    From the comments
    The last clip was a KFC drive through, so they tacked on the banned KFC ad for a joke

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    I'm not impressed by the muppet following who is obviously using his phone to film it!

    He is not the only one. The uk vids each and every time have a large collection of people that accelerate into incidents in an attempt to force it to happen. And then to have the neck to post those same videos in the firm belief that they are in the right.

    The Polish and Russian videos usually show the same class of driver smashing the other vehicle off the road.

    Looks like the idiots in the UK are back on the road - and I'm referring to the dash cammers

    Nothing beats the Aussie vids

    my opinion also, a large number of incidents in that video we're 50/50 or avoidable altogether or indeed the cammer was just plain wrong in several.

    Looks like John M is driving a big SUV type, like a BMW X5 or something, so of course, it gives him carte blanche to drive like an absolute bell end.

    There's a lot of angry folk driving around the U.K. with dashcams.....

    Guy at 3:34 too. Obviously the merging BMW should yield, but the cammer knew exactly the situation he was going to cause. It's as if terrible driving is A-OK once you're a shade on the right side of the rules.

    Usually goes along the lines of...

    1. Completely ignore roundabout mini-roundabout / normal traffic flow, in an attempt to get on the right side of another car
    2. Go nuts that the other car didn't give way to traffic on the right
    3. Upload clip
    4. Get likes

    Yes, but at least in Poland that's what they teach you during your drivers training before your driving test (to force your right of way once you have it), while in UK I at least thought people are being taught defensive driving.
    Looking at UK video though it doesn't seem that way.

    Jebus is that the best argument they're kids, I recall heading down steep hills towards traffic on my skateboard as a kid. The horror :eek: I've no time for assholes on two or four wheels or in general for that matter.

    Few minor captures

    1- Overtaking in right turn lane and barging back in to go straight
    2 - Dangerous joining N3
    3- Possible Road rage?

    Rather than use your break pedal and stop for the obstruction in the road you attempted to go into the right-hand turn lane for the other side of road to bypass it...

    To counter here - that was terrible driving by the lorry driver to pull out into on coming traffic like that forcing people to stop rather than waiting for an appropriate gap.

    I'm in no way condoning anyone in that video's behaviour, but I know that junction (between Swords & Malahide), and it's an absolute ba$tard to get out from at times...

    I think most drivers with a bit of experience would cut HGV drivers a lot of slack for moves like that.
    The 'appropriate gap' for him might never occur at busy times.
    Also, people who put dashcam vids up on Youtube with company names in the title, are usually
