I assumed helmet cam?

Bloke is driving like a pr1ck.
That he was but how many others on the motorway in the middle and outside lanes were doing the same? Too many to count. No wonder overtaking on the left is becoming more common.

5:22 - the camera car themselves (and the white van two ahead) are the ones in the wrong surely?
The 'featured' car (Black toyota) didn't do anything wrong and was adhering to the line markings...
Certainly looked that way to me too.
Other than not giving way to traffic on a roundabout wink
There was no 'way to give' in this instance. The 'way' for the Toyota was clear (LH lane of the roundabout)
Both the van and the car were in the right hand lane which is the positioning to continue round the roundabout (and not to be taking the exit they did - they crossed the white line).

The van and camera car were in the correct lane to take that exit. It's clearly marked that both lanes can be used to take the A4232 into Cardiff. The Toyota had just come off the M4, j33, eastbound, and should have given way to the traffic already on the roundabout.

The van and camera car were in the [b]wrong[b] lane of the roundabout prior to the Toyota entering the roundabout, and if they'd both stayed in their lane there would have been no incident.

I said exactly this myself earlier. Seems like Monkfish and Laurel would be best sending their licences back to Swansea asking for them to be cancelled as they clearly haven't got a clue how to drive. hehe

Looks like good use of the available road space to me smile. If the other 90% of the drivers moved over when they've clearly no intention of actually making any progress and just want to sit alongside stuff doing the same speed, then he wouldn't need to get creative with his lane use. You see those lemming trains in lane 3 on pretty much every motorway these days with no-one making any progress.
What are the warning lights on his dash?
They aren't warning lights.

They're innit bruv lights flashing in time to his innit bruv music.

Swansea is only about half an hours drive away from there, assuming you don't give way at any junctions.

Much of the time lane 1 is for leaving at the next junction, which is why people aren't moving over except those he nearly crashes into by trying to get the jump on them.

I can't help but feel that a high percentage of the victims in these videos could take earlier action to avoid these incidents, or do they want to make a point as they feel their dash cams protect them??

Another, yes they shouldn’t have moved out but why the fk haven’t you reacted/prepared for the likely event DCW video. I do wonder if a lot of these people have social disorders such that they can’t tell the difference between being right and doing the right thing.

I thought that, seemed a pointless exercise by the Jazz, but sure they had a reason, something existing the petrol station, turning right etc, nearly went through the whole of Rocks by Primal Scream whilst the car was indicating.

Cool story Bro and all but I had my own moment last night was on foot, walking the dog, here

https://www.google.com/maps/@53.3160984,-2.2373877...

I was on the left side, as was the truck,

I could hear a large vehicle, which I guessed was a HGV, it was, a Muller Dairies milk truck, then there was an almighty bang, a red polo had decided to overtake said milk truck and was now taking a detour down the central reservation. I absolutely jumped out of my skin as wasn't exactly watching closely, just saw the end of it and the truck driver expressing his bemusement of the Polo drivers actions.

Its a fairly high kerb, Polo driver stopped briefly but then scuttled off, surprised its still going but guessing there will be significant damage hitting a kerb at maybe 30 ?

The Jazz moved out (probably) to turn right at the roundabout 200 yards down the road.

Correct, that's a right turn only lane that heads towards the Horsham bypass from Crawley.
