5:39 so you made a random lane change on the exit of a roundabout, no signal, just wandered into their lane and then complain that they exist there, good work.
@@MattF340He didn’t undertake though. He was in the left lane and exited in that lane. He didn’t come from behind the camper and then go to that lane before coming back in front of him. There are two lanes going off at that roundabout, the guy took the left hand lane and then the tw@t with the camera came off in the right lane before veering into the left. The red car did nothing wrong here.
Number 12 - the solution is to use your MIRRORS. Also, changing lanes on a roundabout exit is stupid. You really need to hand back your licence, if you have one.
I can't believe the cammer submitted that and blamed the other driver. The other driver wasn't wise to pass, but that is only because they should avoid numpties like the cammer who change lanes without looking.
#12 And also the other driver wasn't "undertaking", that's only the case if he was behind u, moved to the left lane, drove past then moved back in front of u. The lane he was in on the roundabout, was the lane he exited the roundabout, so cammer was in the wrong here
40:23 Sorry to say pal you were in the wrong. The tanker was in the correct lane and you should not have pushed so far forward. Your lane had a merge arrow and you should have dropped back and merged behind him. Also to push ahead into oncoming traffic was dangerous. You ask where are you expected to go but where did you expect the tanker to go?
100% agree, this guy was in the wrong here and shouldn't of tried to overtake the lorry and was dangerous. Those lanes are to help filter and manage traffic flow if safe to do so. You can clearly see him speeding and the lorry had right of way there. Just because they use those lanes doesn't entitle them full access
100% agree too, there were plenty of lane markings indicating a merge but car driver submitted this footage and having a moan to gain , what, a few extra metres? Quite sad and pathetic! Had plenty of space to - behind the tanker! Muppet.
@@mstew609and additionally it was the cammers lane that was the one disappearing so they needed to merge. Dangerous that the guy is unable to see his own fault there.
Exactly this. The right lane merges in to the left, not the other way round. The tanker not only has right of way, but is ahead of the car the entire time anyway. Cammer needs to slow down and filter in behind the tanker.
At 40:20, Chris McArthur, if you could not have predicted how that was going to play out, you are either a newbie or just determined to "have your right of way!". You just know the 2 lanes converge into 1, but are just so determined not to end up behind the tanker, Takes much less energy for you to slow down and give the truck a break than for him to stop and allow your Lordship to proceed. A little bit of consideration would go a long way, Mr McArthur. Personally, I will hold off in similar situation.
#56 (26:15) Not only did you fail to go AROUND the roundabout, you didn't even go over the central marking and went around the roundabout completely COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. You then kicked off at the other driver. Hand back your license.
Exactly what I was thinking, had they used the roundabout like it's supposed to be used, this would have never been an issue, the other driver would have long moved off.
#98 ... its not called "The slow leane" it`s called Lane no1 or Driving lane. Lane no2 is for overtaking vehicles in lane 1. when you call it slow lane and fast lane is when you start causing trafic pileups. i can go into details as of what`s the psychology behind it but thats for a proper conversation not for YT comments
#14 re your comment about two cars and traffic camera at red light. Neither car went through a red light so neither of them need worry and it’s not a box junction so they did well to sit back and let cross traffic through.
Exactly - I’m sure the light was green when they went through so won’t get a ticket, but they then did the right thing by waiting rather than blocking traffic. I find it sad that people can’t seem to see these things and submit clips that aren’t at all relevant.
#87 @40:22 nowhere to go?! WTF you talking about?! It was a merge and you could have seen BEFORE the start of the clip you wouldn't get in front of the truck... just slow down and pull in behind FFS?!?!
32:15 I can’t go anywhere??? Jog on buddy, wrong side of the road with an entrance you could park a lorry in if your were on the CORRECT side of the road 😉
Also doesn't slow down until the last second despit traffic approaching from theirright. Once again a video where half the time the cammer is equally in the wrong and, what's worse, doesn't seem to be aware of that.
That doesn't look like shock/adrenaline shakes to me, it looks more like Parkinson's tremors. That might also be the reason for crashing but I guess we don't have any more details.
