Nice parenting.
Sorry about the rustling noise, the dog was eating a curry cheese chips in the back of the car. (Yes I did order it with no onion.)
Another hour long epic.
Your mother is on TikTok now!
Sent it in to the UK dashcam channel so I assume they lifted it from there.
Cut across my lane then turns right from the left turn lane.
how do you upload a mpeg4 38mb dash cam video ?
You don't - you upload it to youtube
Deleted
If you can make out the reg on the original video I'd be sending that to the garda
No cant see reg , say the other car would have wanted it.
What’s the story with the Dashcam UK page on YouTube stopping posts now for a month
Used to enjoy their weekly Sunday posts
Hardly some sort of legal threats or something?
Think they have some personal issues that crop up every once in a while so don't have time to do the videos. If you go into the community page on the channel sometimes they'll put a note up to say no videos coming
No indicators. Cam lens distorts it, he was actually a lot closer to me than it looks.
Well he wasn't signalling left so...
Eh... 2 sh*te drivers there. 🙂
If he was indicating left he'd be taking the blue line. He took the orange one with no indicators, which you could reasonably expect to mean he intended to take the red line.
Yet he still wasn't indicating - two wrongs in that video
If there was a crash you would be 100% at fault
Had you crashed into him you would be at fault.
Had he crashed into you you would have been at fault.
Flashing indicator light means the bulb is working, nothing else.
I don't think so. I was always taught that if taking the first exit or 3rd on a normal 4 road roundabout you need to be indicating right before you enter. he wasn't indicating at all while taking the 3rd exit. He was in the wrong.
I was going straight across (the approach road bends into the roundabout so it enters straight across rather than a 1-2 o'clock). I indicate after I pass the exit before mine.
"Flashing indicator light means the bulb is working, nothing else."
Nothing was flashing. He didn't indicate. If his indicators weren't working (a safety critical system) how would I be at fault for his failure to maintain his vehicle to a roadworthy state?
You were turning right, staying on R911 would be straight on. But that's irrelevant.
Common sense means you slow down approaching a roundabout and give way to any traffic coming from the right.
Doesnt matter a bit that he didnt indicate. And he was on your right. Youre 100% in the wrong here.
They were on the roundabout before you so they have right of way despite their poor positioning and lack of an indicator.
If his indicators weren't working (a safety critical system)
Indicators are not a safety critical system. They are exactly as they are named… an indicator, to indicate your intentions to other road users, and if your indicators do not work correctly, there are hand/arm gestures a driver can make from within the car to indicate said intentions. But to call indicators a ‘safety critical system’ is wrong.
Whether the other car indicated or not, the camera car is 100% in the wrong here.
Expect the unexpected (especially with a car on a roundabout showing no indicators whatsoever) and the camera car did not do this.
There is no debate here. The car already on the roundabout has right of way. No if's or buts and signalling is irrelevant
It seems that up to about 25 years ago the teaching was that a driver on a roundabout was presumed as a default to be going all the way around a roundabout until they indicated to leave. The instruction to indicate before your turn off in some situations was only implemented subsequently. So there is a significant cohort of drivers still driving under the old method resulting in the outcome here.
But as others have stated bottom line the car on the roundabout has right of way.
I learnt to drive over 40 years ago, that "old method" must have only been taught to people by untrained drivers, it has always been the case that you indicated right if your exit was past the 12 o'clock position as shown in the image a few post back. no indication for those turning right is nearly as bad as indicating right and then left to leave at the 12 o'clock exit, in this situation you don't indicate when joining the roundabout, only at the exit.
And a lot of the drivers just don't give a sh*t. Not a roundabout situation, but this morning the car in front of me didn't move when the light turned green. Turning right after oncoming traffic had cleared, only started indication when they started moving. I suppose that's still an achievement in a Mercedes...
I was thought simply to never trust an indicator.
This has worked perfectly fine for me so far and actually saved me a few times from hitting idiots who indicate and don't what they are indicating
Yeah I cycle across Limerick twice daily, I wouldnt last a week if I used indicators as a sign I should stop or go on roundabouts, Id say the majority of cars these days just dont use them and a significant percentage of the minority that actually use them are using them wrong.
Wasn't stopping for anything.
