It was my mrs driving, but apparently a guy was leaning out the window recording with his phone.

There was an ambulance behind the fire engine dealing with a separate incident and it looks to me like this guy came across the scene and started giving the Garda some lip. Whatever it was they seemed really pissed with him

Not really worth a video, but a screengrab from a poor chap I passed on Monday morning. A good reminder to take her handy as the frosty mornings return.

Guy witht he dog ~1:40 - obv dog shouldn't be running about like that beside the road, but drier shoulda slowed down a bit (assuming he seen it).

But seems like he was deflecting responsibility, then uploads it.

Close call with Micra overtaking bus on solid white line. Seemed a lot closer in real time. Almost forced the bus off the road

That’s a ridiculously dangerous overtake. They need to be removed from the road. Blind hill, on a bend, no hard shoulder for escape by anyone either approaching or the bus.

All I'm hoping is that they realized what a stupid maneuver they did and will think twice next time. There are times when you misjudge the situation, but considering the person made the decision to cross the continuous white line (can't misjudge that), I doubt they learned anything.

Leaving aside crossing a continuous line it wouldn't have been a particularly dangerous move at all as it was coming out of a bend onto a straight if it were a better car that could accelerate quickly.

Lucky the bus had a hard verge and that gate opening ,otherwise there would have been serious trouble.

Even with the same car if they knew how gears worked!
But I guess they drive in blissful ignorance of mechanics, physics and the RoTR.

Agreed but I'm not sure the micra would have the power to get around the bus in good time, those 1 litres are pretty gutless even pushing it properly

The guy driving at 1:06 - he is completely in the wrong, ye? Undertaking up a bus lane before turning left? If you are going to drive like that - at least anticipate others wont expect you to be in the place you should t be?

But I can only assume that because it was uploaded to some dash cam site that he thinks he has been wronged (Not saying the mini driver is blameless, the weren't fully aware of whats behind them either..).

Guy at 1:06 is completely in the right, got into the line in the correct location and wasn't undertaking anyone, he was taking a turn. Mini should have indicated on time and pulled into the correct lane in advance, it could still have been avoided if the mini driver used their mirrors.

Not my take at all - he went early for the junction, driving up a bus stop (not a lane). Hard to tell as its badly painted. But if he knows that road at all, then even more reason for him NOT to be surprised by the mini.

The mini should have used the mirrors more 100% (There may be a chance the mini would have checked nearside mirror and driver was in the blind spot, but he still should have known what was behind him way before then).

EDIT- either way - its barely something to get upset about - both could have been done better, but thats how we learn. But that not really important, being justified is more important these days I guess..!

The arrow for the left turn is after the bus stop,
he turned into the bus stop lane too early.
