Nickel's worth of free advice to those with trailers or Caravans being towed, FFS allow yourself extra time. It will take longer for your vehicle to complete turns. If it means letting cars through when normally you wouldn't because there's nothing being towed, so be it.
DC driver is not in the wrong. He is allowed to go left or straight (he was going straight). The white car must go straight and he went left. White car is at fault!
@@jde12 white car wasnt in the right lane though, dash cam car pulled right over a solid white. I had to watch it back 3 times to check, DC definitely at fault there
@@_Zekken white car was in the right of the two lanes on entry. DC didn't cross a solid line either, those long ones are called "special purpose, broken". YT won't let link be posted, but the DC is in the right according to the signs and road arrows on entry.
@@lesstockley4937 admittedly im going of NZs road rules instead of australias, but I believe they are extremely similar to each other From what I see, the road layout is a bit confusing. But DC is in the left lane, and pulls into the left lane which goes direct left. He has to cross the right lane to go right. White car pulls into right lane, which even if the initial merge into that lane was wrong (im not sure, it is again hard to tell the road layout from just this clip) however, once they were in that is very clearly open to go in either direction, So from my perspective, DC is cutting across a lane to go right, and even if his lane does allow that you arent allowed to just plough through a car that is making what according to the layout of the road markings is a 100% legal turn.

@@flynnmartin1528 Look at the speed at the bottom. He slows down AFTER he gets through the smoke. Even if there's a delay on the readout, still doing 80km/h through that is stupid.
It appears that Australia is taking the same approach to road enforcement as the uk. Get rid of most of the police traffic cars and rely on speed cameras to control poor driving. Basically you can drive like a total douche bag but as long as you are doing it under the speed limit the chances of you being caught are pretty much zero.
Why doesn’t the DC’er beep their horn and make a scene whilst the Disco is reversing at 2:50 instead of just sitting there and watching it crash into another car? Ok, there’s no audio but still, madly beeping your horn would attract everyone’s attention.
Hi, DC'er here the lady in the white car was honking and I was frantically waving at her once I saw her continuing to reverse (you can kinda see my hands in the reflection on the windscreen), she was for the most part just staring at her right-hand side mirror not once checking her left mirror while she was reversing only looking in over her shoulder when we started to alert her. I will say it felt like it all happened a lot quicker at the time and looking at it again I could have rolled my window down to wave at her better to get her attention and I do feel bad for not doing more like honking like a mad man lol. Luckily, the damage wasn't bad.
@@Memerascal Maybe one continuous horn blare.... usually a signal denoting danger.. used by large ships about to collide....so a well-proven safety measure... "brace for collision"....

In the defence of that blue ute at 16:43, I made that turn every day for five years and there is something very much not right about the camber there. I've seen tons of people- not just blokes in Falcodores- lose traction there.
Deadset, both leaving from the left (in the clip, turning right in reality) and heading towards Geelong as in the clip that intersection is cock-eyed - really needs to be a roundabout.
I get it, it's more polite than the regular WTF, but it's like " paying attention " on the road is an option these days, then again with many clips displaying a total lack of, perhaps it is.
@@ZippitZippo i don't know what roundabout your looking at mate, but its quite clear the blue vehicle left his lane and caused the accident. Go back and look at the road markings. Turns out i was wrong i went back and looked at the road markings 🤣 the video doesn't show it but streetview does, white car can only go straight there.although i don't know where the law stands on this as it does seem like blue changed lanes on an unbroked line sorta? white car was not where he should have been but was following the road markings kinda? , absolutely horrible piece of roadway there
Incorrect. White car changed lanes into DC. This is the intersection of The Princess Highway and East West Link in Croom. DC can go straight or turn left. White Car had to stay straight into the 'right turn lane'. The road markings are poorly designed but DC didn't do anything wrong. White car followed a straight white line and then turned left.... It would be easy to mistake it if you didn't know the location but the cam still clearly shows white car in the wrong.
13:30 - dude... What did you think the cars ahead where planning? Either wait for them, or go to the far lane to pass. You knew what they were stopped for. You knew they would move when they got a gap. And you act surprised when they do exactly what you did but slightly slower.
I hate being in the position of the middle car. When the person in front is too slow to merge and you know the cars behind you are going to pull out too. Basically forces me into a position of waiting for every other car.
I'm guessing it's a moving worksite 🤷 Either way, stupid idea since people 5 or 6 cars back probably can't see the signs. And even at the front of the queue, what does "do not overtake" mean when the thing you're stopped at looks like a roadwork barrier, not a moving vehicle? I honestly couldn't figure out WTF we were looking at, then I couldn't figure out where the stop sign or red light was... As far as I can tell, the Australian standards for roadwork traffic control include stopping traffic with a stop sign or traffic light, not a display board saying "do not overtake".
Its a necessity with health and safety rules. Lots of traffic controllers die because of uncontrolled cars. They have to set the site up on 100km/h roads so they need a shadow vehicle to keep vehicles behind. Sometimes there’s no where safe to pull up because of v drains, soft shoulders so they have no choice but to stop on the road.
@@tin2001 It's an Attenuator or a TMA. It's a truck with crash barriers mounted on the back used for high volume or high risk roads. For my job I'm often using them or smaller ones on local roads under what's called "Mobile Operations". The amount of idiots that disobey the traffic management is crazy, and this is what causes deaths of road workers. If one of these trucks show a flashing cross or literally say "Do Not Pass", you legally must comply and NOT pass them until you are told you can by the crew. Trust me, we don't want to hold you up any more than we have to, but work, whatever it may be, needs to be done, and safely. I'm in NZ and mobile ops can't hold up traffic for more than 5 mins before having to let them pass. Also depends on the build up sometimes.
The first clip reminded me of the time my father fell out of his chair and NO ONE stopped to help him.. they just drove passed and stared at him on the ground
I thought the holiday guy got out of the car at the back and I couldn't work out why he was hollering at the DC car. Took me like three rewatchs to see he got out of the car in front and he was hollering at the rear car. Hope he eventually had a good holiday.

