#10..Would it hurt to just let the lorry in....ffs.
#6 is a shitshow start to finish. Golf is overtkaing then slows down and moves back in, focus is up the arse of the estate from the get go for no reason, the brake checking or slowing down with the gears or whatever the estate did, the lorry not letting a clearly confused/daft driver back in....awful driving all round
This is right near where I live, and this section of simple, straight road with a single simple on ramp, people just cannot fathom how to drive properly. Everybody slows down because it's uphill and they aren't paying attention, every driver joining the road has never built up enough speed. Drives me absolutely bonkers.
@@rotariesarecool it's crazy isn't it to see how something that is essentially still just a road, can cause people to drive terribly. I see it occasionally and wonder how people struggle with the same thing they've been driving down fine elsewhere? Baffling
@@rotariesarecoolthe drive could be having a medical or mechanical issue.
You can see the indicators flashing weirdly which to me seems to show an electrical issue and then the massive puff of black smoke maybe shows they bump started the car.
The cammer can see what's happening and decides to go down the inside - not a good move.
And the focus is following so closely that it's lethal
Tbh it looks like the estate car was having mechanical troubles. The engine could have been cutting out or losing power intermittently which would explain the speed fluctuations.
Not exactly the best defensive driving from the lorry. More likely the estate had mechanical issues 🤷♂️
Final clip is the southbound approach to the Black Cat roundabout on the A1. The tipper is joining the RH lane, because that is the only lane you can use to turn right for the A421, and this is literally the first point where you find that out. Not everyone drives the same route every day, the cammer is being an arse.
Cammer should have held back but lorry had no right to force his way in.
I used to drive that way every day from the north. I always got in the right hand lane well in advance. Even the first time I had used that bit of road to turn right towards MK, I didnt leave it late to get it lane.
The first one was all over the place. There's more at play here than 'confusion'.
Funny how the reversing lights came on as the van “rolled back”😂😂😂
Tenporary insanity? OK well then you're unstable and unsafe to drive. Into the asylum you go until your mental state improves from where it is now.
@@waltersobchak1719 I reckon the driver was trying to get away with a colossal fuck up in panic mode with that. That M60 junction ain't the best, there's 2 slips in close proximity where the M60 goes from 4 lanes to 3 on the first junction, and then down to 2 lanes for this A663 junction so if you're not paying attention to signs you can find yourself heading off for the A663 when you want to stick on the M60 which briefly goes down to 2 lanes. It looked like the van driver realised this reasonably early on but bottled the lane change and was in panic mode from there. The van driver didn't realise the oncoming lights coming up in that panic mode, stopped too late and tried to rectify the wide stop to avoid the front end collision by stupidly reversing back. The irony is if the van driver wanted to get back on the M60 he could easily just go straight over the next set of lights after having time to work out where they are going, its a lengthy road until the main lights there and you have time to work it out on the satnav. It was very poor driving all around from them. Theres a possibility they were on the phone (handsfree or otherwise), but they were clearly flustered and confused. At least the joys of dashcam footage that protects the dashcammer and the van driver will probably be in more hot water for trying to lie their way out of it than the hesitant driving.
The truncated radio audio at 1:19 is perfectly timed. "Driving is the same as drink driving" is definitely true for that van driver.
The insurance premium of the Vauxhall driver on #5 must be astronomical now after leaving the scene twice.
Maybe he was drunk, which is why he 'panicked'.
#10 - the instant the video starts, 'fuck off' can be heard, that pretty much sums up the driver. all he had to do was delay his journey by about 10 seconds!
while I agree, does not make the "forcing you way in due to more weight" any better.
Stop condoning the actions of pricks in trucks.
Wouldn’t even be ten seconds. An impatient angry society is summed up right there.
I generally find videos of this type depressing. Filled with impatience, self righteous indignation and sheer bloody minded stubbornness. No one is a perfect driver, everyone makes mistakes, everyone at some point has been a little rude or cheeky. Just let it go. We are all just trying to get home safe. Be patient. Drive defensively. Take your time. Accept everyone around you is about to do something dumb. Assume the worst. Be the best you can.
it's funny when they do the horn though!!!
