It's that old tyre slogan again. Power is nothing without control.

Or ambition exceeded ability.

Even then - it's AWD and presumably has loads of electronic aids. Impressive to bin it in almost a straight line!

WTF happened to that R8? He seemed to lose control out of nowhere.

Saw the car approaching, panicked and put his foot down.

...whilst the car wasn't straight. The demise of many powerful cars

And a wet road ....

With the entrance to a school just up the road on the left.... Perhaps not the brightest spark in the box...

That was my take on it. Car wasn't straight, conditions were damp. I learnt in the G33 not to plant my right foot unless everything was lined up. Changing down can have a similar effect

You honestly think he deserved to be stabbed?

Yes, of course I do.

May I ask that you make things clearer in future to aid the likes of myself who interpret:

Oldandslow said:

The cyclist is a bell end who deserves a good stabbing.

as, 'I believe he deserves a good stabbing'.

It is disturbing that people like you are allowed out and about in society. If someone bumps in to you does that mean they deserve a stabbing as well?

Get help. For the sake of your family. Or stop being an internet hardman. Either/or.

Yes, I'm out there roaming free. Over dramatise much?

Drama it may be, but the thing about mentally ill people is that they often don't realise they're mentally ill.

These people are out there and roaming free: http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/may/16/man...

2.08, wasn't expecting that given the three cars over-taking in the build up.

5:13 - A classic example of the effect of horn first and no avoiding action until much later. The driver pulling out on the cam car reacted to the horn sound and stopped almost causing the cam car to drive in to the back. Cam car would have been for better to have eased off or braked, the horn made it worse as the other driver was never going to react in a favorable way.

Also frightening how many of the little beeps from the time logging button were being done whist the incident was still developing. Almost as if the driver's main objective was to get an many clips as possible rather than manage a situation.

Classic "I've got a dash cam" mentality I'd say - who cares if you have an accident as long as you can prove someone else was at fault?! You can even claim personal injury compo.

At the end of the clip a girl being harassed by a bloke, and no one helps.

I wouldn't either.

Last time I did it, the woman turned on me, despite the fact her "boyfriend" had punched her clean in the face only moments before. I felt a complete idiot. Never again.

I'd report it to the police if it were serious, but otherwise I wouldn't intervene.

What ws that prat in the second clip doing? He saw the pedestrian in the road so decided to do a full bore start off the lights which very nearly resulted in a serious collision. As for the 3 afterwards, at least I know there are a ready supply of spare organs should I ever need one

Maybe they're getting confused between the horn and the logging button. In fact, if dashcams could detect horn use...?
