2:22 Actually, the red car should have moved over to the left lane as they were passing the exit before theirs, not cut across from the outside lane (passing over the dotted white lines) into the path of the lorry at the last possible moment.
Yes lorry could have used outside lane, but it was probably taking the next exit & being heavy and slow, it is not easy to change lanes on roundabouts as knobbers quite often do not let them move across as they do not want to get stuck behind them.
I agree. The lorry was in the correct lane, and wasn't indicating to turn at the first exit. The lane isn't marked with a direction.
Spot on, if you also look at the long white lines, it does say in the highway code cross over them with caution, the lorry was doing nothing wrong, and people do change there mind quite often.
Lorries don't fit in car lanes. We maybe lost. The signs change from one sign to another. You don't know how our vehicle swings, so just stay away from us!
Such 'cutting exits' are possible, but it's your own responsibility to make sure that traffic which has priority isn't hindered. Red car was clearly wrong.
The inside lane is ussually quickest in Britain as people rarely use it, but every once in a while you end up next to someone and you have to go around. It happens. Win time 95% of the time, lose a tiny bit of time in the remaining 5%. Go around and do it again.
For me it was the red cars fault
3:46 - Please tell me you went back and left your details (along with those of that incompetent dishonest woman) on the Suzuki?
#12 Regardless of the admission of liability the driver only stopped because he was followed and only admitted liability after seeing the footage. That was a clear attempt to get away with it
& I'd still be having a chat with police about the fail to stop.
Personally i would just have reported it as a hit and run . Failure to stop means points , undue care , or dangerous driving . He had dash cam footage , so his insurance company would have had a clear case for a claim .
@@mickey1299 I've known someone in that situation. The police just gave them a warning.
Police would have it's an insurance issue & no-one was hurt, so no case for Hit & Run. It happened to me & driver didn't stop until his tyre blew out 3 miles later
@@tkpeters The lack of injury doesn't matter. It's a fail to stop which is an offence :
www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/section/170
@@JohnCarlyle Same. I've seen someone broadside a parked car and flee. Unless the Police catch the act, it's likely a punishment free crime.
Why does everyone think that the left lane at a roundabout is universal and you can bumble your way around and use any exit? Think where you're going, think about your lane and pay more attention to your driving!
Got to admire the BMW driver in clip #3 - drives into the side of a massive works van as he tries to turn left from the wrong lane, but still somehow feels justified in getting out of his carriage and arguing the toss with the other driver who was 100% in the right.
He is one of those idiots that thinks left lane is always for turning left only.
@@1977JohnBoy whilst not blatant you can see by his arm movements that he was blaming the van for going straight on in the left lane...
@@SynisterNation that was my interpretation of the body-language too.
@@SynisterNation , and he was wrong! Looking at 1:33 the marking is a left turn and a straight way. Meaning the entitled BMW was in the wrong lane to turn!
@@benjaminspencer6507 which is what we all have said, nobody said the BMW was in the right.....
2:24 I'd love to know which box of cereal the "commentator" got their driving licence from. In their mind, it's not the red car's fault for turning left from the right-hand lane, it's the lorry's for continuing on the roundabout in a lane which he could? 🤦♀What. A. Moron.
I was thinking the same thing 🤔
i know... red car has a habit of taking over taking lanes to new road and not left. this what happens when you assume that the vehicle on the left will exit...
@@jamesgordon75 "Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups." Anon.
Try looking at it on the map, Tore roundabout on the A9 towards Inverness. Lorry had already gone past one A-road exit so must have entered from A9 or even an earlier exit. Muir of Ord and Ullapool exits are clearly shown to need the right hand lane from the A9 approach.
Beat me to it.
All one has to do is look at the road markings.
Red car was at fault.
Should have held back if it wanted to exit or go round again instead of being presumptuous.
I love it when the laughter on the radio syncs perfectly with the guys insult
Videos like this as well as just being on the road in general just reinforce my belief that when and if driverless cars become the norm, there should be absolutely no mechanism in place to allow people to drive it. While not a majority, I would say between a quarter and a third of drivers have made the road too unsafe.
