"When you give way to oncoming traffic but the van behind doesn't..." you mean when you pull in, and then back out without mirror checks and indicating?
Yeh cammer was more focussed on the phone call than surroundings. I have a small amount of sympathy, but it was his fault and I'm sure insurance will see it that way as well.
I always indicate right if I pull in for oncoming traffic so everyone knows... they're not confirmation-of-what-you're-doing - they're signalling-your-intention. Also, driving just isn't a suitable divided-attention activity.
And keep concentrating by NOT being on the phone.
He was distracted by conversation on the phone. Hand's free or not his attention was distracted.
Saved me saying it.
"Ahh, I've just had an accident", what he should really say is "Ahh, I've just caused an accident"
He may have pooped himself in which case he just had an accident.

@eoftruth9797 love to see you explain how a person is any less likely to use their phone if they have a different device that frees up the phone's use from navigation 😂or how you explain how talking on a hands free call is any different to talking to a passenger, or are you suggesting talking at all in your car should now be banned too?
@4165Using a hands-free phone does not significantly reduce the risk compared with holding a phone; various pieces of research indicate tat you are 400% more likely to crash compared with not using a phone. It has been argued that talking on a phone is no different to talking to a passenger. However, research has found drivers talking to passengers are less at risk than drivers on phones; it is theorised by researchers that conversations with passengers are modulated because both the driver and passengers can see what is happening on the road [5].
If you can identify the cause, was it truly an "accident?" Describe to me a traffic incident and I'll tell you who could have avoided it and how, and why it doesn't qualify for that implication of "accidental." Inattentiveness and impatience are the biggest two, but there's also "the city should have cleared the streets better" and such like. It's almost never an actual accident.
#2 - The cammer obviously didn't check his mirror before moving out again. His phonecall was probably a distraction.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the beautiful morris 1800 in clip number 5 casually pulling up the traffic lights on the left?! Beautiful condition, looks well taken care of and loved 🥰
A very clever design and engineered solution those cars.
Must admit I missed it the first time of viewing. And yes, beautiful car.
Used to have one, poorly made rubbish.
@@paulthomson2375yeah, lots of people with rose tinted spectacles.
I was thinking the exact same thing...and am now about to search for a few YT videos on the marque.
0:45 100% you are in the wrong, no insurance company will side with you
0:44 - It's a shitty situation, but had you correctly used your mirrors before pulling away from a yielding position then this wouldn't happen. I would not be surprised if any insurance claim found you at fault for that.
and the dashcam shows you were on your phone at the time as well
He clearly wasn't fully focused on his driving. The van driver is a complete **** too, ofc. I wonder who was found liable.
I'd bet that one goes 50/50.
I would also be amazed if that call was not a major distraction Charles. Bad driving by the van driver terrible driving by Charles.
And he should not have been using his phone....... 6 Points Mate.
0:45 there's a thing called mirrors and an indicator lol
"Unfortunately, studies found that talking on the phone, even while using Bluetooth, could still distract a driver enough to result in a collision."

And even if there weren't, there are things called eyes.
😂,, white Ford trying to be sneaky and cut the queue,, denied 😂😂
That one did make me chuckle 😂
@@neilsimmons5080 I liked the denied voice over 🤣
#2. When you're on the phone and don't check your mirrors, but then blame the other guy anyway. Just because it's hands free doesn't mean you're not distracted.
0:55
"AAH Ive just had an accident"
Ironically the van was from a company called AAH
Why is that ironic?
Lukasz is always on the phone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
sometimes he listen to audiobooks :D
Legend has it, the car in #6 still waits today ... 😆 Like a rich, fattening dessert, that was SO satisfying.
is that a Morris 1800 at 2:12? Looks in lovely condition
Yep, sure was a Landcrab.
I think it is.
I wonder when this was filmed - its MOT expired in 2015!
@@waltersobchak1719 It'll be MOT exempt, I expect.
@@mikethecabbie8476 Very good point👍. I cunningly ignored its age😂😂😂
3:37 #7 I think we should cut the blue light services some slack. None of us know what sort of shout they are attending and the fact that they have no blues and two's flashing does not mean that they are less less important than when they are.
