    You might want to point the camera a bit more down.
    Will probably improve brightness

    Sound,. I'll do that.

    The trucker would be lashed out of it on Boards/in the press/social media had he hit the cyclist and he got injured (or worse) when the cyclist had no right to be going through that red. Dash cams are invaluable these days!

    Glad the cyclist didn't get hit, truck driver would never hear the end of it. Too many cyclists not using lights at night, mostly Deliveroo guys. Something needs to be done.

    Is that an MR2 or Supra Eringobragh?

    Would have been nasty too. Particularly dangerous area for cyclist too, would have been right into the barrier.

    On a side note, I can't believe Deliveroo don't have a corporate policy of ensuring riders have lights. I'm not allowed do anything in work without the correct safety gear.

    They couldn't care less they aren't employees as such as in they are contractors so it's up to them to follow the legal rules of the road.

    Helmets aren't actually a legal requirement either where many think it is.

    They must however have front and rear reflector and a light to the front and rear.

    It's up to the Gardai to enforce this.

    A few clips from this week

    Manoeuvre, mirror, signal? Manoeuvre, signal, mirror? It's all so complicated, why do special people have to queue at the lights anyway!?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,555 ✭✭✭✭Marlow




    Sure .. traffic on the main road doesn't matter. It'll be grand.

  • Registered Users Posts: 14,555 ✭✭✭✭Marlow




    I missed my exit ... sure I can just reverse back in the hard shoulder.

    The cam is a mirror replacement, so not that easy. It is also placed where the whipers don't clean. I already have a plan to fix that.

    That particular example is just bad in any way. That person tried to overtake a car being impatient, realised there was a t-junction, stranded into that not being able to brake, tried to rectify and got hit by an unfortunate truck driver. It's way worse than just driving into a main road.

    Actually that last clip with the bike it was 50/50 for blame what he was doing at that junction was stupid, espcially with the sun on his back.



    ^^ You have to be careful when you cant see the road ahead espcially on a bike, If i was going fast around that round about and not straight on I would have been creamed.