At 1:50, it's physically possible because BMW drivers are often obsessed with being in FRONT of lesser vehicles (ie. the rest of us), and believe that they should get out of their way. Here we have a case in point...
bmw in the wrong lane anyway
Sounds like the Audi drivers.
@@klashnacovak47 it's all of the "prestige" car drivers. They think they're better than everyone else. Had one reversing out of a drive, couldn't see as there was a parked car and still went. Karen decides it's my fault as she's illegally reversing out. Did offer to call the police to see if she'd like the points for Driving without due care and attention.
That last one would have gotten me too,I was watching out for the Range Rover on the left who clearly can’t drive and was all over shop, then side swiped from the other side by another idiot. Got my sympathy on that one, unavoidable.
2:06 Hmm, interesting he already has his phone in hand as he steps out of his massive ego
it's only an x2. it's barely bigger then a Nissan Quashqui
@@M3PH11 It's an X6, get yourself to Specsavers ;-)
X6's are bloody useless and ugly
At 5:07, I'd argue that the lorry was sitting alongside the car; not the other way round. In which case, lorry driver is open to a "Careless Driving" charge because he should have either completed the pass, or not attempted it. In the inside lane, car driver has the right to hold at whatever speed he wishes. Your assessment of fault, of course, is quite correct...
Yes, but it is a question of risk. Who is going to get hurt more, me or a big lorry? The car driver could have moved forward or hung back. Still 100% the lorry driver's fault, mind.
@@I_Don_t_want_a_handle I agree that there's the question of risk; my point was that lorry driver had no right to force that decision upon the car driver. You are meant to stay in left hand lane unless you are overtaking, so car driver is entitled to travel at whatever speed, and lorry driver must make sure he can pass safely or abort the manoeuvre. Lorry driver has created the risk for another motorist - careless driving.
@@mikethecabbie8476 Of course he did not have the right but what good is 'right' when you are in the morgue? Drive defensively, live longer.
@@I_Don_t_want_a_handle If we're all agreed that the car should've hung back or got forward then it's contradictory to say 100% of the fault lies on the lorry, more like 95%.
There are times when a lorry pulls out to pass a car and the car speeds up making it difficult / impossible for the lorry to complete the pass. If the lorry backs off and pulls back in, sometimes that car will slow down again. It can be a real nuisance for lorry drivers.
What I've done on 3 occasions when I saw someone drive off after hitting another car was write a brief note including their registration number and colour/make of car and leave it on the damaged car.
#4 Regardless of what the lorry was doing, Red car should have been paying attention, which they clearly were not. Also should be smoothly changing into exit lane, not turning practically 90 degrees off the roundabout across another lane.
The red car surely must have seen the danger he could have easily gone around the roundabout again. And Not try and over take The HGV,
5:58. Good stop by that lorry driver. I was expecting to see the turning car fly into the air!
So clip Number 3.All I have to say is "How do people look at those hideous X6's and actually buy them?Oh they're hideous"
5:30 got to be one of the weirdest road setups I've ever seen... I can imagine there's quite a lot of accidents there
Was just going to put something similar. The way the oncoming traffic lane has no 'break' fools you into thinking its a normal continuation of the road.
Even so...if unsure, employ caution. If you know the area you will know the junction. If not, look!
Yes, line painting in the UK is getting worse every year thanks to lack of funding from central government, but, like I say, if it's a new junction to you pay special attention. It's not hard.
I used to drive many miles, all diffrent areas of the UK and five other countries. Never had an at fault accident in 25 years 18k a year. I'm not saying drive slowly and nervously (that can be as bad as speeding)...just make driving your sole focus. Too many people in a wibbly wobbly world of their own while driving. Phones, make-up, smoking, eating, drinking etc etc.
Three people have driven into my cars while I have been stopped. One was looking at/tuning their radio, one was discussing what Subway to get with their passenger and one just wasn't looking - all their own admissions. Seriously. These people could kill someone yet they admitted those errors without care.
Drives me nuts.