#92 making your passenger that uncomfortable isn't really on, their life is in your hands regardless of how confident you feel, for the sake of a few more minutes
I was thinking this too. As someone who has been in a car accident as a passenger driver, never underestimate the sheer fear and terror that runs through you when someone else takes dangerous liberties with you in the car. It's very selfish and unfair to do things like this especially when there's really no need for it either. I truly felt for the woman in that car. The fear in her voice tells me there's a reason she's that scared!
Yeah but also, it was a bit over dramatic no matter what situation they were in. She's still panting afterwards even though the manouvre was executed well and safely. Based on where she sat in the car it might have indeed looked like a dangerous overtake but from the drivers side pov he could easily see a straight road with clear visibility and plenty of space to overtake. Panicking like that unnecessarily is more likely to cause the driver to lose focus and crash or make a bad decision. Best to stay quiet and voice your opinions on their driving afterwards and maybe take action against them.
The tractor and load wont be going far, just wait for it to turn off, or for a wider road. if you hit a pothole or hidden debris at the roadside on that overtake youll be off the road or in the side of the tractor.

But nope, accelerate into danger and then act like the other driver is to blame because they couldn't vanish or levitate or what exactly did you expect them to do?

Deluded. This has to be rage bait right? That's the new thing.
For yet more bonus points, cammer appears to be quite happy to play chicken with a tanker that could well be filled with diesel. I can almost see the newpaper headline: 'Fuel tanker in fireball horror kills 32'.
I concur. The twat should’ve given way to the lorry. All that bollocks about having nowhere to go? Yes you did. You just chose to give yourself nowhere to go. I hope you’re reading these Comments about your driving and it makes you think!
Liked how the guy trying to pass the tanker at a merge in turn thought he was in the right, with such a short merge zone it was on him to hang back and make that a non-issue.
#14 Somebody doesn't understand how traffic lights work or the law. They didn't overshoot the stop line, they crossed the line on gcreen. As those vehicles crossed the line on a permissive light there is nothing for the camera to catch, those lights technically no longer apply to then. They have already crossed the line controlled by the light. Blocking the junction is an entirely different issue not enforced by that camera, but then they weren't blocking the junction either, so really, no issue.
It is an issue and also a definite test fail. Try reading rule 176 in the Highway Code. Note: the rule is a MUST NOT and also shows the appropriate legislation.
@@stevesales4263You have completely missed the point. The two cars crossed the line on green - your own footage shows this at 6:05 - and they were then caught by the traffic queue ahead of them. Rather than catching up with the black Ford Focus at the end of the queue, and blocking the road for traffic entering the junction from the left, the VW Golf made the correct decision to stop, thereby keeping the road clear for them. You might be correct if there was a box junction here, but there isn't, so you aren't.
@bruce9090 You are missing the point. Read the Highway Code. Rules pertaining to a yellow box are irrelevant in this case. The offence pertains to the rule already mentioned. The fact that they were caught by the queue that you allege, proves that their exit wasn't clear. Crossing on a green light is also irrelevant. I repeat read the Highway Code.
@@stevesales4263I've read rule 176 (a few times...) and I'm confused as to why you maintain the drivers have breached it. 'You MUST NOT move forward over the white line when the red light is showing.' The video shows that both cars crossed the stop line when the traffic light was on green, so this part of rule 176 does not apply. TSRGD regs 36 (1) (d) refers: 'the green signal shall indicate that vehicular traffic may proceed beyond the stop line and proceed straight on or to the left or to the right.' So it follows that your argument must then be based on its second sentence: 'Only go forward when the traffic lights are green if there is room for you to clear the junction safely.' 6:13 shows two lines of traffic. Joining the back of lane 1 would mean, yes, they would be blocking the intersecting road. However lane 2 has enough space behind its last car for another four, maybe even five, cars.

As another poster commented: 'Neither car went through a red light so neither of them need worry and it’s not a box junction so they did well to sit back and let cross traffic through.'
