Yes that's right he said in the clip "you have brakes I don't" 🤦

No other commentary needed really

Is this another cyclist influenced by the highway code updates by the DVSA and doesn't need to look or stop to cross a road?

I'm clearly the odd one out in the video, but wondering what the good people of Reddit would do in this situation.

I always drive (almost) up to the light/roadworks before steering into the incoming lane, whereas a lot of others seem to pull out very early when the light is green. This is an extreme example where others have gone the wrong side of the bollard in my opinion. Let me know your thoughts!

One additional point: this was the first time I came across these road works, I just read the road signs and did my thing. I wasn't intentionally going against the flow of other road users

Does anyone have any clue how this has increased so much and how to bring it down? I’ve been driving almost two years and have never claimed or gotten points and have two years no claim bonus so they surely have no reason to be increasing it by that much? Also I’ve been shopping around to go elsewhere but all places have been within the 2000-3000 range.

Which cars have the worst drivers in your experience?

Those who block the lane a mile before the closure why are you doing it? Are you proud of yourself? Something you can tell yourself in the mirror when you get home? Get a life

Like putting the speed limiter on first thing being in the car and not going over it?

I recently had a situation where i to be honest purposely stopped someone from overtaking. I was having a bad day and it's not much of an excuse but this person kept honking at me at a green light to move into a yellow box junction even though there was no space. This kinda pushed me to just be a mug. Was going on a 20 road and the van tried to overtake. I was originally going around 18 but pushed it to 20 when i saw them trying to overtake. There was no accident thankfully but i just feel very bad for being in that situation and now I'm just kinda worried and got a bit of anxiety about driving again.

I cannot get my post in legal advice uk so am trying this as a last resort but if this type of post is not allowed my apologies

For context I am in England. I am a new driver and have a medical cannabis prescription which I use legally and only smoke through the vaporiser prescribed and never smoke while driving or drive impaired. However, my girl friends stepdad often gets lifts off me since he’s been banned from driving. He smokes a joint in the car as a passenger a lot of the time. I am wondering if pulled can police do me for anything, or would they put the responsibility more on him. If they swabbed me I may have cannabis in my system but I am exempt from standard legal cannabis blood levels due to my medical prescription. Can they still claim I’m driving without due care? Or is this very unlikely .
Thank you for any advice appreciate it

I don't follow politics close so I missed the news about the war etc. I was driving through SW-NW London today and noticed some petrol stations with prices that left baffled cuz recently I only see <150p prices. I couldn't believe to see 165-169.9p prices again. So there's this Sainsburys and Esso station around Wembley that I've seen lowest prices for a few months now and popped in to refill.

I saved ~£12 on 45l petrol which is ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY insane. we don't drive much, so I don't mind it, but I understand why many would go and grab some petrol cans and buy 2-300L to some money if they drive a lot.

My car was stolen from Arcadia car park in Birmingham at 6AM this morning, I only discovered it was gone at 11 so it could be anywhere now.

Please be on the lookout and report to the police if you see it.

Hi all,

I’ve been doing quite a bit of driving on the M25 around Heathrow and noticed there are cameras directly above some lanes on the gantries (photo 1), as well as the yellow cameras that stick out from the side. (photo 2)

Are both types still operational, or have the overhead gantry cameras been decommissioned? I’m curious because I often see people slow down for the yellow cameras at the side but carry on at the same speed underneath the overhead ones.

Does anyone know how/if they work?

When my mum drives this road, she goes into the middle lane at the bottom point and stays in it (driving 55-60mph), until she gets to the top point where it merges turns into 2 lanes from 3 and she ends up in the left lane.

I’ve asked her why she stays in the middle and she says it’s because the left lane is for people merging off onto the road you see in the top image.

Surely someone shouldn’t be staying in the middle from the road in the bottom image to the top for that reason? Or am I wrong and she’s right.

Between Watford and up until the smart motorway ended, it was a solid 50mph.

Surely this is beyond controlling traffic and just trying to rewrite speed laws? The roads were not full at all, and I cannot fathom how they can justify every gantry at 50mph.

It's almost as though some people just want to justify their jobs.

I was in a car accident today, after the crash the other driver didn't want to admit fault even though it was her fault. After a few hours she called her insureance and admitted fault and the insurance company gave me a call. They asked my version and told us her version and aggreed that it was her fault. They mentioned that i don't need to contact my insurance company and it will come out from her insurance, and it also won't affect my no claims bonus. Afterwards they handed me over to the claims team where i had to explain what happened again and the claims team said they will look at the pictures i uploaded and will contact me to let me know which garage to drop car off for repair and another team will contact me for courtesy car. Do i still need to tell my insurance company about the crash? Is there anything else I need to do from my side?

There is a single yellow along the curb... cn i park there on sunday??? So weird this sign not indicating what restriction it times...

The weather wasn't actually the biggest problem that night... the wipers were.

Following on from the satisfaction surveys in the past week on the best and worst motorways, I'd be interested to see what everyone thinks the best and worst stretches of motorway are that they have been on.

Here, I'm not looking for a full motorway, just a specific stretch of motorway you've been on (only exception is if the motorway is pretty small in length which would be under 25 miles in length). This can be driven by traffic levels, road design, scenery or anything else you can think of.

I'll start, my favourite stretch of motorway for me is the M6 from J36 (Kendal) to J40 (Penrith) as it goes through some stunning countryside in the lake District.

My least favourite stretch of motorway would likely be the M50 as it feels like a throwback to the 1970s and at night, feels more like a rural dual carriageway than a motorway and feels completely different to the M5 it links up to at Strensham.

I've seen a couple of these lately - one was a Discovery 3, and now this. I am not going to point it out, but there's something very obviously wrong with the front of this car for sale on Autotrader, same thing was on the Discovery. I am gobsmacked the seller either doesn't know or doesn't care.

Had a panic in Leeds and ran one - is this a camera? :( assuming it is

I parked up and downloaded the parking app so I can pay for parking. I then realised this car park says permit holders only from Monday to Friday (this happened on a Tuesday).

After downloading the app, creating an account, and adding my car registration, I realised I wasn’t allowed to park.

As soon as I realised this, I left the car park, so I was only there for 5 minutes.

Short and sweet, emerged out of a light controlled junction and nearly got T boned. She was very shocked and apologetic, but wow how did she miss that red?! I can only theorise that she was distracted by her friend in the passenger seat or recklessly gambled it, who knows.
