Public service announcement.
The horn and the brake need to be operated separately. Honking at danger dosent make it go away
5:40 is pretty bad for this. No attempt to do.... anything to react to what was happening besides honk.
@@adam9626 Tbh he did less than nothing, after honking just steered towards the other car.
They do operate separately.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
brake
Yep. If these tools were even _half_ as quick on the brakes as they are on the horn, 90% of these incidents could have been avoided.
Geese never listen.
Mad how so many people would rather just crash because they have right of way and the other driver is wrong. Could just brake and slow down then you'd not have to faff about with all the insurance paperwork, scrapping your and their car and causing injury instead of trying to prove a point...
A crash is worth less than damaging their fragile egos.
@Federal Bureau of Investigation That's exactly what they write on their legal claim form ... 😂😂😂
Except they get £2500 eachfor the personal injury claims.
That’s assuming they saw it in the first place...
So very much to the point.its as if it's the principle of the matter to have an accident.as you said most of these could have been avoided and you can see people pulling out a mile off,yeah you will be annoyed and may shout and swear but to crash in to them for the sake of it is ludicrous and absolutely unnecessary.
I can't be the only one that's noticed that most mini roundabout collisions would be avoided if the 'victim' wasn't driving over the middle of it.
They driving same car? From looks wise
Reminds me of this video. UK roads seem to be designed to accommodate cars a lot, causing them to drive faster. I think with better road design a lot of these crashes are preventable. czcams.com/video/Ra_0DgnJ1uQ/video.html
The one at 10:22 was even on the wrong side of it! beat that
I hate it, I always shout at people and tell them how stupid it is, its called a roundabout for a reason
Or even effectively the wrong way round
My dog has better hazard perception than half of these people
I'm betting your dog is a better driver too
and a higher IQ.
and he doesn't have a dashcam
Have you got a Husky?
1:32 prime example
adds68 literally swerved into an incoming vehicle.
I guess you could maybe argue his reaction was to swerve around the car by going into the other lane... but the car pulled out so quickly. However, maybe should've anticipated it.
@@GroseyCoinHunts yeh regardless of right of way most people seem to forget the middle pedal ......
Merc is visible at 5:41, pulls out at 5:42 and the crash happened 2 seconds later at 5:44. The average human reaction time is about 500ms, probably less but let's be generous. This dude started honking right before crashing, let's say it was about 1.5 seconds after the merc pulled out. An impressive reaction time that's 3 TIMES SLOWER than average. I get that we might get distracted behind the wheel but I think he got lucky. Could have been a kid crossing the street. Here's to him taking what happened as a lesson
I would actually say yes. He actively started steering before slowing down. First thing should be brake.
I’ve seen a few videos where people have swerved into the other lane and caused more carnage because of it.
Brake always comes first, it seems that’s not the case anymore with more and more horn hogs.
ABS exists for several reasons, controllability being one!
Most clips go like this: “oh”, horn, steer, brake (sometimes accelerate). Bang “oh you t**t”
Brake, steer (hopefully avoid) then horn? Surely?
I think the cammer deliberately went for a near miss in an attempt to scare the merc driver, but f*cked up. Or texting.....
Wow this anonymous guy gets into a lot of accidents
@@bendover-eo9iu *insurance
what a silly name too!
Harvey G - Even bloody Stevie Wonder could of avoided that accident
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
What minute
4:17
@@SA-xg2id 4:17
To be fair they could both do with a visit to specsavers.
The cammer at 1:30 has absolutely shocking hazard awareness, the front of the car was sticking out for at least 4 or 5 seconds before he hit him, should have spotted that car as soon as he came over the crest.
I remember watching the clip when it was first released and I think he might have earned himself TOTW.
You say that but he could have been looking at his screen on his dash but yeah could have been avoided but that car should have stopped moving why pull out on someone anyways?
I think he knew he made a mistake, we are all human after all, these things happen.
@@Kostasoflow if he was looking at his cam then that would just prove further the accident could be avoided. His best chance of a successful claim was to avoid sending that to them otherwise he would have lost as he could have breaked easily to a slow slow stop.
You can see the silver car pulling out from the start of the video. I count 5 parked cars plus a gap big enough for at least two more. It seems he didn't brake at all.
8:46 imagine running a red light and writing the other car off and still trying to claim they were in the wrong 😂😂
1:28 I managed to boil the kettle, make a brew AND drink it in the time that silver car pulled out to the time the cammer hit it.
