14:35 it’s good to see someone highlighting to other motorists they need to be closer to the line and over the sensors for the lights to pick them up, I have done it a few times and so many people don’t understand that’s how traffic lights work
@knight2425 it seems to be a thing lately, I'm in Brisbane and see it at least once a day driving around, it mystifies me as to how people could be unaware of this, and besides that what would motivate them to sit a car length or more back from the line regardless!!
I've seen the same thing so many times too, people parking way back from the sensors, and the lights not changing because of it. I know that some drivers are extra cautious at traffic lights, and I get that. but perhaps there needs to be some ads on TV perhaps to help educate drivers that dont know you need over the sensors for the lights to work.
I'm all for people having access to transport options so they can maintain independence, but those mobility scooters constantly showing up on roads are a ticking time bomb - especially when you consider the type of drivers you witness in other dash cam clips...
A relative of mine still tells the story of the time, about twenty years ago, he saw a mobility scooter and it's rider scattered all over the road. Idk why they insist on riding on the road, but the ones that do usually have an Aussie flag hanging off their scooter. Everyone sort of feels guilty about getting cranky at them and just sucks it up 😂
@@doctorbohr1585 "Idk why they insist on riding on the road" As someone who has a younger brother who is in an electric wheel chair (muscular atrophy), I might be able to shed some light on that.

They are, (well in my state anyway), considered a motor vehicle, they require registration, and the occupant can be done for DUI if found over the limit, even on the footpath.

You can even tell how fast he was going before he entered the roundabout without any indication of slowing down or stopping and also not giving way to that black SUV to his right.
You can also see that the Cruiser failed to giveway to the car coming around the round about. Hopefully the cammer gave the footage to the Jazz driver, otherwise these type of accidents are notoriously hard to prove fault.

I have to agree. Even if he can make the argument that the beemer had a little more room to shimmy over, the DC clearly had a space to avert all the risk and make everyone's day a little easier and chose to dive into a shitty situation anyway. Not a fan.
It's actually unlawful to hold up a tradie rushing to carry out his shoddy work and rip off the client as quickly as possible. It's the Australian thing to do and the first thing you learn at trade school.
To the guy on the motorbike, THANK YOU, you legend. I’ll never understand why people don’t pull up to the white line these days and trigger the sensor for the light change. I notice it a LOT here in QLD and have no idea why they have been taught this! 🎉
I've seen it a lot here in South Australia as well. some drivers are just simply unaware there are sensors in the road that trigger the traffic lights. as I mentioned in another comment, perhaps they need to have series of ads on TV to educate people about it.
@@catey62I'm tall even with my seat lowered all the way down so some intersections i can't see the traffic lights, even a bit before the white line. However, I'm certainly not lazy enough to not move my head so I can see the traffic lights. I'm sure people have all sorts of excuses, nobody cares about their excuses, its a privilege to drive.
It’s simple, people don’t know where their vehicle is in relation to their visibility. People think that once the line disappears from their sight, they are there but they actually not even close. I taught my friend’s son to drive and the first thing I did was park the car in a parking spot. I had him sit in the driver’s seat and look at what lines he can see and then get out to see where the car is in relation to those lines. Then I had him pull into another parking spot while I guided from outside. I told him to give me a thumbs up once the front line disappeared and then I guided him so the wheels touched the front line. That one was simply a way of determining how much farther he had to go to get to the stop line at traffic lights. I was taught the same way many years ago and I’m so thankful for it. I wanted to turn right into the shops one day but there was a line up all the way back to the previous set of lights. Knowing the timing of the right turn cycle, it was going to take at least 3 cycles to get through so I went up the road to another car park, turned around and turned left into the shops. That’s when I saw the lights completely skip the right arrow cycle and noticed the driver at the front was too far back. So glad I went around. I watched from the shop and the guy behind her still waited until after another skipped cycle before getting out and moving her forward! The cashier said the lady had been there for nearly 10 minutes!
14:25... This one is absolutely amazing how people do not understand how traffic lights work. People sit so far back from the front line that the vehicle does not go over the magnetic loop under the road which lets the intersection PLC know that a vehicle is waiting.. They would have sat there for eternity. The next clip shows an older road with the loops cut into it. Look to the left and down and you will see the square impression on the road...
A lot of them are Migrants with International licenses ie are shit drivers back home where there are no rules . The other half are drug couriers, stolen and Feral rides
9:40. Probably the yellow car entered the roundabout first but, old mate in the Cruiser should be in trouble for having too many gas bottles on his tray. You can only carry two 45kg gas bottles. Any more and you need full gates, Flammable Gas 2 diamonds on the front and back, a fire extinguisher, relevant PPE.
What could go wrong......oh wait.... Once you.ve seen a family in a station wagon on French roads with 2x 45kg LPG bottles on the roof rack and a clear hose running down the driver's A pillar to take the gas to the engine bay.....you accept the French reasoning that in a crash both those dangerous bottles will leave the immediate scene and not cause any problems.... Much like those bottles free floating on the ute deck,,,,
@@tally5k339Its usually SUV, they never adjusted their driving space awareness having the hood higher. That also explains why a lot of these clowns parallel park leaving a massive gap with car in front... You can give them as much driving assists but it won't fix this.
this week's compilation has made me violently angry. Some of these people should forfeit their right to exist in public spaces and use our healthcare system
So many people don't realise that the rule is "you must give way to anyone already in the roundabout". That whole "give way to your right" rule doesn't actually exist.
@@mattyb.5628 You do need to give way to your right and move into the round a bout if it's safe and non-obstructive to the flow of traffic around it.

