A bunch of my own dash cam videos......

Way back in the day we / my friend started with RC scale truck offroading with at the time both of the Tamiya trucks. ( hilux and the other one i cant remember but maybe a Ford of some sort, not the FJ for sure )
Did not at all drive offroad well, but sure looked the part.
 
Crazy Lady in Farmingdale.....

So this lady is in the middle lane at a stop light on RT110

I pull up in the right lane next to her

With the light still red, she inches up, but I time the light just right and goose it on the green

Not sure if she was trying to get into my lane or just pissed off that a minivan got ahead of her, but she started honking at me like crazy, so I honked back with the train horns

Was on our way to the beach to watch the sunset and this happens.....


For some reason, the footage from the N5 is not only missing, but for some reason the impact reset the date code to 1979 (weird)

Safelite repair, Safelite replace....
 
Safelite repair, Safelite replace....
Hopefully I can get it done by tomorrow

Last time I had them replace it, I had to schedule more than a week in advance and they came to my house to install it.

Thing is, we've got a roadtrip back to New York planned for Saturday morning and we're leaving whether it gets done or not

This windscreen replacement seem to be trending, mine is from August.
 
So I'm in the Land Cruiser and pass by a Fire Department with a truck about to pull out

I get to the next stop light and I can hear him coming up behind me

What better excuse than to flip on the emergency lights and blast the train horns to help clear traffic 😊


 
Fiat cuts in front of me on the Belt and a Hyundai does the same to him

Not sure what to make of this one.....

I was traveling on the Belt when Waze warned me of police ahead.

fter passing him, I noticed a black Mercedes flying up behind me and trying to make his way through traffic in a panic.

oon after he passes me, the came cop sneaks up from behind (lights off) and quickly pulls over the Benz.

As I pass by, the officer is walking up to the driver who looks like Coolio and is yelling on his phone (obviously pissed he got pulled over).

A few minutes later, I see him making his way through traffic and barreling over the shoulder as if he was being chased, but didn't see anyone chasing him. I just thought it was odd, so I saved the footage just in case.

That takes real ⚾⚾'s (guy in the Mercedes) after just getting pulled over.
I think there are more nut cases per square mile around there with all the footage you have.
 
I had a funny experience earlier today.

Upon entering town the highway ( 1 lane each direction ) become 2 lanes for a while, but as i was going left 1/2 mile up ahead i just hugged the left lane, and mind you doing 65 in a 60 km/h zone.
But this was not good enough for the BMW EV suv behind me so it overtook me on the Right, gained some 50 yards there and then pulled into the L lane as it too was going left in the same place i was.

Anyway i turned left and headed towards the town center, where the road also turn to 2 lanes in each direction, and right after it had done that i caught up with another little car in the L lane hugging it, BUT !!!! only doing 25 km/h in a 50 zone.
So slow the train bus ( train bus = busses that pick up the slack for trains not running ) behind me flashed its lights like the world was going to end, and mind you was also very close to me, so i indicated right and passed the slow car ( which is OK according to the law as i am passing a slower car on the right and not overtaking )
Again i was hugging the L lane CUZ again 1/2 mile after the road turn to 2 lanes, it turn to 4 lanes / 2 turn lanes in each direction as it end in a T intersection.
Now at night you could easy keep R and then just move over when you get closer, but in the daytime due to traffic and Danes not at all wanting to let you change lane no matter how much you indicate, well you be wise to get into the Left lane as soon as you can.
Also due to the traffic level it make sense to fill both lanes as on the last mile or so of thes toad during rush hour cyclists easy overtake you.
Rush hour have this piece of road being one long queue of cars, 1 - 2 miles back from the T intersection.

So i got a taste of the BMWs medicine 🙂
Really i am not a stickler for the keep right law, CUZ had i been doing that with the BMW earlier it would just have broken the law and overtake me even if the law say you can not break the speed limit while overtaking.
The law also say if you are driving slow and you create a line of cars behind, you you must pull over and let people pass you, something Danish farmers in 30 km/h tractors are not at all good at.
 
That sounds like a stressful drive! It also sounds like you have to worry about breaking traffic laws more than we do. Honestly I wish they would enforce them better around here. It's become the Wild West.