#5 Lies about indicating, no indicating sound and no orange flashing light reflected anywhere. Stopped, didn't seem to know what he was doing. Then as someone was overtaking them, decided to turn right without checking mirrors.
#87 and you uploaded this to social media😂😂 sorry buddy but you’re 100% in the wrong… And you didn’t have to go into the wrong lane to avoid a crash, All you had to do was use your brakes and slow down. You were never in front of that truck.
Thing is that being a responsible driver is reacting and adapting to unexpected hazards in order to keep yourself and others safe; not to mention avoiding a needless collision. So when a driver stupidly pulls across a lane or out a turning at the wrong time it creates a hazard. Yes it’s true they shouldn’t be in that position, but they are, and so we as responsible drivers should be adapting to that. By slowing down and managing the situation… Driving straight at this driver as if they aren’t there, just to prove a point because “They just shouldn’t be there!” and having something to upload from your Dashcam is the complete opposite of responsible….
5:30 'Chris Mcarthur' it is you who is in the wrong. random lane change on exiting the roundabout instead of following your lane to be in the second lane as indicated by the road markings aswell as the sign on the roundabout. when clear/safe to do so indicate left and change to the left lane. if you wanted to be in the left hand lane on exit then you should have been in the first lane when you entered the roundabout as it is for both turning left and continuing straight.
The driver who claims that the HGV driver pulled out in front of him, forcing him to stop, needs to watch the clip a few more times... The HGV remained stationary, signalling out, until your vehicle had stopped, Sunshine! Tick-good-star for letting him out though.😉
#56. The other car entered the roundabout before you. Respect the lanes and you will do just fine. #89. Yep! A tractor turned on the road far enough in front so that you could safely slow down, just like it said in big letters on the pavement. It's also a reminder that you are not alone on ANY road. #92. I guess it's the last time she goes to visit the mother-in-law, if she continues to stay at the end of this road... 🤣😉 #113. The mother should get a ticket for crossing on a red light, a warning for child endangerment, another ticket for use of a phone while walking/driving, and have her phone taken from her without the right to get a new one before two years. Damn cell phone era. 😡
40:42 you are the problem trying too force your way into the side of an HGV??? That short sighted you couldn’t see what was gonna happen….or you just had to get in front of the tanker? 😂
32:10 "I can't go anywhere!" 😂 that's just piss-poor planning and since the obstacles are on the cam guy's side of the road, he's the one that should have given way in the first place!
6:13 neither of them jumped the red light, both were clearly passed the line long before the red light. It's clear the green VW has stopped because it cannot progress without blocking the cross road, take note of the queue ahead. Ideally they should have stopped before the white line even on green however the minor mistake does not warrant points in this case.
#89 At 41:19, you can clearly see the tractor has pulled out into the main road yet at no point in the 10 seconds it takes you to catch up to it do you do anything to adjust your speed, ignoring the crossroads hazard sign and the warning to slow. You overtake and pull back in front of the tractor like a twat too.
8:20 the amount of times I've seen things like that in burton is RIDICULOUS! it happen 24/7, I'm surprised there hasn't been a complaint about it at all
Taking you life in your hands driving in England, so many drivers haven't even passed their driving tests, high illiteracy and innumeracy levels, in my experience and opinion.
Yesterday on the A 605 I had to overtake a lorry unloading pallets on a blind bend. My son had his head out of his passenger side window yelling ‘ Go now mum’. Thankfully I was able to avoid a head on accident due to our diligence!
people driving with company cars with big logos on them, sometimes i send the video to their employer asking if they think that these idiots driving like this is the front of the comapny you want to see.
#105 if you are a big vehicle they may not be able to see the temporary red light at all - we have a junction like that near home, when there’s a double decker at the red lights, many drivers assume they’re stopped at a bus stop and go round the through the red light which they can’t see because the bus blocks it.
#33 you were in that truck's blind spot for the entire clip. You can't see the driver in the cab, and you can only see a sliver of the mirrors. The lane markings were also atrocious and the driver was probably following the still-visible but incorrect lane marking.
