Bad UK Driving Vol 346, Road Rage Nutter 

I am thinking about it, but I've had too many let downs from the Metropolitan police.

Not speaking for the Met, but my local police force did nothing with a road rage driver (tailgating + weaving, waving arms and pointing to pull in, overtake then brake check and speeding) apart from send them a letter reminding them of the responsibilities they have as a driver on the road and to be careful of their actions. I suspect, as their was no collision and nobody was physically assaulted, it would be pretty much the same. The tax offence might get reported to the DVLA and the driver might get spoken to about not wearing a seatbelt but other than that, I doubt not much else would happen However, given the nature of the driver, it is also worth noting that all reports are kept on file and even if no action is taken, should further incidents occur then that can be taken into account for any future prosecution. Bear in mind that you might need to trim / blur the vehicle details though to comply with any requirements from the Met should you decide to report. I have a few clips I cannot use due to restrictions currently in effect for the reason previously mentioned

@@thelondondashcam You have a face, a reg, and a complete piece of footage front and back - I would give it a shot considering the behavioural issue, that guy should be looked at. Driving without tax invalidates the insurance.

@@Manu-Official aside from the dangerous driving (3 to 11 points) and the seatbelt (£100 fine), the no tax thing is a £100 tickle. It doesn't necessarily invalidate your insurance (although some companies may take that view), but if the Bill took the rest of it seriously enough he would be ringing up his insurance company mid-term to add a bunch of expensive stuff onto his premium.

@@Manu-Official Think you've got far too much faith in the police mate, tbh.

Not so much scared of but frustratingly virtually powerless against.

Noticed he wasn't wearing a seat belt.

any of these charges will vanish like rain on a hot pavement if he's a Party donor

Absolute mentalist,definitely should lose his license as he couldn’t possibly be looking out properly for cyclists and pedestrians, but I have to admit that other than that,it was was awesome piece of driving for a vehicle that size

Thank you

I agree 👍 😅

@@thelondondashcamBeing Irish myself (with a strong Irish accent despite living 23 years in Manchester) I love your voice and your English accent - you come across as being very classy 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ford took them off sale because it and the Classic's bodywork was too thick

got a model of one in my loft.

My friend's dad had a Ford Consul Capri in the early 60's. My dad had the Ford Consul Classic some years later.

Correct concsul capri

My mates dad had a Ford Classic and before that he had Jowett Javilin.

A very, very insecure little ego there, and big anger issues.

@@jillspence7227 You would think he would want to keep a low profile with the lack of valid tax & tyre treads.

@Sarah-bq7zo : if you've ever seen the TV show "Monkey Life", you'll have noticed that chimps fly into terrible rages at the slightest thing...

From what I've seen your Police have gotten fed up with the court system's not prosecuting cases. The USA has the same problem in some areas.

@@vmcougarintn5035 The police in the UK are worse than useless, if you get burgled you're lucky if you get one turning up to the crime scene, about 30 years ago I witnessed a ram raid, they were there for about 20 minutes stealing high-end golfing equipment, I rang 999 our emergency number, and guess what the police didn't turn up, if they had, they'd have caught the thieves red-handed, and from what you've said, the state of policing in the USA is just as screwed up and toothless as the Uk police. The problem may be too many do-gooders running our countries, or more likely our countries being run by idiots.

I think it was an excuse to play his AI generated song, Music wont ever bee the same again. lol.

Definitely Hoosier drag radials 😂

Thank you

Not yet I'm still thinking about it, but I've had too many letdowns from the metropolitan police.

@@thelondondashcam You and everyone else!

@@mikehipperson CyclingMikey seems to have no problems with getting dozens of convictions via the police from his footage of illegal phone users.