There is a massive Give Way sign, in yellow to show accidents happen because fools don’t pay attention. If you drive without looking, then face the consequences
@@BDFProtector
A sign which is set up in the middle, clearly meaning the 'turn left' road has to yield to traffic from the right, which the road markings clearly show that going right as the Fiesta did is a continuation of the road.
@@thebrowns5337
The thing is council screwed that up so bad, most drivers will be 100% certain that if you exit left, the sign says yield to traffic from the right, while the road continues to the right and obviously has priority over exiting traffic like the van. It's only when you're on top of it that you can see the remains of what must've once been the triangle to set up a yield situation.
But even someone seeing that will probably conclude it was erased deliberately and they have priority, it's that far erased.
Don't argue this sort of stuff. We have enough crashes due to slow indecisive and insecure drivers already without you argueing people should crawl across any intersection they don't know.
Make better intersections or the council pays for the accidents, simple. The issue is bad government and bad road construction.
Clip ten - agree with the assessment, the missing give way lines are a definite contributing factor here - at least one if not both parties involved very possibly have legal grounds to sue the council!
Not even a little bit. There are signs clearly marked in High Vis yellow at the side, and a White triangle on the road, even if there was no actual dashed markings. A court would throw that out
Rubbish, the 3 give way signs, and the missing centreline along the route of the fiesta, and the lack of give way lines on any other entry to that junction are more than enough. A simpler without due care charge would be very difficult to find.
@@stevesmith7530 Give way signs are at the point where you have to give way. The car driver missed the sign. It was a very clear sign, unlike the road markings.
There was a dashed give way marking, but it's worn out and needs repainting.
@@andyalder7910 And 3 signs, and lack of give way markings anywhere else. It was pretty obvious who had to give way, and if in doubt, slow the ^%£$ down and be prepared to give way anyway. :)
A slam dunk without due care. Not even "sun in my eyes" as any kind of excuse
3:00 yes, yield if there‘s a risk! Good job reflecting that!
The amount of bad drivers on our roads is unreal
Ngl I've driven 10000 miles in 6months and not had any issues. Maybe it's because I live in the south west?
At 5:35, signage is fine; you're right about the Give Way lines, though.
The lines were painted correctly but yes they are very worn. Can't check on StreetView to see if they have been repainted as they haven't driven down Church Lane / Deanery Hill Braintree since 2015.
The cutting across the lane to exit the roundabout seems to be a common cause of collision. I think the confusion lies with the fact that not all roundabouts have the same lane set-up: most you enter the left to go left or straight on, ofc; but then you get those that the left lane is only for turning left - a lot of drivers seem to cut across from the right lane onto that one. If in doubt just keep going round, or just take the wrong turn and figure it out after.
Cutting across one lane to exit a roundabout is so common that it is included in the Highway Code along with a graphic of a green car doing exactly that!
When taking an exit to the right or going full circle, unless signs or markings indicate otherwise
signal right and approach in the right-hand lane keep to the right on the roundabout until you need to change lanes to exit the roundabout - in other words cut across lane 1 from lane 2 to exit.
@@andyalder7910 Yes, but weren't some of the drivers in this video actually cutting across one lane? What happens with me - in my slow-as-molasses 1.8 engine car - is that when I turn right at a roundabout, I'll go in the right-hand lane, circle round to my exit, then when I want to exit (by cutting across back into the left lane) another car will have sped up on my inside. Presumably they were going on and entered the roundabout while I was circling round.
Exactly, especially when in the middle of a city you really only lose a few minutes in taking a wrong turn and having to reorientate yourself. It's no big deal, but a lot of people are averse to any hold ups in their journey that they take silly risks or take the attitude that because something *shouldn't* be crossing their path when they exit, they don't have to check!
@@goodyeoman4534
You make a good point and I've always thought the same thing!
There doesn't seem to be any standardised roundabout setups and in some cases the roundabouts and signage are poor and in some rarer instances don't quite tally.
