Best Karma witnessed?
Discussion
On the m6 South of Birmingham and its almost at standstill and some knob is doing about 50 on the hard shoulder.
It passes an unmarked traffic cop who immediately pulls out after him with blues and twos on and by the time I drive past him he's in the back of the police car blowing into a breathalyser.

I was driving in London in a bus lane, during hours when you are permitted to do so. I saw a parked car ahead so indicated to pull out, whereupon the woman to my right accelerated up to the car in front of her to block me. The car in front of her braked abruptly and she slammed into the back of it. My path into the lane was now cleared so I moved over with a cheery wave.

Ha ha all london drivers are like this they never let anyone out but expect to be let out of junctions etcRecipient of Karma parked car on double yellows up against the wall just past the lampost here:
blocking the pavement and severely restricting the road.
Along comes a skip wagon who managed, after a bit of manoeuvring to avoid damaging the balcony, to get past but, at the last minute and not in a position to reverse back out, left significant damage all down the side of the car.
Skip driver was most concerned but reassured that, despite it being a Friday night with a bar full of people opposite, no-one managed to get his number and he was sent off down the road with resounding cheers.

Not really vandalism, it was accidental. Perhaps.
Still a lot of Karma videos seem to involve dangerous lunatics who deliberately cause collisions 'just to teach him a lesson'. So my preference is for the ones involving unmarked police cars, or better still, idiots not noticing marked ones!

Was in a bar in town with a young lady. The square the pub was in had double yellows all round that were never targeted after 8pm. Guy comes running in at 9pm saying all the cars are getting tickets, from a couple of police officers! All the owners run outside, me included, and a WPC is ticketing mine, while her PC partner is working round the other side of the square. I complain to the WPC, with my drink in hand, tonic water, and she tells me they had to ticket the cars as they'd had a complaint, from a barrister, and pointed out his offices across the square. "We'd normally not bother after 8pm, but with the complaint, we had to, sorry. The funny thing is, see that rather nice Jag over there? The one my partner's just put the ticket on? That belongs to the barrister!" Karma, Served!

This is my favourite one so far

This is my favourite one so farClassic, justice on the spot, in the situation they tried to create!!
My wife’s friend, accidentally cut someone up.
Next set of lights, billy big balls jumped out to have a go at her.
Calling her all of the names under the sun.
She wound down window, told him that he is the fecking stupid one, standing in the rain shouting.
Lights changed, she smiled & drove off leaving him there!

I remember when i was driving towards Heathrow airport, on the North circular, and this big toughie, showing off, swerving in and out, pulls down his windows, tries showing off, makes faces at the guy next to him, trying to get something brewing, pulls out his phone and e-fag, what does the other guy do?
Simple, he switches on his blue, and big toughie isn't so toughie anymore.
I drove past him, and just laughed when I saw the sorry-for-being-a-naughty-boy-mummy face written all over his face.

I was approaching a lane 3 closure due to an accident on the M4 and got into the middle lane with plenty of space. Some guy was taking the piss driving right up to the obstruction in lane 3 expecting to cut in.
I kept him in sight in my mirror thinking “that bloke thinks he’s cutting in”.
That’s when I drove into the back of the stationary van in front of me.

Yes, perhaps a refresher of the highway code and "zip merging"...I kept him in sight in my mirror thinking “that bloke thinks he’s cutting in”.

Many moons ago I worked behind the service and refunds desk in a large supermarket. Part of the job entailed dealing with anything out of the ordinary involving the customers including, on one occasion, a minor accident that had occurred in the car park. The two couples involved, call them the Bumpers and the Bumps, came in to ask for the use of pens and paper to exchange details and, later, the refunds desk telephone to inform their respective insurers (this was some time ago; the store had a payphone, but we allowed them to use the desk 'phone as courtesy).
Anyway, I took an immediate dislike to the Bumps lot. They were upwardly-mobile types who seemed determined to act in a hostile and exaggeratedly aggrieved manner towards the Bumpers, who were perfectly reasonable, nice and endeavoured to be placatory throughout. This didn't work, and only resulted in the Bumps becoming increasingly hectoring and semi-aggressive. The Bumps, of course, had a brand new car and made sure to announce to all and sundry that their brand new car had been ruined by the collision's addition of a small scratch to its once pristine paintwork.
Both parties, having exchanged details, then progressed to telephoning the insurers. I suggested that the Bumps went first and that the Bumpers might like to go and have a cup of tea in the cafe while they waited - by then the Bumps had become abusive towards the Bumpers. Off went the Bumpers and Mr Bump got on the blower. He didn't seem to clock the fact that I was standing next to him and could hear everything he was saying. What he did say, several times, was 'contract hire'. Oh dear.
Back came the Bumpers. The Bumps went off - or at least I thought they had. 'What horrible people,' said Mrs Bumper.
'I know,' said I. 'All that fuss and it's not even their car. It hardly matters.'
'It matters a bit,' came the cracking, umbrage-laden voice of Mr Bump, who had been listening to our conversation. You could see the wind go out of his sails, however, as he realized the game was up.
