Could've been their first time attempting a bay park in a car other than a Corsa, and the Mini Countryman is a fat lump so I don't blame the driver for having difficulty, especially if they've only ever driven a Corsa or some small two-door hatchback.
Oh yeah, and those people on the yellow hatchings don't help at all.
But P plates? Thought they were L plates?
They might be, video resolution wasn't great. Or did you mean you weren't aware of P plates? If so they're a sort of 'just passed' thing I think. Don't think they're compulsory.Oh yeah, and those people on the yellow hatchings don't help at all.

If an overtake is safe, it's safe. Is there a rule that you cannot overtake emergency vehicles, though? I think there might be.
If so, then hanging back would be the right thing to do. If not, indicate to overtake at an appropriate moment and get passed quickly. Using the hard shoulder was moronic.

Caught this yesterday, Ambulance driving at 20 mph carefully avoiding any bumps in the road, there's obviously someone in the back in a bad way.
The HGV driver should be getting a letter.... but wtf is the Ambulance straddling both lanes and wandering all over.
The dashcam car needs a new windscreen, that crack is definitely illegally large.

Skip to 1.40 to see the antics of the loveable scamps. There's even energy drink throwing at 2.25!
Police "going to get their boss to discipline them". What a cop out! (See what I did there?).https://www.facebook.com/cristean.macmhicheil/vide...

Was it not an RTA when handbrake was left off?
I'm assuming that was a company vehicle? If so, I'd be having those three in the office sharpish for a massive b
king and a dishing out of P45's. I'm not surprised Plod aren't interested (surely it's DWDCAA or something similar?) as I've tried to report two cases of dangerous driving lately and been made to feel like I'm massively inconveniencing them. Apparently investigating house burglaries are now deemed to be beneath them, too.

Avoiding bumps etc in the road.

It's not a crack, i made a balls of the camera position, the "crack" is at the upper most point of the passengers side wiper sweep and is water or a water mark.... but wtf is the Ambulance straddling both lanes and wandering all over.

After the lorry, the black audi and the peugeot overtook, the ambulance driver waved a hand out his window a couple of times to ask not to overtake (not that i was going to anyway) from then, my car and the red civic stayed level to act as a rolling block. i dont think the camera picked it up? I must check the next bit of footage to see if it caught the near accidents on the next bit of road, plenty of horn honking (and my wife calling people stupid f
kers) but the mike is turned off ooo000ooo said:

Not sure there is anything particularly obvious about this video at all ambulance seems to be being driven fairly erratically, maybe with good reason maybe not, but the only thing that is clear is the driver filming is a complete tool for remaining in the outside lane without any intention to over take.ooo000ooo said:

What possible advantage is there to the ambulance in stopping people from overtaking on a dual carriageway? Are you sure he wasn't waving you past After the lorry, the black audi and the peugeot overtook, the ambulance driver waved a hand out his window a couple of times to ask not to overtake (not that i was going to anyway) from then, my car and the red civic stayed level to act as a rolling block. i dont think the camera picked it up?

You haven't read any of the previous posts?Interesting manoeuvre last night:

Judging by the hazards I guess the Audi was expecting to be able to use either lane. Useful smokescreen for a sneaky getaway though!

No, I'm aware of P plates, I passed my test in Feb and instructor told me about them. They're not compulsory, and I don't use them as I notice other drivers seem to be more aggressive towards me when I have them on. My sister picked up on the same thing and she passed like 2 years ago.drivin_me_nuts said:
