I tend to wonder what a DPD interview would be like... you turn up, drive around the yard and they notice you can't drive and say "when can you start" 😂😂😂

That junction with 4 give away signs is insane. 😮

your car at the end is a 1937 Standard Flying Ten. Bonnie & Clyde were killed in a 1934 Ford Model 40B Fordor Deluxe V8 that they had stolen in 1934.

The 4 way junction without any indication is unusual but when I was learning to drive 60 years ago my instructor advised me that at any junction with blind spots you should make use of reflections in shop windows to check blind spots for traffic. Certainly more difficult these days with so many shops having shutters but worth remembering

At 8:50, I could hear your indicator sounding in good time. The mitsubishi, I believe it was, should have known better. Conversely, I've seen people giving the impression that they are going straight ahead, only to then put on their indicator as the lights change. . .most infuriating!!

12:45 , we don't drive on the left , I've always believed we drive on WHAT'S left

The guy that got behind you at the lights. I’ll agree with you that 95% of the time he’s being a numpty, but if he’s second in line & the road layout is how it is there he is assuming you are going into the box to turn right so he can pass you that way. Anyone further back in “your” lane that wants to go straight is a numpty, especially if there are other cars turning right behind you.

Who has the right-of-way at 4 way stop in the UK? At four-way intersections with stop signs for all drivers, vehicles should proceed in the order of first to arrive, first to proceed. If you come to a four-way at the same time as another vehicle or vehicles, yield to any vehicle on your right.

Looks like the trees down your way are more mobile than the England players. What a pile of shit it's been.

I drove through the Mad Mile and That Roundabout today. I was anticipating action but was utterly disappointed.

7:26 "Always an Aldi" dammit, Lidl...

The only thing worse than a bike in front and that is a bunch of bikes in front that are determined to stay as a bunch. 🚲

08:24 looks like the chitty chitty bang bang car

She could smell your batteries burning, that's how she knew.

3:51 you'd be surprised how much tyre noise carries.

Greetings from Casablanca Morocco to my beloved nation, the Brits ❤

My first visit to your channel, but won't be the last. Your commentary is like listening to myself with a different accent 😁😁

at the clip with the traffic lights you turned right with. i feel that one is different because you have you right turn box instead of waiting in the lane to turn right. so you wouldn't have been in his way for long and the road markings do say that he can go straight there. it's a use all road space sinario

Due to the restricted sight line to the right, that second approach you made to the 4 way give way should be a stop

That's a proper who dares wins junction in the thumbnail

That 4 way junction will never work in the UK, especially in the London area. I spent a couple of years in South Africa (a long time ago) and 4 Way Stops were common. They were just like that junction and worked very well.

That four-way junction has 'give way' lines and a black rectangle in the middle instead of a round white blob so obviously: It must be a Squareabout.

I have an inkling the car @2.23 is a Lagonda,due to the shape of the grille badge,although at first I thought it was an Alvis,so what do I know!

5:00 I believe these junctions are treated like mini roundabouts (just without the markings) where those who arrive first directly opposite you and to your right, are given priority. Like all junctions however, these should still be approached with caution but especially due to the limited visibility as you pointed out. This could be the reason a roundabout doesn't exist here due to the blind spots and opportunists. Doesn't stop the driver at 6:00 taking a chance though...

I lived as a child in the fifties 200yd to the left of the give-way crossroads as you were facing it in the latter part of the clip. In my day the road going across was Lower Road, while you were coming out of Church Road and facing the High Street. Because Lower Road was continuous I would feel it to be more important and have priority while the other roads are shorter connecting roads, though it is no longer marked that way. I bet the woman that crossed in front of you thought the same.

Those 3 or 4 give way junctions are quite common in Ireland

7:45 Dangerous overtake. Dangerous driver.

Great videos ❤

5:56, we Dutch would have taken the signs away. We have the rule: right goes first. So at 5:56 the car coming from the right has priority. With the cyclists it went okay: you went right and they went right. We have many of such crossings. Because it has all the same signs, they and the white striping can be taken away. Less maintenance costs.

