Since I posted a couple of days back, thought I'd try and keep the ball rolling here...
This clip features some idiot cutting across the gore point (well, at least they signaled for that) then getting into my lane (no signal for that, much less any acceleration) and giving me a chance to give my ABS brakes (thank GOD for those, or else this would have ended differently) and horn a run. Shortly after you see them braking way more than is necessary for a gentle curve in a transition road, probably in retaliation for me having the nerve to lay on the horn as they nearly caused themselves to be rear-ended. For the icing on the cake, they preform an illegal pass on the right.

Hey everyone! It's been a while AGAIN, and trust me, it's not for lack of seeing any bad drivers! I've probably got 2 or 3 dozen clips I could share, but my trusty old Toshiba laptop where they resided has given up the ghost. One of these days I'll pull out the hard drive and salvage them and maybe even share them.
You may have also noticed, my cheapie dash cam had developed a nebula towards the right side. I finally broke down and bought a new rig, which also features a rear view cam. If you're in the market for a dash cam, thus far I would recommend this one, by Zero Edge.
So here's the first clips that actually utilize both cameras! This driver either misses getting into the left turn lane, or doesn't know that's where they are going, and what do they do? Stop in the middle of the traffic lane, of course! I don't know, but I think they may have come to a full stop and waited there if I hadn't been honking. Epilogue caught on the back camera (not great at night, but good enough), they do a half U-turn to get where they really wanted to go, and are blocking cars coming from the other direction as they back up in traffic at the end of this video.
