By the title etc. I thought it was the cars fault, muppet on the bike, hope the police get wind of this and take his license off him.
"Most dangerous roads"?!?
The only thing dangerous was the rider.

Just something in her tone of voice lead me to think she was on the bikers side.
Just to clarify I think all fault is with the organ donar biker.

Same here, I think its her phrasing that he is "lucky", seems to imply that he was lucky that the car did not him, not the way I would normally phrase such a situation. Personally, I would have thought that it should have been
"Husband/Father/Son (whatever the paper want to use to get max. effect*) luckily escapes being hit by lunatic/uneducated/dangerous motorcyclist"

*A very loose assumption on a family car and what appears to be a middle aged man in a blue shirt driving, none of these things might apply, quality is terrible.

Technically nothing wrong with her phrasing but , like you, the tone and phrasing, seem to imply that it was not the cyclists fault.

This should be interesting.

Lambo at fault IMO. Travelling too fast.

Up to the other car to judge speed so unless the lambo floored it after the guy pulled out he is at fault.

There's already one thread dedicated to that video which has stirred up a lot of discussion. No pint having two threads debating it .

One from today. Read below

In the clip I reckoned there was a Red light and a Green Left arrow for the Mondeo, and that the Audi had ran a red. But was this the case? I am not that familiar with the setup of that junction.

Does anyone know the lights at this junction?
Cos maybe I am wrong

Ps, the clip is blurry at the start, I think its a video edit or youtube artefact. Might have to upload it again later.

I've nearly got hit a few times turning left there, the set up is bad, as is the junction just before the bridge

I've reported it anyway, so perhaps the junction will be reviewed.
You can add support, which I guess is like voting it up

It might just be a coincidence but the spot of road I reported below has just been resurfaced, still I'd rather think it was because it was reported.

Merging from N3 to M50 North this morning this genius decides to save a few seconds..we both get stuck in traffic at the Finglas exit for about 15 mins after that so he saved no time. I never understand this mentality.. I'm going to break the law to gain nothing significant.. not saying it was overly dangerous or anything just plain stoopid!

What about the road hogger in the van. If he had any consideration, he would be more to the right.

The light would still be red no matter how far over he was.

But at least then anyone behind going left could get through the junction.

Yes, once the light turned green they could. Yer man in the van being badly positioned (shoudl be noted its a single lane road though) is no excuse for driving through a red.

What are you crying about you let him in. An experienced driver would have cut him up.

Crying? Get a grip mate. Its a traffic video on a thread dedicated to just that... if you don't like what you see pi$$ off to another thread.

EDIT: Not even going to try reason with your logic.

What do you mean an experienced driver would have cut him up?

You slowed down and let him in. You should have drove on and blasted him back to where he came from.

If the OP had have done that, I bet you would be the very first person telling him what a bad driver he is and should have read what the other driver was going to do.