8:10 this is spiral roundout. the filmer have driving on shaded area for long time and cut two line while exit the roundabout. the black car and the filmer will be both liable if there is accident.
Chris McArthur is a bad driver unintentionally sharing his bad driving footage blaming others. #12 5:28 - you should stay in your lane and change after exiting the roundabout. #87 40:20 - the lorry was ahead of you and they let the car in front of you in, you should have held back and zipper merged behind them.
At 19:08 you're both in the wrong, the camera car is heading for A35, on the outside lane at the first lights, then cutting across to the inside lane on the circle, despite the fact at the second lights there's still 2 lanes for the A35 you should have been in the middle lane by the second lights, but what that Clio was doing who knows
5:46 thats not the first time Chris Mcarthur has cut into someone's lane and then blammed the other driver for it... Seems to be a running issue then. Actually Chris Mcarthur has consistently shown themselves to be a terrible driver based on his submissions here, wtf was 87 about? Lol
#4, adaptive cruise control doesn’t mean the car will slow down automatically, it means if you go up hill the car will increase its revs to keep to the selected speed, it will cut your speed back when going downhill, but not on a flat run, engaging a brain cell is more appropriate in this case
49:58 thats in Newham, there should be a camera installed, its a daily basis issue, from both sides right in that spot. ive seen that everyday for the past 3 years.
First video is always a warning even if it’s clear on the right side and you can clearly go you must always remember the car in front can always hesitate
#117 You're eastbound going UP to the top Ivetsey Bank (137m) and have been going UP for the last 300m (130m at Spring Lane). The last down hill section was 900m prior to start of video at a dizzying height of 138m That road junction, which is quite clearly marked in advance with regular road signs, tourist signs for Boscobel House and White Ladies Priory, and the actual road markings creating a centre refuge plus the street lights (in the middle of open countryside) all quite clearly denote there is a potentially hazardous junction ahead even if you were unaware of how dangerous this stretch of road is. The red car which you'd seen for a full 10 seconds prior to passing could have positioned better, could have made the move a tad earlier/faster but you - a professional driver with far more experience - and having seen all these visible clues of danger ahead still decided to plough on at maximum speed.
5:39 so you made a random lane change on the exit of a roundabout, no signal, just wandered into their lane and then complain that they exist there, good work.
Thought the same. Cammer is an idiot..
Yup, not the smartest move to undertake but its a two lane exit so just stay in the lane you're in.

#5 Lies about indicating, no indicating sound and no orange flashing light reflected anywhere. Stopped, didn't seem to know what he was doing. Then as someone was overtaking them, decided to turn right without checking mirrors.
100% same thing i said
I love that 3 of these clips on this one video are on the same stretch of road in camberley hahaha
I dont’ know why people find that roundabout so hard. I think it’s a lot better now they have put extra traffic lights and slip lanes in there.
#87 and you uploaded this to social media😂😂 sorry buddy but you’re 100% in the wrong… And you didn’t have to go into the wrong lane to avoid a crash, All you had to do was use your brakes and slow down. You were never in front of that truck.
Thing is that being a responsible driver is reacting and adapting to unexpected hazards in order to keep yourself and others safe; not to mention avoiding a needless collision. So when a driver stupidly pulls across a lane or out a turning at the wrong time it creates a hazard. Yes it’s true they shouldn’t be in that position, but they are, and so we as responsible drivers should be adapting to that. By slowing down and managing the situation… Driving straight at this driver as if they aren’t there, just to prove a point because “They just shouldn’t be there!” and having something to upload from your Dashcam is the complete opposite of responsible….
Approved.
Must be wrong! You mean drive defensively? Nah, that would just save lives, there must be a reason why vehicles have horns.
5:30 'Chris Mcarthur' it is you who is in the wrong. random lane change on exiting the roundabout instead of following your lane to be in the second lane as indicated by the road markings aswell as the sign on the roundabout. when clear/safe to do so indicate left and change to the left lane. if you wanted to be in the left hand lane on exit then you should have been in the first lane when you entered the roundabout as it is for both turning left and continuing straight.