@@goodyeoman4534 I'd call that undertaking like a boy racer rather than cutting lanes, unacceptable but the only way to stop it is to make all roundabouts spiral ones and we don't have enough road space for that.
I drive up and down the country every week and the amount of bad drivers I see year on year is shocking. Dash cams ought to become mandatory in road vehicles
I think the round about collision featuring the BMW is easily solved.
The driver was distracted by a strange flashing light and wierd clicking noise coming from somewhere inside the dashboard.
He must have paid for the optional indicator package.
Your post could've been shortered to "BMW driver, distracted" 😉
@@nvelsen1975 Nah, I save the shorter posts for the Audi clips, they seem to be the ones with a shorter attention span 😂
Truck driver here, want to weigh in on the red car in the roundabout issue. Lorry drivers will often use the left most lane or a lane left of what is marked for the route since we are #1 Slow and by staying left we allow traffic to flow through the inside of the roundabout.
#2 The tighter we turn the more space we take up. On the inside lanes of roundabouts we often occupy 2 lanes because of the vehicle size.
This is specifically permitted by the highway code. We are required by it to be aware and give space and respect to other more vulnerable vehicles but a lot of drivers think this means we must bend to their will. In reality we should all be aware of the vehicles around us and try to think about and consider how different vehicles maneuver.
Number5
I have seen so many clips of cars coming out junctions to early while the cammer doesn’t slow down or accelerates into problem because they have the right of way.
Next to a house buying a motor is the most expensive purchase most people will ever make. And I always wonder why people would risk something so expensive against some numpty driver just prove a point.
90% of roads in this country are roundabouts but the majority of drivers are still puzzled every time they reach one. Honestly, big roundabouts are the a scariest place to be driving though. Complete shambles.
I say this and I have been driving for 24 years.
I don't know what it is but people have become very complacent about driving recently. I have nearly been run over twice this month. I don't know who needs to read this but everyone just take a few extra milliseconds just think about what you're doing. Stay safe out there people.
@@daviddou1408 I always do. A driver doing an emergency stop when I'm crossing a pelican crossing isn't something I really have to think about. Now you might be one of these drivers I've been talking about where you think pedestrians should make way for you perhaps you are an Audi driver either way it is the drivers responcibilitie to anticipate changes in driving conditions and drive appropriately that means when they see a red on a pelican crossing not to try to plow through it while pedestrians are crossing. Just a thought. Be safe out there mate.
1:40 most vigilant BMW crossover driver
clip 5 - cammer should have used the brake pedal, not the horn button! - clip12, the Range Rover wanted two lanes as well.
Since Range Rover was in a compulsory left you could say they wanted three lanes.
#5 I live literally down the road from where that car pulled out from and I can assure you many, many drivers have had accidents in this same spot because of impatience instead of just waiting. The exact same thing here happens, it's like people forget how to drive. Impatience!
#5 yup, it's better to yield than have to deal with insurance companies
Especially when your the one to blame
1:40 Fugly Beamer, prat plate, never a good combo.
#10 despite the poorly marked lines on the road, there is a give way sign directly to the left. Fiesta was clearly in the wrong.
2:22 is a good example of why you shouldn't over take on a roundabout. The HGV was in the wrong lane sure, but you need to be pretty confident the thing next to you is turning left if you're expecting this to be a duel lane turns left scenario. Always hang back - seconds can save hours.
I'm not sure the HGV was in the wrong lane, if it had to turn off the lane markers would indicate so but the lane carries on. Red car has had to cross over the lane marker into the HGVs lane so its at fault. But yeh over taking on a rounabout is just asking for trouble.
The two types of drivers to avoid at all possible times: Parcel Delivery & Highway Maintenance. Most of these compilations have at least one Highways vehicle driving like their blind.
Going to give that BMW driver a pat on the back for knowing they have & using the indicators even though they were completely at fault in the wrong lane .
Great video, just a tip where you place the location and number I'd move it up a bit due to CZcams's media controls blocking them on PC. Shoving them up 10% will not have an impact on dashcam footage but will allow us to see the info.