9:38 why not just let the lorry into that lane, he was indicating, it's obvious he wants to turn right at the circle, but as usual no one wants to give way to anyone
Because it's queue jumping, which is the offence of Inconsiderate Driving.
@neuralwarp if the lorry had moved onto the right lane a mile before the circle, people would complain he's hogging the right lane way before the junction, also we don't have the benefit of seeing what the situation was before that junction, one other thing I'd point out is, it is a lorry, most likely in an area he's not delivered to before and possibly doesn't know the road layouts, I noticed the left hand lane was for going left only, the right hand lane for straight on or turning right, not all circles are like that, the left lane normally for straight on and left, the differences of road layouts in different areas doesn't make for easy travelling for people from different areas, so sometimes a little patience and politeness I think is missing from drivers, that lorry driver was indicating
@@neuralwarpdoesn't look like it seems like the lorry hasn't sat in the right hand lane and pissed off all the drivers instead he's waited to get in lane and indicated and gone for a very big gap and It looks like the camera car went to shut it on him. If he wanted to qué jump why not just do it further up and bully his way in. The fact the clip starts here makes me believe the lorry wasn't and was just being normal and not an ass. If it started with the lorry undertaking ( because if he had it would show that) then I would believe you but since it starts like this it seems guys just grumpy he has a lorry Infront of him.
@@neuralwarp That is the southbound approach to the Black Cat roundabout. The truck is actually changing lanes at the first point you find out that the RH lane is the only one for accessing the A421. He's not queue jumping, he's literally joining the queue.
It`s called "I cant have that lorry in front of me "syndrome!
Rolled back with the reversing lights on 😂😂 really
Here where I live hit and run is no joke. You lose your licence for one year plus you can go to prison. Here if an accident happens we always call the police.
#10, it's not clever from the lorry driver but give him some space, it's not his truck so he'll probably care less about hitting you.
My rule is, that if they are bigger, give them space and let them in.
Doubt his personal insurance will go up if you hit him either
#5. A similar thing happened to me. I didn’t recklessly chase after them. I followed at a safe distance, fhoned the Police, giving my details, what had happened and the direction the other vehicle was going. Within 10 minutes the police had them stopped, charged with leaving a RTC without exchanging details. Not only has their insurance gone up, but also got 6 points.
#10. Why not save all the hassle and just let them in.
It shouldnt be points, it should be an instant ban and if they rely on driving for work...tough luck. Shouldnt be driving like a 🛎end
Dont let queue jumpers in period!! If they cant be bothered to read the road signs and use the road correctly i cant be bothered to let them in. And even if it was a mistake they still shouldnt be forcing their way in, they should carry out the mistake and reroute. Others should not have to adjust for your mistake.
Police arrive within 10mins ? ... Absolute B.S lol !!
@@michaelh7741 I gather from what you've said you don't practice defensive driving then, not being at fault is not a big consollation when you're layed up in Hospital, dead or have to suffer all the inconveiniences that come from a RTA. Your job is to be attentive and react to peoples mistakes as their job is to be attentive and react to your mistakes. It takes two idiots for most accidents to occur. Not being at fault does not mean that you couldn't have taken actions to avoid or mitigate an accident.
@gravemind6536 offence is the best defence. You just need to make it observantly clear that the space in front of you is a no go for those that may wish to move into that space. Pretty easy and safe to do in slow moving traffic.
#5 there was no need to recklessly follow the car at all. You have the numberplate and the evidence on video. Just report them to the police and insurance.
#6 cammer worsened the situation by trying to undertake, then complains, lol
That car weaving all over in front of the lorry - looks like a crash for cash scam
Do you reckon? I stupidly never thought of that. If it was that, it was about the dumbest way to do it imaginable lol.
Seems like mechanical issues to me. People looking to do a crash for cash probably wouldn't use their hazard lights to warm other drivers of their attempts.
I’m glad you used the red arrow on #8 or I’d never have guessed what I was supposed to be looking at.
mini was probs giving the other driver a disapproving look for turning around in front of him, bet he regretted not paying attention.
