The car ripped straight from the field rather than the road, perhaps it was stolen? Drunk driver? Unbelievable that the truck missed it.

"Is that still filming me?"
"Yes. Do you want me to switch it off, officer?"
"No. Leave it running so you can show all your mates that you got a big telling off from a police officer on a horse."

The man was only pulling a wheelie, then along came the high horse brigade............sorry I'll leave.

67 is the highest I could read. Or roughly, 110km/h

Video says:

Just to make clear to everyone bike has modification on sprockets so speed is not accurate at all

But I think that's a pretty obvious attempt to say 'Here's me uploading this clip, let's all have a *wink*wink* *nod*nod* and enjoy the clip for what it is'

F*** your Yamaha, I've a horse outside.

What is it that so many drivers find hard to understand about staying in their own lane? I would say at least 1/4 of the time I go through this junction the people in the right lane drive straight across blocking off the left lane.

This is a particularly brilliant example, asshole blocks lane then goes full on road rage when he gets his own medicine back.

Some pretty awful driving from both of you. I would of held back both times he crossed into my lane and kept my distance. Cutting up the car indicating to turn left in the bus lane was far worse than his poor lane discipline.

This was posted last year ?

I'm betting a fiver on three pages.

1 Page 5/1
2 Pages 7/1
3 Pages Evens
4 Pages 10/1

There's a stereotype joke to be had there somewhere.

Welcome to Dublin have a nice day?

Euro general (originally 2Euro shop) put up on their FB page that they have dash cams in stock for 10E.
just to let ye know.

Wind your neck in, or at least point it somewhere else. The video is not mine, just popped up on utube and caught my interest as I have seen the same thing there countless times as well as having a colleague who had an idiot crash into him doing exactly the same manouvere there.

I don't agree with the way the camera car cut up the red car in the bus lane at all but to be fair the car only started indicating as he passed it. The SUV driver was the instigator and by far the worst out of the pair of them. Swerving into the other car on purpose, accelerating to cut in front and slam on the brakes. No question but that guy deserves a lengthy driving ban.

Sterling Archer · 18-11-2014 3:20am

That was posted and discussed at length before. .. terrible driving from both etc. etc. etc.

Next

That is just total disregard for the rules of the rd... Like where does the cyclist get off, running a red light like that?!

bear1 · 18-11-2014 11:03am

2013? My time machine works!!!

Just to stop that video dragging on, it was posted last year by the actual driver of the dashcam car. He got slated, rightly or wrongly is up to you to decide. In my opinion both gob****es.
Now to move on before a mod gives us ANOTHER warning:

I too have encountered such arrogant Munkey Nuts many times, even today morning too.

And his knees were pointed out and he seems to be wobbling alot/bouncing all over the place, he'd be alot quicker if he stopped at the lights and learned how to ride a bike properly.

OK, I know you shouldn't take pleasure in other people's misfortune, but this had me giggling this morning......

It's the M8 just before the Jack Lynch tunnel in Cork and you always get cnuts zipping down the inside on the hard shoulder. This morning the local gendarmerie were waiting with a the welcome mat - hopefully with some sage advice and an FPN!

And even with the Garda car parked right there you still have idiots merging across the hatched markings.

That Garda car looked like it was too far to the left for the line jumper to spot and of course there was no way anyone was going to let him back in!

Mirror mirror......on the ground.

I wonder if the other lorry lost a mirror as well.
also on that video at 0:06 you can nearly see the car with only parking lights on. :mad:

Truck coming towards camera still has the mirror frame, backing looks damaged and glass is probably gone also. It was mostly his fault, he is too far over. Road is narrow but that is just stupid. It is one thing taking up space on cars but there is no point doing it to other large vehicles, they have no more room so it is bound to cause a collision. Another few inches and it would have been a nasty sideswipe or bumper clip.

It's my bike cam. Plus that's only a fraction of the info I could overlay on the video

To make up for any potential faux pas' here's one with a couple of bikers (one motor bike and the infamous 'don't bully me I'm a woman clip') in the right.

The hard man v. biker one is hilarious.