20:58 WORST intersection I'm the history of intersections! The car coming from the left and turning right has a green light, but as soon as you turn that corner there's another set of lights that you have to stop for. First time I went through there I did the exact same thing and ran the second red, but luckily there was no other cars coming through 🤦🏻♀️
That's a ridiculous intersection. Easily sorted with the second lights going green as well. Same goes for similar at 14:56. I'd imagine plenty of tail boning there.
Yeah I can imagine they'd be tough intersections to navigate, unless you have two functional eyeballs watching what's happening... even one eyeball would do the job
@@haydyn1993 Even Stevie Wonder wouldn't have an issue with dealing with the lights. 🤣 It's all good for the first vehicle. It's the clowns behind, watching the back of the car in front. It's just past that point they stop. If both lights were green together, traffic would move, instead of moving a few car lengths only stop unnecessarily. Those a few cars back then bitch about not making it through on green, then run the red. The problems compound.
I love when a company car does something stupid/dangerous so I can give them a little call, especially in this video when JD Fenton plumbing went up the middle of two cars because the owner answers the phone 😂
It is best practice to reverse into a carpark or blind driveway. (Almost no-one does this). You have finer control because your front wheels give you more precise positioning of your vehicle. If you find it difficult to reverse into a carpark or driveway due to heavy traffic or visual obstructions, imagine how difficult it would be to reverse out into heavy traffic or visual obstructions!
One Angel, and over One Hundred & Twelve Arseholes, Inattentive or Distracted Drivers, with a couple of Arsehole, Inattentive or Distracted Non-Drivers.
I worked it out... most people must believe they are the most important thing on the road, so gone is patience and letting people in to avoid a possible accident and agro. Then there's a large percentage who aren't reading the road ahead, at all. Followed by those who drive like they did in the old country. And, those who drive it like they stole it.
Imagine if our police force had something that might allow them to drive around the streets on a regular basis and stop some of these idiots like, oh, I dunno, mobile patrols instead of hundreds of radar/camera cars parked on the side of the road collecting taxes.
They used to do this in W.A. They called themselves the Road Traffic Authority (RTA). They were basically cops who literally hid behind bushes waiting to pounce on errant drivers. Everyone hated them but they were effective.

and not modify existing ones...for safety?
Nickel's worth of free advice to those with trailers or Caravans being towed, FFS allow yourself extra time. It will take longer for your vehicle to complete turns. If it means letting cars through when normally you wouldn't because there's nothing being towed, so be it.
@8:40 I am pretty sure dashcam was in the wrong. Can't see arrows in Lane but the road looks like they where at fault.
almost definitely lol

No shit Sherlock. You went into their lane 😂
Did look to be the cammers fault, probably need to see if there were signs or road markings before the lights to be sure.
DC driver is not in the wrong. He is allowed to go left or straight (he was going straight). The white car must go straight and he went left. White car is at fault!

