Interesting that this thread seems to be dying a death just when Dashcams Exposed are seemingly pumping out a compilation every couple of days.
The first one, the absolute prick totally deserved it but that's no way for a jobbing driver to behave:
Would love to have known what happened between the pedestrian and Merc driver at 7:36 after the camera car passed, he did NOT look happy! The behaviour of the Merc driver didn't look like they were planning to get out and profusely apologise either...The first one, the absolute prick totally deserved it but that's no way for a jobbing driver to behave:

Are you referring to the lorry driver and ranger Rover clip?, looks the lorry driver isn't hand held filming but is wearing a pair of RayBan meta smart sunglasses
This clip, so the ray bans have built in video?Edited by Vipers on Sunday 5th May 17:55

Yes they have video facility built in, if you watch the footage again the camera follows where he is looking, a couple of my friends have them for incar footage and it takes a bit of getting used too when watching playback from their perspective
A client showed me his Rayban Meta glasses - I’ve got to say they’re impressive bits of kit, amazing video and speakers sound great too. They seem surprisingly cheap for what you get.

My bet is that the trucker pulled out of the truckstop, which is just prior to where the dashcam footage starts, in front of the knobber and then antagonised the situation by sticking to the 30 limit through the industrial estate.
Another 30-60 seconds of footage at the beginning would reveal all.
I'm surprised at that comment - there's no way a 40 tonner should be speeding though an industrial estate. Another 30-60 seconds of footage at the beginning would reveal all.

I suspect the answer is "Bradford", but why would the householders/passers by just let those involved just walk away?Sure I might not tackle three scrotes by myself, but there were enough bystanders so this wouldn't be an issue.

You try it and then report back here with how it went for you.

I'm torn there, because the proximate cause of the accident was (arguably) the combination of him travelling with too high a closing/overtaking speed on the rest of the traffic and the muppet in the camera car just pulling out without indicating or looking.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13450965/...
...so on balance I really don't think this warranted a jail sentence. Yes I feel bad for his passenger, but given that there's a lot of other VERY antisocial and deliberately violent acts apparently don't warrant jail sentences in this country, it would have felt excessive.

What an absolute cretin to crash like that.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13450965/...
It's implied the cam knobber pulled out without signalling but it should have been very obvious to any driver who isn't a crayon chewer that the DCW was going to want to come out as he approached that lorry, and 90MPH on a wide motorway with light traffic is hardly pushing the edge of human achievement. Pathetic and a real example of the total lack of any roadcraft most people display.
Most of the time I think I've spotted when some mouthbreather I'm about to catch up with and overtake will need to come out to overtake or brake for a slower vehicle in their lane long before they do, and taken it into account. Crashing at a snails pace Volvo in this vid should have already moved into L4/3 before DCW makes his lane change.

.His speed was inappropriate for his number of braincells.
Regardless of the camera car indicating, it was the most obvious, slow, deliberate lane change. Meatus mouth was just trying to prove a point, which endangered his mate and has left her with permanent damage.
Also he looks like Wayne Rooney and Jimmy Somerville had a child together.