#5` if you see a car halfway out in the middle of the lane you’re in up ahead, you should also slow down… mostly their fault but also yours for reacting poorly.
5:00 the car want sitting alongside the lorry the lorry was overtaking the car as you can see from the earlier part of the clip. Stop victim blaming.
Don't even know what the lorry is doing in that lane on a busy motorway
HGV was alongside car for a long time, self preservation says ease up or speed up (not possible there) so you're not alongside it.
@@andyalder7910 why is the lorry trying and failing to overtake in the first place though?
@@callumcherry4008 No idea, I just avoid being next to one for extended periods.
5:29 - Why would the council do anything about that junction? Repainting the give-way lines I would agree with if the wasn’t a huge give way sign on the left hand side…
2:24 lorry was in the correct lane for staying on the roundabout in the left hand lane and had no obligation to exit the roundabout. Red car shouldn't have changed lane at all.
Seeing an area you know in these is so exciting
Which one was it for you? Mine was the one on the roundabout in Hook, with the white van. It's ten minutes from my home.
12 had no intention of stopping until you followed imo
They were absolutely legging it
They stopped at the first safe/legal place to do so
@@Kyrelel ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, yeah right !!!1
@@Kyrelel hahahahaha drove down road with no lines, where it is legal to stop and park. Ends up stopping on a double yellow.
@@Kyrelel No they didn't, they stopped on a double yellow when they did eventually stop... You get prosecuted for 'leaving the scene', they could have just pulled over on the left of the nice straight bit of 30 limit dual carriageway where it happened.
That was definitely failing to stop.
These videos scare me more than ones from other countries, as there is no water separating me from these prats.
It's like driving around my town every single day.
At 2:20 or thereabouts, the red car cuts across in front of the HGV - the HGV being much longer and therefore less manouevrable than a car not only has the legal right to take the outside lane but is encouraged to do so, ditto for buses/coaches so next time you're on a roundabout, check to your left/behind for HGVs/buses/coaches as they are allowed this dispensation due to their size.
As for the failure of the red car driver to observe something four times the size of their vehicle, think they need their eyes tested!
It’s amazing how people can’t predict and see what’s happening around them and react properly, most of these are unavoidable if at least one of the two cats is paying attention and reacts properly.
5:14 the cammer witnessed an accident, collected evidence, didn't stop... that's a dick move.
#12...of course she was trying to drive-off....no two ways about it...
0:55 - this is why my dad will never own an expensive or luxury car. It doesnt matter how well *YOU* look after it, some twat will always do this to you and most of the time there is no way of finding out who did it or clawing back any sort of compensation to fix the damage.
2:18 yeah the lorry is doing the wrong thing but any switched on driver could see that coming, you have to expect these things.
Amazing how many of these cammers get to their horn, much quicker than their brakes.
#12 I think the driver was trying to get away with it. What if the camers vehicle couldn’t be driven due to the damage, or lost sight of the Astra what then.
4:56 regardless who's at fault the massive oversteering from the car driver made it look worst and almost caused them to crash.
Class 1 and Class 2 HGVs always keep to the left when going around roundabouts. You would fail your driving test if you didn't!
A very good Friday afternoon to you all from Wellington Somerset
BMW in wrong lane because it was shorter than the correct lane for turning left, he possibly got away with the same trick umpteen times before and finally he got caught out, love to see him explain this to the insurance company, BTW if you see a personalized plate on a BMW or Audi beware they have more money than sense.
Whoever writes the little remarks is a certified Master of the Bleedin’ Obvious.
They have to be told nowdays common sense.
Number 4. If you miss your turning for the road you want would you go around the roundabout to get back to your need road or take a completely different road taking you in totally wrong direction. I know what i would do.
The BMW driver had his indicator on for a whole 1 second. That gives him the right of way. Ask any German car driver and they will all tell you this.
Remember that you have to drive carefully and observe the Highway Code and be polite to none car drivers,and try not to forget that life and the planet is more important than you job and bills and wife and kids
If any evidence were needed… driving standards have dropped considerably in the last fifty years…
Astra driver 100% was looking for a way to escape. What is it with people unable to admit fault?
