Apologies if a repost, but marginally better craic than the terminally dull UK Dashcameras with slightly better editing.

At 2:20 a 38 second dose of mainbeams because.... erm... the van in front moved into the outside lane to overtake slower traffic whilst it was some distance in front of the cam driver, indeed they were moving out at the same time. Brake check in response to angryman reaction was unnecessary but to me as an uninvolved party it's a case of two pricks trying to out-knob each other.

I'm going to start my own dashcam channel where I only include mundane clips from normal drivers with dashcams, where nothing happens. No extended blasts of horns, no baulking overtakes then getting upset, no accelerating into danger whilst text on the screen says "according to the rules I made up in my head, I'm perfectly entitled to do this but the other driver should die". Just people driving along, paying no mind to the fact that they even own a dashcam, competently surveying the road and not getting into scrapes. Anyone who shouts "cam-ruh" even once gets banned from future submissions.

Just a couple of thoughts: It's not driving that can bring the worst out in people, it is having a dash-cam. (Not all owners of such) and, Halfords would do well to offer a free upgraded horn package with every dash-cam purchase.

Back in 2002 I had a neighbour who drove like a DCW but there were no dashcams then. My first encounter with her angry persona was when I was doing a three-point turn (we lived in a cul-de-sac where cul-holes were using the turning area as parking), and she floored it out of her drive just so she could blast her horn at me. I thought it was a joke as we were neighbours, but I started to notice her driving when I was out and about... usually flooring it onto roundabouts so she could blast her horn at people, and general "I'm in the right" situation-creating like we see in "cam-ruh" videos.

She was like this in all aspects of her life, for instance she complained to another neighbour who was modernising his house because she objected to the noise (normal house renovations noise, during normal daylight hours) but refused to tell him what time would be acceptable because her comings-and-goings were "none of his business".

There have always been people who are a pain in the backside, it just happens that now those people have dashcams (and mobile phones, and access to YouTube) so they can now tell the rest of the world that they are in the right. These are the same people who fall out with their neighbours over the correct way to put the bins out, or for having a barbecue when everyone should know it's the day they hang the laundry out, or because a visitor parked on "their" bit of the road, or for mowing the lawn at the wrong time of day. In short, sad bds.

So are you telling us that all DCWs are actually Karens of some form? hehe