Openreach drivers can be very inconsiderate but don't start me off about DPD!
DPD= Dangerous Person Driving
Last 2 clips not worthy of an upload. Drivers just looking for something to save.
9:38 the cammer is the problem, made a massive issue for himself that could have been avoided by paying attention.
So, the car in front of the truck in #6 is clearly on some exotic substance....
He was all over the road, in the wrong lane and reacts to the lorry driver who did nothing wrong. Entitled prick.
So, why does everyone start a sentence with the word 'so'.
2:06 he just wanted to sit on your knee Cloudmaker lol 😂
#7 If only there was some why of finding out who he works for to claim on their insurance for your damaged mirror?
4:48 So you broke the speed limit with a damaged car, and dangerously overtook multiple vehicles on the left..? Your dashcam footage should get you banned...
It’s simply not worth it, he had the footage of the car hitting the rear of his on camera.
#8 He definitely did not cross a solid white line to do that overtake
The volvo did as merging back over to the correct lane. You can see the keep left arrows as the clip changes to the front view and the volvo is half way back over as it goes over the solid white line.
@@douglasreid699 - you may want to check out the dotted centre lines at 8:56 then, as the Volvo was already on the other side of the road before the solid line started. The Volvo was already moving back to the left lane when the arrows started.
@@tyc0746 there is only 1 arrow then the solid line from the front view camera, and the volvo is still merging back over, so was over the solid white line before completing the overtake.
8:52 I can never decide if DPD stands for Damaged Parcels Delivered or Dozy Prick Driving
I recently watched the three hours of 'Oppenheimer', some of these clips seemed longer.
3. Take your big boot off the go-faster pedal!
9:00 calm down, let him in.
2:35, believe me, they're ALL like that at Heathrow. I had 30yrs of it, and don't miss it at all. And now the airport authorities charge you a fiver a time to have a fight for roadspace there...
Can imagine, mate. I'd rather walk ten miles to the airport.
@@goodyeoman4534Flying is the MOST polluting form of transport: stay at home😂
@@alanclarke4646 I tend to, mate. I've been on a plane twice in my life.
@@goodyeoman4534I'll be 63 this year, and I've NEVER flown.
@@alanclarke4646 But you supported the wearing of face-nappies which did irreparable harm to the environment. So we're even.
#5 You've got them on camera driving into the back of you. They failed to stop so it's a slam dunk hit and run. There was no need to drive so recklessly to force them to stop. Pull the footage and report them to the police.
Yeah, I mean, he's got their plate. There's no need to follow. Could've been a psycho in the other car.
Although, dangerous driving aside, it’s often a lot easier to make a successful non-fault claim if you can name the defendant. Obviously there’s a chance of false details being provided, but worth pursuing them if it’s safe to do so and you don’t have to drive recklessly to catch them up.
The police will just drop the case without even bothering to send a S172. Insurance can be a problem when the driver isn't identified too.
@@tadcastertory1087 I wouldn't have thought he had time to check his footage to know he had the plate first!
I swear some of the people that reply to these think they live in the perfect world where things all work as they should & you’ll never be left out of pocket for something that wasn’t your fault.
Firstly he had no idea if the cam caught clean plate footage until later when reviewing it & secondly I think the vast majority of people would follow someone who just hit them and drove off, it’s a fairly normal reaction to someone doing that to you.
8:05 karma for closing the gap
There are some strange and dangerous people on the roads and many of them have a dashcam.
9:35 miles away from you love calm down
Delivering Parcels Dangerously
#6 definitely insurance scam
Why do people think they can get away with rear ending someone and make excuses, in 2019 I had some woman come out of a side road and straight into the rear of my 4x4 her first comment I thought you were going through (there was a vehicle parked on my side off the road with another coming towards me (right of way)) her second was i didn't see you🤔 how can she miss a large vehicle.
But these videos show that the standard of driving is deteriorating in this country.
#6 - ah the classic Albanian Scam. Had them try it on me. If he had a rear camera, you'd see a similar car following the lorry driver ready to be a "witness" to the accident. I've had one try it on me when I worked as a HGV driver.
