Good-Carbuyer 1st Gear March 3, 2012 Share March 3, 2012 I sped up because it's stationery from the junction. It's takes time from 2nd gear when the car still have quite a lot of momentum to slow down. I practice defensive driving now, but the BMW was cutting in too close. My car camera is wide angle. From my seat cannot even see the license plate of the BMW when he cut in. You can be better with more defensive driving practice ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good-Carbuyer 1st Gear March 3, 2012 Share March 3, 2012 Isn't it wrong to lane change within junction? Perhaps I do not understand what is wrong, if done without endangering anyone. I believe it is only when done in disorderly manner that it endangered others Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itsec 2nd Gear March 4, 2012 Share March 4, 2012 isnt that obvious is the BMW driver's fault even the 2nd time... wide angle camera will give u the wrong perception. it may look far from camera but the distance between TS and BMW is very near...

Thunder7890 Neutral Newbie March 4, 2012 Share March 4, 2012 Bro, I think you are too slow to stay comfort in the fast lane and can see that the gap is too far between you and the front vehicle even the lorry can drives faster than you. You are too defensive and I think many cars will overtake you not to mention than lorry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder7890 Neutral Newbie March 4, 2012 Share March 4, 2012 Bro, seems like you installed the video camera inside your car is to catch and pinpoint other road user mistakes but not knowing that you are commiting road hogging by driving too defensive in the lane 1.

Datura 2nd Gear March 4, 2012 Share March 4, 2012 Chia, from both video can tell that you are a very safe and defensive driver , highly recommend that you drive on the middle or extreme left lane to let more experience driver use extreme right lane.

Atonchia Supersonic March 4, 2012 Author Share March 4, 2012 Based on this video: Lane 1 is for overtaking/making right turn/making U-turn You may be aware that you had unwittingly invited the lorry into Lane 1 by maintaining that distance behind the Jaguar (yours is more towards road hogging than overtaking), as that lorry driver seen you Forgive and forget about any pot calling the kettle You could reduce the driving along Lane 1 by switching to Lane 2 (you appear not quite familiar with Lane 1 usage, making your driving manner potential road hogging), when that lorry came into Lane 1 The speed was slightly above a loss of $150.... Road Hogging is defined as someone behind me.....not ahead of me filtering in. There were no cars, taxi, bus, or aeroplane behind me. I purposely move slightly right and lift off the accelerator to allow the motorcycle to pass. From the video, the Jaguar and me were passing cars in lane 2 not Lane 2 cars were passing us. Anyway the car that hogged was the silver sedan ahead of the Jaguar. What's causing my concern was the lorry filter but following too closely to the Jaguar. If bang, all bang...

Atonchia Supersonic March 4, 2012 Author Share March 4, 2012 Isn't it wrong to lane change within junction? You are right. That was only in basic and advance theory. In real life not many practice it. Though I no saint, but I do take pride in not causing other drivers to jammed on their brakes to the best I can.