They could be receiving a call right at that moment. And although the manoeuvre seems a bit sudden, they didn't seem to bother anyone around them.
Exactly. Some folk make such a fuss over nowt.@@funlovingvoyeur
#5 To be fair those lights look badly positioned and I'd guess the rear set with the filter right is probably not in the best position to be seen by the lead car.
And they are really unusual.
#3, as the Mini was indicating his intention I'd have moved over a lane. No obligation I know but it's courtesy if nothing else.
But it is Lukasz…he apparently _owns_ the road he drives on 🤷🏻♂️
Just to bear in mind... that part of the A40 at Pencraig, just by Ross on Wye is a favourite haunt of the Hitler Youth photographic society... always best to stick to the 50mph limit. I always giggle when cresting that spot and people are overtaking me at over 50mph, with a scamera van parked in the lay-by...
Oh, with that kind of common sense, you'll upset the "because I can" crowd.
@@billyskoda6839 Lol. The traffic NKVD
If you can't do your manoever safely, don't do it.
Nobody going to comment on the Land Crab in no5.
"voted European Car of the Year for 1965" - surely our best days are so far behind us they must be nearly back again?
#5 Those lights confused me as well!
Range rover driver in a rush to marry their cousin.
Sister
Pet dog
Had to rush before the pos Range Rover broke down😅
Number 2 was 100% the cammers fault... do not move without checking your mirrors and even though it is hands free, having a conversation on the phone while driving causes distraction
Edit: watched it again and the guy doesn't once use an indicator then starts giving the van driver agro... is the van driver a mind reader.
0:51 The van felt that impact..... AAHHHHH!
Poor Ford Fiesta fought he was going jump the queue, what a bellhead 🤣🤣
The traffic wasn't even stationary! At most he was going to get what, two or three cars ahead on a good day?
Second clip, why would you pull out without a mirror check? Distracted on the phone maybe?
bUt iT wAs tEh hanDz FrEe!!!!
Mirrors? The tow truck driver woudn't have seen the cam-car in his mirrors
Why did the cam-car move to the left lane when there was a truck about to pull out? Like when there's a slip road merging onto the road you're on, if you're already in a right hand lane (2 or 3), why move over to the left lane (lane 1)?
2nd clip m8
@@dontaskme7004 What? 0:40 - second clip? you're talking about the first?
Yeah at 00:40 is the 2nd clip, the first clip is the small truck pulling out of side road
Dig the Landcrab at 2:10...!
#12 reminds me of the line, "For Gawd's sake, get me to the church on time"!
0:50 pulling in to let the guy through was fine, admirable even, but you needed to check your mirrors before pulling out. What stopped you? Were you on the phone?
I WAS ON MY HANDS FREE PHONE! THAT'S PERFECTLY LEGAL! MY HANDS WERE FREE!
The question wasn't about your hands, the question was about your ATTENTION.
So if he was talking to a passenger you'd have the same response? Should we all just drive in silence now? 🤣
@@mattia4165 If a passenger is distracting you then you shouldn't drive with them. But it is the case a phone call is more distracting. If the other person cannot see you it was found to increase the accident rate by 3x. Passengers in cars adjust their conversation to the conditions, and drivers temper their responses knowing the passenger is 'in the same boat' as it were. And conversation tend to be slower (fewer words and concepts per minute). But in a BT phonecall there is a denser information transfer, a desire to "keep the ball rolling" and it becomes a dominant cognitive task rather than a secondary one. This is what the studies have found, to be they are plausible.
#3 - maybe seeing the car signalling to pull out - even before it does so (and which was clearly a very bad bit of driving) - you could proactively move to lane 2 as a courtesy and to reduce risk? Footage suggests it was totally free.
This is why even hands free is such a bad idea.
#12 Bradfordistan - where traffic laws are merely a suggestion and every expensive car is rented or stolen. 😬
Yup that's my home town too, where lights aren't a rule but just a suggestion
*a great relaxing video, have a nice day everyone*
#2. I have reported multiple AAH drivers for the bad driving, bad behaviour and often waving using offensive hand signals. But back to the clip. The van driver was a Pratt for not anticipating and his speed. But the camer also for not using their mirrors before and after pulling over and moving back out.
#5. The driver needs to go to SpecSavers or retake their test as they are a danger.