@@loblolly777 - even if he got there first, there’s be a bees dick in it, but I’d love to hear his argument that he was driving with due care and attention… not a chance he’s being covered if his insurer sees that footage.
There's more to this story, DC owner was being a dick and over took 3 trucks while purposely not allowing the Ute to merge from the filter lane. The Ute driver got upset and started to break check the DC owner forcing them to play a dangerous game of cat and mouse through the lanes while trying to break check the DC owner. DC owner cut out the part where he did that silly move to make it seem like he was a victim and not the one who started it. Both drivers were the idiots here.
True. That could have easily been avoided though if the Jazz didn't drive at 10km/h through the roundabout. As busy roundabouts like that, once you decide to go... accelerate!
@@MeppyMan I agree the ute was at fault, I'm simply saying that if the Jazz driver had've accelerated like most people they might have been out of the ute's way and avoided the crash.
@@alaindelon5398 Hopefully people are learning. So many times I have been about to enter a roundabout first, but some dickhead is flying from my right. In that moment, I know I am in the right, but it won't be much consolation as I will be the one getting t-boned, not him.
9:43 if you look closely at when this black 4 x 4 Ute enters the roundabout, he had a dark car already on the roundabout. He never waited, as he should of, he just barged in, In front of this car, subsequently hitting the lime green number. This was NOT the green car’s fault ~~ I hope she was not charged ! Bloody Ute drivers ! Same thing happens at 16:30, clearly this red car enters the roundabout before the moron on he right hurriedly hits him ~~ hope they both had dc as some of us don’t have them and need them for proof ! xoxox
All these tons of videos every week are a true reflection of increasing lawlessness and absolute lack of fear of any consequences in this country - across all the states. And these are just the ones that get caught on dashcams and get submitted to this channel and gets included by the editors. There are hundreds and hundreds that we all witness but do not get caught on dashcam or get submitted. It is getting really scary on our roads. Two very dangerous set of road users and both equally dangerous - confused souls and the arrogant don’t give an F bogans!
You know 12:04 is a passenger service driver, who thinks he drives Kit of Knight Rider when he bought a Camry. Unfortunately, it just missed it by inches or could check whether the barrier was really made by concrete or not...🤣
The one with the guy on the bike getting the car to pull onto the sensor - I see people do that all the time. One the other day you could clearly see where the road had been dug up around the sensor but they’re just sitting back behind it like idiots
12:02 i dont even blame the dude for doing what he did. No one ever merges onto the freeway correctly, everyone seems to leave getting to the speed limit at the last second. Either you get to the speed limit well before the merging lines or don't drive on the freeway. Merging onto the freeway well below the posted limit eg. merging at 70 in a 100, is just a dangerous.
While I agree about the slow merging. That’s not the solution. Entitlement is a bad headspace to have when driving. He nearly caused an accident, and I’d those blue and reds were for him then he’s going to wish he had waited.
"i dont even blame the dude for doing what he did" - well you should. That driver was a selfish impatient idiot. Merging at 65 instead of 80 is far less dangerous than what that driver did.
At 1:18 we have another twit who was in a big hurry but still had enough time to stop in the middle of a freeway to teach the slow poke in the right lane a lesson. SMH.
Most people don't even seem to think keep left unless overtaking law is a thing any more. And when you're up their ass or doing 3 lane overtaking manouvers to get past them, they start saying "fucking wanker".
These people don't learn, they are entitled morons who are a danger to society. Sometimes you need to show them, since telling them the law isn't good enough
After watching this channel for 7 years, I am starting to not mind the geriatrics riding around in mobility scooters as at least they're not driving a real car that can kill people. But on a serious note, we have really f***ed up urban planning and public transport design & investment when most people need a car to get around.
exactly! there's no reason to get angry at people using a vital (and often, their only) mode of transport on public roads when it's because the infrastructure isn't built for them to be using dedicated pedestrian/bike paths
14:23 In Annerley (Burger King lights) I was behind a right turning car who sat through two green lights. I got out and asked them to cross the white line next green so we are not sitting there all night. The driver was a uniformed policeman who told me "I will go when it's safe" but credit he didn't give me a BS fine.
14:25 What is with this ever increasing tendency of drivers to stop a car length or more before the white line at traffic lights? It's like they are paranoid about another driver looking sideways at them?
yes! it is truly bizarre, I'm noticing that more and more people are stopping way back from the line, for no apparent reason other than the voices in their head told them to!
Or a "Perpetually Offended" pedestrian getting "triggered" by being too close to the crosswalk and invading their "personal space" (seen it happen multiple times) 🥸
14:50, had to do that one myself a few times. The car driver just doesn't seem to understand where the front of their vehicle is, nor how traffic lights work.
