Driver beeps his horn and slams on his brakes after a car pulls out in front of him at a roundabout – sparking debate over who was at fault

A driver who beeped his horn at a car that entered a roundabout has sparked a heated debate over who was actually at fault at the intersection. Dash cam footage showed the driver entering a roundabout in Cronulla in Sydney's south before slamming on his brakes as a black Mazda drove in front of him. The driver sent the footage in to Dash Cam Owners Australia in a bid to expose the Mazda, but was quickly corrected by the popular Facebook page's admin.