Absolutely unforgivable that one. You could see the car sticking out from the very start of the clip and the cammer should've already been slowing. Hazard perception of a sloth.
@@onepoolio8473 I just BET he was staring at his phone at the time.
Harvey G was just looking for a payout, he should get charged for driving without due care and attention since he didn't even attempt to touch the brakes
He do that on purpose.
You are wrong I know that because I'm a police officer / training to be a commercial pilot
@@Arounadabout Weird flex
@MarkDrake Nope, you're wrong, and I'm Spartacus
@@Arounadabout We are f***** then.
Those two girls in that Clio that hit and run, I hope he caught them up
I wondered this as well... Was hoping someone could update
@@willpchess The update came from the original video. The cam car driver said he went after her but she'd disappeared. The Police found her some time later and apparently her father paid for the damage and took her to the dash cam driver to apologise. Karma. 👍😀
@@kayfj4903 brilliant thanks for letting us know and good on the dad
@@kayfj4903 that’s class!
@@kayfj4903 What a surprise, she's a Daddy's girl.
There should be a compilation of TotW clips so we can judge the To2021.
Most people’s hazard perseption is just shocking
As is their spelling!
*perception
@@chrislloyd1505 Ah stop lol he just made a mistake..
The clip at 1:30: outta nowhere!
Its the self entitlement I think.
13:24 "OMG I'm so sorry, I can't help it, I'm a ✨ Scorpio ✨. Anyways bye bye 👋😜"
Two blondes. Nice!
LOL
@Mer Der Wow, I assume they got caught then? Did the owner of the clip say what happened?
Oops lol 🤪🤪🤪
adds68 "My magic horn will move this car out of the way so I don't have to brake."
"Oh, it didn't work."
the amount of people who sent in clips where they could have done more to avoid the collision...shocking
Most of them would be second or third hand downloaded from other sites rather than the actual driver.
He's spoiling us this week! 🤗🥳
Agreed! 🤗🥳
Did you just assume their identity?!?
For those wondering, Harvey G is at 4:17
Thanks 👍🏻 he should have his licence revoked.
@@popeye9048 I completely agree 👍
Thanks. Not sure why people dont add timestamps to their comments. Only takes a minute
@@philipreid2542 Exactly, helps us all out
"Fuck sake!" - says the dashcammer travelling at just below the speed of sound before being involved in a collision...
It's been a while since I watched one of these and it never fails to amaze me that people will rather drive themselves into an accident they could have avoided over conceding right of way for self preservation
14:00 - Chris, just because you are turning right before the obstruction to traffic doesn't mean you can think you're too important to wait in the queue and drive down the wrong side of the bloody road!
19:42 my question is why is Taimur just hogging the right lane for no reason. Worst kind of drivers
I'm wondering if they were racing, as he wasn't hanging about after the crash, straight off the motorway.
@@garethperry363 They were indeed racing.
The way he scarpered off the motorway pdq indicates he’d been up to no good. Probably racing and/or blocking the other car.
@@garethperry363 To be fair to Taimur, the evasive action they took meant it was far safer to go down the slip road than try to stay on the motorway. Shouldn't have been in the outside lane, of course (dreadful driving), but nowhere near as bad as the other tool.
8:44 Those lights were clearly timed wrong werent they. And at 9:42 for those wondering she drove off and was found to be on a provisional only.
14:06 both Chris and the Audi at fault there, though Chris even more so.
Wrong side of the road, overtaking all those cars on solid white lines, just because you were too impatient to wait a couple of minutes for the level crossing to open so you could turn
I agree. Both drivers were effectively doing the same thing; overtaking cars/a car in the opposing lane so as not to get held up. I'm guessing that would go 50/50 on their insurances. 🤔
Chris was going too fast which gave him no time to react to the other car. The other car was crawling along.
They're both probably locals too, so they know the area, but even knowing the area is no excuse to drive on the wrong side of the road like this, especially the camera who drove like 500 yards unlike 100 yards for the Audi.
It's people that speed up when they see a hazard or never touch their brakes purely because they have a dashcam that keeps channels like this alive, may we thank them for their sacrifice.
I doubt their insurance companies do. 😄😁😄😁
Harvey G you need to surrender your license. No need to drive into the van at all.
add68 did exactly the same, I just don't understand why people don't use their brakes
Because he was so astronomically slow at reacting what do you reckon would’ve happened insurance wise . He still would’ve won ?
