    9:46 - Damn it Margaret. You had one job... Not to cause a complete fuckery on the A1M!
    To be fair I would have done the same thing, just providing that the Fiesta was on the ball too. There's probably no question really in terms of avoiding them, otherwise I think traction will be a bit much to take swerving round them on the hard shoulder...
    Great review man, always providing the entertainment unlike the other camera reviews you see on in the YT world 😉 I can't see any other dashcam channel willing to Johnny Knoxville into their local pond haha! Glad you're alright though buddy, following the bike crash. That did look brutal!

    • @DashCamHull
      @DashCamHull  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      She definitely looks like a Margaret doesn't she? 😂 Yeah I'd have only gone for the swerve left if the Fiesta was too close to also react. As I say, braking wasn't an option just because I was way too close once I realised they were in fact stupid enough to just do a YOLO merge. I'd never put my life purely in the hands of Vauxhall's brakes 😂
      Cheers man, I appreciate that hugely :) I refuse to do normal reviews because I'd be bored making them and people would be bored watching them. I'm just glad Apeman allowed me to do it as a part of another video as review videos just dont get clicks, hence my contest being a cheeky way of upping the engagement on my lowest viewed videos and hopefully capture the attention of more companies ;) Or well... that was the intended idea, it will probably do knack all but I had to come up with something haha!

      @@DashCamHull Yeah definitely! Was the first name to come to mind 🤣 That's the only next feasible way of avoiding the stupid so-and-so's attempt for colliding. Haha good shout... Maybe some VXR brake upgrade on the cards then? Stopping power over 9000 😉
      Anytime man, my pleasure :) I definitely see where you're coming from. I've not had any motivation of doing any Q&A or any other videos just due to the lack of imagination or creativity personally. I could just slap a meme video for the lols - but I lose motivation when Vegas 13 shits a brick, and loses my saves before I get a chance to save any changes I did 😂 But your creativity does inspire me to make more memes when I can though! Just need to stop obessing over the Toyota Trueno (eurobeat car) in Forza 🤣
      Yeah definitely! Think Apeman's mistake was a blessing in disguise really. Think the cards you played were pretty good... In the words of iDubbbz 😉 Time will tell man! Soon you'll be on par with WelshDrive's views!

    That happened to me on M602. I was in right lane (Lane 2 of 2) and some guy tried to merge from hard shoulder at 20mph and forced the guy from lane 1 into me and me into the reservation. God knows how we all managed to make 3 lanes out of 2 going 70 round a bend.

    @nigelcox1451 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    On the motorway, with the traffic quite light, a bit of braking, followed by the move outwards might have been an option. With the Fiesta reacting at the same time, you could both move out, good actions by him. Another option, if the hard shoulder is clear ahead, is to move onto it, then brake, let the Merc go, and accelerate and rejoin the main carriageway when she's far enough ahead. Whenever someone pulls in front, from wherever, heading for where they came from should always be an option to consider, its where they are least likely to go next.
    The car sat well back at a junction might be for a better view. It appears to be on a gently bend, and often you can see more from a little way back. She's probably used it before, and has learnt to do that. Or she might have had a near miss from someone turning in and cutting the corner.

    And nope, would have done the same as you. Move into the 2nd lane. If the Fiesta was that much closer, undertake them instead. The female driver would have probably done that to a HGV, so its not personal to you
    Apologies for not doing my el cheapo action camera footage....My enthusiasm is still bottom of the barrel.

Tbf I'd much rather she did it to me since I got to use it for content ;D Plus I'd hate to imagine if she did that to the artic. Might have not been so lucky at steering around her as I was.

    Fiesta had the right idea. 10% + 2mph before you get squeezed by the constabulary. May as well use it. You'd have been keeping up with the flow of traffic then and fiesta wouldn't have been a concern. No
    Speed isn't the danger on these sorts of roads, it's frightened and hesitant drivers who panic and do stupid shit like this that causes the accidents. She will be the first to complain that everyone else drives too fast, then speed cameras turn up and we're now all looking down at our speed, not this bint pulling into lane 1 from the hard shoulder.

    With poor old Granny and her merge on a motor way at 30MPh on the apex of a bend all credit to you for acting as you did. Spent years as a driving Instructor in Leicester and always tried to teach on Motorways try never to go ‘three in a line’. In other words if you know you are being over taken or seconds later you will BE overtaken stay put. I’d call it giving yourself a ‘bolt hole’ at speed if the person you are overtaking pulls out.
    Now of course granny was first of all impossible to even see except until very late and if you applied full emergency braking at your speed (even through the ABS would not lock you up and technically you should still be able to steer) I think you would have hit her anyway. Okay hopefully at a reduced speed but I still reckon you would both have been seriously injured or even killed. It’s the deceleration forces from that speed we are looking at here or the G your internal organs will experience as your chest and lower abdominal cavity meet the tightening seat belt and your airbags go off. Of course a massive well done to the driver behind reading what was going to happen well in advance, holding back and giving you time and space to get round. Good bit of driving on your part and yes a true ‘brown trouser moment’ but you kept calm and saved a collision. I expect the old Lady never even realised she could have killed both of you and will likely do the same thing to somebody else. There comes a time when we all need to turn in our Licence, take the Bus or get a taxi! Mines not here yet but sure it will come and then when I see my grown up Sons or my Niece who is learning this year, maybe they can ferry me around like parents always acted as a Taxi service for our kids!
