All the ones that turned in front of big trucks have a deathwish and for that short moment after impact, that poor truckie is probably thinking he’s just killed someone :(
I believe it was a deliberate road rage incident. From memory DCOA showed it a while back. Party A was being harassed by party B and so decided to brake check in the fast lane. A being for Arsehole, B for Bloody arsehole.
In Victoria (where the incident occurred, from the looks of it) there is no fast lane or overtaking lane. It is just good road etiquette to overtake on the right.
7:45 those people certainly suffered spinal injuries, jesus christ imagine being paralysed for the rest your life because of 2 teenagers and they wont even suffer a big punishment because they're they're just "troubled" kids. Pisses me off.
Absolutely! There could have been a couple of deaths there, but due to his quick thinking it would have just been a few bumps and bruises (although obviously in an ideal world he would have been paying attention in the first place.)
7:23 I remember the story (two kids went on joy rides, one crashed, they got away, other car had 3 elderly and thankfully survived), what I really want to know was there a follow up? Surely the pair served time.
If I remember I think they were charged but no jail time cause they were too young. But I believe they had to do some special learning course so they ‘prevents’ them for doing it again. Don’t believe that ever works
3:46 i’m sorry but what the actual fuk was that we really need context because some driver just comes in full speed and head-on crashes into a stopped car like how the hell do you not stop/turn or divert away
7:35 I watched an interview with the people in the rolled car 3 old ducks, all are okay now after being in hospital for a very long time. VERY lucky to have survived. Teens in the stolen cars.
It's when people get of the bitumen on to the dirt its something than can be done easily but get it wrong with one set on hard stuff the other on soft and well .... it's done to allow the truck to stay on the sealed road and leave a windscreen in the car , Darwin to Alice was mostly one lane for long time and this sort of thing was common.
MrLunithy - The Yuendumu road on the other hand is still a single strip of bitumin - signposted at 110. Down where I am now, the last stretch of single width bitumin was upgraded just last year - it was also a 100 zone the whole time.
Just drove from qld to melb and saw one of the worst accidents I have ever seen in my life just before Dubbo. Please be careful on the road people, even the best drivers can have a bad day... Great work as always Mr Dash Cam this compilation shook me up, reality check!
Upon seeing on the National news that two teens were involved in a head on collision that killed two people in a holiday van, and one of the teens, really disturbs me. I’m not saying that it was the teens fault for the accident, they may have been trying to avoid a roo, or it could’ve been entirely the other people’s fault. We won’t know until the Police investigation is done. The fact of the matter is that three people lost their lives in one incident. I have driven 1000’s of kms across QLD and the NT., (along with many others). I have driven that mileage in my car. In my time on the road, the biggest thing about staying alive is PATIENCE. Yes the caravaners can be annoying because they don’t keep up to the speed limit, and yes the semi-trailers, road-trains block your sight on the road. But it is better to be at your destination later, then not at all. And as for respect for the semi-trailer truck drivers on a highway, stay behind them about 100 metres. As for a road-train, stay behind them at least 300-500 metres, so they can see you in their side-mirrors. Never, ever attempt to overtake a truck unless you have an overtaking lane. Remember that the truck driver can see what is in front. You can’t. And remember that a truck driver on the highway (when he gets up to speed), will sit on 100kph. Keep in mind that, that if the driver has to brake suddenly, he or she has several tonnes of freight in the trailers behind them, and that could be catastrophic. Be patient with caravaners. Whether we like them or hate them, they are here to stay. To be honest, it is very annoying when a caravaner sits on 80kph when they are in a 100kph zone, and you can’t pass them. That all comes down to patience. Sit back, listen to some tunes, bight your tongue, and just wait for an opportunity to pass them safely. For all of you kids with green P plates who are becoming an Open license driver. A driver’s license is not a gift. A driver’s license is a major responsibility. Why? Because you are now responsible to be safe on the roads along with others including your family and friends. Keep that in mind.
I've seen most of these over the years on your page or in compilations, but some don't get any easier to watch the second time around. Some of the drivers in these videos copped some serious hits when they weren't at fault at all.
I always expect to see people running out of their cars to see if the people involved are hurt but I guess t's the shock. It just scares the shit out of me that no one's immediate reactions are to go and help. Only a couple.