I haven't travelled along Cartwright Ave, off Hoxton Park Rd, 19:03, since about 2006, I see nothing has changed with that stupid merge. Always that gronk trying to get in front and cut off someone. Yes in my young P plate days in the 90s, I too was that gronk at times.
I have never understood people stopping people from merging. People seem to take it personally when others change lanes, especially when highways merge and you have 200m to make your way across 3 lanes in peak hour traffic. I always let people in. The best is when people stop tou merging left to the exit only to merge right straight afterwards.
I always thought it was because people have fragile egos and massive entitlement. The only time they actually get to be in control of something in their lives is when they’re driving, so they get offended at basic traffic courtesy.
Whatever happened he can throw that helmet away. There are stress cracks from just falling off the bike and hitting the ground which could cause the helmet to collapse when it is really needed....
8:27 Considering some of these videos I'm a bit surprised there isn't a head in it. 14:46 How do people have a licence and don't know that the sensors are under the road next to the stop line?
19:15. That's nice of him to abruptly stop in front of you so that he can show you his license plate. I hope you reported his arse😂😂😂😂 PS: Only a small-tilly man act like this🤭
Rule #1 of Australian driving: the right lane is only for ute drivers to go triple the speed limit and tailgate anything in front of them, while being in the slowest class of vehicle on the road with generally bad braking performance. Turning right? Congestion? Overtaking? It doesn't matter. Their commute is above all else!
3:34... Love how the drongo's turn from the left lane into the right lane as if driving a semi and failing to give way at the same time... SOOO many wanna be drivers do this... No wonder that they are perplexed with roundabouts..
I'm fed up with this sloppy behaviour at slip lanes too. So many drivers are just too inattentive to turn their wheel sufficiently, so they end up straddling both lanes and then waft insensibly over to the right lane at their leisure. If they give way to oncoming traffic in the process it's merely a bonus.
1:15, another 'P' plater that thinks they will respawn after they become a red smudge on the road!! Did not even seem to be aware of the car at all, being oblivious on a bike leads to oblivion.
16:25 i know the car thats slow in the right lane is a real dick move, but shining bright white lights directly in the drivers face is so dangerous if it had caused an accident with injury old mate in the ute is done the flash from behinf was enough
14:25 I hate being at the front at the lights on a bike. The amount of times Ive had to wait because i dont get picked up by the sensors is insane. im sure theres a trick to it but god damn. probably just scoot forward until the car behind can activate it
Hey some automatic exit gates use the same principal. If you happen to have a steel road sign cunningly placed outside the gate you can fling it and skate the sign over the sensor and voila...the secure gate is now open...to enter the secure card access only....yard. The looks of chagrin on the faces of the big wigs when shown this trick while they were checking "security" 😁😁
I often stop past the line and wave the car behind me forward. Many lights have trouble detecting bicycles even though I make sure I zig-zag cross the sensors
Technically that’s a situation where you can legally use the horn. To alert other drivers of danger. I don’t have any data to back up if it’s a good idea or not in those situations. If I hear someone honking I get more alert so maybe it’s ok?
I noticed the over use of the horn in a lot of these clips. They are quicker with the horn than the brakes. And honking the horn at someone approaching head on at highway speeds wont have much effect. Not much defensive driving being done by the DC owners
It's more to alert oncoming drivers that something is happening ahead. I have seen some clips where people honk at someone pulling out, and it causes the driver to stop and actually causes a collision. Almost always useless IMHO, though I did use it the other day when I saw two old fogies about to reverse into each other at the shop.
wow.! those shenanigans at @1:00 should be passed onto inspector plod . That stretch of the Monash fwy is already quite dangerous ; to force someone to come to a complete stop is just madness.
I had someone pull out directly in front of me just last night, I honked (as you do) and then she just drove half in the bike/parking lane and half in front of me. I’m a learner and I go for my ps next week. My words to my partner “this is why I don’t want my license”
What is the deal with people like the car at 7:06 who feel the need to leave an entire car length or more between them and the car in front. Car at 7:35 missed a golden opportunity to assist enhancement of the gene pool
I think naming and shaming are more detrimental to a driver and/or his company. I have a saying “do the right thing by me ….. I tell everyone ~~ do the wrong thing by me …. I tell everyone !” Works for me. I once had my uninsured car stolen (my husband had been I’ll and passed away, I had little money for insurance), when 8t came to court, I was told there would be no money coming from the two grubs that had stolen my vehicle. I was so upset, the next time we went to court, I took a camera, and literally chased these rotten thieves down the street ti get their photos. I posted them all over the place around my area. I don’t honestly know if it did any good, but it made me feel so much bette ! Cheers. A. xoxox

