Now its my turn.

Its actually me being late and stupid. After few sets of waiting I decided to brake the light. 80e fine and 3 points. My question is, was it that/too late ?
of course Guard on the bike had to be there for me.

Now... unleash the beast

At least 2 cars too late there, it's a big junction to clear for the length of time the abmer light is on.

That Garda was watching your traffic lights to his left, he had started moving off to pull you over before his light even went green.

He said the same to me

...or you could go all out and claim you didn't break the lights.
You were across the white line before the other lights went green and that actually it was the guard who jumped HIS set of lights.
AND you managed to take a screenshot capturing it all from your dashcam before you lost the footage...

I wonder would the Garda have pulled the Focus over had you not followed though.

He moved when I went of, he didn't react to Focus. It was a nice guard actually, didn't give me any bull****, after 2 minutes I was good to go.

Fair play putting that up. Put that Guard on duty at the Galway city retail centre junction and he'd make a killing.

or any junction on N11

That junction is a bad one. To be fair the Guard is probably used to it. Coming out of the business park the opposite direction to go into the M50 is shocking with red light runners.

Sure, it was only the early red!


edit, I love the way people get Brake and Break so muddled up these days. :P

Ahhh Charlstown....

That's a ****ing **** of a spot to turn. Especially when the traffic's backed up to the centre and you've ***** muscling in at the top or taking an age to get going.

Voodoomelon

Pretty sure he was going after the Focus, and you got in his way.

Low sun & muppet!

Try explaining that to the insurance company

A77 North (south of Newton Mearns) today. Yes, I am not currently overtaking, doing the same speed as car in front with a nice braking space though someone needed to be 2 seconds nearer their destination. Why not undertake? No previous altercation(unless you count me flashing my hazards briefly).

For those who can't see it:-
Driver hogs the right lane but is overtaken by someone who manages to make a third lane out of the central reservation (looks really tight!).


Comments are almost all against him for being a lane hog!

fritzelly

They're right, he was hogging the lane but the other guy is still a moron - if he'd hit a hole or bump he woulda been screwed

Yes, it does appear that he had two wheels on the grass, at 70MPH :eek:

I gave her the clap and she gave me the finger

Had a completely different meaning where I grew up!
Woman tries to make an extra lane on a busy road, cam car driver is having none of that!

Aussie vids are always entertaining but the one at 5:00 - WTF????

Driver possibly on the phone fails to see stopped cars in front and jumps right and has a head on with vehicle coming in opposite direction!

There’s a serious hue of red emanating from that green light

Carbon125

One from yesterday. Did the driver use his mirrors? I think not. And certainly did not check his blind spot. Close shave.

What the hell was he moving over for anyway, to pass the wind or what! :rolleyes:

I really don't understand how someone stupid enough to attempt that overtake is able to earn enough to buy a car, let alone operate it. Also seems to be an unending supply of them, as fast as the present ones are injuring themselves and worse there's a new barrel of them coming up to replace them.
