All 3 of them are knobs.
I just think it's one lorry passing another, will only take a minute or two and then those behind have a clear road in front of them for a short while.

It's nothing, and it's certainly absolutely stone cold *nothing* compared too the hours and hours of delays that we as car drivers all contribute to on a daily basis. As a car driver I suffer more delay from lane hogging and cars speeding up when being passed (probably by a factor of a 100) than I do by elephant racing.

The only thing the Corsa has achieved is further delay yet many here seem to think he's actually achieved something.

I think this thread is amazing. Amongst some interesting stuff there is loads of nothing. That angrydashcamman producing footage of nothing; someone films a lorry reversing and posts it up; a cyclist riding one-handed.

What is going on? Do people just not get out much?

There are masses of average drivers and imo a lot of them are on this thread getting excited over nothing - the sort of excitement that causes inexperienced drivers in st cars to do what Corsa man does.

Sorry, but that's what I think.

As there's a fair bit of "bad lorry" stuff on here, how about the other side of the coin for a change - slightly OT - this reverse could have gone so wrong, but it didn't:

Pretty normal stuff. Lorry drivers are usually excellent at stuff like this, proper skills in maneuvering their large vehicles.
Admire them. Can't figure out why some car drivers are ste at reversing.

What... can I not accelerate now? I accelerated long before he decided to cut across me.
Really? It looks like you tried to close the door on a prick. Shame it didn't work.
A prick? Why? Because he was driving a faster car and had proper lane discipline?

And a Polo pulls out but forgets to either check his mirror, or accelerate.

Then one of those annoying drivers, who despite everybody else letting them pull out. Somehow can't figure out how to do it.
I thought possibly they wanted the closest lane and were worried they would be in the way. But no. They could simply have driven through the gap, into the empty lane.

Just briefly skipped through, and stopped at the moment that they nearly climaxed at a car running a marginal red.

I actually feel sorry for them. I couldn't imagine my life being so tragically empty.
I did the same, and stopped at this point. I figure they must just drive around looking for bad driving ? Most of which is nonsence which is encountered daily nothing outstanding here!
I think this must have a been a particular slow week!

Riding one handed with a can of beer, paying more attention to the 'scenery'. I wasn't even mad, gave me a laugh anyway.

The 'scenery' looked pretty good wink

Elephant racing hgv's are annoying but that was stupid

I would totally blame the car driver and ban him/her from driving for ever.

People die because of idiot, self entitled knobs who act out their childish anger with a dangerous weapon.

No amount of mitigation would be valid.

To get to that junction on the M18 he's also been held up no more than 5 minutes. Bit early to impatient imo.

Not technically a dashcam but this certainly shows some st driving

I think this kid has been featured before. Seems to be a proper geeky car spotter who gets his kicks from getting driven about really badly by strangers in fast cars.

What an absolute tosser of a driver...

Most of the comments say something along the lines of "omg that guy can drive bruh", says something about his viewing demographic.

Must have been doing triple figures in some 30 zones in that.

fking ridiculous driving.

However I don't think it's a customers car, I believe it belongs to one of the monkeys who owns the garage, or at best a willing customer like one of their mates.
