Hi, just a quick thank you. My wife keeps telling me i am the worlds greatest moaner when driving, every video we watch of yours (and we dont miss many) just proves i’m not. So thank you Ps. You are justified, must be a nightmare doing your job. Please keep taking the tablets and doing the videos
Your question about being stuck at a green light, makes me think of something that happened to me yesterday. I was towards the front of a queue of traffic at a set of temporary lights, there was only one car in front of me, so I could see quite a way up the road, and when our light turned green, we set off quite easily, with no problem, but then, coming the other way, a berk in a merc, who'd either emerged from a side-road, or ignored his red light, got in the way. The berk didn't reverse, almost expecting the car I was following to do so instead, but because I was there, and had nowhere to go myself with a load of things, including vans, behind me, that wasn't going to happen. Fortunately, there was a gap in the cones that had been set out, so the Tesla I'd been following got into the gap, the merc was able to move far enough forward that the Tesla could get passed him, then once the gap was empty again, the merc actually managed to get into it, only, by the time he'd done so, the lights had clearly changed again, and the traffic behind him started moving forwards, even though it should have been patently obvious that their way was blocked. To cut a long story short, the merc was stuck in the gap he'd found, the traffic behind him all had to reverse back, and the queue I'd been leading were finally able to make our way out of the roadworks.
Totally agree with what you say about vehicles ignoring a right ( or left ) turn only, and use it as an overtaking platform. You can see them edge over lines, creeping; waiting to race launch to get into your lane. It is amazing how many think the outside lane is meant for them and wont use any other. Except when all of a sudden there's a big queue in their lane.
The range rover in the last clip which you burned off moved to the outside lane because it did not want any peasants overtaking it because as you know " im considerably richer than yow "
One of your best yet! You say exactly what I’m thinking, it’s hilarious. Buses indicate and go, regardless of what’s behind/alongside! Cyclists in Lycra think they own the road. I feel your frustration. You are great 😁
I was driving about today having a little nap minding my own business. As i cross a roundabout, didn't check to my right i couldn't be bothered I was asleep, some absolute loon in a Kia had the cheek to beep at me. 😅
Many thanks for sharing this alarming video Tony. Som quality driving, cycling and clueless pedestrians!!! Thought you did well to keep your cool. Take care and catch you soon 👍👍👍
At 6:30, it's annoying when people just think about themselves and do not close up when traffic lights are indicating green. No tailgating is suggested, but as long as you can see the back wheels of the car in front, that's the separation that's needed. . .not 25 yards!!
Whenever somebody makes you Slow, Stop, Swerve or fkn Swear 🤬 then they have clearly made a cock up. Wait........ where have I heard this before? It sounds like a phrase that Tony would use. Thanks for yet another vid - full of cunning stunts 🤣🤣
No forward planning or looking ahead and thinking 2 or 3 moves in front, there is a breed of driver nowadays who takes for granted that others will do the thinking for them because they are oblivious to their surroundings and they don't even realise it.
You have to go in the right hand lane if you are turning right two miles the distant!! See it all the time on the Sheffield ring road. Followed another right hand lane idiot tound the Brackley Bypass. Even when turning left at roundabouts, he still kept to the right.
The smoking van through Reigate has likely got an issue with the EGR valve. The MIL will be on, and it definitely wouldn't pass an MOT like that. If he continues to drive it, the DPF will also clog up, meaning an expensive repair.
12:32 The Lamb pub on the left with a "SKOL" sign on it. Do they still make that muck or have they just not updated the pub signage for several decades?
boy did i have an encounter yesterday, was travelling on a bus between Woking and Guildford, just left Woking railway station when a TITD (totally idiotic toyota driver) who had enough room to turn around decided to reverse out, hitting the bus i was travelling on, minor damage just past the doors, bus was driveable and no one was hurt, the bus driver wasn't happy and the drivers exchanged information, bus driver informed the company about what happened and then we continued on
It’s exactly the same in east Germany. Same cars doing the same stuff. Same with bicycles; lots of money spent on cycle lanes and they just take the pavement.
