I saw that. Then I googled the area where the school is (if you can call it a school), not surprised.
Operation snap should do it, I imagine they'll make the licensing officer aware as well if they deam it bad enoughWatched that earlier, she's got a new video up as well, some of the driving is so bad, it's got to be a rage-bait account. There's one clip where she undertakes a car on solid hatched markings just before a lane splits off to the left, and then gets irate when the drive she's just undertaken starts to move into the new lane!
I've heard the argument that "it's safer, because if you have a problem/lose control/etc. you have more space on each side". This makes perfect sense. After all, wouldn't you rather swerve into an empty lane, than hit the barrier/verge? What they of course fail to grasp is that the "space" on each side has a significant chance of being occupied by another vehicle, being as it's a live lane and all...
Had this gem yesterday - that good old taxi classic, the: "2-indicator-flash-gives-me-right-of-way" manoeuvre, could have been nasty if there was oncoming traffic. The driver was staring rigidly ahead the whole time, absolutely intent on not making eye contact. Do I report this to the police, Dudley taxi licencing, or both?
(sorry about the weird loop, something to do with how my dashcam saves "protected" videos)
This was on a two-lane dual carriageway though. So the choice isn't "empty space or barrier/verge", the choice is "barrier or verge". In that case, I'd much rather be on the relative safety on the verge, rather than stuck in the outside lane. Even if there are three lanes, I still don't think it's a good argument; three lanes probably means you have a hard shoulder which is the safest escape route (no traffic to worry about, as you say) on your left anyway, and again, better to be able to get there, than possibly be stuck in the outside lane with traffic approaching.I've heard the argument that "it's safer, because if you have a problem/lose control/etc. you have more space on each side".

These people had 4D plates Haggis. Stop defending them!
My "This makes perfect sense" was entirely sarcastic 
Lol, got an email back from the licencing body already:
"I have spoken to the driver concerned. He said it was a genuine mistake as he didn’t see your vehicle coming round the bend until he had already pulled out. I have spoken to him about his driving and informed him that the complaint will be recorded against his file. I intend to take no further action on this occasion."

The video clearly shows I was already half way on the other side of the road and you can hear me start to accelerate past him before he starts moving...
A47 duel carriageway W of swaffham the nearside carriageway is broken up in a number of places E&W direction ... so I understand people who may drive on the offside lane
but sadly few do.
I hate 3 lane roundabouts. I've also noticed that juke and quashqui drivers tend to be pretty poor in general, although thats become standard for the SUV crowd.There's some worryingly aggressive and stupid people on the road. I enter a roundabout today, I'm in the middle of three lanes that goes straight over and merges into said road, the left can obviously go left and straight on, the right hand lane is only for going into a shopping centre car park.
The lights have just turned green to go onto the round about, no one is in the middle lane so I'm relatively faster than the left hand traffic just pulling away.
I'm ahead of a white Nissan Quashqai and there's a nice distance between that car, and the car ahead of me. But said Quashqai decides randomly he wants to accelerate and then blares his horn because he has to brake in order to not crash into my near side rear quarter. Genuinely, my manoeuvre was spot on and it wasn't like I sent it and had to slam my brakes on to fit into an ever closing gap.
Not sure how he thought I was in the wrong. The merge is really wide and long, and the road were merging into is past 12 o'clock so those in the middle lane I'm in don't have to move across per say. In fact on Google maps the merge turn arrows come in from the left.
This morning it was foggy and people were driving with no lights, sidelights or just front DRL's yet again. Years ago on my motorbike I told a woman she didn't have lights on in the fog, she just said, it's OK my lights are Automatic.
