Are we just not going to talk about that J turn in #42? 20:00 🤣
Would love to see the video from that pursuit !
Literally talks about it in the captions of the video
The man was on a mission. "I have been preparing for this all my life. Now is my chance".
#65 should just have let car back in after police passed. Just common decency. Rather that speed up like an ass.
Exactly, it's the decent thing at least. And I don't know if that's the case in UK too but in Germany it's actually a rule to let people rejoin the road after having made room for an emergency vehicle and misusing the situation to get ahead is illegal.
#13 risked his life for no reason, even if he's in the right it's not worth it
yeah the guy is a bellend the car made a mistake but no reason to try and force an accident
He sped up to GET IN a crash 🤣🤣🤣 what a clown 🤡
Kept peddling all the way into the car lol. Oblivious
22:00 The cyclist is angry about the terrible overtake by the cammer, and then at 22:10, the Focus almost does the same thing to another cyclist - remind me not to cycle in Ipswich...
Dripswich
Cycling should be banned on the public highway altogether too dangerous. How many have been killed? Lost count. They've got NO ID, NO INSURANCE, NO NUMBER PLATE, NOTHING. They'll mark your vehicle and ride off down one way streets etc to get away, leaving you with a hefty paint job. Wankers!
Watching videos like this has just made me order a dash cam.
Watching videos like this make me realise that getting out of driving for a living was the best idea ive had in a long time.
Me too.
03:48 They should put really bright flashing lights & really loud sirens on police cars & ambulances etc so that everybody can see & hear them,oh hang on.
I don't think it's that while it has some reality to the problem but its the fact in my opinion that A. the mentality of cars can be replaced minset and not cherishing it plus the amount of unroadworthy or unisured cars are becoming such a problem that driving is a game to these drivers as they have no investment put into the car and it'll just get scrapped anyway, also point B. is foreigners that think they know the road system then pass the test safley then proceed to drive like maniacs from wherever they came from. Hope that made sense.
Wow, that was a marathon! I normally avoid videos over 20 minutes, but as it's a holiday.... Very interesting, there is so much to take in. In 1972 I bought a new BMW (yes, I'm an old man) and thought I was king of the road, it seems that still applies to BMW drivers! In many of these situations there is contributory negligence, where one driver is 20-30% at fault. If they had a more defensive attitude there would be no incident.
good instructor :)
#13 is hilarious. It shows perfectly the weird mindset so many drivers have where they’d rather be right than be safe.
the car totally saw the bike. Look how close the car came to the kurb, literally forced him off the road.
Do bikes still have brakes or do they just like making a song and dance about everything
@@AzguardMike I think the car went over as it looks like a narrow road, that doesn't excuse the car, they shouldn't have pulled out. However why would you ride a bike literally into the car, he could have just eased off the pedalling for a second and avoided the collision altogether. Just because someone is either not looking or being a poor driver doesn't mean you should just carry on regardless until you hit them.
I saw many a German do stupid things in the 1970's/early 80's with Armoured fighting vehicles whilst stationed in Germany, a car versus a 432 Armoured personell carrier or Cheiftan tank doesnt do very well! Germans had a saying at that time: "On his Gravestone ; He had the right of way"
At the point where you "being in the right" risks an accident you stop "being in the right". Just because what someone did is wrong doesn't excuse you to then make a point out of it and endanger yourself or others to do it.. Absolute madness.
Its people like that which are going to inevitably ruin cycling for everyone with their complete lack of perspective and weird, frankly broken mindset that the highway code doesn't seem to apply to them. Quick hint for my fellow cyclists - you are beholden to the rules of the road you have no problem following in your motorised metal box when you are on your pedal boi smh.
The clip with the witness guy who did the J turn to catch the fleeing truck was cool af 😂😂😂
Slick driving
21:02
That J turn was fantastic. I could watch it all day pmsl
No 22, driver should have his license taken away for driving at the cyclist like that
#22 I hope they sent that clip to the police.
