Could you have avoided this?

[Tony.OK]

At 27 sec he did something weird, I was thinking to myself "stay well left" then he suddenly drifts a bit right? Almost like he looked at the truck so rode that way?
I'd like to think I'd be thinking to stay well left for 1st truck then be prepared to swerve right for 2nd (red) truck. That and I'd be wondering "where the hell is Drew gonna be mono'ing past me?"

[nodrog:Me]

...... Speaking of crashing (or near hits), have you ever been in this sort of situation before? .

yes, but far worser.

[Drew]

How fast does everyone think the dude was going?

He barely touched the bloody truck, his speed nipple was hardly damaged at all. If he had cottoned on to the situation earlier, he'd have come to a stop and been giving the lorry (it's pommy so use the right lingo fuck ya's), the big finger and yelling abuse.

It was more than avoidable, but the outcome of that accident was so bloody minor I dunno what all the fuss is about.

Tony, I'd have monoed by you before we even saw the truck, looks cooler to do that shit on a bend.

[Katman]

How fast does everyone think the dude was going?

Clearly, just a little bit too fast.

[Drew]

Clearly, just a little bit too fast.

Or too slow, he'd have breazed between them if he was twenty k's faster.

[Maha]

He'd have avoided the accident if he had left home a few miniutes earlier, the time that it took him to set up recording bullshit he uses...

[Katman]

Or too slow, he'd have breazed between them if he was twenty k's faster.

There were probably a few options to choose from Drew.

Pity he was too distracted to be able to choose any of them.

[scumdog]

Or too slow, he'd have breazed between them if he was twenty k's faster.

Or he wouldn't have had to worry about them at all if he wasn't there...

And breeze does not have an 'a' in it.

Fucksakes.

He should have been looking for dodgy drivers to film ... he would have noticed sooner ...

There you go Grammar Nazi, have fun

[Daffyd]

who else noticed that camera landed in exactly the right spot

Me! Me! Me!

[chasio]

I'm pleased for you. Me, I'd prefer to to take actions that will enhance my chances of avoiding a collision, rather than possibly enhance the ability of others to drive less like a fuckwit by seeing something that is already there to be seen. I have on average 1-2 near-SMIDSY's a week when driving the work car with fuckwits not seeing a car coming towards them (2 this week). Do I weave the car within the lane? No, I slow down and sometimes even stop, like I did this week in my own street on the way to work. Treat 'em like they're certifiably blind I say, coz a lot of them sure drive like they are.

Hey, it would be boring if we all agreed though, right?

If you read it again you'll notice I didn't say that was all I'd do, just that I wouldn't include the full beam option as I have found the weave effective in similar circumstances (e.g. not at full tilt, as indeed he wasn't). We agree about most of that lot and I do (and have done) the same, including coming to a stop. Now come here and give us all a

I get "fucksakes" for miss spelling a word now?

I really can't be upsetting you enough these days snake!
