Aside from the fact that they do not indicate ( see second gripe) at the correct points, most drivers do not give way to the right and be lucky to even look to the right. I drive with my lights on in the day, doing 50 kph and I can still get people pull out in front of me without looking...

Indicators, people here do not use them...its rare if you see them.
In Perth round abouts are like the QTR mile, the 1st one on wins and
indicating slows you down plus who indicates on a race track!

Welcome to Perth!!!!

Idiots that take off at a set of lights ( that are green ) and then jam their feet on the brake pedal a second later and come to a complete stop for no apparent reason, then look at you in the rear view mirror with a ''wha'd i do?'' stupid expression because they get blasted with the horn.

Camry Drivers... honestly!! I've had enough of them!

No offence if your grandparents drive a Camry, but it seems to be the ride of choice for old people who wear Beige pants and have golf hats in their rear windows and like to drive in the right hand lane 20kmph below the speed limit.

End Rant.

Welcome to Perth!!!!
Dual lane round abouts are more fun!

meh, elderly drivers in general are shitting me lately. Add a round about into the mix and you get the results as below. Keep in mind its a DUAL LANE round about and the lanes are marked with the reflectors (dont show up well on vid) I follow the lines, by that you can see how far he goes over....

What camera is that, Grumpy?
Wouldn't mind a dash-mount of my own. The number of people doing shit and driving shit bombs is hard to believe.
Enough times i've about got my iPhone out to snap a pic/film some old bomb letting out.. well a bomb's-worth of smoke... only to think "ah CBF".. if i had a camera on all the time it would do it for me.

Its a Blackbox Incar Camera (FXD-100B)

I bought it through Tim (NVRENUF) Good investment IMO, also works good when going to a track day, got some good footage last time I went to the skidpan.
