I look forward to that.

Simple just shunt the car on the left and get some footage for YT!

Ineeed Ashley, it’s hard to tell from the clip but it looks pretty narrow for 2 cars to fit around the mini roundabout. Maybe the cars in lane one were also straight lining a bit too?

@@123MondayTuesday Well of course; they would clearly be cutting you up, and dropping back by half a length to make it all fit would mean LETTING THEM WIN, which is, as we all know, impossible as it would mean in this zero sum game of road usage, you'd be a *loser*.

Long drive to Kidderminster where Will took that clip.

That is the thing about the Highway Code, which does say 'give way to the right'. It's deliberately worded this way so that drivers who are trying to enter the roundabout should hold back for drivers who approach from their right way too fast, even if the first driver could otherwise have gotten in and claimed priority. These people somehow take the Highway Code to be law: they seem to think 'right is right' and 'right of way' is a thing. The Code and even the law clearly shows them to be wrong on both accounts. The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 say that the mini-roundabout sign (611.1) and give-way marking (1003.4) mean that the driver is to give way to another driver who is CIRCULATING in the roundabout, from the right.

Highway code does not say give way to vehicles already on the roundabout, it says "watch out for all other road users already on the roundabout" but it says "give priority to traffic approaching from your right" without mentioning whether they are on the roundabout or not. Although this contradicts the law it stops people racing to be first one on.

Yes this was a specific thing I looked in the Highway code about a few weeks ago many seem to think roundabouts are for coming in to land on.

Nah at least 50% of the clips are from people hooning up to the inside lane on a roundabout and being shocked when people who didn't see them or large vehicles close the gap on them. Gotta get them clips. Hang back, give everyone a bit of space, let idiots be idiots in their own little bubble where you're unlikely to end up getting hit. A 2 second delay to let someone make a mistake safely is much faster than the best case scenario of 10 minutes sorting photos & insurance details, regardless of how clear the fault is. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

The "already in the roundabout" seems to have got lost from the Highway Code, but not from the Law, which causes many defences of "I was coming from the right and he didn't give way, so I hit him." "mini roundabouts - good practice guidance" summarises TSS&DG 25 as "Vehicles entering the junction must give way to vehicles approaching from the right, *circulating the central island*." Many young drivers seem not to understand the "Circulating the central island". Where does this cult originate? I can' t imagine that new drivers pore over the Highway Code, looking for loopholes they can interpret as permitting hostile driving. Is there an Internet meme?

I would like to think he would swallow his pride and learn from this, see the positive side. But you may be correct if he has that kind of personality he may instead choose to be defensive and blame Ashley. I hope he is more mature than that.

That's most people on the roads these days, dashcam or none.

And then regret it when he mouths off at a meathead

It's called 'small dick energy'. Happy to get too close to other cars when they feel righteously aggrieved, but takes being overtaken as a personal slight.

You're right ... but only in a round about way!

interesting how the right hand lane he was in puts you on a path to drive over the roundabout if keeping straight yet going around would mean driving into the left lane then back out again. not the best road layout.

@@moosevision8113 Yes, I noticed that too. It's almost as though if you take the correct path around the mini roundabout to turn right, you stand a good chance of getting clipped on your nearside by a vehicle going straight across from the left hand lane. I realise the traffic engineers have tried to maximize the capacity of that mini roundabout but how practical is that setup given the narrowness through the MR? Can't help feeling that approach road should just be one lane.

@@moosevision8113 I'm pretty sure you're supposed to merge into the single lane from there.

If only your instructor had been in the car teaching the learner the coach I was in was following - at the sandy lane mini roundabout on the petersham road going towards Richmond from Kingston the learner was stopped at the give way positioned to go round it. After gesticulations from the driving instructor visible through the rear window the learner proceeded to drive over the mini roundabout. The driver of the 12m coach I was in then proceeded to follow the learner going *round* the mini roundabout without hitting the kerbs and having the wheels of the coach barely touch the centre circle...