#56 When I saw that truck indicating I thought the cammer was going to drive down the side and get taken out. I gave a sigh of relief when he held back on to get a little jump scare at the fiat.
#22 the car was clearly being used as a weapon. the driver deserves to be banned.

2:08 actually the cyclist and motor cyclist should be aware of the possibility of pedestrians crossing anywhere on the road, especially since there’s a bus stop on the left. There could have been a designated crossing place (dropped kerb with paving slabs that are textured with raised bumps). There’s a gap of several yards between the car being overtaken and the next car in front, which would suggest that the car at the head of the stationary queue had stopped for several seconds, possibly to let a pedestrian cross in front of them. The cyclist should have wondered why a car was halted when there’s a clear gap in front of them.
She crossed straight across a Right Turn lane next to a big junction - no designated crossing place there. 02:03.
And there was one they passed 35m before.
@@mattwardman I said there could have been not that there was, the cyclist and motor cyclist should still be aware of what was happening around them, basically expect the unexpected. The car that was stationary could have stopped to let the pedestrian cross in front of them. Yes there was a lane for the right turn and the pedestrian should have been aware of that, they also presumed that there could be no vehicles coming up on the offside but were possibly aware of the motor cycle but not the cycle.
@@MRCAGR1 Just clarifying your "could have been"!
@@mattwardman What got me about it is that the pedestrian never paused to check whether anything was coming from the right and just stepped out into the right turn lane without every looking to see if it was safe to proceed.
@@Graham196 Tale as old as the car. Letting someone "go"... straight into the path of another vehicle. Cyclist and pedestrian both showing poor situational awareness.
5:14 cyclist is blind with the reactions of a slug
#29 I used to drive that junction everyday, it’s a gauntlet, I leave the road at the previous slip road now and drive the back roads, slower, but much safer
There needs to be more severe penalties for brake checking, Especially on motorways, It can cause so much carnage
2:22 I have always felt in these situations the car on the main road should never stop.
0:57 - sign on the wall to the right of shot made me do a double take
😂
#80 I don't see what the lorry did wrong, he was following the lane on the roundabout correctly! There is nothing to suggest that lane is for the exit the red car was taking.
100% correct
I was about to say this
I honestly had no idea there were so many complete idiots on the road who seem to lack the most basic driving skills. Since I started watching these videos, I'm now completely paranoid on the road, convinced that every driver is about to do something really stupid !
That mindset will help to keep you alive and your vehicle undamaged. 👍🏻
No 23 , dangerous driving by the Volvo - all the evidence required for a conviction right there .
#43 cyclist had a right to be pissed off. Baaaaaaad place to overtake.
Not only bad, illegal to. Revoke the driverslicens from the driver...
@48:01 and the clip before, lane markings mean nothing unless the appropriate signage is present before the markings to make them mandatory, there is none on the approach to J5 of the M3 or on the A5190 as it goes into church street
#102 “I don’t cause road rage” well I mean you could of backed off a little and been a little bit more careful with having your passenger with you. You were way too close even if they were the ones beings stupid you know you should of had more distance.
Seems to me that not many understand that the broken merge line to enter a motorway is actually a GIVE WAY line. If you can't merge safely be prepared to stop until it is.
Merging onto a motorway from stationary is imo far more dangerous and far worse driving than following the road. If they're not letting me in, that's their fault and their problem. They should.
@@carrot708 You need to bone up on the highway code and traffic law.
@@billwelsh1502 Every time I've been honked at, I never think I was in the wrong. What did they want me to do? Crash? Try joining a 70 motorway at 5mph?
@@carrot708 motorway traffic has priority,it's your job to anticipate and find a gap,or stop if need be, that's how it works.
@@carrot708 If someone honks at you once, their probably an ass. If you're always being honked at, maybe you're the ass.
If you cannot merge safely onto the motorway, you must come to a stop on the slip lane and WAIT for a safe gap to accelerate in. You do NOT merge on at 5mph with a transit van hurtling down the inside lane and force them to avoid you, and no sensible person will suggest that. If you have to sit there for 10 minutes waiting for a large enough gap to join and accelerate up to speed, then so be it.