#12 you really think that the other car was at fault 🙄
"he crossed that white line, he did!"
This is a nice relaxing video, lol.
#92 - tractors are, 99% of the time, 'local traffic', so just bide your time. They will soon turn off.
The driver who claims that the HGV driver pulled out in front of him, forcing him to stop, needs to watch the clip a few more times... The HGV remained stationary, signalling out, until your vehicle had stopped, Sunshine! Tick-good-star for letting him out though.😉
70. Should have pulled in behind and check road was clear but no just blocks the road
Oh the obligatory horn because you’re so perfect!
#12 doesn't know how to drive
#56. The other car entered the roundabout before you. Respect the lanes and you will do just fine.
#89. Yep! A tractor turned on the road far enough in front so that you could safely slow down, just like it said in big letters on the pavement. It's also a reminder that you are not alone on ANY road.
#92. I guess it's the last time she goes to visit the mother-in-law, if she continues to stay at the end of this road... 🤣😉
#113. The mother should get a ticket for crossing on a red light, a warning for child endangerment, another ticket for use of a phone while walking/driving, and have her phone taken from her without the right to get a new one before two years. Damn cell phone era. 😡
0:46 absolutely shocking driving mate 🤦♂️
5:41 cam car fault, check your mirrors , open your eyes etc. why change there anyway??? a very poor place , hint accelerate a bit too
#91 - it's legal. As is a horse and cart, tractor, moped etc.
40:42 you are the problem trying too force your way into the side of an HGV??? That short sighted you couldn’t see what was gonna happen….or you just had to get in front of the tanker? 😂
#114 I love this from the cammer, when you know exactly what the prick is about to do, but you have the right of way so you own all the cards!! 😂😂😂😂😂
#89 - and sooo...? You had minimum 9 seconds to slow.
32:10 "I can't go anywhere!" 😂 that's just piss-poor planning and since the obstacles are on the cam guy's side of the road, he's the one that should have given way in the first place!
6:13 neither of them jumped the red light, both were clearly passed the line long before the red light. It's clear the green VW has stopped because it cannot progress without blocking the cross road, take note of the queue ahead. Ideally they should have stopped before the white line even on green however the minor mistake does not warrant points in this case.
Medical Pipeline appears in one of the clips. I think we've seen this company van in other videos???
I used to drive a truck from Kent to Walsall every night. The incident at 25.36 happened to me every night, often two or three times a night !
#89 At 41:19, you can clearly see the tractor has pulled out into the main road yet at no point in the 10 seconds it takes you to catch up to it do you do anything to adjust your speed, ignoring the crossroads hazard sign and the warning to slow. You overtake and pull back in front of the tractor like a twat too.
Lovely that i read Deathcam first 😂
42:40 DARRYL...DARRYL!!!!!! 😂😂😂
Love the choices of music in Britain!
1:05 I love the kids reactions 😂
11:52 it wont be a school coach, it doesnt have the sticker on the back
8:20 the amount of times I've seen things like that in burton is RIDICULOUS! it happen 24/7, I'm surprised there hasn't been a complaint about it at all
Taking you life in your hands driving in England, so many drivers haven't even passed their driving tests, high illiteracy and innumeracy levels, in my experience and opinion.
The person that sent in number 6 definitely screams when the plane takes off and claps when it lands
Yesterday on the A 605 I had to overtake a lorry unloading pallets on a blind bend. My son had his head out of his passenger side window yelling ‘ Go now mum’. Thankfully I was able to avoid a head on accident due to our diligence!
Overtake? So it was still moving while it was unloading pallets?
#87 you should have held back, your lane merged with the inside lane, hgv had right of way.
people driving with company cars with big logos on them, sometimes i send the video to their employer asking if they think that these idiots driving like this is the front of the comapny you want to see.
#56 if you go the wrong way around a mini roundabout, you cant complain if someone pulls out
16:17 I love how the cammer gives the other driver grief over driving over the centre of the roundabout and goes ahead and does the same
#56 - try using the roundabout correctly.
