    I’m both equal parts disappointed and relieved that I can never recognise the streets in these videos.

      I had a great moment with a cracker of a clip.

      Two vehicles road raging for a couple of kilometres, they get out and it’s 2 70 year olds and they start punching on and falling over constantly while the filming car just sits there and watches.

      I had done a job on the very street like a day or 2 prior to watching the video. Sent it to everyone on the crew.

      You would recognise these streets if you lived in Newcastle. I think there were two (deffo at least one) Newcastle scenes in this month’s video. Newy normally gets one, but I’ve seen a few more than that before! Really bats above its weight considering its only 11th by population.

      I’ve recognised a few locations over the years and it definitely adds a bit of interest to a clip, though the downside is that you know the bad drivers are on roads near you…

        I recognised a location from one of the crash compilations once. I just had to send it to a friend, as it was the exact same circumstances (including the intersection) as an accident he was in 5 years earlier. There are a couple of give way signs in North Kellyville that people love to fly through.

        A month or two ago I sent one to my family because there some footage from a town up near where they live.

        Then there’s the occasional road I recognise, but generally because it’s a major road in Sydney like Victoria Road or Warringah Road. Or the time that someone did a u-turn on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

        I only remember one Tasmanian clip and that was just roadrage vs a pedestrian that was trying to cross a 4-lane stroad.
