    You're doing 120 indicated speed on the motorway which probably is 112 -115 in real terms which is okay - RR obviously speeding overtaking you - why feel compelled to start flashing at it in some outrage?

    Been a crack down here on vehicles not giving way to pedestrians on zebra crossings. The system is really messed up as both drivers and pedestrians have a green light at the majority of crossings which is extremely dangerous.

    The guy on the right in front of the police bike at the start of the clip actually has right of way, although he chooses not to use it, as the crossing in front of me has no lights at all, not even a flashing orange to let you know there is no red for him.

    The cop is hiding out for a bust on the pedestrian crossing as they've obviously been given a quota for crackdown and ignores the more dangerous scooter driving the wrong way down the street...Sound in the video would be better as it includes the siren when making the bust but it would also include my 4 year olds diatribe and no one needs that!

    1:45 at Scotch Hall there same **** nearly every time I pass it theres a clown on the inside looking to get out.

    The one of the cyclist being left hooked at Tesco reminds me to have a look on card to see if I still have the one where I turned in there and had someone driving against me ( It's entry only there ) a few weeks ago.

    On Scotch Hall....Not 10 mins ago had a pr1ck in a Golf fly up the left lane and squeeze into the right hand lane before the lights.

    The left lane needs to made left turn only......to cut all that sh1t out.

    The left hook on the cyclist at Tesco is pathetic. Had this happen to me at DCU a few months ago @ about 6.30am I went nuts at the driver and she just couldnt get what my problem was. Have had the happen plenty of other times to

    In both these cases as well as the white van driver and the car turning right onto the Dublin Road......there is a complete inability of forward thinking or inability to read the road or absolutely no patience or they just don't care.

    Any software for bulk removing sound from videos? I have heaps of them from before the start of lockdown until now but there's too many to do them individually, and VLC doesn't do it properly.

    Try Handbrake (https://handbrake.fr/). Not sure if it does batch audio removals.

    I use movavi video editor, paid $15 for it about 5 years ago. It's basic but does a decent enough job

    Haha, yeah there was a lot of shouting. I think he was intoxicated, he said the reason he was on the wrong side of the road was because he was trying to avoid the parked van. There was no parked van!

    If I'd accelerated to purposely block someone overtaking I wouldn't upload the vid to the internet.

    You'd want to check your road rage. You were flashing at a RR for overtaking on an empty motorway (far enough, he was speeding but had nought to do with you) and you tried to close a gap for someone overtaking (again, they're doing some stupid but you made that situation way more dangerous for both of ye).

    Better off to leave those types of people past you and not have to deal with them rather than looking for videos to post online.

    If someone is going to drive like an idiot, I'd always prefer to have them zoom off in front of me instead of being glued to the back of my car.

    First it is not a motorway, second he went over a white line, third he is a danger to people,it has everything to do with me if he cuts me off,4th he is breaking the speed limit,flashing him is not a road offence, so wake up.

    The honda initiated the overtake on broken white lines and would have completed it within them if you hadn't accelerated to close the gap with the car in front (which is an offense). The cut-off would have been avoided if you didnt close the gap.

    Basically what you did in responding to the other driver made the situation twice as dangerous as it had to be.

    The flashing of the range rover for passing you on the motorway is further evidence of your attitude, he was exceeding the limit but the road was quiet, dry conditions and didnt pose you any danger whatsoever.

    100% this, if someone wants to get passed me ill pull in on a hard shoulder or sometimes pull over if there are a few cars behind. I'm always delighted to have them off into the sunset than glued to my bumper

    Did you put your blues on? Or is that part of your job? One speeder and one dangerous driver in that vid, you know which is which.

    It does seem in this country quite a lot of people take offence to being overtaken

    Yes and the hilarious thing that's happening a lot is your going well yourself, they pass, slow down then pull into left lane and speed up again, I'm constantly having to change the cruise or take it off completely....


    Ugh dicks on the road.

    No. Whoever is driving the white car is a moron.

    However, it still looks like you closed the gap to the car in front & backed off when the white car was past you. Maybe I’m wrong but it looks to be something you do while driving.
    Not being critical, drive whatever way you want to but if this is a consistency in the way you drive it might be something you could change. Stay safe.