@@AndrewWhite-fu7bn I suspect Monomaniac Mikey plays fast and loose with what he claims the police have done. The Met are cagey to the point of obsession with what they will tell a submitter about the outcome of a submission - basically _nothing_ but you can glean when a section 172 notice (often confused with a Notice of Intended Prosecution) has been issued . You _can_ find out if you take the time and trouble to follow up with a Freedom of Information Act request, or if you trawl court records. I suspect Mickey doesn't have the patience or detail orientation to do that given the irascible nature he reveals in his videos. The phrase you will read in an email from the Met that indicates that they are sending out a section 172 notice is "Following identification of the driver a decision will be made as to a suitable disposal for the offence.".

Easy, just upload your footage, on National Dash Cam Safety Portal, you will get a good response It does work👍

PS - I know they went over the center but the point still applies. Pin this comment if you like, I don't mind getting a load of shi% for it! 😂😂

@@MrFrog_ HC says FROM the right. I agree. To and from are separate meanings in roundabout situations. eg Going to / coming from.

@@MrFrog_ If the red car goes around the round about as he should, there is nothing to worry about. Now he crossed over it like it was a on some crossroads, so it defeats the point of a round about.

Tell that to LDC who regularly uses his horn against other driver to 'tell them off" which is against Highway Code rule 112.

​@@johncranna9427 You're pathetic

The thing is with delivery drivers ( Which I have been for many years) is they won't come back. What I mean by that is if that was me I would be driving slowly got no choice as it's a 20mph anyway but I would have seen where I was delivering and where I could park and come back facing the correct way ( not facing traffic) because that again means when I've finished delivering I've not got an awkward pull out into oncoming traffic and bad vision blind spots to the rear. You learn this with experience.

Sensible comment There is an anomaly there - "give way to the right" vs 'stop at the give way line' I wish they would sort it - if only to stop all the silly arguments on RU-vid In the real world everyone knows that you wait until you can move on to the roundabout without impeding those approaching from the right

@@jimenojaime7268 FROM the right. To and from have different connotations.

And to sum up priority is given not taken 😊 Ashley Neal RU-vid driving

@@laceandwhisky Ashley is not always right but in this case he is

@@AndrewWhite-fu7bn TO traffic approaching FROM the right😉

They did do something, they legged it !!

I thought they were united.

Dont want trouble with diddy coy,s.

Yes it ended up being tame only because she saw me and tried to correct it.

I always thought it was an enormous toroidal car park!

But he'll be talking shite.

Known as that here in NZ. We did not have the coupe, just the family sedan until something else caught dad's eye.

60 in a 70 saves a ton of fuel. Speed limits are just that, not a target for you in your rice rocket 😉

I know,! im still there waiting for a bus,!😂

I'm curious - which law are you referring to. The Highway Code gives a precis of what road traffic law says and nothing in there has changed about roundabouts.

@@johncranna9427 it stated highway in UK, but....... This was Google. I will still use what I've done for forty years! My point being is a source giving this info to deliberately confuse, it will be the under 40,s late 30s that use tech. And mature folk are just confused with how fast life has got.

And the flatbed at 1:35 had entered the rab before the range Rover, so rr should not have beeped. The driver might be a nutter, but he was right about the priority on the roundabout.

Now please show me where it says any of that in the highway code ?

@@thelondondashcam in the road traffic act, the law on which the highway code is based it literally says 'give way to traffic already circulating on the roundabout'.

Now show everyone where it says all of that in the highway code.