Yep DC definitely at fault and pure stupidity to think they weren’t.
same lol
100% mate. he could clearly see 2 cars can't fit and yet chose to stick his nose in there anyway.
I have to agree. Even if he can make the argument that the beemer had a little more room to shimmy over, the DC clearly had a space to avert all the risk and make everyone's day a little easier and chose to dive into a shitty situation anyway.
Not a fan.
It's actually unlawful to hold up a tradie rushing to carry out his shoddy work and rip off the client as quickly as possible. It's the Australian thing to do and the first thing you learn at trade school.
Good one! 👍

20:17 What on earth was the rocket surgeon in the camera car thinking?
To the guy on the motorbike, THANK YOU, you legend. I’ll never understand why people don’t pull up to the white line these days and trigger the sensor for the light change.
I notice it a LOT here in QLD and have no idea why they have been taught this! 🎉
I've seen it a lot here in South Australia as well. some drivers are just simply unaware there are sensors in the road that trigger the traffic lights. as I mentioned in another comment, perhaps they need to have series of ads on TV to educate people about it.
@@catey62I'm tall even with my seat lowered all the way down so some intersections i can't see the traffic lights, even a bit before the white line. However, I'm certainly not lazy enough to not move my head so I can see the traffic lights.
I'm sure people have all sorts of excuses, nobody cares about their excuses, its a privilege to drive.
It’s simple, people don’t know where their vehicle is in relation to their visibility. People think that once the line disappears from their sight, they are there but they actually not even close.
I taught my friend’s son to drive and the first thing I did was park the car in a parking spot. I had him sit in the driver’s seat and look at what lines he can see and then get out to see where the car is in relation to those lines. Then I had him pull into another parking spot while I guided from outside. I told him to give me a thumbs up once the front line disappeared and then I guided him so the wheels touched the front line. That one was simply a way of determining how much farther he had to go to get to the stop line at traffic lights.
I was taught the same way many years ago and I’m so thankful for it. I wanted to turn right into the shops one day but there was a line up all the way back to the previous set of lights. Knowing the timing of the right turn cycle, it was going to take at least 3 cycles to get through so I went up the road to another car park, turned around and turned left into the shops. That’s when I saw the lights completely skip the right arrow cycle and noticed the driver at the front was too far back. So glad I went around. I watched from the shop and the guy behind her still waited until after another skipped cycle before getting out and moving her forward! The cashier said the lady had been there for nearly 10 minutes!
14:25... This one is absolutely amazing how people do not understand how traffic lights work. People sit so far back from the front line that the vehicle does not go over the magnetic loop under the road which lets the intersection PLC know that a vehicle is waiting.. They would have sat there for eternity. The next clip shows an older road with the loops cut into it. Look to the left and down and you will see the square impression on the road...
How some people in Aussie get/have/keep a licence given they're clearly bereft of a BRAIN is astonishing and terrifying.
A lot of them are Migrants with International licenses ie are shit drivers back home where there are no rules . The other half are drug couriers, stolen and Feral rides
At LEAST you should have a driving test once every election cycle, 'term'.
No matter how many times you test people doesn't change the fact that people who know nothing about it design the test
Aus is a place Aussie is a person.
Australia is like the Russia of the west. Big, empty, couple of cities with people who talk funny and can't drive for shit.
please be careful out there people there are so many people that think they can do whatever they want with no regard for the rules of the road
A lot of these clips fall under the category of "How Dare Someone Else Use My Road?"
9:40. Probably the yellow car entered the roundabout first but, old mate in the Cruiser should be in trouble for having too many gas bottles on his tray. You can only carry two 45kg gas bottles. Any more and you need full gates, Flammable Gas 2 diamonds on the front and back, a fire extinguisher, relevant PPE.
What could go wrong......oh wait....
Once you.ve seen a family in a station wagon on French roads with 2x 45kg LPG bottles on the roof rack and a clear hose running down the driver's A pillar to take the gas to the engine bay.....you accept the French reasoning that in a crash both those dangerous bottles will leave the immediate scene and not cause any problems....
Much like those bottles free floating on the ute deck,,,,