#5 The driver was likely positioned in a way so that they could only see the red light which is inbetween the two right turn lights. They probably got confused seeing it and so stopped. Poorly placed traffic lights, shouldnt have lights for the left lane on the right hand side.
@@electricxplorer sorry no excuse
2:08 Yeh that's just a complete mess, isn't it? Council need to sort that out asap.
Yeah, have not seen anything like that around and I probably would’ve had to think twice about that junction
@@darzero Probably the 'job spec' didn't mention removing the old set of lights. And nobody thought to even question it- it's only council work, after all.
I need to remove the first traffic light as it's confusing , i have never seen that type of configuration before
Stopping at the green was unfortunate but then he went through the red before the left and straight arrows were green. If he hadn't jumped that light he would have seen the arrows and recognised his mistake.
Not just removing the front one, post on island opposite would take one too. Clear case of a council worker/contractor putting a new one in place but the seeing the old limits the view doesn't take it out as it's not his job or no job sheet to do it.
#6 LOVE IT!!👍. It’s the little things like that, that can bring such joy to your day!😂😂
#5 at 2:12. Wow! A 1973 Morris 1800. My father had one of these - same colour too when I was a teenager.
2:35 A Morris 1800??
That car driver didn't even check is white mirror and that fan decided to come through he obviously thought he was parking up that's why you should always check your mirror just in case obviously he didn't
You've got some good ones there! Range Rovers have a reputation to maintain, as do BMWs.
I reported one last week for jumping a red and the coppers sent me an email to confirm they're having to go on a driver's course. Haha, nob heads.
#2 looked like he went to give way saw the van coming and thought not a chance then tried to get back out in front, not realising the distance and speed
#5 I thought those lights were really confusing, why have 3 of them all clumped together? I’d have been cautious too if I didn’t know the junction.
Yeah, the driver should have been aware of the initial right only arrow but it's a stupidly confusing set up
Was looking for this comment, those lights are ridiculous, I don’t blame the driver in front of the cammer at all.
Terrible design. I'd be ashamed if I'd designed them like that.
It didn't matter where is it junction the traffic all the same has filter arrow or initial turn right arrow all the same where i living in have it all the time...easy clearly see the car in front of vw moving off so can see arrow turm right at traffic light
And distracted by that lovely 1800 Landcrab in the left hand lane 😮
#4 The whole point of solid white lines is to filter traffic into common lanes safely. Highways should add curbs to force drivers to adhere to road laws.
1:44 They are mainly for busier times. Car had time to see if it was clear then moved into the space with more time, rather than in the small window that the slip-lane allows. Yes, by the letter of the law they were wrong but this was perfectly safe.
In my area, we have a few of these solid lines at junctions, and you get idiots going over them, just to rush to a red light they then have to wait for before turning right.
Some people should just take the bus and forget driving!
Not sure when #12 was recorded but M44 NMY is untaxed with no MOT since Nov 23.
It's a Range Rover in Bradford so I'd be more surprised if it was taxed
#2 maybe focus on driving and not on your telephone call. Maybe use your right indicator to let the van driver know what your intentions were.
Cammer obviously didn't use his mirrors did he ? 0.40 AAH van.
0:45 Maybe should focus more on doing proper observations than work calls
0:18 - Recovery trucks don't need to be MOT tested if they are used for recovery work - road tax is also exempt, but insurance will be on the person driving with trade insurance (normal insurance is rarely valid for this type of work in the car trade/recovery industry), which explains why the reg plate has none of this.
2.30 - What a stupid traffic light setup!
0:28- no license plate either.
It's actually laugahble how many comments on here are on about the guy on a hands free phone call as though they've never spoken to a passenger before which is no different. Weird how even driving examiner's will try to talk to you if they think you're comfortable enough, but it makes all the difference if it's over the phone doesn't it 🤣
Yes, it does make an enormous difference as ample research into the subject has shown. A passanger in a car has awareness of what's happening, and will shut up when they see the driver dealing with a hazard rather than chunner on, distracting them.
