Yeah the 1st video is what I also see quite often (and hate it). Good job avoiding him. But the 2nd video...the cyclist..good thing you stopped (and the guy going in an opposite direction).

These in-car cameras are great - I really must look at getting one.
They could definitely save your bacon at times.

The first one was obviously your fault Shambles.
You were going too fast. :Shocked: ;)

And for the second. My dad always told me, "Give way to the car on your right and the idiot on your left".

Probably - I do tend to keep my motorway speeds around 67mph, it being a 70mph limit :rolleyes:

The guy on the bike almost spilled his 'White Lightening' (ultra cheap cider which sends ya blind)...  The guy on the motorway, well, ya need to have bull bars fitted :-)...

As an Aside Steve, I just filled up at Bowker Vale, and went to Heaton Park Sainsburys which had very modest queuing if that's any help.   My daughter who lives in your neck of the woods, says all her locals are sold out <sigh>  aren't we all predictable idiots  !!!!

The second one doesn't surprise me as we all know that once you're in a carpark road laws no longer apply....  :p :lol:

That's not the case in Queensland. All road rules apply in carparks which are referred to as "road related areas"

  • Wirral, UK. - 1.4 Petrol Active - Aqua Blue
The 1st one moved over as a matter of course there being a joining slip road but the driver wasn't looking as there were no vehicles....


The 2nd...... did you notice there was a child seat on the back.  No child....  Also, he didn't have a helmet on ........so again it was your fault.........
  • 1.4 Petrol Active I'm no expert, so please correct me if

Why is it those cyclist always whine so much when they get run down by a car..? they cause the accidents themselves.