No one gives a shit if you think you're in the right if you're behaving in the wrong.
16, I haven't seen a Maestro for decades
#13 at 05:00 I'd say that the cyclist should have been more defensive and slowed down on the car's first pull out and stop; it was obvious that the driver of the pulling out car was a complete muppet.
Hope it's not North Lincolnshire, who never prosecute.
Cyclist seems to have an attitude of ‘I have right of way so I’ll keep going regardless of the 1.5 tonne slow-moving object in front that’s obviously going to obstruct my path’. Could easily have slowed down and avoided it.
7:24 Must be at least 27 pence worth of damage there 😮
Clip 102, are they being towed? Why are they so close!?
31:15 Given the speed of the white vans approach to the roundabout, he clearly had no intention of giving way.
I stated my agreement with HLW on #34 in the original video with it, and I still agree now. Comments ranting their disagreement get screwed, I'm not keeping my baby stationary on a dual carriageway.
I'd definitely try to signal this to the other party though, to try to avoid a bit and run claim. Because yes, legally you stop at the scene. But the law can get screwed when it jeopardises the safety of my child.
The Maestro is probably written off with that dent…
Yes it suffered 27pence worth of damage so definitely a right off . 👍
Definitely flashed
Which is the best dashcam to use?
Cammer purposely blocked the cyclist. But 10/10 for the cammer that let the truck pass even if they did nearly get hit for it. Also, cammer that didn't let the car rejoin traffic after pulling over for police car is a dick.
no. 12: wonder why the cammer blocked out the details on the van, when they were VERY clearly on display at the start of the clip?
I think the Van in #15 thought he would get stuck behind the hatch who wanted to change lanes, assuming that no-one would let him in, so I kind of understand the maneuver.
If number #1really is an instructor he needs sacking, ASAP!
3:48 I would of chased after that black car for that stupid careless impatient driving, putting that emergency doctors life at risk. Bloody no excuse for that. 🤬🤬🤬
that one in harlow 4:44 happens very often, surprised no one has been killed yet
0:27 WHAT A COMPLETE MUPPET DRIVER. NO MIRRORS NO SIGNAL. I HOPE THIS PRATT GOT THE BOOK THROWN AT THEM. CARELESS DRIVING CAN KILL! 😤🤬
Sliding into your DMs like 3:49
That was some instructor in the first clip. What a numpty
3:10 that red car definitely did a brake check
Good. That's the purpose of a brake check; to create distance with a tailgater. This is literally the recommended response to a tailgater in the official highway code
@@carrot708 And then end up in a nice big accident 🤣🤣🤣
@@carrot708 brake checking is illegal, considered dangerous driving in UK, if someone is tailgating you just increase the distance to car in front slowly or pull over and let them pass, brake checking can cause an accident and is classed as dangerous driving.
@@carrot708 The correct response to tailgaiters is not to try and cause an accident.
15:39 keep your calm, follow the car home!!
#80 you’re wrong, markings on the road clearly show an open lane through the exit.
rule no1. if you see someone do something stupid, stay away from them or get away from them as fast as you can. I reminded myself of this rule today on a motorway roundabout, lorry in front of me going over the lines into my lane ahead of me, i know there is a narrow exit for the 2 lane exit off the roundabout so i stayed back. Watched him exit, and lo and behold he is in the middle of both lanes pretty much bang centre of the white lines. If i'd continued next to him he probably would have pushed me off the road or crashed into me. I overtook him a few seconds later on a straight part of the road. always drive defensively because it will save you time, money and a headache.
#38. London drivers states it all. Enough said
21.35 is it me or does it look like it's being played backwards?
13 hahah you absolute lemon
lemme just ride right into the car 5 seconds after seeing it pull out....
Uk if filtering it has to be at a speed that enables you to stop should the unexpected happen, such as a pedestrian crossing in front of stationary traffic.
30 mph through stationary traffic
4m07sec and I bet the offending driver is oblivious to the carnage they've caused. I hope the small dark mpv waiting at the jct had a dash cam too?
