Get out of here with your righteous driving!

MaceFace's fault for hiding behind the Golf's B pillar.

The aftermath is the car version of this

Voodoomelon · 24-10-2017 06:04PM

I followed this guy from Dundalk to Blackrock, about 5km and he was all over the place. Had a kid in the front seat with him who was waving his phone about, not paying any attention to the road.

Looks like the white lorry driver had to dodge a mad overtaker.
Wonder if either truck had a dash cam.

Should be in the "bad parking" thread,

The white lorry was English/Northern reg, and a hire/lease vehicle so maybe inexperience was a factor. It was one of those roads where you get 'sucked in' if you leave the tarred strip. His windscreen was cracked on the passenger side so it wasn't a gentle slide in.

What is wrong with your cam?
I thought I was in the house of mirrors at Funderlnd there for a minute

Ya can grab you fairly quick, it's also fairly come place to see some terrible overtaking on that road

Land Rover! Suspension is classed as a luxury and the camera tries to compensate........

My first taught was that's why you shouldn't text and drive.

I also thought it was an inexperienced rental truck driver, but now I think a bad overtake of the broken down logging truck forced the rental driver to take evasive action.

No, to me it appears that the logging truck was being overtaken by someone who left it so late that the white truck had to dodge out of its way and ended up in the ditch.

The logging truck probably stopped after the incident to help.

And the fact that he is still there, after the guards arrive, means he might have something to say

But isn't the cab of the logging truck tilted forward as if it was broken down?

or is that the cab suspension I'm seeing?

Hope he paid for the excess cover on the rental contract.

Maybe, he has the incident on crash cam?

Vic_08 · 25-10-2017 09:51PM

More Roundabout idiots today, this genius was on a mission to ruin someone's day. No audio on the clip but serious tyre screech from the Civic, it's driver had good reactions to avoid a crash.

Yawns · 25-10-2017 10:17PM

**** like that is how I can see some road rage legitimately happening. Like if you had seen the civic driver catch up and drag him out of the car, could you really blame him. Jesus...

It’s a Renault so it’s probably just falling apart

That's one of those situations where if you were the Civic driver you would really question "is this guy really that stupid to cut in front of me instead of using the correct lane?"

inforfun · 26-10-2017 08:23AM

And at the start of the clip that same Bozo changes lanes for no reason at all if you see where he then leaves the roundabout.
Not a single ****ing clue on how to drive but still sitting in 1000+ kilos of metal doing whatever the **** he or she wants.
And judging by all the "sudden" steering that is going on several times, probably busy on a phone in one way or the other as well.

The first in Dun Laoghaire - a somewhat distracted pedestrian... the second is someone in a hurry in Lucan, with a little wheelspin across the traffic island.