Only you could feature a Squareabout. (And I love Lidl. Especially the middle aisle)

The 4 way junction at Bookham is a pain. I`ve been through it a few times, and I always treat it as a first arriving is first to go. Unfortunately, and it`s usually some posh Surrey senorita in a 4X4 barge, who thinks as they have a big motor with an equally big ego who goes anyway. I`ve met these junctions in America and it`s always first there has right of way. And God help you if you get it wrong.

8:11 - I guess you could call that a "Lidl" mistake...

4:15 Should be the order that you arrive I would think, same as a 4-way stop junction in many countries.

@2.24 It's Chitty Chitty bang bang in disguise 😂 🚙

Watching this video later than most so apologies for my tardiness… 4 way give ways are an interesting one but the most important thing to remember is you are giving way to vehicles already on the carriageway. So if someone enters before you then you give way. That doesn’t mean, like some do with roundabouts, you can accelerate to be there first as that is just idiotic One other thing is that from your perspective, it is a cross junction so you should be giving way to anyone that will be crossing your path from either side One last consideration is, despite being marked, is this the same as an unmarked junction where nobody has ultimate priority? After all when traffic lights aren’t working it becomes an unmarked junction despite there being markings 🤷🏻‍♂️ Whatever the answer, it is designed to slow everyone down on approach and make everyone more aware of each other 👍

I would have thought a 4 way give way would be first come first served and if you arrive at the same time then give way to the right

4-way stops are common in South Africa, and also in the USA I believe. It is quite simple to use, first come - first go. In German grid-pattern town centres you give way to the right, also simple. It just requires a bit of consideration for others, which, from watching your videos, is a rare commodity on British roads!

2:20 From what I can tell, this seems to be a Lagonda 2 Litre Speed Model (high chassis). 21:00 That's just your standard car. A 1937 Standard Flying Nine to be precise 😅 Research tells me the Bonnie & Clyde car was a Ford Model 40 B Fordor Deluxe V-8 but it does look similar from the front.

I wonder if the 4 way give way with the squareabout in the middle is an experiment? They're quite rare but you will find road layouts set up as an experiment to see if they work. Most disappear after a couple of years never to be seen again, but some go on to be the norm. One of the places that advance stop lines for bikes was tried as an experiment was on the Uxbridge Road between Hayes and Hillingdon - those obviously were counted a success. The experimental ones in Hayes were for bicycles _and_ solo motorcycles, the latter having been dropped form the design that was rolled out. Not that the 20 minuters on scooters seem to have realised this.

The petrol head moment car two looked like an old Rolls Royce... i could be wrong!!!

4:49 Whoever arrives at the junction first should have the option to make the first move. If you come to a four-way at the same time as another vehicle or vehicles, yield to any vehicle on your right. edit: that junction needs changing

The grey car at the end was a 1937 Standard with a 1057cc petrol engine. As for Plod at 18:14 they have so much crap on their Joe 90 "utility" belts, they can hardly move their arms to turn the wheel. Hence the very many point turn.

4:30 its a Squareabout ;P hahaha, Always give way to those who got there before you unlike Roundabouts where its priority to the right.

another great video mate

An old way of seeing who has priority at a junction , ( 4.40 ), is to look at camber of road. If your camber goes across junction and other sides right n left are against yours, then you are on primary road across junction and they give way to you. I was taught this for when snow falls and road markings covered. Look at curve of snow coverage on junction and see which direction it links up to. If against your camber then other road has priority and you give way.

Thanks The London Dash Cam 🚕😊👍

I'm looking forward to the live drive Tony 😊

The 4 way give-way, is supposed to be a calming measure usually where it's not practical to stick a roundabout, mind they'd ignore that too! I like the live drives, although I usually pick them up later on.

If the clip car at 3.00 is the chitty look alike, then the original car was built by Count Louis Zborowski in the early 1920s.

Great stuff as always stu some really nice motors an the van is a ford thames love an respect ❤

4:25 is effectively a roundabout without the actual markings for a roundabout - it's a very strange (and frankly stupid) way of laying out a junction, and because it's not an actual roundabout, I don't believe there are any official rules regarding its usage, probably because the original legislators never predicted that anyone would ever lay out a junction like that

Maybe the Postwoman's Google maps mightve zoomed out after going over the bump so she's quickly zooming it back in

Always give to the right. Some junctions should have stop-sings

Re the pedestrian and knowing that Tony is behind them. Electric cars make a lot of tyre noise. When I'm cycling I can hear them behind me.

