I wish I'd just used mine. Had one car leave a T junction in front of me without looking, missing me by inches (my right of way). Then a car in front of me turned left, into a 3 lane 1-way road (heading the wrong way/against traffic), then two cars flashing me to leave a junction ' doing me a favour ' then getting mad when I didn't leave the junction because cars were passing them on the inside meaning I'd have done the same thing the first driver did in this little tale.

I was glad to get home. Bring on automated cars, people are nuts and getting worse all the time. :thumbsdown:

Been driving round Tenerife the last week, need to bring a dashcam next time I'm here just to show how these idiots think roundabouts work...

Still not worked out a safe way to navigate round their total lack of understanding

Looks like someone lost or unfamiliar with the area and not particularly confident behind the wheel

I didn't think that was that bad. I am a big gutted, got an accident on cam yesterday and was a witness for a guy in a truck. Got home and the dash cam had over written the footage.... :x

Camera was full of locked recordings from the impact detector going off all the time at home.

Lesson learned.

I encountered an old lady driving the wrong way round a traffic island a few months ago, how we missed each other I will never know. Unfortunately I don't have a dashcam.

We came face to face as we passed, she gave me a filthy look as if it was my fault.
