Interesting manoeuvre last night:

http://youtu.be/_MKHfzW8Jow

Judging by the hazards I guess the Audi was expecting to be able to use either lane. Useful smokescreen for a sneaky getaway though!
Gosh, that is so typical. Miles of dual carriageway to overtake safely on, but no, they'll risk collision on a roundabout instead. See it all the time.

I took it as the Audi expected two lanes, realised there was only one and regretted the manoeuvre (hence the hazards).

Bus turns too wide, biker refuses to move and blocks the road for 7 minutes

I doubt that would have happened if the confrontational biker (the one who wouldn't move) didn't have a camera on his helmet. Probably drove home as fast as he could so he could upload to youtube and jerk off of to it.

My biggest pet hate of these dash cams is a lot of people turn into hard men and utter wk3rs trying to capture some footage.

Childish mental pointless biker with incredibly small anatomy. What the hell does it matter? Everyone has to accommodate everyone else dozens of times every journey on today's congested roads.

The point about the first bus making the turn is also ignorant, those 2 buses are different types and have completely different turning circles.

Not strictly driving as the drivers exit their vehicles, and not my vid. NSFW due to profanities.

Found that quite entertaining until the annoying biker did his Kofi Annan peacekeeping effort.

Erm.......why is it annoying that he wanted to try and deescalate the situation and get everyone moving?confused
I'm not trolling or trying to be antagonistic, just curious as to what you think would have been a better solution?
FWIW, I'm amazed that there wasn't some kind of physical assualt, particulalrly on the Addison Lee driver, as they are universally loathed in London for their utterly st driving and general fk you attitude.

The biker could've easily been on his way but he felt the need to be the peace keeping hero

Plus he has a voice you want to punch.Agree with the Addison Lee loathing comments.We both ended up out of our vehicles yelling at each other not so long ago.He ended up a few cars ahead shouting abuse back at me but seemed reluctant to pull over as I suggested.All good fun.

I fear for the hearts of these people, that episode must have taken years off his life.

I wouldnt mind the UK adopting the Swiss system of publishing the names and addresses of every Swiss registered vehicle, perhaps people would drive with more respect.

A mate in Texas says everyone is pretty respectable, because most of them have guns in the glovebox/on their belt.

It's only because he knows he'll only get a slapped wrist he does it.

Are you kidding? American's are a lot of thing, but respectful on the road is not one of them. Loads of honking, gesticulating, hollering out of windows it's wonderfully entertaining.

Yet another example of something that would never have happened if a camera warrior hadn't decided to have a rant. What the hell was the upside of that ever going to be?

Yeah he passed him a bit too close, can you imagine if every road user went chasing after someone who got a bit close to have "a chat" with them.

That said, car driver was a total twunt and completely deserved the faceplant smile
