This does S3 drivers (let alone Audi drivers) no good at all

He should be ashamed of himself and I hope they throw the book at him.

What is known as 'confusion of the inverse'....the probability of A = B is not the same as B = A.
From what I've been reading lately, my money is on the S3 having been stolen. Seems to be an epidemic is that part of the country.
Irrespective, the driver is still a **** !

Clearly doesn't know how to drive as he lifts/brakes for the left curve - unnecessary!
Horrendous driving - I like to go for a blast but undertaking, and excessive speed anywhere built up, are no-no's. What a nob.

Bradford - that's where most stolen Audis, VWs, etc end up so doubt it's an enthusiast owner driving it in the film

Funny how these clips always fail to show any lead-up, context or evidence of what else was going on at the time. For all we know the guy filming this had just spent the last ten miles driving like a **** himself, winding everybody up, hogging lanes, blocking the road and causing much frustration behind him.
Yes, on the face of it, it was a **** move, but don't pass sentence until you've seen the whole story.

Not defending him at all, but that is hardly a built up area, if that's what you mean.
It is I suppose, and I'm a part of this very flawed system. However, being quick to condemn someone to a ban etc when your own driving is likely trash is a different kettle of fish. My philosophy tends to be one that aligns most with Empiricism, and through my own experiences of driving in this country over others, people here drive very poorly, with little consideration for any other road drivers, or indeed the roads on which we all have to share and drive on.Is that another one of those pre-judgemental guilty verdicts?
What surprises me about some of the dashcam footage on YouTube is that the only person it shows to be an appalling driver is the owner of the car in which the camera is mounted. Who on earth goes to the effort of uploading video that reflects badly on themselves?!
Ok, agree with that. No need in that scenario. Undertaking however, is sometimes necessary depending on the scenario.
You've clearly never experienced anyone doing 20mph on a dual carriageway in the outer lane refusing to move over then.
My experience is that most idiots with a dash cam always sit in the outside lane hoping to catch people getting peed off with their carp driving...
No I haven't, but by visioning up and seeing that ahead you could perform the entirely legal move of being in the inside lane and maintaining your speed, thus achieving the same objective. There's a distinction between that and undertaking. And either way this clearly wasn't the same situation as the one you describe.

Unfortunately with the dwindling amount of Traffic Police on the road you can get away with pretty much anything these days. That is just crazy driving but as has been said, there may be mitigating circumstances. Even if there was, waiting 10 seconds to overtake wouldn't have mattered in the whole scheme of things.

That won't be nicked, I see things like that all the time around here.
Red lights are also optional to some and one of the favourite tricks is to go up the outside of a queue, pull in at the front and then turn left. Really gets my goat, but then it's just not worth getting involved.
That footage is on the slip road coming off the M62 eastbound at Jcn26 and onto the M606. No way were they being held up by the car in front, they simply don't deserve to have a car like that. I just hope when they do overstep their ability, nobody else is involved

Nonsense. If the inside lane is blocked further up, or visibility is restricted, you wouldn't be able to.
Life is full of imperfections, and unpredictable scenarios, you just need to learn how to adapt. Which is how they're taught to drive in Germany. Unfortunately, not here, which contributes to one of the reasons as to why we have such trash drivers.
Quite. I've seen worse cases than this video in my area. The roads are a disgrace.
So is staying in the outside lane when there is room to move over. Keep to nearside lane except when overtaking springs to mind. This is the main reason why drivers undertake. The same twit may well pull out in to the outside lane without looking in a similar thoughtless fashion. Any changing lanes needs care and attention.
Absolutely. I've only been cut up by someone once there on the autobahn, and surprise surprise he had a GB plate on the car.
You clearly don't drive enough, or lack the understanding of my very simple example.
terrible driving. Had a similar issue with some moron the other day that did the exact same thing at a similar speed but in much heavier traffic on the m4 near Slough in rush in the morning . They were driving a Renault I think. Idiot
There well may have been some earlier incident but 2 wrongs don't make a right. That was very dangerous, the camera car was overtaking a slower vehicle at what looks like a reasonable speed but the S3 was going so much faster that he must have come from a fair distance back so was committed early to a rapidly closing gap, which was a split second away from being too small.
He'll be getting done for dangerous driving IMO.
Wonder what driver in lane 1 thought about it all.