#4 the road markings clearly show the right hand lane going round the roundabout, and the left lane as a split stream which can continue round the roundabout or leave.
So why should the lorry have left the roundabout? The lane it was in did not *just* leave the roundabout.
If the red car wanted to leave the roundabout it should have got into the left land earlier, before its exit, and not attempted to cut across the left lane from the right lane to exit.
1:40 definitely BMW fault
Isn't it scary that the ones who hit and run know that there's a witness and still do it! They are so stupid and dangerous these idiots, how can you not see a huge van, or a car? What chance would a child have against these fools?!
They walk amongst us piss poor drivers with dashcams and their victims 😢
Number 10 - the yellow panel on the give way sign is supposed to help it stand out more but counter intuitively it makes it harder to recognise the inverted triangle. The only thing they can do with the signage is put up an advanced warning sign further down the road, which they have done, it's on the right at the start of the footage. Whilst this is nit the normal location for signs, it is there to allow approaching drivers to see the sign.
As for the signage on the road, this should be the last thing the driver is looking at. Their eyes should be up and looking at the road ahead and any traffic they will come into conflict with. Yes it's a bit faded but not too badly, I've seen worse.
#1 it's a white van. Just because the mirror body is there, doesn't mean that the lenses are still there. If the lenses remain, possibly shattered in a million pieces......
0.15 van clearly shouldn't be parked there at all. How's that old lady supposed to navigate a van taking up half her space?
5:08 a fine example of how ESP works
I knocked a car when I was reversing in a parking space.
Left a note and a contact number.
Solve the situation without calling the insurance for 60 pounds.
That last clip. Driver claiming to look for a safe place to stop. Never heard so much bullshit in my life. He would have definitely carried on driving if cammer hadn’t have chased.
#3 I'm pretty sure that the arrows on the road mean that the BMW driver should have continued straight, and that only the left lane is for turning left?
Exactly that, the BMW was in the wrong lane. Must have been a new BMW driver though as he actually indicated...
Still shouldn't have done it though
I'm so shocked by the daily battering of parked cars by barley skilled motorists
I really don't understand peoples confusion about roundabouts.. if you are on the inside lane, you cannot take the exit. if you can't, go around !Not difficult is it?
Two rules of the road Highway Code and Councils making their own rules up influencing bad driving thats carried on elsewhere.
I'm not sure number 10 is the fiestas fault. I think the road is misleading but if you look at the road markings, it appears, at least to me, that the road continues around the bend and the van is actually making a maneuver to enter a new road
@@daviddou1408
Sign clearly applies to the earlier left exit, for which yielding makes sense. The sign is in the middle, so that will stick in court.
Road markings clearly show the Fiesta's path is the continuation of the road, so lacking other signage (I don't see a yield line and the triangle is near non-existant) Fiesta has right of way.
The main outcome is the council needs to pay for whoever is held liable though, whether the insurance argues the faded/old/former situation of the Fiesta needing to yield, or the visible situation of the van needing to yield counts.
....And whoever designed and maintains that intersection needs to be tossed in the nearest canal.
Time to send back to driving classes some of the drivers involved in accidents ,some are idiots & bullies for sure , but most just cannot drive...!!!!
BMW X6 had an engine problem that was going to cost thousands to fix, not anymore.
But the truck in number 9 was awair they had hit some one.
Number 12 was definitely a failure to stop.
Nothing wrong with where that lorry was on the roundabout. You can clearly see the lane carrying on round rather than it being a dedicated lane going off. Left is best for a lorry where possible - saves it having to try and cross over from the right to exit a roundabout. Much safer for everyone for it to be in the left lane (unless, of course, they're planning to go all the way round the roundabout). For all we know, the lorry could have just entered the roundabout and was going straight over it - this is possible because there are clearly more than 4 exits on this roundabout so the second exit isn't necessarily straight on. Even if he was going right, many roundabouts have signage telling you to use both lanes to go right. I drive over roundabouts like that all the time. Also, regardless of what the lorry was doing, the red car just forced his way without checking first to see if the lorry was indicating off. As he wasn't, he should've let the lorry pass before attempting to exit, even if he was in the wrong lane. He can't argue with a vehicle that size 😆. That's on the red car driver, not the lorry driver. (Also, that other car in the other truck's blindspot is the car's fault for hanging around where the lorry driver is unable to see them. However, shame on that lorry driver for not stopping. Very unprofessional. I would've at least stopped to have given the car driver a bollocking 😆.)
