Tony's Dashcam - 2 x idiots on the road #208

We have two idiots on the road on this infamous Thickthorn roundabout. No further description needed... it's pretty self explanatory. :)

Check out my NEW video endcard - hope you like it! :D

Looks like you're right! Just looked up the car reg details and it came back as Audi A4.

My bad. :) Thanks for letting me know.

[Glosed]

I'd actually say that's a pretty valid excuse. I don't see dangers in accelerating quickly in this situation and any additionally burnt fuel is saved by not having to stop at the lights.

[tsutton]

It's classed as "reckless driving". It looked like he also did a drifting action too, but I'm not 100% sure.

You want 'harmless fun'? GO BOWLING!

[TimMSUK]

It's all wheel drive so he'd struggle, very grippy cars.

'If you don't endanger anyone else', you got lucky?!...
...one day ya luck runs out!

[adysayswakeupffs]

Maybe the van driver was relying on the BMW driver for directions (following) but the BMW driver didn't like the van driver too much. lol

[ShortieLeeroy]

Good job another car from the left did´nt blast away like the Audi.

[Crana]

Pretty sure that's an Audi, also it didn't half take off, probably late for a business meeting

[barrkel]

Nothing wrong with what the Audi did IMHO. I do the same thing on the bike all the time, taking advantage of the acceleration to get through lights when I know the timing. He didn't put anyone in danger; and depending on the roundabout, if the roads off it are all NSL, usually the roundabout technically is too.

[tsutton]

But it's still classed as 'reckless driving' in the police's view.

[tsutton]

Yep, I found that out the first thing I uploaded the video and all of the comments here LOL.

Cheers anyway :D

The Audi driver probably knows that you can get through both sets if you shoot off the line... no excuse though really is it.

[DontDentMyCarNYC]

The blue Audi racing to beat the light and the van not caring just drives through it. silly people.

[tsutton]

Please watch my Dashcam #90 and then come back to this... would you say this is a good move by the Audi driver?

NOPE!

[ShadowSniperUK]

I'ts called reckless driving. Wether or not theres other cars infront.

[Alex__Butcher]

One day, he will stall it and look like an absolute idiot

[datshiny]

I knew it was an audi too coz of the tail lights, as for the van driver, total DICK! Do u drive in the city much t1sutton? I see many idiots on the roads there but I havent got a camera to record ;)