Watching some of these reminds me of Dad saying that many drivers say they've never had an accident but how many have they caused?
Yay, undertake used correctly.
where?
5:32 its the sun in their eyes
#19 Rule 79 states: "Do not ride across equestrian crossings, as they are for horse riders only. Do not ride across a pelican, puffin or zebra crossing. Dismount and wheel your cycle across."
Hate to see a damaged Type-R 😭
24:30 damn I was getting into the radio show, don't suppose anybody knows what it is
Car at #33 has not been MOT’d since 2014! Also no tax, which was obvious I suppose.
#102 looks like an attempted “cash for crash”.
@Rubydashcamacademy. I wish you would leave the written commentary a decent amount of time to be read before showing the next video clip. Quite often I have to run the video back and pause to read the commentary as you go to the next clip quite quickly. I believe I made a complaint before in one of your compilations.
Or, alternatively, a bit shorter. Because it doesn't show long enough to read it, so I pause at every text, but then after reading it's annoying to wait for it to end showing.
Black Volvo at 10.47, no tax, no mot or insurance since 2017
The driver who thought that you flashed her to let her out, oh dear. Flashing your lights is a warning to let other drivers know of a hazard or that you are there not to let them out as is so commonly done. If I let people out I use hand signal as we all should
#103 is doing 20 mph then gets brake checked then wants to speed up and chase the Audi 🤣
Number 2 - pretty sure the cammer was distracted by the cyclist who was trying to rejoin the road at the lights without checking traffic (pretty sure the cyclist was waiting for the Audi to turn assuming they would not move until the road behind them was clear and thus safe for the cycllist to mount), but the Audi was entirely obscured by the other silver car during the whole approach
Interesting factoid: Flashing your lights at someone _doesn't_ mean "hey, you can go, I'm letting you go first" as it seems to be commonly believed. According to the _actual_ rules of the road it really means _DON'T GO I'M HERE/APPROACHING_ - the complete opposite of what almost everyone is trying to say when they flash their lights at you. Not sure when people in general switched the meanings over, but a friend of mine actually failed his driving theory test and that was one of the questions he got wrong. Also, I might have also failed that test with the same wrong answer to that same question ... luckily mine was only a practise test and not the real thing lol
It's contextual.
When driving it usually a warning, when stopped it's to let people know you will allow them to enter traffic, (not blast off!, as some drivers seem to think).
It can be safe provided the entering driver isn't a plonker and still uses caution when crossing.
I only let people cross when I can see it's safe both ways, just in case they are the blast off! type.
Officially I have no idea what it meant, and can't even recall learning it. (years ago mind you)
3:08 the answer is "the tailgater is at-fault".
People might tap their breaks. They could do it accidentally. They could do it in confusion. They could have a slightly detached retina and are responding to a shadow that doesn't exist.
A person who drives in such a way that other people NOT making a mistake is the only thing keeping them safe is usually to blame, even if the other person made a mistake.
Mistakes happen, and if you drive in a way that assumes they won't, then any time you drive and don't crash is simply lucky.
5:50 It's hard to steer when you're on the phone.
#26 was lift off oversteer
The first one - if that is a motorcycle instructor, he needs to go back for retraining. I sure hope he doesn't teach his pupils crap like that - he'll end up killing somebody.
Drove over the junction in that 2nd clip yesterday, it's not the best design
that car at 7:08 was a stupid seed to catch up to the van
12:49 can spot Leigh anywhere!
Video 5. BOTH the cyclist and the motorbike were riding within the Chevron marked double white lines which is against the highway code. You are only allowed to enter this if strictly necessary ( for example o performing a turn) and only for as long as necessary to perform such a manoeuvre. Both were using it as an extra lane which is NOT allowed. Cyclist was therefore at fault.
Its a broken white line, not a solid one, separating the lane from the hashed area. As such they are allowed in to that area
Common sense says no. Common Curtesy says no. Laws say nothing... It is a suggestion, not an enforceable rule
(I have had insurance claims *against me* when I and the other driver has footage of them cutting through hash markings, but I hit them as I did not expect them coming into my lane across markings and in the eyes of law and insurance, I should have!)