@@trapbandicoot7877 its a really good point tbf, whats sad is I think the dashcammer would win as the other van is technically the actual cause of the accident, even tho in theory it could have been avoided
"i have right of wa-" BANG
@@declanduckworth7978 if the mini-bus insurance company is worth anything, they will argue this one, at least for shared fault. There is no doubt the mini-bus driver is at fault, for entering the roundabout and crossing the first exit unsafely. But given how much time Harvey had, and that he clearly failed to be alert and react to the situation in a reasonable time and manner, they probably won't get much push back if they want to claim 50/50 responsibility.
There is a chance that if pushed, they could successfully argue Harvey was more at fault because of his serious lack of appropriate response.
Regardless of the outcome, they need their heads knocking together to wake them up; and perhaps a driving safety course.
9:00 You can shout all you want, but it's not going alter the fact, you ran a red light.
I think we established from the full clip (there was a second one by the same driver that week) that the lights were malfunctioning and both had green. The second clip showed him driving down the road in the direction of the black car and two cars seemingly having a green to pull out from the same side road he was coming out of in this clip.
To me it looks like she was saying "I wasn't able to stop" but I could be wrong
She didn’t run a red light. They were both green.
The camera 100% had the green light and the lady ran a red.
But if the lights were malfunctioning, then who's to blame anyway though?
Pretty sure the lady had the giveway markers on the road, so during a malfunction she should've stopped (just like the red car in the camera stopped which proves the lady ran a red)
@@nekotranslates No. Just No.
Just because he had a green doesn't mean she had a red. The road has a three way light control. The red car is stopped as they do have a red but their light is for left turn only and they will have a red while the black car has green so traffic can turn right from that direction. The highway code says that just because you have a green doesn't mean you should go, it means proceed if safe and clear to do so. The cammer submitted a second clip that was on the same episode showing he had a green and cars from the side lane where he was coming out in this clip started to pull out, indicating both had green at the same time. In terms of fault, the council could well be sued for the costs for not maintaining the road but it might end up 50/50 with insurance as he did pull out in front of an oncoming car rather than proceeding with care.
5:39 - 'adds68' not heard of using brakes? wtf 🤨
Yup, completely avoidable. Makes you wonder if they were looking at their mobile phone instead of the road ahead ..... 🤔
@@kayfj4903 yeah what an entitled prick makes you wonder why he even bothers with a dashcam. Why does he start honking, not braking? Does he think the car will disappear?
EvEryONe KnOWs HorNs aRE moRE EFfecTiVE thAN BrAkeS.
Look closer an you'll see him steer to the right too 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Oh yes, that first clip is a classic. Run Forrest!
The Prometheus school of running - don't go sideways, keep running the way the dangerous thing is rolling towards you
Appreciate the comments with minute marks - by the time I finish the video and I'm scrolling the comments I forget which bellend is which.
Same here
Anyone that comments about a clip without timestamping it should automatically be awarded TOTW. There would be a lot of them so maybe that wouldn't work lmao.
@@TheIceMurder2 😛
I'd just like to timestamp 15:35 because that cyclist was superb humour in a video of accidents.
21:00 Gotta love his accuracy:
“What a nob”
“Which one?”
“The one in the white car” with all 3 being white🤣🤣
Nicely spotted
While the cam car straddles all of the lanes.
red00eye exactly my second thought as well😂
Thing is the guy in the white car wasn't to blame. The road markings at 20:58 show he's actually in the correct lane. The arrow marks show both left turn and straight ahead. The merge didn't work because the white van tried to overtake when he should have held back.
@@johnstephenson6231 Correct - this is the A24 roundabout. the white 'car' was actually in the correct lane, the white van is not. there's another exit further round the roundabout which is what the right lane is for.
19:20 Why is BenA using the left lane when he's going to the 3rd exit
A lot of people these days are using left hand lanes to turn right at roundabouts
@@ewancassidy545 It's painful how many drivers suddenly change lanes at the most ludicrous of times.
It’s amazing how many of these cammers see a roundabout and immediately think it becomes a racetrack and also I can’t believe the amount of cammers who just get off from a crash without seeing if the people are ok who are involved in the crash 🤬
I love how Duncan’s only reaction to seeing a car flip on its side is a subtle, “Jesus wept”. Had me in stitches 😂
OH yes, starting the year 2021 with a Bang!! Keep it up
Aha. See what you did there
Starting off 2021 with a bang
* insert terrorist attack bombing *
That’s what I think that’s going to happen in 2021 please do not take this comment personally and good year everybody
@@borisjohnson7553 Something you want to tell us Boris?
