Car that had the dashcam is here filmed, somewhat, from another car.

Yep if that Taxi man was reading the road and paying attention like the OP the incident would not have happened!

Some storm fallout. The branches were a lot bigger than they looked so I went around and cleared them off the road.

Obviously it's a nice courtesy to let people out and I encourage where possible but it isn't always necessary.

OP was hardly laying into the horn. You'd swear he was holding it down for 20 seconds. He moved over in good time and wasn't anywhere near the taxi, it wasn't until he's passing the taxi barged his way over and didn't like getting told off for being a wanker. Taxi drivers don't like getting pulled up on any of their wrong doings.

Also telling the OP he should gave have him a bit of space, taxi man had plenty of time for a quick manoeuvre but took too long. Sick of this "we share the road, you should have let him out" mentality anytime someone throws an indicator on. Obviously it's a nice courtesy to let people out and I encourage where possible but it isn't always necessary.

OP I suggest you report that to traffic watch.

Big bus, then an Octavia mostly but can be many others too.

I do seem to attract them.

I have footage I recorded on my phone recently so obviously can't post up here of a older guy who abused me and threatened me.

Story is very long but short version he drove car into side of bus(no damage) just rest it against it, while beeping and flashing, I got to the stop he followed then parked in front got out shouting, took phone out and recorded me, wouldn't let me move, so I ended up getting out and recorded him....

He looked at me once and I never seen someone turn and walk so quick.

He got back in his car and didn't say another word.

I stood between the door and car so they couldn't close it or leave till I moved....

Seriously - expected better from you. Won't tell you the story about the taxi driver trying to run me over very recently while crossing the road

Some of it yes, not all as I would never have any free time filling out constant reports.

I would love to be able to set up a camera but wouldn't be allowed and would get into serious trouble.

There are cameras all over the vehicles though which is great as it always shows the true story.

I've had the wipers pulled off and mirrors damaged, this is on a bus by the way.

In the car I've been rammed off the road by a transit where it pulled me through a red light and he tried to drive off.

I suspect he was reacting to you blowing the horn at him when he had indicated to go round the right-turner and you stopped him doing it instead of allowing him a bit of space. I expect he thought you had deliberately sped up to cut him off. Had you not blown the horn, there would be no road rage.

You would expect a person such as a taxi driver to be able to read the road ahead but they don't tend to do so.

He was a normal taxi driver in that they don't give a fcuk.

Sure earlier on George's St a taxi flew across in front of me doing an illegal right turn in front of a Garda transit connect.

I looked at them and pointed out to him they literally looked away and were in no rush.

Now that shows you how the taxi driver respects the law.

I saw the car turning right ahead, so indicated early, but accelerated into the lane as a car was approaching at pace behind me.
Looks slow, but would have been doing the 50kph limit at the time.

Would be interested to know what people make of it and if they'd do anything about it?

He was giving me plenty of threatening arm waving as he drove past me afterwards...

Not strictly dashcam but close enough, some severe road rage for some unknown reason.