Not against the highway code in any shape or form.
@@georgebarnes8163 Just against Road Traffic Act 1988. Why do I know this? Because when I hit a muppet cyclist doing EXACTLY the same thing, the judge ruled in my favour and one sad little muppet paid my my repair bill.
12:10 Was that a UFO? lol...
#5 the caption seems incomplete wrt updated Highway Code, on giving way to peds waiting to cross a side road:
"Rule H2 - Rule for drivers, motorcyclists, horse drawn vehicles, horse riders and cyclists
At a junction you should give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross a road into which or from which you are turning."
what is it with idiots in the wrong lane or pottering along who seem to take mortal offence when you go past them, or try to as they floor it when you get alongside, only to drop anchor when you are behind them again?
drive back along the M1 today saw the inside lane (of four) virtually empty while "finest german engineering" argued over the outer three lanes with the lorries
15:00 Here we have an average Mercedes driver. Lol
#61 Cyclist had long enough with the pedestrian in view to slow down earlier despite speeding up the blind side of the cammer's van. He tried to cut left in front of the pedestrian, pedestrian tried to run out of his path. Wet roads had no impact apart from in the final 2 feet the cyclist actually braked. All responsibility goes on cyclist for aggressively trying to cut through traffic approaching bus stops.
27:00 - Looks suspiciously like we're getting only half the story here. The cammer is holding back & looks as though he did flash the driver on the left to come out. Then there's a clear impact sound at 27:02 and the cammer get's propelled forward into the car inching out on the left. Looks like the cammer was rear-ended by someone not expecting him to break to let a car out. Lesson - ignore the flash, they can always deny it later or right it off as a bump in the road.
B something32 7RU for the BMW that's a start
Clip #61 Had it not been for the pedestrian, the cyclist would have run into the bus as he was obviously blind.
32:21 This is not the correct way to load a car transporter. 🤣🤣🤣
02:04 - ring your bell maybe???
The cyclist at 2:45 seems to have crossed over the line, too, before being overtaken.
Bellend on a road bike, probably a lycra wearing ponce too. Those people don't belong on the roads.
You find that the cyclist wa in the wrong as well as the car he moved over the line and hit the car his fault.. needs to look where hes going
@@vlratcliffe1 Partly, yes: contributory.
@@vlratcliffe1 no, they car was over taking on a junction....
Guess we found the retard car driver
@@vlratcliffe1 The car was being driven totally on the wrong side of the road, how did you miss that?
number 1 wasn't the instructor...instructor is in yellow...orange dude was a student.
51 "no excuse for pulling out like that" well it was illegal so yea.
#54 Can I just add that flashing your lights has exactly the same meaning as blowing your horn. It is to make other drivers aware of you. It does not in any way show that you are letting them out of a side road. Does no one read the highway code any more?
#16 is my favourite kind of moron...drives like an idiot in slow traffic. And still ends up behind the vehicle he was in such a rush to get past
Overtaking on zig zags at a crossing is automatic 6 points!
#1 😂😂😂😂
It is common courtesy to give way for emergency response vehicles however, it is also common courtesy to allow traffic to rejoin the carriageway not to mention good manners. Cammer is wrong in my opinion.
In the first clip the motorcyclist never undertook the car, the motorcyclist was there before the car was.
The car was slowing to turning left into the pub car park entrance, the motorcyclist should have been aware of both the entrance and the chance of the car turning into it. If he is a motorcycle instructor I would expect him to know the road lay out.
#60 the plate of the merc in front at 29:15 realy suits the bus lane muppet
One thing for certain in these clips, if there is a BMW or Merc in the clip, it will be about the BMW or Merc....
#76 to be fair to the BMW driver, he may have been legally blind
#75 Why was the cammer creeping forward when the other car was still undergoing a turning manoeuvrer?
11:48 "I hope he learns his lesson"
