Good evidence

I've been carrying my Drift HD camera for nearly a year, and I've recorded some interesting footage, for sure. My son followed suit with a Go Pro Hero camera mounted in the windscreen of his car.

The attached clip is a good example of how recording your journeys could prove useful if involved in a 'road traffic incident'.

In the clip, even though my son has perfect road manners, he gets cut-up by a woman driving a Hyundai. Luckily, because of son's good observation and reactions, an 'incident' was avoided. What do you think? Deliberate act, or just bad driving?

Out to play

The last video wasn't much fun. Let's face it a queue of traffic is pretty boring and frustrating - especially if you are in a car.

This time we are out and about. I started the day at Southampton General Hospital then transferred to an office in Winchester. The route - definitely not the motorway - this was much more fun.

Chaos avoidance

I thought I'd try a different route to work.

Since the Highways Agency have bridge repair work at Juntion 9  of the M27, the adjoining roads have been gridlocked most mornings during rush hour - not the the HA care.

The roads are choked, the tail backs then bring Segensworth roundabout to a halt, that in turn blocks the A27 back as far as St Margarets roundabout - basically it's chaos.

Anyway, I thought I'd try something different. So instead of heading to Junction 9, I decided to head for Junction 8, via the A27. I happened to choose the day that the A27, Bursledon Road qualified as the worst traffic jam in Hampshire.