Beautiful phrase

😂😂

You see this repeated time and time again but the wording of the Highway Code categorically does not say this.

Agreed - what if the van already on the roundabout was going all the way round and back the way they came, the. The cammer needs to give way to the van coming from the right. It’s just best to let mini roundabouts happen.

@Ed Straker you give way to traffic already on the roundabout. The van was already on the roundabout and he drove straight at it.

@Ed Straker the van got there significantly sooner than the cammer. It was already halfway across the junction before the cammer even hit the give way road marking. The cammer drove towards and onto that roundabout at speed to cause a problem. You are meant to approach a giveway sign with caution, in case, you know, you have to give way.

@@pwilkinsonliverpool The cammer gives way to avoid an incident, as per the Highway Code, not because the van has priority due to being the first one across the line, as per the mythical First Person There rule. Not only is it all rather straightforward, it's what is written in the Highway Code.

people become some entitled when they drive when it should be about common courtesy. nobody says thank you anymore when you let them in when you didnt have to etc... no one knows how to merge, people stopping at yields and yielding on a stop sign. There should be bad driving police where they only drive around and look for stupid infractions that people do that have no excuse doing it other than laziness an self entitledness. this is the only thing in the world where people just dont get better doing whatever it is with time. Normally you get better at things when youve been doing it for awhile right?

I take it you've removed yourself out to the back yard and admonished yourself with a good thrashing?

G'day Paul, I respect you having the strength of Character to admit you have learnt that you need to drive less selfishly, I am trying to do this also, I have always been patient with Learners & happy to merge or let others in, but I get really frustrated with people who do not keep a constant speed & am trying to be not so easily aggravated by this as it then gets me in a bad mood which makes me easily aggravated by other driving habits I am normally not upset by, I wish you the best as we try to be the better people we want to be 🥰🚗

I am generally a tootle-along type. But yes I've been guilty of overreacting too. Ah that feels better,first step is admission, next one is to take a breath next time and let it go. If my wife is in the car with me she always calls me out, eg. "Two minutes and you are giving out". I'm sure if I could look at my driving from the outside objectively I'd roadrage myself!

Well done Paul. Big man stuff right there

Yeah, like those types of people who take pictures of people in public with the hashtag "covidiots" while simultaneously being in public themselves.

I love your comment 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻

His turn will come.

Try again. Give way, unsurprisingly, means give way. If you are slowing traffic you are supposed to give way to you are not giving way. Give way instructions include giving way to traffic at the intersection AND traffic approaching the intersection. Measured breaking and following distances (which you are supposed to know to get a driver’s licence) should be a clue to when give way applies. Getting onto the roundabout first is not part of any law. I personally don’t like the cammer’s driving but he is nevertheless correct.

@@jeremyashford2145 it actually is here in Australia :)

@Neil Lynch *already correctly using the roundabout* could mean many things. What common sense says is don’t go looking for trouble. If you drive into someone WHEN YOU COULD HAVE AVOIDED IT you have made a bad move and you will be held liable, but that does not in any way justify their illegal action. One possible outcome is that you get to pay for repairs and they get to pay a fine.

@@jeremyashford2145 so… you should “give way when you’re already in the roundabout”, but also “avoid driving into someone” …kind of like the guy entering the roundabout after the van and nearly hitting them should have?

Jeremy Ashford @Woody No. You should not “give way [to someone about to enter the roundabout] when you are already on the roundabout.” In the example we are discussing that person has ALREADY FAILED TO GIVE WAY. That is ticketable. Conditions are constantly changing when you drive so that someone who has already failed to give way may later have right of way. Respond accordingly. In New Zealand a give way sign requires you to give way to those in the intersection AND those approaching the intersection from your right. Although there are differences between the NZ Road Code and the UK Highway Code I suspect that on this point they are very similar.

