    2:10 J, I mean mate, you were going to overtake on a blind hill and corner coming up to a Junction. You would not have made that at all without cutting off the cyclist or having a close call with the approaching vehicle. You're at fault there bud.

    • @Lukeno52
      @Lukeno52 4 місяці тому +103

      They wouldn't even have been close to making it - the cyclist drifting out a bit is just the excuse they're using to save face. Plus the cyclist is perfectly entitled to sit in the middle of the lane if they want - you never know what they've potentially seen that might cause them problems on the inside of the road, after all.

      What I noticed is the keep left arrow in the middle of the road for oncoming traffic. Odd placement so close to the T Junction. That would point to that junction having a lot of corner-cutters coming from the left or/and wide-swingers coming from the right. Either way cyclist may have local knowledge and doesn't need an overtaker alongside.

      I don't think it was "clearly" going to do that until it stopped, by which time Nick D was already blocking the parallel park. There was a turning ahead, a disabled bay ahead, and a pavement ahead with loads of cars parked on it. The left signal could've been indicating intent to go onto any of those instead of intent to parallel park. Yes, Nick ideally would've realised that the indicator was potentially indicating intent to parallel park and held back, but it wasn't as dumb a mistake as you're suggesting it was.

    For Nick D's clip, I appreciate that the reversing car was absolutely at fault for that careless reverse. With that being said, it's disappointing how few people have any idea about people looking to parallel park, and just blindly drive right up behind people who have clearly indicated that they intend to do so. I have to parallel park on my road where I live, and the amount of times I've had to abandon doing so is insane, purely because people don't think to stop until they are a few inches behind you.

      easy enough to spot but there may have been some confusion as to where the car was going. it looked like he could have been indicating to take the left turn after the parked cars. the way to ensure that nobody closes down the space is to indicate and pull up next to the space, not in front, wait until traffic behind stops and then pull forward and manoeuvre into the space.

      The cammer - and how many cars after him, too? I've been in that exact situation many times: the first one goes into the opposite lane, and dozens of cars are following suit - everybody thinking "When the oncoming traffic waits for the first one, he'll have to wait for all the following, too." I would have done the same as the Saab driver: not to make them reverse the whole length of the obstacle (which wouldn't work anyway, because there would be six to nine more vehicles behind them), but to stop them long enough to realize what a crappy move that was. And the chances are better that the rest of the oncoming traffic realizes that they shouldn't follow the backed up queue of cars on the wrong side of the road.
      When you have to stop because a steady queue of cars is coming down your own lane - when do you think is the right moment to stop them from doing that?

      To be fair the only reason you can't see the approaching vehicle is because the cammer pulled out behind the vehicle in front, so couldn't actually see if the road was clear or not.
      The cammer clearly performed a dangerous overtake by pulling out into the opposing carriageway when they couldn't see whether it was safe or not.
      And, yes the oncoming vehicle was just being a dick by not making the cammer's poor driving a non-issue.
      Two wrongs don't make a right as they say.
      But had the cammer not been directly behind the other vehicle, the oncoming one would have been clearly visible.