If you doubt this watch the countless CZcams clips where the person on the phone doesn't even know an accident has occurred, compared to the reactions of vehicle occupants who anticipate accidents even when they don't occur.
no 10 why should he sit there???? Leave a bigger space then so he can leapfrog. Turning right later , yeah right
#14 - That's why you don't park opposite access ways.
Ahh a local one, good old Addlestone
1:30 why didn't lukasz use some common courtesy and let the mini out like the white car in front did...
#2 AAH I've just had an accident 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
0:48 - that's what happens when you don't check your right mirror and blind spot before pulling back out 🤦♂ some idiot flashed me the other day when I was giving him way, so in the 1 second it took me to check my mirror and blind spot before edging forward, the bastard that gave me way changed his mind and decided to just drive at me 😤🤡 trust yourself and nobody else.
2:14 - saw the green filter arrow then saw the red and thought it was for them 🤣
2:55 - tricksy hobbitses!
2:09 that’s a nice little car on the left
#12,got to get the bride to church on time!wnkr!😂😂
Absolutely luv the clip @3:07 ‘Denied’. Who the fu@k do these people think they are……queue like the rest of us ffs….!

Can usually spot them.
No.6 so funny 😂
@ 6.43 Dumb*ss should have his license revoked.....there was enough room to reverse a small truck out of there without hitting that parked car
How are the cammers such consistently terrible drivers?...
Are you new here?
1:05 saw another van from the same company driving recklessly today. Maybe it’s a requirement
04:10 sometimes i wonder if these are not crazy people but THIEVES that just stole something and are making a run for it!
First vehicle looked like an American truck, maybe classed as historic vehicle, hence the tax and mot?
Trade plates - covers everything.
Looked like a late 1980s / early 90s Ford F-series to me, so wouldn’t be tax / mot free yet. Unless of course it’s been wrongly registered…
Denied!
#2 That's likely to be on you i'm afraid.
Tow trucks are MOT and TAX exempt aren't they?
They always used to be but not sure about now.
The only way that a recovery truck can be MOT exempt is if it is a purely spec lift and is not used for any purpose other than recovering disabled cars but they are not tax exempt.
@@noProphet550Unless I guess it was over 40 years old, which it might have been.
@@thelegoshed The reg looks like it starts with 'C4' - It cant be on a newer plate than its age and C prefix regs are from 1985 so its a year off the 40 years mark for exemption..
Re the ambulance he could have got an emergency call and decided to take the slip. but had no time to engage blues and tunes. As an advanced driver I would give them the benefit of doubt. They do a wonderful stressful job so if they make a mistake what the hell. It's the daily last min exiters that you should worry about. But then nearing an exit you WILL BE PREPARED FOR THEM COS IT HAPPENS AT EVERY ONE>
I work for YAS. and in all fairness. if i'd have got a last minute job, I would be coming off as the next junction. lights and sirens would be on, its the whole point of "Advanced driving" and planning far ahead. this could've caused an accident. and even though we have advanced driver training, theres still some pretty piss poor drivers that work for us.
#2 - Cammer preoccupied with a phone call so does check mirrors or indicate, van driver obviously blind or just hasn’t got a licence.
An inevitable meeting of two who shouldn’t be behind the wheel.
#3 - Ah Lucasz is early today, I was already missing him, he attracts bad drivers like pooh attracts flies.
#12 - In Bradford? Probably driving a child bride to the wedding.
2:08 someone please tell the Morris owner although his car is tax exempt you still have to apply for the exemption! His car is showing tax due since 2020 which will be flagged as no tax on ANPR lol
number 11 .. That was hard to watch ,, the carnage omg .. I hope your baby wasn't too traumatised and is hopefully getting all the help he/she needs .. It will be a long haul for you without a car and I hope that you at least get a courtesy car .. Terrible tragic event you faced there .. i wouldn't wish it on anybody ... May the grace of god look after you and your family .. People in Ukraine and Gaza are praying for you at this terrible unfortunate time ..
Blessings and peace be with always ... Please do not suffer alone .. Samaritans/ British Redcross are always on standby to assist you ..

And luckily the police are on the case…my arse!
