      I'd also question the loading of that truck - while I'm no expert, I have carried wood and scaffold poles about, so I understand their relative weights, and think that putting that much wood up so high, with relatively little mass below it is asking for trouble if the driver goes into a roundabout a bit too fast, or makes a sharp turn (quite likely, given their appalling driving behaviour).

    5:00 That's ALLTASK scaffolding, insulation, asbestos management, and environmental services specialist of North Luton Industrial Estate, Sedgwick Rd, Luton LU4 9DT. Not that it really matters who they are because they all seem to go to the same road safety training school. I've never come across a scaffold lorry driver who has any consideration for other road users. They drive their lorries like they stole them and when they do park up they seek out the most awkward of places to park using their wild card of "I got work to do mate". Driveways, crossings, yellow lines are, apparently, put there specifically for them and DPS to park.

When he went back up the road he ‘found himself’ behind the car again, has the conversation then does a U turn to go back the other way. Clearly pursued the driver for an argument.

      There is a tendency for firms like this or Local Authorities to get someone through a test so they can drive an HGV. Because of this they can lack discipline or skills that regular HGV drivers have . I experienced exactly the same thing on Local Authorities with tractor drivers, many having never driven a tractor before but "pushed" into the role. It was so refreshing to find a LA tractor operator and not just a mere "driver".

    2nd clip, unfortunately becoming very common.
    HGV/LGV drivers standards seem to have been dropping, and now are noticeably poor.
    I was overtaking on a dual carriageway yesterday, an LGV class 1 vehicle, and was about halfway alongside, when the vehicle indicated to move out into my lane, and started squeezing me in my lane. I carried on and the driver put his hand out the window in a gesture as if to say 'what do you think your doing let me pull out'.
    He obviously expected me to slam my brakes on, and drop behind just so that he could pull out in front of me and crawl past another LGV.
    Notice to LGV drivers, if I am allowing you to pull in front of me I'll flash my lights, but until then do not think you own the fking road and can bully smaller vehicles out of the way.
    Suffice to say I carried on, and another 10+ vehicles following me were not forced to brake just because of one dipshit LGV driver.

    • @FrancisBerryman

      Following Brexit a lot of European HGV drivers said no to driving Europe to UK routes, and Vice Versa with UK drivers. This led to a shortage of HGV drivers, a huge recruitment push with ridiculous salaries. Standards dropped as a result of companies being desperate to fill the gaps, and folk looking for big bucks. This sadly, is the result.

    • @tkettle8008
      @tkettle8008 Před 9 měsíci

      The problem is more to do with the layout of the junction. I live near that stretch and the common practice is for people to stay in the right lane to go straight on and the left lane for the turn. Its the same in the opposite direction, as you approach the lanes split and the RH lane gives you the straight line to the road, the LH lane is designed more like a merge so most people tend to use RH to go on and LH for slow vehicles or turn off.

      To be fair, if you're lane is coming to an end it's up to you to merge in a safe manner rather than forcing your way in if someone doesn't want to let you in.

    No 6 . Few people realise that , apart from the much greater weights and stresses involved , due to the greater costs , many trucks run on retreaded tyres , or tyres with tread patterns re-cut further into the rubber ; hence it is quite commonplace to see treads which have been shed from the carcasses of truck tyres littering the roadside .
    Also , on trucks , tyres can be secured by metal bands , which can sometimes come loose , causing sudden deflation .
    Blow outs can , therefore , for numerous reasons , be an issue with larger vehicles , where the three loading is so much greater than on a private car .
    My father was a haulage contractor , so I am well aware of these things .

    Good response from the Beetle driver at 6:51 although using the opposite carriageway wasn't great and could have caused a head-on that they'd be liable for.
    I would have used the road the other car was turning into or used the side road that they chose to drive past.
    I had somewhat similar incident, but it was approaching a T-junction. I could have used the left lane but I couldn't be sure I wouldn't hit someone using and I didn't have time to properly check. Plus I would have to navigate a sharp bend where I risk understeering into the island and there was no way I was doing anything where I'd be left liable while the other driver drove off so I used the opposite lane because any traffic that might use it is waiting at traffic lights and it would give me the width of 5-6 lanes to slow down. Thankfully I'd scrubbed off enough speed in a failed attempt to use the oncoming lane (I locked my wheels and had to come off the brakes and straighten up).

    • @saginata
      @saginata Před 9 měsíci +1

      You never know with insurance companies, but they shouldn't be held liable in case of a head-on. The bar for negligence is very low when someone else's bad driving puts you in a situation where you have to make a split-second decision like this. It should all be on the driver that caused the whole situation.

    @derekheeps1244 Před 9 měsíci

    no 3 Actually , that is the folly of using disc brakes for a parking brake .
    As metal heats up , it expands , and conversely when it cools down it contracts again . In use , brake discs which are also used as the service brake on a vehicle get hot , often VERY hot , and they can expand significantly . If a mechanical parking brake mechanism clamps the brake pads onto a disc brake , as is often the case in inferior cars , then as the disc cools down over time , it shrinks and the grip of the pads is reduced , leading to exactly this kind of incident .
    This is why better designed cars , such as Mercedes-Benz , Volvo or BMW , use discs for the service brake and separate drums for the parking brake ; because in drum brakes the shoes are inside the drum , then as they cool down the grip actually tightens .
    If is not at all unusual for disc based parking brakes to let go in this manner , and this is why , if parking on any kind of gradient , as in this instance , one should always , as well as relying on the parking brake , one should also engage a parking gear , namely whichever low gear would cause the vehicle to move uphill , since due to compression an engine will not normally run backwards . All if parking at the kerbside , it is prudent to turn the front wheels in whichever direction would cause them to chock against the kerb . If the vehicle is automatic , this is achieved by placing the transmission in park , which causes a pawl to be engaged in a toothed gear , thus locking the transmission and preventing roll away . Also if one is fortunate enough to own a SAAB , the vehicle must be placed in reverse before the ignition key can be removed .
    In this instance , the driver was foolhardy enough to rely only on a parking brake which acted on disc brakes , also knowing that many Volkswagens have a tendency for rear callipers to seize up over time and become ineffective , thus being a common MOT failure point , and even worse when the parking brake is electrically actuated , thus the driver has no physical feedback as to how securely the brake has been applied ( no 'feel' of tension in a cable either through a handle or foot pedal ) ; then incidents such as this are all too common . This is in part due to a failure on the part of driving instructors to teach students about use of a parking gear as well as the parking brake or turning wheels to engage with a kerb .
    In some instances , particularly extreme low temperatures , it can actually be advised not to use a parking brake since brakes can freeze on , and rely instead on placing the car in gear and chocking the wheels against a kerb .

    #13 Rule H2 applies to drivers, motorcyclists horse-drawn vehicles, horse riders and cyclists. It reads:

    • @ianmason.
      @ianmason. Před 9 měsíci

      "should" not "MUST". In this case it's less dangerous for an LGV that requires two lanes to take that tight left to continue on, and inconvenience one oblivious pedestrian rather than inconvenience every driver who is trying to negotiate the junction. All it would take for disaster to happen is for one car to see the LGV stopped in the junction and try to nip up their left side - resulting in either crushed car, or crushed pedestrian as they appeared from behind the LGV.

In other words , overtaking traffic has priority , and blocking an overtaking vehicle can be interpreted as dangerous driving .

That almost happened to me and my partner. Our lane had been closed off further up. So my partner had to merge into the other lane. The guy that tried to stop us from merging almost, caused us to collide into the concrete barrier that was blocking our lane.