That motorcyclist was a champion. There seems to be a worrying trend in the amount of people that stop well short of where they should
@@tally5k339Its usually SUV, they never adjusted their driving space awareness having the hood higher.
That also explains why a lot of these clowns parallel park leaving a massive gap with car in front... You can give them as much driving assists but it won't fix this.

I would love to see the face of the Ute driver at 9:40 when his claim is denied… 😂
So many people don't realise that the rule is "you must give way to anyone already in the roundabout". That whole "give way to your right" rule doesn't actually exist.
@@mattyb.5628 You do need to give way to your right and move into the round a bout if it's safe and non-obstructive to the flow of traffic around it. If someone flys through giveaway sign with a car ahead already in the round a bout like it looks like this guy did, they'll be in trouble (possibly like the ute driver here)
Might be a close run thing, but pretty sure that the ute driver got there first.

There's more to this story, DC owner was being a dick and over took 3 trucks while purposely not allowing the Ute to merge from the filter lane. The Ute driver got upset and started to break check the DC owner forcing them to play a dangerous game of cat and mouse through the lanes while trying to break check the DC owner. DC owner cut out the part where he did that silly move to make it seem like he was a victim and not the one who started it. Both drivers were the idiots here.
At least this week we have some DC owners who know hot apply both the horn and the brakes.
9:38 yellow car had ROW as it entered the roundabout first - by a mile.
Yeah the ute should have stopped for the other car
True. That could have easily been avoided though if the Jazz didn't drive at 10km/h through the roundabout. As busy roundabouts like that, once you decide to go... accelerate!
@@_n_d_yeah much safer to drive at 60 like the Ute… oh wait.
@@MeppyMan I agree the ute was at fault, I'm simply saying that if the Jazz driver had've accelerated like most people they might have been out of the ute's way and avoided the crash.
@@alaindelon5398 Hopefully people are learning. So many times I have been about to enter a roundabout first, but some dickhead is flying from my right. In that moment, I know I am in the right, but it won't be much consolation as I will be the one getting t-boned, not him.
9:43 if you look closely at when this black 4 x 4 Ute enters the roundabout, he had a dark car already on the roundabout. He never waited, as he should of, he just barged in, In front of this car, subsequently hitting the lime green number. This was NOT the green car’s fault ~~ I hope she was not charged ! Bloody Ute drivers !
Same thing happens at 16:30, clearly this red car enters the roundabout before the moron on he right hurriedly hits him ~~ hope they both had dc as some of us don’t have them and need them for proof ! xoxox
Cops turn up and see how many gas bottles he has on the tray and he’s going to have more than a bingle to worry about!
All these tons of videos every week are a true reflection of increasing lawlessness and absolute lack of fear of any consequences in this country - across all the states. And these are just the ones that get caught on dashcams and get submitted to this channel and gets included by the editors. There are hundreds and hundreds that we all witness but do not get caught on dashcam or get submitted. It is getting really scary on our roads. Two very dangerous set of road users and both equally dangerous - confused souls and the arrogant don’t give an F bogans!
Yes, because it is way easier and profitable to stick cameras everywhere and mail out fines than it is to actually police the roads with patrol cars.