@@jde12 white car wasnt in the right lane though, dash cam car pulled right over a solid white. I had to watch it back 3 times to check, DC definitely at fault there
@@_Zekken white car was in the right of the two lanes on entry. DC didn't cross a solid line either, those long ones are called "special purpose, broken". YT won't let link be posted, but the DC is in the right according to the signs and road arrows on entry.
@@lesstockley4937 admittedly im going of NZs road rules instead of australias, but I believe they are extremely similar to each other
From what I see, the road layout is a bit confusing. But DC is in the left lane, and pulls into the left lane which goes direct left. He has to cross the right lane to go right.
White car pulls into right lane, which even if the initial merge into that lane was wrong (im not sure, it is again hard to tell the road layout from just this clip) however, once they were in that is very clearly open to go in either direction,
So from my perspective, DC is cutting across a lane to go right, and even if his lane does allow that you arent allowed to just plough through a car that is making what according to the layout of the road markings is a 100% legal turn.

It appears that Australia is taking the same approach to road enforcement as the uk. Get rid of most of the police traffic cars and rely on speed cameras to control poor driving. Basically you can drive like a total douche bag but as long as you are doing it under the speed limit the chances of you being caught are pretty much zero.
Looks like the Ubereats guy in the last video is not going to be getting any stars
Hmm that sucks.

Ok, there’s no audio but still, madly beeping your horn would attract everyone’s attention.
I've been watching these videos for years. Some people are completely oblivious to horns.
Hi, DC'er here the lady in the white car was honking and I was frantically waving at her once I saw her continuing to reverse (you can kinda see my hands in the reflection on the windscreen), she was for the most part just staring at her right-hand side mirror not once checking her left mirror while she was reversing only looking in over her shoulder when we started to alert her. I will say it felt like it all happened a lot quicker at the time and looking at it again I could have rolled my window down to wave at her better to get her attention and I do feel bad for not doing more like honking like a mad man lol.

In the defence of that blue ute at 16:43, I made that turn every day for five years and there is something very much not right about the camber there. I've seen tons of people- not just blokes in Falcodores- lose traction there.

@@ZippitZippo assume you are the driver of the dashcam vehicle?
Incorrect. White car changed lanes into DC. This is the intersection of The Princess Highway and East West Link in Croom. DC can go straight or turn left. White Car had to stay straight into the 'right turn lane'. The road markings are poorly designed but DC didn't do anything wrong. White car followed a straight white line and then turned left.... It would be easy to mistake it if you didn't know the location but the cam still clearly shows white car in the wrong.
13:30 - dude... What did you think the cars ahead where planning? Either wait for them, or go to the far lane to pass. You knew what they were stopped for. You knew they would move when they got a gap. And you act surprised when they do exactly what you did but slightly slower.
I hate being in the position of the middle car. When the person in front is too slow to merge and you know the cars behind you are going to pull out too. Basically forces me into a position of waiting for every other car.
@@EnShinNoi
Yep. But waiting is safer in the end.
yep. You either wait or you gamble that other people can use their brain and figure the whole situation out. Waiting is the better option.

11:16 how long does this work last for? I can't imagine people willing to wait around for more than a minute or two.
I'm guessing it's a moving worksite 🤷
Either way, stupid idea since people 5 or 6 cars back probably can't see the signs. And even at the front of the queue, what does "do not overtake" mean when the thing you're stopped at looks like a roadwork barrier, not a moving vehicle?
I honestly couldn't figure out WTF we were looking at, then I couldn't figure out where the stop sign or red light was... As far as I can tell, the Australian standards for roadwork traffic control include stopping traffic with a stop sign or traffic light, not a display board saying "do not overtake".
Its a necessity with health and safety rules. Lots of traffic controllers die because of uncontrolled cars.
They have to set the site up on 100km/h roads so they need a shadow vehicle to keep vehicles behind. Sometimes there’s no where safe to pull up because of v drains, soft shoulders so they have no choice but to stop on the road.
@@tin2001 It's an Attenuator or a TMA. It's a truck with crash barriers mounted on the back used for high volume or high risk roads. For my job I'm often using them or smaller ones on local roads under what's called "Mobile Operations". The amount of idiots that disobey the traffic management is crazy, and this is what causes deaths of road workers. If one of these trucks show a flashing cross or literally say "Do Not Pass", you legally must comply and NOT pass them until you are told you can by the crew. Trust me, we don't want to hold you up any more than we have to, but work, whatever it may be, needs to be done, and safely. I'm in NZ and mobile ops can't hold up traffic for more than 5 mins before having to let them pass. Also depends on the build up sometimes.
