Solid White Line, Built-up area and a pedestrian at a junction who has right of way. Green light means you can proceed with caution at a junction/crossing.

Forgot to put a

Having a white van is like being a legend - you can do whatever you want.

Stop perpetuating this rubbish!

It doesn't matter if you have 4wd, you are NO better off on ice than a (front wheel) 2wd! ice is ice is ice!!

I just wanted to clarify that you are no better off, at all .

The only, and I really mean the ONLY benefit 4wd or awd provides is where you need to set off from a stand still BUT;

Indeed - all cars are capable of driving in snow and ice if driven correctly, however Ireland does not have driver training for these conditions the way they do in Scandinavian countries.

Don't have it in Wisconsin either apparently

glad to see that you were paying attention

4wd may give you some help setting off from a stand still, but it doesn't give you any safety benefit at all when moving, and therefore it's not an excuse to thinking you're better off in 4wd on icy roads (see the three bullet points in previous post). Thanks for bringing that up, hope I clarified that okay.

PS, @ Mycroft : sorry if that's what you meant in your post saying that you're not much better off, I just wanted to clarify that you are no better off, at all - and that if you're driving a jeep you have to be even more careful.[/QUOTE]

Yea, that's what I meant. If your going to slip, it matters not how many wheels you have. Should word it better the next time.

The traffic camera that keeps on giving.
Interesting that none of the truck drivers were caught up in it, more experience and defensive driving I suppose.
Crazy how the goup of people on the right stayed around chatting even though cars were ploughing into the trees beside them.

It was the speeding nutjobs who thought that bad weather does not affect them that caused most of the trouble.

Surprised none of them were killed, but you do see them scatter at one point as another speeding gobsh¡te ploughs through the cars and more end up in the trees.

It looks like the outside lane was closed off, without any warning.

Look out for the guy losing his fridge at 4.02

Can I make a suggestion that we stop linking Russian compilations on YouTube in this thread. I like this thread for the local content and discussions around the ROTR.

We're all capable of searching YouTube to get our fix of Russian madness.

Specifically the compilations, 5 minutes of 3 second clips is unwatchable imho. One or two well really good (bad) ones would be OK.

When the highlight is a fridge falling off a car we don't need to go to Russia, I had to dodge a mattress on the N25 last week (the inside lane got the bed), sorry no video.

Yes, but the Russian guy did get one.
Maybe there could be a Crazy Ivan thread. I need crazy Russians!

Aestivalis

I honestly havent a clue when it comes to video editing, and whatever way I cut the clip it made the quality a lot worse so apologies.

Its a bit hard to see, but watch the moped on the right. It pulls out half way across the road without realising I'm on coming, so he does a 180 and goes back into the hard shoulder.

In his defence, the sun was directly behind me and was blinding. At least I had my lights on, and he had a hi-viz jacket on so I saw him in plenty of time. A few more seconds could have been a different story.

Aestivalis

Ah lads. They quality really is dire on that, so watch in fullscreen or something.

What video editors do you use?

edit: for anybody who cant see, he pulls out behind the car that passes me.

joujoujou

Virtualdub.

I'd say quality depends on what you set in program.

Watch the van on the outside lane. Seen this guy earlier tonight coming off the M50 at Blanch, seriously I thought he would hit either the car or the bollards. It was very close

Didn't really see much in that video, but i'll take your word for it as that exit is where i have seen the majority of idiotic moves being performed.

soups05