#5 : What a stupid red light design! Why do you have left filter light in right most lane with right turning only!
no#2 should have been paying attention and not on a mobile call
Advice avoid all Audi vw drivers especially nr Bradford and Leicester
How do people drive around with no insurance and not get stopped ? I bought a car last year and was stopped 3 days later by ANPR, blue lights pulled me over until they could see I had insurance in my inbox. Admittedly the ANPR and MID need to get synced up much faster. It can take up to a week before the police have new insurance data.
1:00 clearly cammer at fault; pulled out and failed to give way to overtaking van
#12: Nice to know the standard of drving is as high as it has always been. The dashcam videos on my own channel are testament to this as I frequent the city quite often.
#14: Why don't people watch where they're going instead of relying on parking sensors and reversing cameras?
Anyone else playing guess the location 😂
👇🏻
The breakdown vehicle could well have been on trade plates so would not have needed tax/MOT/insurance as the plates would cover this.
Even if the Recovery vehicle was on trade plates (which weren't legally displayed if at all) Vehicles MUST be insured AND MoT'd. However, the use of trade plates as far as I recall, does not cover paid recovery work.
Number 2. Nightmare for you. Driving with undue care and attention.
#2 that was blatantly your fault
Clip two perhaps the driver should have been concentrating more on his driving and less on his phone call
#11. Don't hold your breath for the police to do anything about this one....... or most of the others featured on CZcams these days. Pretty much a lost cause I believe......
#12 was probably in a rush to marry his 9 year old girlfriend..
#2. 100% camers fault. Stop using your phone, even hands free, and concentrate on your driving. You should get a huge ticket and have your phone removed and right to buy one for two years.
#7 Terrible manoeuvre by the ambulance, but the policy for emergency vehicles is not to use lights/siren while queuing if there's no prospect of the vehicles in front moving out of the way without breaking the law, e.g. by running a red light.
The Highway Code says not to move out of the way, and people have been prosecuted for doing so, and that lights and sirens mean the emergency vehicle MUST GIVE WAY at red traffic lights. It never gives them "right of way."
Actually. depends on the situation. As someone who works for YAS i agree the maneuvre is abit piss poor and god knows why they've done it. as training focus's on "Advanced driving" IE Looking / planning far ahead.
Training i presume has slight variants depending on course and trainer, its changed over the years, when i did it emergency driving was a 3 week course (D1/D2 emergency ambulance driving) and now i believe its a 4 week course.
I was taught to hang back at junctions, depending on the junction sometimes switch emergency systems off. however you always get some people wanting to "Help out" by going through the red, and in that case ill switch everything on and sirens included to give them a littlebit of protection so other cars arent thinking "Why the fuck is he going through a red"
@@darthkek1953 I'm not sure whether you're disagreeing with the first comment or agreeing. But yeah. the actual "Exemption" is "Treat red lights as give way's"
And that doesn't include pedestrian crossings showing red to traffic, for which emergency vehicles have no exemption.
@@atakd ill have to double check. But in pretty sure theres no mention of that. It just states “treat red lights as give way”
I used to think nobody would be daft enough to post a dashcam video where they are at fault on the video but it seems many of your videos are exactly that... I conclude you have a lot of daft people sending videos in.
#5 - To be fair there are three traffic lights right next to each other with two giving different signal to other. At start of clip you see two lights go to right filter but then when you get closer a third traffic light comes in to view.
It's a bit of a shit show of a traffic light layout, tbh.
@gordonm2821 agreed that the traffic lights are giving different signals. But to go right when the green light points straight or left is a special kind of stupid.
First clip, can you not hold down your horn at night outside of people's houses please? It's really not fun for those living there.
And contravenes the Highway Code.
5:01, but that is a BMW driving God. He is just displaying his superior driving skills. You should be honoured that he graced your presence.
number 7 ambulance may have been told to stand down due to another one getting to the casualty first.
Stop trying to sell me dashcams.
1:35 "Kurrrr-wa" lol. Who doesn't love a bit of Polish swearing.
Only in the UK does #10 become clip worthy.
And no, at the start of the clip you’re not maintaining a 2 second gap. At least you didn’t speed up.
Although I suspect the van gets a better view to see if the BMW tries to overtake the second van at the brow of the hill - that would be more telling and more educational to new drivers.
Lukasz - As per usual too busy on the phone chatting away to look ahead and move over. You had pllllllllllenty of time. Tut tut tut poor driving
