    I'd actually also be of the opinion that the cam car driver was driving like a dick. He was deliberately blocking the BMW from overtaking. Slowing down to annoy him, and then moving towards the centre of the road and accelerating every time the BMW tried to pass. The BMW driver may have been a bigger dick, but that doesn't turn the cam car driver into a saint.

    Accidents happen and while you can presume the cause of the BMW hitting the ditch, it's a good lesson for anyone to not let other road users affect your mindset and impede your driving I guess.

    As for the Cam Driver

    Just a couple of recent clips, all women and not one wee smile or an apologetic wave or nod, which would go a long way... Road etiquette was totally out the window in the last clip, I was indicating out onto that road for about 1 min, she had let a pedestrian cross and was already stopped and definitely seen me, but she decided to storm forward only to be stopped again in traffic a few metres up the road... I'd also like to mention that truck/lorry drivers are the most decent men on the road and considering the weight of their motor, I think they have great road etiquette :)

    Any other mobile phone users notice that you can't click on the YouTube link anymore? I used to be able to click the link on the top of the video to open it up in the YouTube app to be able to see it in full screen. Can't seem to do it anymore on the Boards app.

    Good example that people with dash cams are sometimes just out there to "catch" people for a good clip.
    Add in a BMW driver and you get this:

    http://www.dumpert.nl/mediabase/7230227/933bf247/klootzak_bmw_krijgt_dikke_karma.html

    A bit long but a good example that there arent enough chill pills sold.
    Cam driver seemed to only speed up when the guy behind tried to pass out.

    As for the crash, one thing that seems very odd is the missing bush and debris before where the BMW is pulled in, with the car across the road also pulled in. I wonder if the BMW has pulled in for other reasons?

    Apologies for the washed out video, the camera doesn't do sunny and wet roads well.

    Anyway, black cab having a bit of an accident. *cough* professional drivers *cough*

    They are rear wheel drive so that might give him some excuse for losing it on the turn if the road was greasy, I'd love to know what tyres he had on it, seems rather extreme with the speed he was doing.

    Didn't know they were rear wheel drive, I'd assumed they were front wheel drive for space in the back for passengers.

    Yes they were my thoughts, probably have some form of a ditch finder.

    Looks like he doesn't give a &^%$ alright, and probably doesn't, pretty much par for the course here unfortunately.

    Luckily for you, Boards' favourite ditchfinder comes in a commercial size for the black cab...

    Bad parkers use your vehicle or others to judge the space...