My favorite comment of the day! Well done 👊

I rode a motorcycle for years and hardly drove, being more vulnerable usually makes you much more aware of your surroundings. It's a shame more road users don't drive with an attitude of vulnerability.

Another ex motorcyclist. It’s a real aid in spotting the person about to do something daft. Usually changing lanes without indicating. Looking the other way at a junction etc. No victim mindset but commuting in and out of London was Jedi skills , thinking ahead or tarmac

Part of being a good driver that they're clearly missing is that being a good driver means anticipating other peoples' mistakes, and acting accordingly.

Honestly this is why I'd never ride a bike. My mate got pulled out on in a 30 zone, he went over the top of the car he ended up t-boning and landed on his back. Had to get airlifted to hospital. He was travelling at 30, the other driver just didn't bloody see him. The passenger had the fucking audacity to walk over, while my mate is crippled on the floor and say "going a bit fast weren't you?" while her husband couldn't even look in his direction. The driver knew what he did then and there

Cars have to have the same reservations about trucks and busses. We ALL have to be careful out there. I once heard an emergency room doctor on the radio who was in favour of banning all motorbikes off the roads due to the high rate of serious injuries that happen to motorcylists in their motoring lives. That would be extreme but the only biker I knew who consistently avoided any mishap on his bike was also a deap-sea diver, he applied stuff he learned from his diving hobby to his attitude towards bikes. Checklists etc. Another few bikers I worked with also wore heavy suits and body armour in case of a "spill", falling off their bikes. Wise men.

Having a car tailgating you is never a defence for not braking in time to avoid a hazard in front of you. It's a stupid, self-defeating argument. If I have someone not leaving a safe gap behind me, I increase the safe gap in front of me.

Thought I seen it before can't find the video it's in now

The people who just say I can't brake becssue I have a car close behind are just people making excuses up for there bad driving, say if u had to slam your brakes on to avoid a accident but u have a car close behind, your not going to not brake are u, then all u done there is made yourself in for 50 50 insurance claim. I also called him out and others did also but yet he still thinks he is right. He will never learn, might as well hand in his licence now.

Hi brad well said as all I have seen up until now is negative comments so well said I say 👏👏x

If slowing down was required it would be posted on signs. The purpose of roundabouts vs traffic lights is to keep traffic moving.

@@jeremyashford2145 What a ridiculous comment. So do you carry your speed through roundabouts and junctions ?

@@jeremyashford2145 you should always slow down on the approach to the roundabout, assessing as you do. Don’t have to come to a dead stop all the time if it’s clear and you’ve done adequate observations.

@Toe Cutter I drive at the appropriate speed for the circumstances. If I have sufficient visibility while approaching an intersection and there is no approaching traffic, wheeled or pedestrian, I will proceed without slowing. If I am making a turn I will drive at the appropriate speed for the turn. And if there is traffic I will slow as required. Common sense is not as common as I expect it to be: some people slow for no traffic and some people stop for no traffic. And the really dumb ones stop and wait until there is someone to give way to just cos the sign says give way. I see it happen. What I will do is indicate even if there are no other vehicles present because the law requires it and because it is my habit.

@Parabellum You may slow wherever you please and be assured that if it is at an intersection and you are ahead of me I will slow accordingly.

edit: I agree his speed and sharpness he turned made this situation alot worse.

I know this roundabout. Your right, people in the left lane do stay straight.

I was going to say I could see everyone going straight on leaving zero room for people turning right. There's bit even enough room for two cars side by side by the looks of it. But the cammer was still a tool. 😂

Much better before the island was put there, never any trouble.

That's how i read the situation too.

Dash cammer mentality. If they actively anticipated and perceived hazards to avoid, they wouldn't have a video to upload. Dash cams have been a problem as much as they been a positive, IMHO

Leave that stuff to the cops, who are trained to do it properly and avoid arguments at all times. When involved in a tip or dispute with another driver in the presence of a policeman stay very quiet. That has gotten me out of more scrapes when the other driver has gone into a roaring fit and gives out to the policeman and wants to escalate things. Very hard to do but very worthwhile tactic to adopt.

