I know that roundabout well. He was very lucky to get round it in the way he did.

Nah you'll just get called a grass on here wink

I had a quick update on the incident I reported a few weeks ago - https://youtu.be/jQO3fWJid74?t=57s - the bad news was that the lady it was registered to didn't exist (!) and no neighbours had ever heard of her, so it was suspected to be an illegal 'pool' car for various individuals.

The good news was that the car had already been impounded as the driver had been arrested for at least 4 serious crimes - and was likely to do serious jail time for them - as such the careless driving charge was a bit superfluous, but he thanked me for bringing the car to their attention. smile
Hey up. That's Sandy Lane crossroads! wavey
I can never understand why people up to no good, in a dodgy motor, drive like pricks. Surely the best thing they can do is blend into the background and be as inconspicuous as possible. Firing it down the pavement in a suburban area is bound to get you noticed!

Looking at 2.15, at a junction near where I live a guy was killed waiting to cross the road when a right turning lorry loaded with bales of paper tipped over onto him.

People up to no good in dodgy motors are usually not society's deep thinkers.

Less rubbish "fail" or "lucky people" compilations which aren't even from dashcams please.

Heres a good one.

Failed overtake leads to head on collision and a car split in half.

Blurb says one person sustained 'minor injuries' but with the level of destruction there I don't really see how that can be true. I don't see how the driver of the pink car could have survived that.

What's surprising is how many of these cars in Russia don't have ESP. So many of the crashes feature a loss of control that most ESP systems would, I suspect, prevent from occurring in the first place?

I thought theyd stopped lane marking turn rights leading up to roundabouts in case someone does

You've got to wonder what goes through some peoples' heads when they think that sort of manoeuvre is acceptable...

Obviously not a lot going on in there.

The fact he should have realised it was going wrong very early, but rather than backing out, he kept the boot down.

Woah oh, at 5 seconds in the cammer clearly booted it up from 42 to 43 mph in a deliberate attempt to block the UPS van, no wonder they felt they had to overtake all those other cars and nearly had a head on, bloody righteous cammer gave them no choice whatsoever....

Come off it. Stop trying to blame the camera vehicle.

Is that where this thread is now ? Blame the cammer whenever anything is posted with no hint of sarcasm ?

What's a parrort ?