#105 if you are a big vehicle they may not be able to see the temporary red light at all - we have a junction like that near home, when there’s a double decker at the red lights, many drivers assume they’re stopped at a bus stop and go round the through the red light which they can’t see because the bus blocks it.
No 92 leave her at home Daryl.
#33 you were in that truck's blind spot for the entire clip. You can't see the driver in the cab, and you can only see a sliver of the mirrors. The lane markings were also atrocious and the driver was probably following the still-visible but incorrect lane marking.
Came here for the comments. Wasn't disappointed 🤣
#26 - Cammer had so much time to observe the coach! Why not ease off the gas in plenty of time and allow it to merge?
Because that's what a grown-up would do, and acting like one is beyond the cammer's capacity.
They had a coach full of children slamming on the air breaks would injure them the same as that and also could cause a rear end
@@Lucario0007 *brakes
#87 I have to agree with other comments. Hand your licence back. Do you not understand "merge in turn"?
#87 its time to brake duhh
Lovely to see Medical Pipeline Services being absolutely slated on google reviews 😂
8:10 this is spiral roundout. the filmer have driving on shaded area for long time and cut two line while exit the roundabout. the black car and the filmer will be both liable if there is accident.
I watch these and wonder if my driving has gotten bad
Swear most of those people got their license from Legoland 🤦🏻♂️
11:57 The number of drivers who have zero patience and deliberately manufacture situations just to be awkward is astonishing.
The person who gave these bad drivers licenses should be sacked
53:28 #111 All we know is, he's *not* the Stig, he's the Stig's lorry-driving cousin! Rig Stig
I would never own a dash cam.. Looks like they turn you into awfully bad drivers
That must be the British Gas van with all the shareholders dividends...
Chris McArthur is a bad driver unintentionally sharing his bad driving footage blaming others.
#12 5:28 - you should stay in your lane and change after exiting the roundabout.
#87 40:20 - the lorry was ahead of you and they let the car in front of you in, you should have held back and zipper merged behind them.
16.25 So you both took the roundabout incorrectly well done !
All of the clips from Chris were his fault 🤣🤣🤣
At 19:08 you're both in the wrong, the camera car is heading for A35, on the outside lane at the first lights, then cutting across to the inside lane on the circle, despite the fact at the second lights there's still 2 lanes for the A35 you should have been in the middle lane by the second lights, but what that Clio was doing who knows
Bro the first one is where I live like seriously
Why do so many drivers have an issue with going around mini roundabouts, it's these so called drivers that cause the problems
5:46 thats not the first time Chris Mcarthur has cut into someone's lane and then blammed the other driver for it... Seems to be a running issue then.
Actually Chris Mcarthur has consistently shown themselves to be a terrible driver based on his submissions here, wtf was 87 about? Lol
Fingers crossed the police will see the videos of his consistent shit driving and ban him.
#4, adaptive cruise control doesn’t mean the car will slow down automatically, it means if you go up hill the car will increase its revs to keep to the selected speed, it will cut your speed back when going downhill, but not on a flat run, engaging a brain cell is more appropriate in this case
Really are some tools out there
49:58 thats in Newham, there should be a camera installed, its a daily basis issue, from both sides right in that spot. ive seen that everyday for the past 3 years.
First video is always a warning even if it’s clear on the right side and you can clearly go you must always remember the car in front can always hesitate
#117 You're eastbound going UP to the top Ivetsey Bank (137m) and have been going UP for the last 300m (130m at Spring Lane). The last down hill section was 900m prior to start of video at a dizzying height of 138m
That road junction, which is quite clearly marked in advance with regular road signs, tourist signs for Boscobel House and White Ladies Priory, and the actual road markings creating a centre refuge plus the street lights (in the middle of open countryside) all quite clearly denote there is a potentially hazardous junction ahead even if you were unaware of how dangerous this stretch of road is.
The red car which you'd seen for a full 10 seconds prior to passing could have positioned better, could have made the move a tad earlier/faster but you - a professional driver with far more experience - and having seen all these visible clues of danger ahead still decided to plough on at maximum speed.