This was my first thoughts then Ashley complained at the dash cam driver of driving over the round about. If he were to take the roundabout by going 'around it he would be steering into the straight ahead lane. in short, badly designed mini roundabout and the dash cam driver could have help by driving a little more defensively, i.e slowing up more when approaching the mini roundabout.

@@TheKimandKai Is that not just because the straight ahead lane aren't actually using the full width of the roundabout either, they're just driving straight? There was plenty of room to the left hand side of the cars going straight on. Painted lane lines would help, but a mini roundabout like that is just asking for people to cut it.

Agreed and easily solved by having 1 lane from the cammers direction.

Loads of rabs like that in my area. Its easy just slow down and merge in turn...its designed that way to SLOW the traffic down..the two lanes are to stop a longer line of traffic stretching back further. You can be fined for going over the white paint (unless a large vehicle and it’s unavoidable)

Yep the person pulling out was making a mess of it. But, apart from making some part of you feel 'superior' what would your approach achieve for anyone?

@@JakobusVdL It's not about making me feel superior, it's about telling the other driver not to be a d-head. Most driving errors are minor and should be let go, but he's deliberately blocking a fast road in the hopes of persuading someone to slow down and let him in. He should have been sitting and waiting in the layby until both sides of the road were clear, but instead of waiting he decided to block the road in the hope that someone would let him in. There's no excuse for him doing what he did, so he deserved a few seconds of horn to tell him not to be a d head in future.

Fair enough@@KingHumphrey, but given you consistently call the other driver a d'head, and put yourself in the position of judging their actions as inexcusible, when really we have no idea what that drivers actual situation was. I'm seeing a bit of a feeling of superiority and need to vent in there, and still don't see what you'd actually achieve. It certainly wouldn't make the situation better. Drive safe, and don't wear the horn out ;-)

@@KingHumphrey 💯 "I'm going to engineer a hazard in order to finagle my way out of waiting my turn". Many such cases

Fair. But he still had ages to react. He could see the car pulled out way before he got there. He should have still slowed down! No point in carrying on speeding, even if it's within the speed limit, when you can see an obvious obstruction just because "they shouldn't be blocking the road! I have priority! I shouldn't HAVE to slow down". That attitude doesn't help anyone. The horn also isn't there to reprimand people either ;)

Yes and no, it's not that they have no regard for the HWC, they just drive by their own version of it, they do what they think is right, according to experience, and they try to enforce this on other drivers.

I agree with the point you make, but would subtly add it's not a terrible idea to drive as if everyone else hasn't seen you (or is stupid)..

This attitude of ‘combative driving’ is very popular these days. I think it’s-encouraged by a feeling that everybody else around us is indeed and enemy and they want to hurt us. We live in a me first society, a competitive society in which being first matters, a society in which you learn to push & shove, a society in which it is not a good thing to show patience or restraint. As you say add to this attitude the fact that most people don’t drive with regard to their own safety let alone the safety of everybody else who uses the roads and that’s why we get so many often fatal accidents.

Given the comments section is as bad as the lynch mob on UK dash cams, I doubt people will want to submit footage

I was thinking the same thing. How stupid of a design is that piece of road

I take it the idea of slowing down and maybe just slotting in behind the vehicle in front (if there's no room to be side-by-side) has occured to you then

Why would you want to go round alongside another vehicle? The roundabout is very similar to countless conventional roundabouts where two lanes go into a single lane roundabout, the only difference being the smaller size and flat centre. You would not need to go over a conventional roundabout, so why would you need to do it here?