1:35 bmw is in complete wrong lane
5:33 - those are some terrible road markings, theres no double white lines right? Had to rewind a couple of times to figure out where the give way point was.
Wtf is it…. People lack lane discipline these days! I see it a lot when I’m driving.
It's poor driving standards but mainly poor road design. UK roundabouts are hot garbage, no guidance at all, just double lanes, double exits and everybody figure it out.
It's been over a decade that the turbo roundabout solved this.
the astra looked full of parcels they might not have had business insurance
2.30 red car in wrong lane to exit left not the trucks fault. And the last one looks like the astra driver is a courier delivering parcels so perhaps they didnt have business insurance
Lorry was in the wrong. Was about to pass its 3rd exit, so shouldve been in the inside lane not the outside lane
5:30 how big did you want the yellow bordered give way sign?
At 2'22", there's no way the lorry is at fault. Firstly the car is in the wrong lane and secondly if the lorry was only going half way round the roundabout (ie going straight ahead) it's in the correct lane.
And you're (Stormshot) hoping to help with good advice?
I just hop the Saab in clip 11 escaped. That particular model is very rare and parts impossible to source. Suggest driver surrenders the car and their licence….
Assuming this incident was within the last year, I can confirm that its very very unlikely that the Saab was hit. I would have seen the damage on that wagon in our yard, or atleast heard there was an incident.
I suspect that was our 63 reg 4 wheeler, my old wagon.
With a little more anticipation and courtesy most of these incidents could have been avoided
5:30 Hard disagree. There is no 'give way line' there. Not one that you can see without a microscope anyway, which is too late to notice or could be old deliberately erased markings. And lacking signage / markings, van was in the wrong.
Do think the van driver should hold the council liable for missing and incorrect signage though, both as my opinion and legally speaking. If it goes wrong insurance-wise, Fiesta driver can probably do the same.
DID LN02 YJB leave the scene of a collision?
No reason for the lorry to be in the left lane, he could have been in the right lane to turn right. Have none of the people commenting driven on a duel carriageway before? The red car going from lane 2 to lane 2 on the duel carriageway is correct.
#9 - car was in the inside lane, lorry was in the overtaking lane and decided to pull in. I don’t see what car was supposed to do, as the lorry pulled alongside him, it’s not as if the car undertook the lorry. 🤷♂️
Drop back so they're not in the blind spot of the lorry.
@@pmberry Or the lorry can drop back at 56mph, one of the slowest users of the road shouldn't be in that lane for long
100% lorries fault, car did nothing wrong.
@@pmberry you bought your license didn't you?
@@pmberry drop back?!? It’s completely the responsibility of the lorry driver to ensure the move is safe. They would have clearly seen the car when catching and passing it, it’s the lorry drivers responsibility to make sure it’s safe to move back across and not just assume it’s ok. If they couldn’t see the car in their mirrors they should have known they hadn’t passed it fully and it wasn’t safe to pull across. Driving off without stopping is another sign of the drivers unawareness of the crash he’s just had. Too many apologists for poor driving from these so called ‘professionals’, dash cams have really exposed the lie it’s always the car drivers fault and HGV drivers lack of awareness on our roads.
I love seeing BMWs and audis in crashes
2:05. There's your answer: on or using his phone
3:00 - nice to see a bit of logic. Though it is called defensive driving and is a central tenet of the Highway code. People do dumb things. don't make the situation worse.
Even if the lorry was in the wrong lane, which it wasn't, the red car shouldn't have driven into it.
2.17, the lorry is in the right, it is a continuous lane.