I had a nasty experience on the 11th. I parked my car and got out only to hear a knock on the door 5 minutes later. My car had rolled down a slight slope and hit my neighbours VW beetle causing damage to the rear subframe. I was mortified as this was my 1st ever accident in 40 years of driving and it's now my 1st ever insurance claim and it happened to my neighbour🤕🤕🤕🤕 This is the 2nd beetle she's had written off in just under 6 weeks so I advised she didn't buy another one but she didn't see the funny side of things. I really am gutted for her and I must have apologised 20 times in a couple of days😮💨😮💨
14:36 about the "21 plate" observation, I don't know if this happens in the UK, but could it be that the current registration plate is 2021, but the van is older, e.g. a company van sold unregistered in 2021, or which had special company plates?
Wrong. An exhaust emissions test has been part of the UK MoT test since 1991 (1994 for diesel vehicles). That particular van would likely fail even a visual inspection, let alone the machine test.
I'm starting to wish that very there was a separate DVLA License class for the likes of these Rage Rovers or Maybachs. These vehicles are almost as big as category Cs and are far too often driven by little people with an entitlement complex. Every place in the UK now has one mini roundabout (like that one of yours on West St/A232) where no one in a Rage Rover wants to give way. The problem is systemic now. People who want to drive these bigger vehicles should take an extended driving test which focuses on PSM and MSM. They're shit drivers because many of them are tiny and can barely see their mirrors let alone their blind spots.
re. 8:07 - 8:30 when I did Compulsory Basic Training for motorbike, I was taught that when filtering, you always do it on the right, so you're not in people's blind spot, and you always do it slowly (preferably in first gear), so people have plenty of time to see you coming - what the cyclist did was very stupid and potentially dangerous
I don't agree. Why was it the wrong time? As he is narrow then he can fit between cars, the traffic ahead was going slower. I think LDC made a big assumption that the cyclist gave the emerging car a 'filthy look', he simply could not see at that distance what kind of a look he gave. The cyclist merely turned his head to check what the emerging car was doing. The traffic flowed ok with no danger. I'm afraid this is just LDC wanting to have a pop at cyclists.
14:20; That looks like water, rather than oil smoke, so my guess is someone has overfilled the oil, over pressured the engine; and blown the head gasket.
14:22, blown head gasket, would of loved to see them pull into Mr.Exhaust but oh well, guess they thought that the 3 years mot exemption also applied to the maintenance of it, either that or typical white van behavior razzing it around🤦♀. white smoke: coolant, Bluish tinted smoke: oil, Back smoke: running a bit rich.
again with regards to pedestrians she doesn't have to use the lights nothing in the highway code says she has to! it does however state YOU have to be aware as the car driver
When you ask are they happy i would like to find out, i am sure if i was a millionaire i would be a miserable bastard, there again does money make any difference.
With regard to the smoking van, I'd hazard a guess and say it's a petrol engine, and the driver has put diesel in it. Not good but much better than the other way round!
Worrying development round here.People learning to drive in audis. Does that mean they're going to be an arsehole in an Audi from the very start? What's next?L plates on Land Rovers??? Keep up the caustic commentaries. P.s. How's the blood pressure?
I've got a theory as to why the drivers of German cars behave "differently" (the restrained description) to the other road users. When they manufacturer a German car a gss capsule is inserted into the ventilation system that causes a chemical frontal lobotomy of the driver's brain. Therefore we end up with moronic behaviour. It doesn't seem to matter where in the country one lives the bad driving is rife.
As a cyclist, I will say that plonker at 8:30 is an idiot. Since traffic is moving, he can just coast behind you and relax for a few seconds. He caused a lot of crap by being an impatient idiot. Also in that situation there's no point filtering anyway, it's a red and you will make everyone overtake you again. It's only 4 cars in front of him. Idk why cyclists can't just sit in traffic when already near the front
Why is that people with a dashcam think that having a dashcam makes them right? This person is case-in-point. Terrible driver, does multiple dangerous things in this video all the while ranting in this incredibly annoying commentary that just shows how clueless he is.
You've just done to me exactly what I do to other drivers except I give a reason and explain what they've done wrong you can't be bothered to do that the irony is wasted on you.
Van wasn't Smoking , it was vaping. Always more pollution from a vape
I thought your sat-nav said "WARNING, Cabbage ahead", I suppose whether it said cabbage or hazard it was right because it was an Audi😆😁🤣
i had a bad one today. i saw something of pure nightmare, an Audi towing a Caravan