But he's significantly far behind the vehicles in the left lane? They cleared the round about before he even started his turn

I think the point is that yes that roundabout is poorly designed but other traffic will be expecting you to go around it so even if he went over the white circle he could have been forward thinking enough to take a wider line and expect someone to go from the other direction and be prepared to let off the accelerator a little. He was so desperate to cut that roundabout for dashcam footage he effectively counter rotated it

Reason he flew through, one way road to the right! Still need to slow to allow for all eventualities!

@James Stewart people have driving like that for years. And dashcammer mentality has gotten worse. "I'm in the right! So I'm going to speed up for this junction/roundabout, I'm not going to even try to anticipate or avoid this collision, but I'VE GOT IT ON CAMERA!"

This is what I was taught. There are two stages to braking - first get off the gas, second use the brakes.

"The rest of the clips could be fixed by simply easing off the gas." or prosecuting him for each of his driving offences and taking away his driving license

Yep

Straight on turn left left lane right turn right lane not rocket science

@@jimclarke5049 You've clearly misunderstood the point Mr Blablablabla was making. He was simply saying there isn't enough room to go around that roundabout properly in the last clip because there doesn't appear to be enough room to do so. I have to agree, looks like a poor road layout.

@@jimclarke5049 well Jim maybe pay attention to the video, becuase to turn right and go around the roundabout part of your car will be in the LEFT LANE, Its a poor road layout, so do you think theres enough space for say 2 big vans at the same time to share the left lane

There’s nothing to be confused about. The roundabout is only there to let you know the priority. You do not have to go around a mini roundabout. It’s only there to show priority. In the clip the car did the correct thing, approach on right hand lane, indicate and any car coming opposite should give way to you

I agree. Going round that mini-roundabout would have caused a side-on collision with cars going straight on.

You dont have to go around but you do have to give way.

@@smokego4808 Really? www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2002/3113/regulation/16/made The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 section 16(1) states: "(b)a vehicle proceeding through the junction *must keep to the left of the white circle* at the centre of the marking shown in diagram 1003.4..." [emphasis added] That is extremely clear that you *must* go round the painted circle, diagram 1003.4: www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2002/3113/images/uksi_20023113_en_115 However, it does permit for not completely managing it: "..., unless the size of the vehicle or the layout of the junction makes it impracticable to do so..." But that does not say you can drive on the wrong side of the road or go the wrong way around it. The expectation is that as much effort as practical is made to go round the markings and if, as in the last clip, lane 2 for turning right is cut in half by the roundabout then the expectation is that the vehicle will follow a straight as line as possible before turning to be as much as possible to the left of the painted circle. In the last clip the only effort made was to cut straight across the roundabout, putting the cammer close to actually approaching the other car from the left! However the law continues "...; and (c)no vehicle shall proceed past the marking shown in diagram 1003.4 in a manner or at a time likely- (i)to endanger any person, or..." By cutting directly across the centre marking without making any effort to go round it is dangerous. Which just leaves "...(ii)to cause the driver of another vehicle to change its speed or course in order to avoid an accident." Of which the other vehicle could be said to be guilty, but having seen the roundabout the driver would have expected the cammer to go round the markings as much as possible, and as such would have, as on the first clip, cleared the course of the cammer. In other words both drivers were in breach of this law, but the actions of the cammer in failing to slow down for the hazard made the incident dangerous (an offence under another law as well as above.)

Ah hah I thought it was Stourport. I almost got hit at that roundabout, it's an awful design.

"I'VE GOT YOU ON CAMERA!!" He screams as he crashes...

Exactly why a lot of dashcam owners on our roads are actually more dangerous to be near than people who don’t own 1, the amount of times I’ve been near someone on the road and I can see the dashcam through the rear window and I see them driving in a certain way intentionally to get other drivers to react in a way that gives them footage. I came out of a junction a few days ago behind a car doing 35 in a 30 zone, as soon as I pulled out and gained speed he slowed down to 18 in the 30 zone, no turns no cars in front and nothing else on the road, obviously trying to force me to overtake him so he can get a clip it’s pathetic.

