Truck nearly wipes out my car with a late red light run FJ21ULA
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
A HGV at full speed ran a red light approximately 6 seconds after turning to red.
By chance my wife was waiting at the other set of lights waiting to go also hence there are 2 camera views of the incident.
This is the same junction I caught a video of a crash about a year ago where the driver fled the scene but later came back.
if I hadn't looked to my right and just pulled away this would be a very different video indeed.
I've contacted the company who are doing some checks , they seemed very helpful and professional so far in their response i will post updates as things move / change.
As always everyone please drive safe.
Danny, Jaime and family

I hope that vehicle has been reported both to the Police and Employer. They need taking off the roads.
Bloody hell. fair play for avoiding him. very alert driving. that was a massive red light jump and very lucky that you got the two camera views of him doing it. i think he needs his licence removing driving something that big and not being able to follow the basic rules of stopping for red lights. anyway have a great weekend and stay safe buddy :)
Great video as always! Stay safe out there ✨️ Cheers
Bloody hell Danny!! Good job you was alert. Would have been a fatal crash that! Hope you've reported the driver!!

Hiya, I've spoken to the company and they seem to be very compliant and want a copy to review ,yeah if I hadn't looked to my right to check it was clear I'd be a hood ornament
Not exactly a great situation but, thankfully, you didn't end up on a trip to A&E. That could've been so much worse 😮. Long odds of getting 🎥 from 2 different perspectives which will certainly be good evidence for the Company to review and deal with. At least they didn't attempt to mug you off. Yes; keep us posted please.

@DannyDashcam Good to hear you're ok mate. Don't worry, the subscribers will be here for when you start posting again. You've earned a bit of a break i reckon. Wishing you all the best for Christmas & New Year. All the best pal 🙂👌
Hiya Danny, new car? The wagon driver must have been munching a Yorkie 😂 Seriously though you had a lucky escape. Due to your professional training you avoided the incident , we aren't surprised at a red light jumper though are we , whoever the culprit is and obviously whatever they drive. I hope youre ok love, hope the mrs wasn't too shocked by the incident. Just broken up for a long weekend , on the buses it's late indications/no indications and disobeying the highway code regarding letting buses pull out, which now isn't a certainty at every situation/scenario with up to 15 vehicles passing before we are "allowed" to proceed. You take it steady in the red county , with my best regards from the White county. Ben ,🇬🇧🇺🇦🍀🚐🚌🤞🌹🚛

Hiya Ben, thanks for the great comment pal. Yeah the mrs called me immediately after seeing this and was more bothered by it than myself lol. I'm not sure if you noticed but this is the same junction she also caught the crash at and the pickup fled the scene. I hope your well fella. I'll try to post more regularly but been doing home DIY lol

@@DannyDashcam yes must have been frightening. These amateur drivers/viewers need educating. I do think the traffic light management are responsible a bit as there's plenty round here that change at the drop of a hat encouraging jumping. That also includes some but not all of our cyclist friends in particular the fast food lot esp in Leeds! Dumb steeple(a luddite monument)junction aka 3 nuns roundabout (see Martin zero/adventure me on the real resting place of robin hood just round the corner) is one round here and if course one you are familiar with when you get your Yorks visa to come ovat boorder at Scammonden , my fave Chain bar, Jct 26 m62 to the uninitiated. Great to talk Danny. Best wishes. Ben 🤞🌹 ps second video on trot with no mattress sprinter Luton delivery vans !!!!!
Off topic, rather than waiting at those poxy lights to filter right on to Poolstock, is it quicker to turn round in the Bithells yard junction? I normally just go straight over and down to the roundabout and come back up, then turn left on to Poolstock 🤣

Yes it's way quicker to turn into bithells and turn around, beats about 3 sets of the light cycles. I also sometimes do this for the asda exit into b and q lol

@@DannyDashcam Not good at all mate,
Driver needs reporting. Could well have been a fatal accident involving yourself. Do the right thing, no excuses for that red light jump in a HGV. Drivers like these need taking off the road.
