just mentioned it on the other rs246 forum

its blatently obvious the camera vans are endangering peoples lives,look how many people could have been seriously injured in that clip,all because the cash wagon is parked up filming them

fair comment but i'd suggest if you can't handle those cars under heavy breaking or at high speed you should be dribving them at all!

thats also true,but would they have crashed if the cash wagon was not there

Classic examples of over-reaction and probably indicative of a fault somewhere such as brakes pulling unevenly, incorrect tyre pressures on one side, saggy suspension or broken spring on one side of the car. Lucky nobody else was injured in the clips shown. Perhaps it was lucky the cash wagon was just up the road....you or your kids may have been around the corner when they needed to do an emergency stop.

Don't get me wrong, camera vans etc are a PITA - but in these instances perhaps we should be glad some drivers and vehicles have been caught out?