Surely the 4 way give way should be treated as a mini roundabout

Tony, thanks for highlighting the communication that us good cyclists indulge in.

7:49 seeing that, I would turn very slow to the right....🐌

Have they changed the advice in the HC on walking in the road? I've been in Wales and the vast majority seem to walk with the traffic coming from behind them rather than walking towards the traffic. Then they expect you to walk around them when they meet people that do know what you are supposed to do.

@3:59 Pedestrian is likely to be a School Teacher. They've got this ability to turn round in a millisecond to unerringly throw a piece of chalk at the misbehaving muppet....... At least; that's how it used to be in School 🤣🤣🤣. Subsequent timestamps not appended - Sorry. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 roundabout - please don't remind us about the shoddy performances. Watching my Cat take a dump is far more interesting 😅😅😅. Mrs Magoo.... nah. I agree. It doesn't sound right. Here's a possible alternative...... Olive - from On The Buses - as she couldn't see 💩 rofl. Good one as always, Tony.

06:00 Would it not make more sense for that 4-way give way to be configured as a 4-way stop - at least then all drivers could better assess the situation. Still with you though, crazy like it is...

Here in NZ we occasionally get 4 way Stop signs, (I haven't seen it with Give Way, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist), and general rule is straight ahead traffic has priority over right turning traffic. If vehicles coming from opposing directions both want to enter the same road the left turner goes before the right turn, and you wouldn't turn left or right pulling in front of a vehicle going straight ahead.

You can hear the tires of a car coming up behind you

8:00 the highway code says you 'should not' overtake across a junction, or use the hatched area, but the give way markings are a 'must'. However, there was no issue, speeds and distances were ok.

Weird junction really needs a mini roundabout so it makes sense. I’d give way to the right as a rule. As for the guy who went through on the mini roundabout, he did apologise as he probably didn’t see you & I agree that an apology alleviates a situation. Mistakes happen. As long as there’s no issue, fair enough

8.52 To be fair, you were turning right and if the car behind going straight on had stayed behind you, you should move over to the right turn lane so leaving him room to continue straight on. I don't think the 2nd car, the Mitsubishi, did anything wrong.

15:10 Fantastic segue there from football to cyclists! 🤣🤣🤣

I googled the four way give way situation. Its common in the US but "doesn't exist" in the UK. It might be worth contacting your local Highways department as I suspect this is an illegal set-up. Its not in the Highway Code that's for sure.

10:37 I would still think it’s priority to the right otherwise it would cause a right problem if everyone thinks that they have the right to go first from all sides.

A 4-way give way is actually unlawful - the law clearly says that you can't have give ways on all sides of a junction. A mini roundabout would be better. As for who has priority, I would treat it as an unmarked junction and just negotiate with the other drivers on a case-by-case basis - don't assume there are any rules (because there aren't any).

6:58 If you are a bicycle, that VW van doesn't stop.

7:37 they were wrong to make that overtake.

@2:21 - it really looks like a 1934 Alvis Speed 20 SC Vanden Plas Tourer, or another similar Alvis, the bonnet ornament and the bar across the grille is the give away, I might be wrong, but I do think this is one type of Alvis or another?

Who has priority at 4:35 ? - Usually whoever arrives there first

10:20 DPD: Don't Please Don't

FYI for other people watching - if the video quality looks worse than usual - check it; YT dropped my usual 1440P to 720; why?? Certainly not because I have bandwidth issues, I am using full fibre.

Definitely should have made it difficult for the car that got behind you when turning right at the lights, call it education.

That was a Lagonda Rapide Tony 👍

The four-way junction is in Great Bookham, Surrey, junction of Lower Road and High Street if anyone wants to have a look on Google Maps or even IRL.

8:10 There should be an island there to stop people from doing that really As we know, paint doesn't work

Many thanks for sharing with us Tony. Always great to see quality driving!!!!!!!! 😅😅😅

There’s no give way anymore…..it’s everyone for themselves🙄

4 Yields is a 4 way stop with priority to the RIGHT

Rule of the road give way to traffic coming from your right

If a mini roundabout is less expensive than traffic light how cheap is a squareabout?