Tony I guess you're a Simpsons fan? 😉
14:04 Karma for chris..
Both overtaking when the double lines declare no overtaking.
Haste did for him
11:26 I thought the oh my godding was the driver, then realised it was the radio 😂
So many of these are examples of people who have never had an accident but have seen loads, finally meeting each other.
This video should have been called ‘worst delayed reactions of 2020’
5:40 i too sometimes forget cars can brake.. who knew!
Harvey g looking for an accident? Easily avoidable
Not as avoidable as adds68 who literally drove into the car as it went past him.
90 percent are avoidable. Cammers looking for clips. It's getting ridiculous.
@@TewkesburyBear So many easily avoidable crashes.
Totally agree - can't believe that neither of them could find their brake pedal. 🙄
@@TewkesburyBear completely right
There are 3 things I learn from watching these.
1, 80/20 its the person with the Dash Cam's fault
2, I have lost brain cells watching these
3, It makes me a better driver and now I know what to look out for in when I'm driving
Great work to start off the New Year! 👍😀 I remember these individual clips, but to see them brought together in one video is shocking - you just can't believe the lack of driving skills from some of these drivers who (allegedly) have licences! 😱
11:21 ah i told you i would beat you in a race in a car park driving the speed limit.... I WOOOOOON haha whoa oh shit!!!
14:00 was entirely avoidable if Chris stayed on his side of the road as the double-solid centreline indicate.
This twit got caught out by someone pulling the same dumb manoeuvre he was pulling 😂🤣😂
I love how he ran into someone who was doing exactly the same thing as him. Ha ha ha!
If only *all* dickhead drivers only had accidents with each other.
@@missg3188 Also that someone else only violated a single-dashed centreline. The someone else wins.
I know that junction in cottingham, see people doing this all the time, glad to see some karma, but the submits as if he was going n the right, hilarious.
@@TanzinulIslam neither win.theyre both absolute weapons that got what they deserve!!
First day of the New Year and the guy in the first clip is having to change his new Christmas underwear straight away when he gets home 🤣
Thank you for posting this, you've rounded off my day nicely. Have a Happy New Year.
14:00 Chris needs to be TRAINED what to do at level crossings.
To be fair....the one he crashed into was trying to do exactly the same thing as him so it was tit-for-tat lol
Agreed, both a couple of plonkers 😅
This is like Christmas all over again... a best of? Awesome!
Agreed!
love these best of video. great work UK Dash Cameras. keep it up
18:17 Trying to work out which car he actually did see.
Now that you say it I noticed it too. He would've hit the car on the otherside as well. Driving completely blind.
10:20 it’s called a ROUNDABOUT not a overabout
Agreed!
If RTG had actually gone ROUND the roundabout then the accident wouldn't have happened
@@Ych2007 Yep
Another one?! Legend!
Agreed!
Great team choice by the way pal 🙂 #LFC

Thanks for this, really believe these videos should be compulsory for new and drivers with bad no claims!
This is the best car crash compilation I have ever seen in my entire life
It is just so, wow, amazing
truly beautiful
I think RTG should have gone AROUND the roundabout
So many TOTW memories!!!
#nostalgia
I can't stop watching the opening one - it's brilliant!
No kidding, I wonder if that pedestrian ever found out this video exists!
The first clip is a good example of how life can be unpredictable and change in a split second. One moment your walking home from the shop, a second later there's a car rolling toward you.
plenty of cammers here seemingly without hazard perception, foresight or brakes
11:21 I would have to stopped for a laugh
Same, instant karma
Great compilation happy '21
So many Peugeot's and Vauxhall's being written off. This sparks joy.
Love the one who cuts the line of traffic on the opposite side of the road at the rail crossing only to shout at the Audi driver doing the exact same thing. 🤣🤣🤣
Couldn't make it up.
12:05...woman with pushchair and walking her dog which is off the lead in the middle of the road in fog....Darwin Award 2020 for sure 😂😂😂😂😂
Happy New Year from the other side of the world. What I have learnt from watchin this channel: When driving in the UK, literally steer clear of Audi's, white vans and mopeds with L plates.
