I had road rage with a pheasant once when I had to stop for it. It gave me the dirtiest look for nearly hitting it.

On leaving a wildfowl sanctuary a few days ago I lost my record of never having killed anything by bouncing a bird of the windscreen as it swept out from a hedge right in front of me.

Funny how despite having lower limits, vastly more speed enforcement, and considerably higher penalties for speeding, they still seem to have loads of accidents.
1m 47s. Dashcams in the 70s, eh?

At 45 secs the Van's pulling a U-Turn...oh lets be a complete spastic and try and pass them instead of letting them finish turning round..Utter pillock.
Do some of these muppets think that the horn is a substitute for the brake?
The amount of horn use by the majority of these, you'd think it was life and death. There's no need for several seconds of horn blast on almost any of them.

Really, the only ones that were a bit "wtf" in that lot were the first one and the stickered up utilities van, the rest were all non-events or exascerbated by the cammer.
Quite a few caused by the assumption that they can scoot around on the outside lane for a junction.

My score so far is two birds and 1 cat. In eachincident I was not to blame. The cat was on a dark night no streetlights and it was lying in the middle of a reasonably newly tarmacced road...and was a pitch black cat. Sadly i had no chance. One of my bird kills was a pidgeon. I tried everything to avoid its death but it was suicidal and who was I do stop it from killing itself.

Wandering along the road as if it owned it, I swerved left to miss him he promptly moved into the path of my car I tried swerving right he promptly went right at which point i ran him over. Stupid fking bird.

Someone in the comments had said they had forwarded the clip to the local police to follow up.

'Awesome news bro can't wait to hear from them' is the uploaders reply. Not giving a stuff is he?

Blackburn has a very high accident rate for the population level and town size. The council bluster about it being the narrow, terraced streets and install ever more traffic calming and speed cameras to try and combat it. It might not be politically correct to say it as far as some people are concerned but young Asian men driving like idiots is the main cause of the issue.

They don't care about getting photographed by speed cameras because they're pretty much untraceable in hire cars or borrowed cars or unregistered and uninsured cars. The cameras set up to deal with the problems they create only serve to get Mrs Miggins going to church prosecuted for doing 34mph on a quiet Sunday morning.

First clip - would anyone rational not blame the DCW for that damage?

ETA - class. 3.20 - Looks like there is a DCW living near me, maybe I'll feature one day... Appropriate that he's called Dick.

It is quite surprising the number of people who think that brake-testing the vehicle behind them is some sort of clever trick that has no repercussions for them. I've made futile attempts to explain to a number of friends and family that being "the car that got rear-ended" does not absolve one of liability, and even if you are found to be the injured party it still costs you more for your insurance for the next 5 years. Worse, you may find that you've been brake-testing some psycho who will stop at nothing to retaliate.

Yet retards still think it's clever to touch the brake pedal when someone is already close behind them, oblivious to the fact it will cost them £1000 or so if the person behind goes into the back of them.

Whenever I've witnessed brake-testing the perpetrator is invariable either driving too slowly for the conditions or has just created the very situation they find abhorrent, i.e. the reason the other car is so close is that they just pulled out under their nose or cut them up.

It was obvious that the (presumably old) person was going to have st road positioning. DCW saw the danger, and accelerated into it to prove a point. DCW "won" that point, collision ensued.

What makes you think he accelerated into it?

Do you not see the substantial and obvious massive swerve right by the jag that actually cause the collision when the DC is next to it?

He didn't.

I thought that was the result of contact with the camera car, but now I think it really is the Jaguar swerving, from looking at the front wheel. Before that, the camera car still seemed to be trying to assert his position even though the Jaguar was showing poor lane discipline.

Why would you move forward at this point?

I agree entirely, just give yourself the space... but the swerve is not a foreseeable outcome.

At 3 seconds the Jaguar very briefly indicates right, so us brilliant drivers would have seen that and hung back in the interests of avoiding an accident. I have to say thought that I possibly would have accelerated through rather than hanging back. paperbag