Gray cars a standard flying 9 regestered in march 1937

The last few months, i've been making an effort to try and not let people wind me up with there dumbass driving. I've tried to be patient and understanding when people do stupid things. And guess what ? I'll get where i'm going just the same but it will be a more pleasant journey and i will feel lot more chilled out. 😊

😮 Tony we got pulled out on by a lady who almost didn't look at us

Good old Dangerous Parcel Delivery 😢

It's just a square roundabout

Day of the triffids

The petrol head moments are , firstly a MG and secondly , a Morgan ( possibly).

@19:27 You can't Bark there sir!

at 17:40 PHONES IN CRADLES - Tony, you don't need to ask anymore, because you know the answer 😉 But for your viewers: The Law in a Nutshell: The source of these regulations is - Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) Regulations 1986 (with amendments) Regultion 110 - Handling a mobile device If you handle a mobile device at any time, even just for a moment, when the mobile device is in use, you are committing an offence, where the penalty is 6 points. Regulation 110 does prescribe any restrictions on how a mobile device maybe used when not held in the hand. But Regulation 109 does restrict what a mobile phone can be used for. Regulation 109 - Viewing Information on a Display Screen [Please see below for more details on Regulation 109] Regulation 109 restricts what a driver may view on a mobile phone. For 98% of drivers, a mobile phone fixed in a cradle, may only be used for SatNav purposes. Owners of a VW Up for example, may use the mobile phone with the VW App to view the status of the vehicle's equipment. ***************************************** Viewing a list of telephone contacts, recent calls, lists of messages, viewing music playlists, messages with a customer on the Uber App, Facetime etc. is an offence! ***************************************** Typing on Screen of a Mobile Phone As far as I am aware, there is no specific regulation banning typing on the screen, however, if a driver was considered to be distracted by this, they may be prosecuted for careless driving, or similar offence. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Full explanation of Regulation 109: Too many people, when they read the title "Television Sets", can only imagine that box that sits in the corner of a living room! A "television set" is a device that can display an image derived from a different location. "tele-" = transport from another locaton "-vision" = state of being able to see Therefore, Television set = able to see an image transported from another location. Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) - the original regulation was restricted to a CRT display only. I have been informed by the Police, due to a Court case, this regulation is now deemed to include all types of display screen. In paragraph 2 of Regulation 109, there are four criterion used to decide whether a display screen must comply with Reg. 109. A display screen need only meet with one criteria to qualify. A typical "smartphone" meets all four criteria. In paragraph 1 of Reg 109, it lists four categories of information that a driver may view on a screen. If the driver is viewing anything else, the driver is committing an offence. a) view the status of the vehicle or its equipment - [Engine running/Gear selected/Volume of fuel/Tyre pressures etc] b) view information about the road where the vehicle is located - [Road temp/Elevation/Vehicle Pitch or Roll/Depth of Water etc] c) view the vehicle's proximty cameras - [Reversing camera] d) view navigation - [SatNav] And that is it, a driver may not view anything else! Regulation 109 has impacted the Police when using an ANPR system in their Police vehicles. An emergency amendment was passed in 2020 to allow the Police to use ANPR in Police vehicles. Regultion 109 impacts all drivers.

Why wouldn't they put a roundabout there?

And the one at the end was a Standard (later became Triumph) but no idea which model 😁

7:38 No question, the green felt frog overtaking at the entrance to LIDL was wrong. The chevroned area is there _precisely_ because the road planners _don't_ want people overtaking there, precisely because of the likelihood of someone turning right as you were. The only reason they won't have used _solid_ white lines there (which would make it an offence to enter the chevroned area except in an emergency or to avoid an accident) is that LIDL will undoubtedly have HGVs turning in and out that will, because of their length, need to stray into the chevroned area to make the turn. Rules 167 and 130 apply.

Bonnie & Clyde died in a 1934 Ford model 40 B Fordor deluxe with leather seats, 3.6litre V8 flathead, thanks Google 😂😂😂😂

To the left when entering a roundabout in the US. Maybe things wouldn’t be so bad if everyone drove on the right side of the road.

The 4 give way junction is give way to everyone 😆 the person who sensibly uses it and is on first should have right of way😅

14:58 One of my favourites: thats not a mini roundabout silly! It’s got extra bricks in the surface so it’s not a mini roundabout or a roundabout.
