Bad Driving thread

[Tom427]

Two days ago I turn left into the side street of Cavendish. There is a parking bay and I stop beside the next car, indicate and engage reverse well ahead of the car behind me to parallel park. Of course, this next car pulls closer and I can't move into that bay.

She blows her horn while moving forward. I reverse half a meter more. She blows her horn. Remember, there was enough space initially behind me.

Now I am standing at an angle. She blows her horn. I stop the motor, ready to get out (hazards on..) and walk to the mall. Perhaps open the bonnet to simulate a break down...

Now plenty of cars behind us, coming from around the bend. Finally she reverses half a meter that I can park. Blowing her horn.

Government number plate, big SUV... Probably a neighbour state.

I try this again on tuesday, maybe she is there as well - lol

This is a daily occurrence at the N12 onramp in Alberton.

Muppets like this need to be dealt with before they take innocent people out...

Many make this mistake, luckily without any serious consequences...

Two sets of idiots this morning.

How do you guys post video's ? I tried as an attachment but no go.

I use YouTube.

 

[Obieone]

I use YouTube.

Is that the only way?

Is that the only way?

There may be other ways, I am not sure, I have been using YouTube for years.

Ok thanks.

That's the best quality while not forcing the forum to host it way.

 

[The_Librarian]

Is that the only way?

Yep, just keep in mind not to use your real name. Use another youtube account instead.

 

[isie]

Is that the only way?

im sure there is - but youtube is the easiest and it has some nice tools
and as @The_Librarian said create a seperate account

Any actual bad driving lately?

Hell yeah.

What is the procedure at a 4-way stop and you want to turn right? Do oncoming traffic have the right of way, or must they wait for you to turn right first before they can proceed?

I'm now confused. Two incidents with oncoming traffic not giving way to me when I'm turning right, and I've stopped first. Now I'm unsure of whether I'm in the wrong or what.

I inadvertently ignored the yield sign and almost crashed into a white BMW320D this morning while turning onto the motorway. The lady driver got quite a shock since I was literally cm's away from her passenger door. I did honk my horn to let her know i was in the wrong.

 

[supersunbird]

Hell yeah.

You obviously have right of way.

[The_Librarian]

Need a new dashcam. Previous one went to the Land of Null.

First to the line has right of way as I understand it, same as for a mini circle.
