    I love how quick you are, responding to the cyclist. Very funny. Years of motoring bitter experience I daresay. I watch your videos and usual think I am a bit more chilled and tolerant but I do see a change when I'm behind the wheel. I get much more animated, and critical of other road users. Interesting.

    I think that a few years ago driving used to be enjoyable but recently all that has changed. People seem to have no patience, no tolerance, no politeness and they seem to have a sense of entitlement that makes them better than other road users. I don't know why this is really but would guess that easy access to vehicle finance, social media and people just not giving a toss for others would be the main causes.

    After watching your videos of all the roundabout failures, one of the few roundabouts close to my home in the USA has been getting scrutiny every time I use it. It only has 2 lanes going round, but lane discipline has been very good, but NO ONE uses an indicator, ever. I always do, after having seen so many roundabout videos, so I hope it will catch on!

    On the subject of people no waving thank you, some people prefer to focus on not hitting anything rather than divide their attention waving. I know I rarely do it because I'm focusing on what I'm doing. On the flipside I don't expect people to thank me if I'm being courteous.

    • @thelondondashcam

      You have seen my videos haven’t you ? These drivers can’t drive very well without saying thank you never mind saying thank you. And it’s not about expecting a thank you it’s just about having good manners, don’t know why, but people seem to think that is a bad thing saying thank you.

    I don't agree with you on the clip at 7:41 - doesn't matter if he was in his van or not, your side of the road was obstructed and you weren't able to clear in time without impeding the car coming in the opposite direction, so you should've held back.

    • @thelondondashcam
      @thelondondashcam  ปีที่แล้ว

    It used to be that drivers had brains still encased in their skulls. Today, too many are sitting on their brains and driving the same. It's no longer being a courteous driver, but drivers who only care about themselves. No preplanning so they are in the correct lane to make a turn or take an exit. Nope, it's 'get out of my way I need this turn or exit'.

  • @iallso1

    Where you dropped off in Epsom may not have been on yellow lines, but it did seem to be across the area designated for pedestrians to cross, as indicated by the drop downs and the textured floor to help the visually impaired.
    For me the yellow lines should be extended across the crossing and where the two vans were parked. Maybe where the two vans are should be designated as a drop-off pick-up area, maybe with a P3 limit.

As much as I hate to admit it, I've closed it down before now, which is wrong and dangerous, but it's damned satisfying when the would be thief has to continue to the next exit, and lose 15 minutes for the sake of trying to gain seconds.

    • @ThePhoenix198
      @ThePhoenix198 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not familar with the roundabout in question, but it looks like it is a four-arm roundabout so entering it while signalling right gives the impression that you are going further round it than is your intention. While this gives white van man no excuse whatsoever, it could lead the vehicle in the left-hand lane beside wvm and (presumably) turning left to pull out in front of you.

    • @traveller5212
      @traveller5212 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a solution to lane hogging. What needs to be done is to remove all but one lane, that will then satisfy the complainers, they that use the roads as race tracks, and swerve in and out. The only problem is that having but one lane, to satisfy these individuals means lane hogging of one lane :)
    I daily see bag heads in cars. Just unbelievable, and it is generally they we have on the streets, who need indicators to show where they are going, or stopping suddenly.
