Was it just me that thought the dash cam driver was trying to get over the roundabout a bit quick to hold him off?No, that’s the impression I got as well.
It reminds me of the guy on TN that posted numerous videos on you tube a couple of months ago, he saw himself as some kind of Trucker RoboCop, but everybody had the same opinion that it was him that caused his examples of bad driving, and was shown up to be a bit of a knob, so much so that he removed his videos.
The camera guy became as bad as the overtaker when he self righteously refused to allow him back in…end of. Complete Dicks the both of them.

Dash Cam driver actually speeds up to try and get round the island before Interlink can make it back in.
No he doesn’t. The Idiotlink driver brakes earlier coz he realises what he’s done so the dash cam driver gains on him a bit. But he is quite a way behind after the island, doesn’t increase his speed at all.
Also if you look as you enter the roundabout there is a large yellow diversion sign so this must have been taken on a diversionary route.
That just makes Idiotlink 10 times as bad. Blind overtakes in the dark down a road you’re unfamiliar with.

WELL SAIDYOUNG MAN. oh the joys of no limiters and flat out for the boat.overtaking on blind bends with the guy in front shaking the bushes telling you its ok 2 go on the cb with another half dozen paddys hanging onto your bumper waiting for you to repay the compliment…4 abreast on the m6 with some tarts knickers getting flung from cab to cab at 75mph…interlinks on a mission,most likely knows the road like the back of his hand,and can see better at night if anythings coming from headlights that you cant see during the day.do i sit behind the jobsworth,or fly past him and get there.then its oops,jobsworth is speeding up to hold him out,so happy days and a bit of initiative as its the middle of the night,and good craic.you just know interlink was looking in the mirror showing dashcam man the middle finger as the left the roundabout 
…
I have seen a fair amount of video taken from cab cams, this by far is the worst, and the abhorrent culprit should be stripped of his licence - and never be reunited with it. If it was me in the truck being passed, I would of backed off at the first signs for the roundabout - and Im a Bulker driver!
even if dashcam had slowed down the interprat wouldn’t have got back in he was going to fast.the prat wants locking up and the key chucking awy full stop
Only going by what I see here… I would have thought the Interlink driver was being a prat/misjudged and I would have backed off and given him room to get back in./ at least that way he is in front of me and I can keep an eye out for him. Did the dash cam holder deliberately speed up and hold the muppet out there? its not clear from the video, what is clear he didnt think to himself I have an idiot here- I am not an idiot so to make sure an incident doesn’t happen I am going to back off and withdraw from this situation, to safeguard myself and anyone else on the road. and that is the difference between someone who turns a wheel and some who drives for a living…I would have braked, flashed him in and let him traverse the roundabout in the normal way- if he made another stupid manourve down the road that caused an accident at least I wasn’t part of it and I done my bit to stop the idiot killing some one
We will never know if Mr Interwink was over the drink drive limit.?
A night driver could spend all day in a pub to knock himself out to help him sleep before going in to work.
An opinion for what it’s worth.
Why would anyone continue to watch someone make a potentially fatal mistake?
Er no thanks.
Back off, let them thru. Go home safe in the knowledge that you did your best to prevent a potentially fatal error.
After all, you’d look a right hero giving your statement at a coroners inquest.
Its as if just because we drive artics we dont have the right to overtake, if the dash cam driver wants to stick to 40mph then thats up to him, i wonder how long the interlink driver had been following him, dash cam driver could easily have backed off for a few seconds just to let him past, we used to have these fun and games every night up the A41 from the M54 up to wrexham, we used to call them the dual carriagway brigade, you know the ones who stick to 39-40mph on single road then flat out on the dual carriagway.
I would of seen him coming and slowed down with a few flashes
of the left indicator and sent him on his merry way to ruin
someone elses karma.
I would suspect that, given the time of night this incident occured, Interlink had not long left the hub (I believe they leave there at around half past one), knew the road and realised that there was an opportunity to make this manoeuvre. I would also suspect that he has done this before but on this occasion he was filmed.

Has anybody seen this video before ■■? this driver wants banning not just sacking!youtube.com/watch?v=n0Sit4lg1zw
sorry if it’s been posted before.
Again we see someone posting a video that shows potentially dangerous driving and also highlighting their own appalling driving.
That was terrible and potentially dangerous driving by the Interlink driver but why didn’t the driver with the dash-cam slow down and let him in when he realised that he’d made a mistake.
I’m not sure which driver displayed the worst driving attitude, but if I was an employer I wouldn’t employ either of them.
I suppose now people will say it wasn’t his mistake so why should he slow down
What planet are you on?
The only dangerous driver was the one driving around the roundabout the wrong way.
The Interlink driver was overtaking on a curve, there is no way he could have seen what would have been coming until he was close to the front of the other truck. He might have thought he was on a duel carriageway but that just shows his lack of concentration. He also made no indication that he had made a mistake either by braking earlier or putting a left indicator on which shows he knew what he was doing and was doing it deliberately. The speed he went onto the roundabout shows he was intent on getting ahead of the other truck.
There was no appalling driving by the other driver, his only mistake was posting it on YouTube where the usual Trucknet brigade berate them and support someone who has no place on our roads.
If the other driver had backed off it all could have been prevented, so yes appalling driving on both sides in my opinion.
Road doesn’t buy you the road, just the right to use it.

Yes, we do not know if the interlink driver bullied his way through or made a stupid and dangerous mistake.
Live and let live. We all moan at car drivers who will stick to 45 in roadworks and think they have the right to do that, because you are not allowed any faster.
I do not have a police franchise, nor am I a school headmaster. We all have days we have plenty of time and days we are running late, or out of time and need every minute, so if anyone wants to go quicker, I will let them.
In this case I probably would have seen him comming, would have put high beam on, so he could judge for himself if it was ok to overtake.
This is poor driving from both parties, what if the Interlink had panicked, slammed on the the brakes, skidded and pushed the other driver off the road and then went straight through in to the roundabout…
The trucking industry would have made the headlines (again) in its usual (bad) way…

That’s a massive assumption though, and there’s no evidence for it whatever. Not every UK driver is an angel, and not every European is a demon. The only certain thing you can say here is that at least one of the people who had the power to do something constructive here didn’t do it. Is dash cam driver from the UK?
To be honest, dash cam left Interlink nowhere else to go. Interlink began his overtake long before there was any sign of an approaching roundabout, and by the time it was apparent, he was fully committed to the overtake with nowhere else to go. The safe thing to do would be for dash cam to back off as soon as it was obvious that Interlink wasn’t going to make it past in time. Yes yes yes, he wasn’t in the wrong and all the rest of it, but there’s more to driving than just saying “well, it’s my right of way” and carrying on regardless. The more I think about this, the more I’m inclined to think dash cam is the one who needs to learn a few things. European or not.

there were plenty of places to go…but most of them involved being behind,which he wasn’t prepared to accept.
one-upmanship,then creeps into the equation…and disaster is on the cards
Terry T:
No he doesn’t. The Idiotlink driver brakes earlier coz he realises what he’s done so the dash cam driver gains on him a bit. But he is quite a way behind after the island, doesn’t increase his speed at all.
Neither did he decrease it when he knew that interlink man wasn’t going to make the overtake before the roundabout and it is this which makes him as guilty as interlink man.
