the cab does drive half on the other side of the road over double white line and a chevron box

But it's not a solid double white line, nor is there a solid white line around the chevron box, so it's not actually illegal.

no ,no solid white line around the box but you should only  enter the chevron box if you have too.........not when overtaking 


taxi drivers an a** hole

I just played the last video clip, and my teenage daughter was watching over my shoulder. She's not known for her temper restraint. Even she said "he needs a chill pill" 

[snapper]

Grahamm yep your righ I was watching the clip with the pause button and each tme it stopped it had two solid white line out the back of the cab ! so to me it looked like solid white line all round

Haha, I get pissed off when someone does something wrong.... Obviously I am innocent.

Without trying to judge your riding too harshly (we've all been there after all) - if you don't calm down your ire is going to force you into a situation where you will come off worse, even though technically you may be in the right.

Just a thought.

I'm a cab driver and a fazer rider. Blimey I see much worse than that from cab drivers and motorcycles every day

Just let it go. Dont get wound up. Focus on riding more defensively. Keep your speed down. Chill.
After 100s of 1000s of pointless biking miles I follow the above 'rules'. Even still I get gravel rash when some arsehole cuts me up and I lose.  Save your video footage for when it matters.
Btw Lewis what camera do you use, I really want to get one?

I use a Drift HD. They are about £150 on eBay. They is now a newer one than mine out with is called the Drift Ghost. I think they are like £200+

How long does it last on one charge?

Kudos to you for posting your videos, gave me a laugh. A couple of things though :


- Is it wise to post videos where if a future incident occurs they could be used against you (he's clearly an angry driver m'lud)
- Love the camera.  I think I need to get myself one of those
- Made me smile.  Thanks for that.
- I used to be an angry driver but then reality set in.  It only achieves negative things.  Don't let people rile you.  Go out, enjoy yourself and let karma catch up with them.  If you don't believe in karma it's best just to let it drop.


Again, thanks for the post.  It's great thing to make someone smile. :-)

Maybe I've spent too long in London, but that all looked ok to me.

Then again, I almost got run over at a zebra crossing this morning, by someone who no doubt had neither licence or insurance, so my level of what's an acceptable driving standard is slightly skewed...

As mentioned, on my daily commute the poor driving is part of riding on Britains roads l m afraid. Its not good but as stressful as it is riding through heavy traffic l try not to stress myself more by responding to it with the choice english l hear you use    By the way good audio quality on that head camera you have, what make is it ? My Rollei Bullet Lite2 has great picture but the audio has loads of buffeting/wind noise come through     Still its good enough for what l want....

About 2 hours. I use a battery pack that lasts well over 24 hours, you just plug it into the USB on the back of the camera.

Oops sorry Lewis for not looking back through the posts  Drift HD yes l looked at those, great camera but for me felt they were a little big, though saying that Geez have you seen the ugly GoPro cameras? Having something the size of a large packet of fags strapped to your helmet width ways is hardly aerodynamic !

I've had a GoPro. the Battery life is crap on them. The only think they are good for is going underwater, quality of the image and more for action shots. Honestly the drift is the one to get

Nope, I luvs it too much. 

They are 3 versions of the Drift.

1) Drift HD170
2) Drift HD1080
3) Drift Ghost.

The HD170 is the biggest of them all and quite frankly the best one. It has a battery life of up to 8 hours when you upgrade the battery to a larger one. The two newer ones you can't upgrade the battery's on them to bigger ones as the camera is designed to be small.

Interesting debate on the camcorders.  There seems to be a universal consensus among reviewers that the gopro's are the mutts mahoonies.  I can see the size, requiring a case, mounts and lack or rotatability being an issue though.  The Drift units do seem like a better choice for most bikers.

As an aside, I'd let most people off for their cruddy driving (they can't help being a muppet).  It's good karma for you and they'll get what they deserve at some point.  Just be glad you're experienced enough to handle it and let it go
