Looks good actually. I would like to see a vid in the nighttime too though.

I wouldn't have stopped at that amber either

Cough!!! waits for all the comments about sitting in the overtaking lane ;-o

Quality looks good. What sort of price range are they?

It's a bus lane on the left, which has a section for left turn only near the lights, so there should be no such comments. :P

It was the section on the N81 toward the Spawell is what I had in mind.

Is the YouTube video representative of the uncompressed video quality?

Thats the problem I have with vids. My cam produces really nice quality clips when played raw and un compressed.

Youtube sucks the life out of them

Russian driving standards are eyewateringly bad! Two crashes, a near miss, lane jumping & going through a red light (is turn right on red legal?) all in less than 40 seconds

tbf most of those people were trying to escape the lunatic in the van. I'd have got myself out of the way as well.

That's the lemming effect in action.
See the same with amber lights.

It looks like they fell off a trailer to me, what ever they are.

If they were dumped I'd have thought they'd be thrown in the ditch.

What is the best format to transfer to youtube and keep 1080p? MIne are getting spoiled in conversion to .avi

For example this cyclists is colour blind. But its all fuzzy on youtube.

I just keep my vids without conversion - simple cut etc. does not require recompression.

I picked two black bags and a large piece of carpet from the overtaking lane on the Dual-Carriageway at Carraroe two weeks ago, someone doesn't bother to secure their rubbish by the looks of it.

He may be colour blind yet you crossed a solid white line surrounding hatched markings. Does that make you outright blind or should we just work with "he without sin" for this one?
