Truck didn't brake properly, no need for the collision in my view
It's amazing how fast they can actually stop!

Indeed, however who knows what was behind the lorry. Would rather he hit the clown in the van as opposed to some poor sod behind him being caught in a pile up.
I wonder how much longer the truck would take to stop with 38 tons of bananas on board though?
The truck was fully loaded to 40 tonnes. My sneaking suspicion is that drivers are more tardy on the brakes as they know how badly they have secured their loads...

Agreed. You can see the cab bobbing up as he comes off the brakes.

He clearly wants to teach the Audi a lesson there. OK the Audi is in the wrong but that is awful driving from a professional driver.
Isn't cadence braking a thing when you need to emergency stop hauling something like large amounts of liquid? I suspect (I could be wrong though?) Full tankers take much more to stop than a truck full of bananas

My car was actually written off in this, the other taxi is still driving about.
Out of interest why was your car written off. Its <5mph impact on your front bumper. You couldn't possibly have sub frame damage from that.

Radiator, inter-cooler, bumper bar, bumper, slam panel etc etc. It soon adds up! Factor in vehicle value, condition and previous history......

Don't forget the impact with the wall at the back of the yard to make it look worse than it was, although no-one op the Pistonheads forum would ever do that! eek

Here's another one of those UK Dash Cams videos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tCNI4I95Vo

Still full of people protecting themselves from bad positioning, poor anticipation, and bad judgement by fitting a camera.

Audi driver wanted to go left A30? They could have realised they were putting themselves in a gap that could have disappeared and decided to stay in the right hand lane and done a circuit of a roundabout and then take the A30 exit. They'd have taken the roundabout exit they wanted and not risked inconveniencing the truck driver or putting themselves in a vulnerable position.

Check out this guy's horn usage: https://youtu.be/3tCNI4I95Vo?t=253

Needless to say, all it would have taken was to ease off and let the white Audi join in rather than carry on going and end up at a pinch, then laying on the horn :/

Audi driver had a nice pair though. I like the fact that her face was pixellated out to keep you guessing as to whether she was hot or not.

Day 3 being kidnapping you and refusing to let you off at your stop as they throw a tantrum about someone pushing the bell at the wrong moment, or something equally trivial.

Not the greatest move by the Audi, but what did that truck think he was going to do at the roundabout... plough through the queue and straight over anything on the RA already? Definitely a "teacher" and if I was the Audi driver, I'd be putting that video in as my defence...

Last one is pretty interesting. No idea what the car driver's problem was, but from that point the biker becomes intent on getting past him just to "prove a point" then goes past a couple of other cars at pinch points