You make me chuckle with every vid mate.Your comments sound exactly like the sort of things I come out with,when I am out on the road😆😆
The outside lane contains the power rail for those people/vehicles
14:22 Enjoying the irony of that van spurting that out as it passes a place called "Mr Exhaust" haha.
I love your contempt for the "rich"
I always say that the big 4X4 are always out trying to find the lesser spotted white fiesta

Its great. Tony is hilarious. Really good videos and entertainment.... You do get a few negative tossers commenting tho xx
Thanks for the flashback to All in the Family with "meathead"!! It was so not PC, funny as hell and I miss it!
It’s exactly the same in east Germany. Same cars doing the same stuff. Same with bicycles; lots of money spent on cycle lanes and they just take the pavement.
Yep......entitled cyclists
Cycle lanes in UK are usually full of broken glass, shredded car tyres and hawthorn prunings.
Not to mention bits of wood, dead animals, and pedestrians too!😊
Excuses
The ‘Scilly Isles’ look the same as 65 years ago when I was at school and heard about them and had to cycle over to have a look.
I had a nasty experience on the 11th. I parked my car and got out only to hear a knock on the door 5 minutes later.

Bus driver might have been a new starter, they can be eager to please and keep on time which can be their own worst enemy.

Keep them coming please, your commentaries are fucking brilliant!!!
LDC is a good role model, obviously.
@dad7720
Absolutely x
14:30, smoking van, not changing his oil so piston rings shot. Smoke won't fail MOT, just our lungs.
Keep em coming mate, good stuff.

@@DraftySatyr
I see a lot of smokey vehicles on the road, petrol and diesel so how are they still on the road, no MOT?
Hey Tony,
As usual funny as f$*k...keep em coming :)
Where was the snob, I mean 'golf' club?
Great video. I'm glad not to be a professional driver .
Fun Factoid. In France they are taught that the queue moves off together at traffic lights. What a difference. smokey van valve stem oil seals?
08.07 I’ve had that happen to me a few times.
Excellent vid as usual.
I don't BELIEVE IT! Love you
So rich people couldn't make a road where two cars don't have to wait for each other? What a shame))

In turkey at the moment keep the videos coming 👍

It doesn't get any better!
08:11 the cyclist was deffo in the wrong, wrong time to filter.

8:08 I was about to comment that this time you didn’t have to deal with any cyclists, until this bloke came around.
07:56 mad woman with a death wish

That Suzi was first again. How does this keep happening🤣🤣
She's a proper fast bitch x
She's just super fast x
LDC sends her a secret message moments before he uploads his latest video.
Really bad cycling you say, you can shorten that to "cycling".
But according to our wonderful Mayor, because that van is a 21 reg it is fully ULEZ compliant and doesn't ;pollute.
Here's a question for all the drivers do you pass a manual test or automatic as most hybrid and electric cars are automatic?!!!
Another very Good Video.🧸🚙
Oh tony, if i could afford it I'd buy an audi, merc or bmw just because! BTW my daughter drives a merc or a bmw and is an excellent driver!
14:20; That looks like water, rather than oil smoke, so my guess is someone has overfilled the oil, over pressured the engine; and blown the head gasket.
Could it be a DPF regen?
I am no expert on DPF regen; but I didnt think it was supposed to produce plumes of exhaust under JUST acceleration, but all the time it was running.
14:22, blown head gasket, would of loved to see them pull into Mr.Exhaust but oh well, guess they thought that the 3 years mot exemption also applied to the maintenance of it, either that or typical white van behavior razzing it around🤦♀.
white smoke: coolant, Bluish tinted smoke: oil, Back smoke: running a bit rich.

Me and my partner have been watching Ur channel for a few months, and we are both wondering why....
You DO NOT display your speed on the dashcam???
He drives a Passat and probably has for decades. That makes him a proper meathead in my book
Audi owners? I think you'll find that most people who drive Audis don't actually own them. They usually belong to banks or finance companies.
Replace Audi with car. But yeah. It’s true.
You have to admire “proper” bitter when you hear it. Nearly as bitter as me. 🐹
'Audi' other 'alf live? Nice phrasing.
😂
Do the Audis/Mercs/BMWs etc come with a years supply of shit deodoriser? They certainly drive like their shit doesn't stink. Not like us peasants.
Unpleasant post.
😂😂😂😂
Tony do cyclists have to read highway code. Think not..
No, they can jump on a bike for the first time ever and ride on a main road
that van, think the use fiat engines in them now and not very good ones
Cyclists believe they own the road and can do what they want
Why do you have to give a cyclist 2 meters but they can filter?
I've got a theory as to why the drivers of German cars behave "differently" (the restrained description) to the other road users. When they manufacturer a German car a gss capsule is inserted into the ventilation system that causes a chemical frontal lobotomy of the driver's brain. Therefore we end up with moronic behaviour.

We aren't all like that. I am, but not all of us are xxx
