣 everyone has a pet peeve, It doesn’t shut me down into a panic attack 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@DezzReacts cool, I am sincerely glad you understand that of yourself*. 🤗 And the best of luck with your training courses and practical duty training period/duration.
*Too many people seem to be unable to do just that these days, which is why those peeps do weirdass things that lands them in situational hot water to becoming perps.🧐