The video I've been waiting for
00:10. That man with the bags for life. Imagine if he saw that car flipping towards him a second later 🙆🏾♂️
0:16 watch the two people in the upper right hand corner:
*Meh, I have seen better, I am hungry*
SO.MUCH.CONTENT!
Thanks again dashcam UK.
12:05
Dog was like "Huh?"
11:27 - The way Joe W basically causes that accident and then quietly slips away...
Please don't give way where you're not supposed to, it just confuses things.
Happened multiple times where I live, people just cannot grasp this at all.
great content, thanks.
Some seriously good stuff 👌
Adds68's "accident" was his fault and his fault alone, and he should be held accountable because he steered into the Mercedes to cause the accident
Came here to say the same thing, looks like the brake pedal wasn't used!
Considering the car coming out of the junction "should" have given way I'd say it was 50 50.
Ah Tom drives like the Mercedes driver lol
Adds68 appeared to steer into the path of the Mercedes and make sure the accident happened !
18:30 didn't know the teletubbies could drive.
Good start to the year. Triggered
U make the best youtube uk crash videos
I swear some of these people must think if they recite "I have priority" enough times the oncoming car will just magically disappear
7:36 Siscooter went into the wrong lane here. I remember double checking this when it was in the original video.
@Mike That's very true.
12:23 I use this roundabout quite a lot as its in the town center where I live. Almost every time I go on it at least 1 person gets in the wrong lane. Its a mess
Must’ve been some hard choices for this lot considering how many you had to choose from.
Happy New Year. 🎊
5:14 cracks me up every time
I've seen so much from Police drivers that suggests to me that they don't apply the Advanced part to their driving. :P
I had a claim against a paramedic who was overtaking on a hill with double white lines and knocked me off my motorcycle and when it come to a head they deemed his driving safe laughable really I understand you got an emergency to get to but doesnt mean you can drive like a twat.
@@stichupman They're better off getting to the emergency safely than taking stupid risks. Hope you're not suffering any long lasting effects from that though, sounds brutal.

Legend has it... that bloke thag left his shoppng is still running !!
That central reservation wire did an incredible job with that lorry. Theres some serious engineering there!
5:39 adds68 has a very fishy clip. You had plenty of time to slow and stop, and it also seems to me like you swerved in to the Mercedes as oppose to away from them. You turned right, in to the car when you should've turned left in to the junction they pulled out from. Your camera is now evidence of you forcing an accident. There is no reason for anyone to turn in to the car they are trying to avoid. You had plenty of room to go around the back or just stop. Insurance would love to see that footage I'm sure.
Yeah I thought they swerved into the Mercedes aswell
But the horn is more important than the brake, surely?!?!?
(I'm not adds68 but) I don't think it's that clear cut, things are closer than they show, he probably assumed the other person had simply overshot and would stop in which case swerving to the right away from the pavement and pedestrian was the right thing to-do. Maybe in perfect circumstances he could of avoided, but 0% his fault and 100% the fault of the car coming into traffic. Put in the same circumstance, would you rather have car crash and 0.001% of killing pedestrian, or swerve left as you suggest and have 1% chance of hitting pedestrian?
@@randgate This is true!
@@randgate I thought the same at first, then I watched it again a couple more times before commenting. Myself, I would've seen a Mercedes driver pulling out on me and would've just stopped there with room to spare. adds68 carried on for a second, then when the Mercedes was well out you can see adds68 turn slightly towards it. Towards the centre white lines and oncoming traffic. The Mercedes stops and at the very last second adds68 turns in to the Mercedes even more. Look where their car ended up with regards to the centre white lines. I understand that maybe adds68 just didn't think the Mercedes would pull out, but they did. We are taught to anticipate things like this on the hazard perception part of your driving test. I also understand that no one turns in to an object they do no want to hit. It is a fact that adds68 turned in to that Mercedes at the very last second, for no explicable reason. Anyone in their right mind would've turned to the left to try and go round the back.
Still amazes me how many people:-
1: Don't drive to the conditions of the road.
2: Check their mirrors.
3: Use their indicators.
4: Don't pay attention to what's going on ahead of them.
5: Ignore the rules of the road.
6: Clearly need to get back in the learner car with a driver instructor.
The amount of people who don't slow down or try to avoid an accident is mindblowing
That first one was awesome. Like running away from the Boulder in Indiana Jones!
I feel like many of these uploaders would fail a hazard perception test.
2 in 2 days👍 nice!