@@thelondondashcam As you might say yourself, it's simple - just follow the road markings. For example Highway Code rule 185 about reaching the roundabout says you "should give priority to traffic approaching from your right, UNLESS directed otherwise by .. road markings." ROAD MARKINGS HAVE THE MOST IMPORTANCE! Road markings are more important than give way to the right! The road marking on entering the roundabout requires traffic to yield. And if you want to look at the legal definition of the road marking on approach, which everyone should have an idea of anyway , that double broken line on approach to the roundabout indicates, legally, that "Vehicular traffic must give way in accordance with the requirements in paragraph 7 of Part 7" which says "that no vehicle may proceed past the transverse line which is the nearer to the major road into that road in a manner or at a time likely to endanger the driver of, or any passenger in, a vehicle on the major road or to cause the driver of such a vehicle to change its speed or course in order to avoid an accident" according "The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016", Schedule 9 "Regulatory signs at junctions and miscellaneous regulatory signs", Part 6, Diagram 1003A. And if it was a single broken line it is even more obvious the intention of the law as it even specifically mentions example of mini roundabouts: "Vehicular traffic approaching a roundabout with a small central island or approaching a junction indicated by the marking shown in item 5 of this sign table should give way at, or immediately beyond, the line to traffic circulating on the carriageway of the roundabout" not traffic approaching from a road on the right!

good post

Yes unfortunately there are people that stupid that believe that, doesn't seem to matter how many times I explained to them what it says in The Highway Code and the reason it is like that they still don't get it, they even make up their own Highway Code rules saying it says give priority to traffic that is already on the roundabout, as most of us know it's not in the Highway Code but they keep saying it.

@@thelondondashcam they just ignore the fact that you go round a roundabout, not over a roundabout, and in practical terms this means they will be eventually causing accidents, and i feel like insurances will deem 50/50 fault for each side. I still don't get it! I wish they would stick a 6 feet steel pole in every of these roundabouts

Yes! There is a minimum size for plates on motorbikes and these, that are popular with trail bikers are below the minimum size. it is 178 mm high and 228 mm wide.

A classic motoring cliche, but one that packs a punch.

Doing that speed in the outside lane is classed as lane hogging and is illegal doing that speed in the inside lane is just classed as driving slow.

Oh dear, please read the Highway Code

@thelondondashcam which part? The rule that says "be aware of the speed and position of all the road users around you." Or the rule that says "look forward before moving off to make sure traffic in front has moved off." Or maybe "watch out for all other road users already on the roundabout; be aware they may not be signalling correctly or at all" There's no part that says you have priority. Unless you have a special edition. Come on, share your 'wisdom'.

@@truebrit3670 Probably the part which says "give priority to traffic approaching from your right" - HC 185

@jimenojaime7268 it's a roundabout. You have to be already on it for that to apply. You can't just put your foot down and plough through a junction expecting everyone else to get out of your way.

@@truebrit3670 Look at the one starting at 6:55 Cammer correctly waits while all those cars enter the roundabout because they are coming from his right Do you honestly believe that if he had managed to squeeze his front wheels onto the roundabout before one of them - that would have given him priority?

Sorry, isn't it a Ford Classic? Capri was later model than this.

@@nicholasbell9017 It is a Ford Consul Capri. Built as a two door coupe. The Ford Consul Classic was a four door saloon.

😂

Highway what?

I have driven and been driven in the USA many times. I do like the lane discipline on freeways Drivers seem to stick to one lane over/under taking along the way. Over here of course it is called lane hogging, a very serious offence on You Tube dash cam videos.

Ones sold in Worcester can't!

Sadly, a sign that most will ignore. You need a gate.

As a person who lives in Slough Agreed

Now tell me where it says that in the highway code ?

@@thelondondashcam any vehicle that has made progress before a vehicle that has right of way has began their journey into a new lane/road has the right of way. How do you think HGVs get around? They would never be able to leave any junction or roundabout if they constantly give way to the right, immediate way most definitely, but approaching..... Either you are being a muppet for the fun of it or you haven't considered what I have wrote

Again tell me where it says this in the highway code?

@@thelondondashcam so you are a rule 185 preacher are you? You will cause accidents if you are one of those

No thinking you have priority because you think you were on the roundabout first with traffic to your right is dangerous. And yes I follow the Highway Code I still can't find your rule that you use in the highway code.

Watch the clip again very carefully and you will notice something it was me that actually stopped not him he carried on going, so who was prepared to stop me or him ? 🫣