Yep that island in last clip on the A449 is notorious for it for sure.

@@flybobbie1449 Always going to be people that are not local though and don't expect driver's to be cutting across at speed.

I agree, the final clip shows two marked lanes on the approach to a mini roundabout, this surely has some blame thrown at the people responsible for marking the road. If the cammer turning right was to not cut the roundabout they would find themselves being thrown into the cars going straight on or turning left. While the person driving in the other clips seems to be looking for reasons to have a pop at other drivers, on this occasion I wouldn't blame them too much for the final clip. Lane discipline on roundabouts is one of my bug bears with drivers, if they don't have clearly defined lanes (where one or more lanes can clearly be marked) drivers have a complete disregard for anyone but themselves. This creates issues for people like me where I do try to remain in a lane (imaginary or otherwise) and those looking to enter the roundabout as I'm on it often have to brake as they think I'm going left... But watch my signals please people.

What you could do is go slower, find a gap in traffic and straddle Lane 1 & 2 while indicating right and taking a slow and correct course round the roundabout. All of which would have given the Duke plenty of time to get out of the way.

@@CED99 answer already been given in a follow up video, yes could have slowed down.. I quite agree however, there is no need for two lanes approaching a mini roundabout coming from a single carriage road. It completely negates the need for two lanes and obviously confuses many motorists. You and I may have slowed down and slipped into a gap but most dont

Love the idea for the new preface to the Code. Perhaps we could add that it’s not a ‘contact sport’ either and unlike motor sport (which is great in the correct setting & massive fun to watch) driving is not competitive and has therefore no winners and losers.

Yes, they made a mistake, I'm guessing they misjudged a gap in the traffic from the other direction and got stuck in that position, but from point where the video starts they are already in the road and the cammer had more than enough time to safely come to a stop and wait for the car to move.

I dont think he he's saying the car pulling out was correct, but simple better observations from the cammer meant he wouldn't have to brake hard, he could have easily slowed down gradually and more controlled if he'd read the road ahead better.

@@lawsyy1314 - I think the cammer was trying to prove a point by flying up to the Fiat then brake hard. Makes for a better clip to submit.

@@LITTLEbigREG the cammer uploaded that video to UK dashcams last week, his excuse was that there was another car behind him. Still a BS excuse for not slowing down earlier. Yes, the fiat was in the wrong place, but how he handled it didn't improve the situation.

@@PedroConejo1939 It took me a year to upload my crash as I was embarrassed.

Seems we are alone on this, its nothing there on A449 to wait until clear then pull out. Think the kiddy carier thinks he is in town with cars at walking pace at best.

good point - well made

This is why I stay on the right side instead of the left to pass when on the Roundabout. I don't want to be beside that driver who realizes they're missing their turn, turns and turns into me. I've seen multiple bad driving mistakes on this same roundabout. One lady driving the wrong way had decided she was gonna drive down the wrong way on a single lane where I was and actually stopped in the middle of traffic facing me, like I was gonna back up to allow her in when I'm One Way or gonna drive onto the sidewalk to let her in. She turns and continues driving the wrong way. Another driver saw this and even drove on the sidewalk to follow her the wrong way. Another vehicle however I witnessed had missed their turn, but continued on the Roundabout making a big circle until coming back to their turn.

The last clip is unavoidable, two lanes going into a single lane roundabout. If someone follows the rules here they are likely to cause an accident with anyone who is in the first lane going straight. It would probably be better if they ripped up the roundabout and replaced it with traffic lights or remove the second lane.

@@4TheRecord Sorry, I disagree. The driver is deliberately cutting across the roundabout to claim the moral high ground. If he approached slowly and carefully he wouldn't need to move to the left to actually use the roundabout as intended.

@@wetterontour1015 someone shouldn’t be entering a mini roundabout if you are approaching from their right. They should stop.