It is a shame we can't stop immature idiots from being allowed to drive
It doesn't matter what country you watch dashcams for, you'd see pretty much the same type of people regardless
The one with the guy on the bike getting the car to pull onto the sensor - I see people do that all the time. One the other day you could clearly see where the road had been dug up around the sensor but they’re just sitting back behind it like idiots
The only time a dc owner hasnt used their horn.
A lot of people presume that traffic lights are on timers, and don't take actual traffic flows into account. These people are idiots.
6:33 didn't realize boats could break traction 😂😂
12:02 i dont even blame the dude for doing what he did. No one ever merges onto the freeway correctly, everyone seems to leave getting to the speed limit at the last second. Either you get to the speed limit well before the merging lines or don't drive on the freeway. Merging onto the freeway well below the posted limit eg. merging at 70 in a 100, is just a dangerous.
Nothing worse then people just cruising on to the freeway. Floor it bruh, get to speed. Match the high way speed.
While I agree about the slow merging. That’s not the solution. Entitlement is a bad headspace to have when driving. He nearly caused an accident, and I’d those blue and reds were for him then he’s going to wish he had waited.
"i dont even blame the dude for doing what he did" - well you should. That driver was a selfish impatient idiot. Merging at 65 instead of 80 is far less dangerous than what that driver did.
@@FTKSoky But be prepared to stop if there is traffic on the freeway.
OMG 14:24 the move up to the line. How many times i have had to do this.
00:17 Brake checking like that on the highway is attempted murder, no less, not just for the cammer, but for all other drivers around.
The Camry driver at 11:18 had his target all lined up; he was about to lead it beautifully, then he whimped out.
16:18 The red car is actually in the clear here, they were in the roundabout first.
Some bad ones this week but also some really good driving from some of the camera cars this time.
At 1:18 we have another twit who was in a big hurry but still had enough time to stop in the middle of a freeway to teach the slow poke in the right lane a lesson. SMH.
I'd like to see what happened before the clip. The cammer was already calling the other driver a wanker so something happened before what we saw.
@@JohnJ469 Every sign that the wanker in the ute was tailgating.
Most people don't even seem to think keep left unless overtaking law is a thing any more. And when you're up their ass or doing 3 lane overtaking manouvers to get past them, they start saying "fucking wanker".
These people don't learn, they are entitled morons who are a danger to society. Sometimes you need to show them, since telling them the law isn't good enough
@@TwistyMcNuts KEEP LEFT! You mean!
After watching this channel for 7 years, I am starting to not mind the geriatrics riding around in mobility scooters as at least they're not driving a real car that can kill people.
But on a serious note, we have really f***ed up urban planning and public transport design & investment when most people need a car to get around.
exactly! there's no reason to get angry at people using a vital (and often, their only) mode of transport on public roads when it's because the infrastructure isn't built for them to be using dedicated pedestrian/bike paths
@@Ellisian yup! And people think that disability and immobility are things that happens to other people, until it happens to them.
Yes. Liberal and Labor have completely f***ed up urban planning and public transport and we keep voting them back in to do more of it.