Is there no beginning to the enrichment those guys give us?
#6 looks like a crash for cash attempt
should let that lorry in , i always have more respect for lorries
as i can imagine how hard its is and THEY ARE BIGGER THAN ME ..............
The truck driver is an asshole himself. And sends in his own recording...
#5 I would leave that sort of driving to the well trained emergency services. Your driving was way over the top in trying to catch up with and stop the other motorist after a minor bump.
#5 - the driver of the blue car should lose his licence for being such a dick and driving off TWICE, but as others have said, OP shouldn’t have driven recklessly to catch him up to confront him as he had everything on dashcam anyway.
Ruh Roh
Good old open reach never met a more ignorant terrible drivers
#5 Do you think driving like a lunatic trying to catch him was the correct thing to do or was it silly and possibly dangerous to other road users ? Did the police prosecute him ?
You have their registration number, all that needed to be done was hand that over to your insurer and the police and they would have had a field day for leaving the scene.
@ Stubbino: At the time you don’t know if you have the other vehicles details on video until you can review the footage. There are frequent instances where number plates are cloned, and the accident vehicle is a similar make, model and colour but not the actual vehicle. At the first stop you should use your mobile to grab a picture of the driver and also the VIN (it’s visible behind the windscreen on the left side on most modern vehicles) if possible.
It’s seldom easy to respond with a clear head to such an unexpected incident, but the person who drove off (twice) should have as a minimum points on their license (assuming they have one) and maybe even a ban - certainly for driving away twice before giving their details.
@@theonlywoody2shoesI agree with most of what you said. But cloned plates does not justify driving like a lunatic and endangering other road users. Sure, you can speed up and follow them and flash/beep until they stop, but pulling in front of the car in a reckless attempt to stop them? Both drivers should have their license revoked.
8:03 LC66 YDP driver should retake their test and get charged for driving without due care AND crossing solid line and chevrons, theyre there for a reason
#9, and you're SURPRISED by this...?
The "hit and run" vehicle, you just need the dashcam evidence. You're risking a dangerous driving charge chasing after them plus you don't know who they are so forcing a vehicle to stop is a completely unnecessary risk. Lorry driver on the A3, def could have given them more space seeing as they didn't appear to be at all situationally aware. then tailgating and flashing when they had hazard lights on was unnecessary too, the effort would be better placed setting up to overtake them. Rob63 needs to chill out and let these things go. Doubt it cost you any time either
I don't think chasing the car that hit you was a great idea. You never know who you are dealing with and you have all the evidence you need on dashcam.
#5 BREAKING NEWS: You're not the police.
Neither are the police half the time.
He's a pound shop Mad Max
did he fuck show that full video to the police lol.
Anyone who hits and run like car in #5 should have a automatic driving ban so they can now only run for a bus.
You are a truck driver, you see unconfident driver in front of you, changing lanes from left to right and what you do ? Ofcourse you accelerate...
Well done mate for chasing down that car, I would have done the same and called the police at the same time, I bet the police did nothing, I was half expecting them not to have any insurance
#6 that car has some mechanical faults for sure its struggling under powe keeps dumping soot he has hazards on and alps his left for a while too i thin he has mechanical issues and tried to overtake and its started to fail ok him so he is limping home
Then why did he keep going into the left lane? If you have mechanical problems you stay right!
@@owieprone Why on earth would you stay right?
@@owiepronethis isn’t america or the rest of Europe. Why on earth would you stay right? Quite possibly the turbo pipe has slip going by the look of lost power and black smoke from the exhaust.
With all the car cam vids on utube wonder if any muppets have seen themselves doing random chit
The amount of prats on the road.
#5 you’re having a laugh aren’t you? Driving like that when you’ve got it on cam? What a way to incriminate yourself as well!
To be fair I would have probably done the same. But the cammer could have either cut out all 'chase' OR just gone to the police.... The reason you have a reverse facing camera.
"Driving like that" Driving like what? Pulling 4000 rpm? Maybe hitting 50mph? He wasn't screaming through traffic lights or ramming other cars out of the way.
