      Dash Cam Owners Australia's 'Best of 2020' video is here!

      At the very least, you owe it to yourself to watch that first clip. What on earth. . . was that man being chased on a motorcycle in his underwear by a ute?

          That 3rd one...I expect that nearly every time I go through a roundabout. Always keep your head on a swivel when you see a large vehicle blocking visibility like that.

          On walkabout. Back soonish.

            Plus the truck driver who struck the RV; yes, the RV driver was an idiot, but the truck driver should know better than to hang out in the blind spot of a vehicle like that with a turn coming up.

            And what was the last one? Maybe I need to watch it on YT where I can see full screen, but I had no idea what she was cursing about.

                @just-jeepin I always assume people can't use roundabouts but I also haven't encountered large vehicles on one blocking visibility like that before. Good to know. Most of these the driver could be driving more defensively at least.

                      @whoistheleader That motorcycle rider must have been drunk. What a weird reaction. The Mazda 3 guy that was yelling at the flatbed truck got what he deserved. I was happy when he tried to close his door and it wouldn't close.

                          Exactly. I laughed when it showed him trying to close the door and it wouldn't close.

                            Does EVERYONE in Australia who owns a Falcon or Commodore ute drive like that? Because it seems like whenever one shows up in a dash cam compilation they're always doing things like that, never just appearing as part of the normal traffic flow that has nothing to do with the incident...

                              If Oz had US style firearms laws, it would probably make the worst of the US look like an amusement park.

                                @whoistheleader that was a pretty cavalier attitude from the guy who passed the rolled ute. Sure, the ute driver was driving like an absolute dickhead, but if you're the only person around, you should render assistance. I think under certain circumstances, you can be charged if you don't.

                                The B-double drift was epic.

                                What happened with the blue car and the motorcycle? I guess the car either cut the motorcycle off, or the motorcyclist thought he had.

                                  @streetsofperth Definitely. I was shocked when he didn't actually stop.

                                  The motorcyclist sideswiped the car driver by being very bad at lane splitting. The car driver was unreasonably angry but still the motorcyclist was in the wrong.

                                    @nowhere I think the answer is yes. Basically like if bro truck drivers actually had handling but unpredictable handling.

                                        @whoistheleader ah, that makes sense about the motorcyclist, thanks. I think everyone overreacted in that situation. I find it kind of amusing how many of these dashcam owners catch their own bad behaviour on camera, even if they weren't doing anything wrong on the road.