@@Ellisian LOL, so now you want another path solely for mobility scooters?

There are those who don't know the road rules and those who deliberately ignore them.

And a lot of them are here in the comments
14:23 In Annerley (Burger King lights) I was behind a right turning car who sat through two green lights. I got out and asked them to cross the white line next green so we are not sitting there all night. The driver was a uniformed policeman who told me "I will go when it's safe" but credit he didn't give me a BS fine.
14:24 my pet hate: wallys that stop a full car length or more back from the light so the sensors aren't triggered ... seeing a lot more of it lately!?
So many familiar locations this week yet so few surprises....
14:25 What is with this ever increasing tendency of drivers to stop a car length or more before the white line at traffic lights? It's like they are paranoid about another driver looking sideways at them?
yes! it is truly bizarre, I'm noticing that more and more people are stopping way back from the line, for no apparent reason other than the voices in their head told them to!
Or a "Perpetually Offended" pedestrian getting "triggered" by being too close to the crosswalk and invading their "personal space" (seen it happen multiple times) 🥸
3:44.. Wow the old Colingwood at Liverpool, bet those boys were there for something other than the cold beer..
14:50, had to do that one myself a few times. The car driver just doesn't seem to understand where the front of their vehicle is, nor how traffic lights work.
Perhaps they need to educate people via ads on TV about it, and also when younger people sit for their L's as well.
@@catey62 yeah, i've never seen it advertised. i don't know why anyone's surprised more people don't know.
I haven't travelled along Cartwright Ave, off Hoxton Park Rd, 19:03, since about 2006, I see nothing has changed with that stupid merge. Always that gronk trying to get in front and cut off someone. Yes in my young P plate days in the 90s, I too was that gronk at times.
I have never understood people stopping people from merging. People seem to take it personally when others change lanes, especially when highways merge and you have 200m to make your way across 3 lanes in peak hour traffic.
I always let people in. The best is when people stop tou merging left to the exit only to merge right straight afterwards.
I always thought it was because people have fragile egos and massive entitlement. The only time they actually get to be in control of something in their lives is when they’re driving, so they get offended at basic traffic courtesy.
9:37 is a good one. Most would probably say the yellow car is at fault, but watch carefully to see who entered the roundabout first.
saw that too. wonder if the yellow car ever knows they didn't do anything wrong.
Anyone else wonder if there was a head inside the motorbike helmet like Monty Python?
Whatever happened he can throw that helmet away.
There are stress cracks from just falling off the bike and hitting the ground which could cause the helmet to collapse when it is really needed....
This is Cundalini.Cundalini wants his head back.

But I'm legit addicted! 😂
8:27 Considering some of these videos I'm a bit surprised there isn't a head in it.
14:46 How do people have a licence and don't know that the sensors are under the road next to the stop line?
Lack of edjumication or from the outback (Australia or another country) where sensors are not a happening thing???
is it taught during driver training? it wasn't part of mine, and i've never seen/heard anyone talking about it.