@@smorris12 weaving around traffic? Cutting in front of the person who hit his car? And he was clearly going fast than 50…unless you think everyone was doing 30?
Other people would have kicked off the other car's wing mirror as it tried to speed off, something I absolutely do not condone.
#10 if you don't wanna get elbowed out the way don't leave the inch they'll use to take the mile.
5:50 - So he "panicked", and left the scene? But didn't contact his insurer afterwards? Hoped to get away with it more like. People like that should get points on their license.
Thumbnail’s a bit disingenuous, don’t you think? The lorry had nothing to do with #5.
Speaking of, #5 shouldn’t act like that wasn’t anything but full on road rage head case mode. Fine, so they hit you. We get it. What followed was completely unnecessary. You had the camera footage, and you put a bunch of others and yourself t risk by driving like that. And to then get out and have an argument I. The middle of traffic? Bloody stupid.
Dufus of the week in the first clip.
6:03 probably nothing wrong with your car that's why he did one.. at that speed,bet the damage is nothing.. I was more concerned at the speed you chanced him down and the reckless driving were doing to catch him up. And if the police had any sense would have done you for dangerous driving🤔
puff
@@p00tp0t the magic dragon?
#6 Maybe, just maybe, he was p'd that an hgv is behind him with less than a 1 second gap on a fast road in the wet??
That was because they were driving ridiculously slow. Throughout the whole clip everyone had to slow down for them.
6:10 Ah Stan the self appointed traffic controller! fascinating hobby, I believe that the Society of Controllers of Urban and motorway Traffic Scheme or C.U.N.T.S for short carry the Eye Spy book of UK road Vehicles and tick them off each time they successfully hinder the vehicle's progress. When the book is complete, they send it in and get a shiny badge that they can fix to their existing 'trophy cabinet' strapped to the front of the car. Other badges include The Caravan and Camping club, the RAC, The Advanced Drivers Association and of course the 'V' for Veteran Motorists Club. At least that's what I think the V meant!
Oh pipe down and take your meds, you miserable git.
😪 6:39 you drove at him/her.... they are signalling.
#7 undertakes aren't illegal lmao
May be its not the undertake, it's the 'cant be ar5ed to merge in tern' that bugged the cammer.
"doing an illegal undertake"
An illegal undertake, is illegal.
It is when you cross a solid chevron into traffic to do it.
@@Leidolfr an undertake by law is not illegal
@@gloriousradio that’s not the undertake that’s illegal then is it. It’s the crossing of the lines
Something wrong with this video,keeps stopping,no sound,couldn’t watch it properly,useless
5:06 There really was no need for the road rage and dangerous driving, he already had him on camera, send it to the police and let them sort it out, instead of chasing him like a nutter and risk causing another accident.
#6 - the truck driver isn't sure what the driver is doing... so they think illegally undertaking will help. FFS.
And driving up their arse too.
Why let them just drive off and try to get away with it,the cammer was the innocent party and if it had happened to me I would have gone after him as well and take his photo,the police wouldn’t have done anything and he probably would have said that it wasn’t him driving and somebody on false plates,well done mate on catching him up 👍😎
#5 Well done mate - that's what we used to do before everyone became pansy snowflakes
4:33 Did you report yourself for the undertaking manoeuvre? Why bother chasing him down when you had his car reg and footage of the accident - he could have given you false details if he wanted to and you'd have been none the wiser until later. Also, inviting an idiot to leave the scene of an accident is surely an invite for them to scarper?
undertaking isn't illegal.
@@will5023
What the cammer did is.
He wasn't just passing on the left, he was passing the left to cut into the right, which is illegal.
The *only* time undertaking is legal is if the other lanes are going slower than the limit and your lane.
@@will5023 Only legal to do so if there's queue on the right and it's moving slower than you, which was the case here.
So yeah, him passing other cars on the inside wasn't a problem. Him then swerving in front of other cars from the left feeder lane could probably be classed as careless driving though.
@@will5023 better re sit your test then.
@@Leidolfr wrong. Undertaking is never illegal. It can however be punished if deemed careless driving which is illegal.
7:00 why ya shouldn't do lines whilst driving