Nervous reaction.....fizzing at the bung with NOT alright....
Rule #1 of Australian driving: the right lane is only for ute drivers to go triple the speed limit and tailgate anything in front of them, while being in the slowest class of vehicle on the road with generally bad braking performance. Turning right? Congestion? Overtaking? It doesn't matter. Their commute is above all else!
3:34... Love how the drongo's turn from the left lane into the right lane as if driving a semi and failing to give way at the same time... SOOO many wanna be drivers do this...
No wonder that they are perplexed with roundabouts..
@@johnnichol9412 That's what @The_Pub is saying.
I'm fed up with this sloppy behaviour at slip lanes too. So many drivers are just too inattentive to turn their wheel sufficiently, so they end up straddling both lanes and then waft insensibly over to the right lane at their leisure. If they give way to oncoming traffic in the process it's merely a bonus.
methed up tradies in utes do the darndest things

A golden opportunity missed, d'oh!

Did not even seem to be aware of the car at all, being oblivious on a bike leads to oblivion.
16:25 i know the car thats slow in the right lane is a real dick move, but shining bright white lights directly in the drivers face is so dangerous if it had caused an accident with injury old mate in the ute is done the flash from behinf was enough
14:25 I hate being at the front at the lights on a bike. The amount of times Ive had to wait because i dont get picked up by the sensors is insane. im sure theres a trick to it but god damn. probably just scoot forward until the car behind can activate it
Try putting the stand down briefly and please report back.
Get your riding boots heel plated and stomp them down petulantly on the ground where you think the sensor might be???
Hey some automatic exit gates use the same principal.
If you happen to have a steel road sign cunningly placed outside the gate you can fling it and skate the sign over the sensor and voila...the secure gate is now open...to enter the secure card access only....yard.
The looks of chagrin on the faces of the big wigs when shown this trick while they were checking "security" 😁😁
I often stop past the line and wave the car behind me forward. Many lights have trouble detecting bicycles even though I make sure I zig-zag cross the sensors
Sometimes they just need adjusting. If they don’t sense your bike report it to the RTA (or equivalent) and they should fix it.
2:26 Book a room with a double bed fellas.
People that beep the horn when they're nowhere near whatever's happening, drawing people's attention away from where they should be looking. Good job.
Technically that’s a situation where you can legally use the horn. To alert other drivers of danger.
I don’t have any data to back up if it’s a good idea or not in those situations. If I hear someone honking I get more alert so maybe it’s ok?
I noticed the over use of the horn in a lot of these clips. They are quicker with the horn than the brakes.
And honking the horn at someone approaching head on at highway speeds wont have much effect.
Not much defensive driving being done by the DC owners
It's more to alert oncoming drivers that something is happening ahead.
I have seen some clips where people honk at someone pulling out, and it causes the driver to stop and actually causes a collision.
Almost always useless IMHO, though I did use it the other day when I saw two old fogies about to reverse into each other at the shop.
People pretending not to look whole crossing the road + People pretending not to look at pedestrians = karma

Close run thing, but it might be the ute at fault, as the green car may have entered the roundabout first.
I had someone pull out directly in front of me just last night, I honked (as you do) and then she just drove half in the bike/parking lane and half in front of me. I’m a learner and I go for my ps next week. My words to my partner “this is why I don’t want my license”

Give the person at 4:27 a fair go, it was obvious the ground was lava and they had to avoid just that particular bit.
ALWAYS look for cars when crossing the road, doesn't matter if you're not at fault, you'll be the one that gets fucked up...
People like that don't care. They're like "Whatever, they'll stop for me". And half of today's cars would stop themselves for him anyway.
"That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright. That's alright."
19:12 Why would someone in a ute displaying their business name (in this case Australian Soil & Concrete Testing) risk being named and shamed?
There ARE some DHs around, you know....
I think naming and shaming are more detrimental to a driver and/or his company. I have a saying “do the right thing by me ….. I tell everyone ~~ do the wrong thing by me …. I tell everyone !” Works for me. I once had my uninsured car stolen (my husband had been I’ll and passed away, I had little money for insurance), when 8t came to court, I was told there would be no money coming from the two grubs that had stolen my vehicle. I was so upset, the next time we went to court, I took a camera, and literally chased these rotten thieves down the street ti get their photos. I posted them all over the place around my area. I don’t honestly know if it did any good, but it made me feel so much bette ! Cheers. A. xoxox
We didn't see what happened BEFORE the bit of the video submitted... Not that Australian Soil & Concrete Testing's reaction is justified.