Unless you have extensive training, you probably aren't going to be able to help much, if at all. In most cases you can easily and likely make things worse, particularly if you are in shock and not thinking clearly. If someone needs help the best option to "help" is to call the professionals as quickly as possible, and their first priority will be to keep you occupied on the phone and out of the way. That you are scared when people are careful is an irrational response and quite reckless. Immediately running out of your car without thinking is probably one of the most stupid things you can do in situations like most of the ones in the compilation.
@@rogerwagner6940 is right. Unless the person is bleeding/the car is on fire/the person needs CPR straight away, you won't be able to do anything anyway. Your number one priority is keeping everyone safe. The Danger part of DRABC is huge when you're in the middle of a busy street.
I just read 'Dash Cam Owners Australia" and assumed it was your monthly compilation. I was wondering why the number of crashes was so high this month, getting a little worried until I re-read the title.
@Mugen ムゲン make me free country last i checked dont like it that i dont have a shirt on in my pic then dont look at my pic or reply to my comments 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
04:10 If that's the accident I'm thinking of at the Iluka (North Coast NSW) then it was a double fatality for the couple in the 4WD towing the caravan.
7:47 No one died. There were 3 older people in the car that rolled. But they spent a while in hospital. The bloody idiot who hit them was in a stolen vehicle. The first car that over took was the mates of the idiot in the stolen car. They actually turned back to pick the idiot up. All were eventually arrested.
Appalling that some drivers not involved in these accidents do not even bother to stop to help the people in the vehicles involved in the accidents. What the hell is up with society today!
The answers to two questions (and their follow-ups) can explain most of it for you: 1.) Are you [driver of car that doesn't stop to help] able to dedicate your full time and attention to assisting others, so that everyone can focus on being safe while helping those directly involved in the collision? For example, are you alone and not in a hurry to get somewhere, and/or not with adults/children who have special needs, are very young, might be extremely upset to see blood and possibly corpses, or have been traumatized by a previous vehicular incident they were involved in? Have _you_ been traumatized by a previous vehicular incident of any sort, or are you hematophobic or the like? 2.) How many people are already stopping to assist? If there are several, do you have any special skills or equipment-such as medical knowledge, super strength, or a knife for cutting seat belts-that justify your presence, or would you largely just get in the way of them and other road users despite your desire to be useful? How fast and well can you process a situation and make decisions, or at least take orders and be a cooperative set of hands? If you stopped, would the situation be such that you would be blocking the road and possibly contributing indirectly to chain-reaction collisions farther back? A driver who only just got done with physical therapy and has gotten back on the road after a severe collision but who's still trying to mentally process the injury/death of a loved one might choose to keep driving to avoid the memories, and I see no issue with that. A hematophobe who stops to help might end up vomiting everywhere and would inadvertently draw attention from the people who need it, so they actually help by just driving on carefully. Someone with a young child who's easily frightened may choose to drive on because the sight of a bloody human face will give the child nightmares. Someone who's very anxious in stressful situations may become indecisive and paralyzed when faced with an emergency, meaning their presence does more harm than good. Obviously, if no one else is stopping or can stop (i.e., a remote location), then even a person who would be negatively affected by a collision scene in some way should at least call for help and do whatever else can reasonably be done to assist. But for the remaining (and majority of) situations, speed and safety are key. People need to be able to focus 100% on a situation where the lives and health of others are in danger; if they can't for some reason, they increase the existing danger level. To avoid that, they should keep driving. Scorning people who can't stop, without knowing why they aren't stopping, is setting up these situations to be even more confusing, distressing, and possibly harmful.
The crash at 2:07 has me stumped. There is no missed exit, or anything on the road, but the bloke in the Mini Convertible crash stops in the overtaking lane of a freeway? Do Mini's have AEB? I wonder if the car detected an obstacle that wasn't there? Like the sign perhaps?
I love these Aussie Crashes. The Road is as straight as a Die for as far as the eye can see, there is are only 2 vehicles on the road, chances of a head on collision? 100%!!!!
Funny thing is.... The idiots that will be in the up and coming videos won't see any of this and will have no idea the carnage they will cause. Perhaps if they did see this, it may change their driving habits 🤔 I guess we may never know....
Sadly, many of these smashes are caused by panicked over correction. The proliferation of large 4 WD’s has also meant the number of untrained and ill prepared drivers has increased also. Their high centre of gravity means their ease of tipping over is greatly increased. Not to mention their lack of responsiveness when driving over about 60 k’s. Very sad to see.
Bravo, "Great Job" for not killing someone in a bad situation they created in the first place? I don't kill people every day. Can I get some adulation?
@Mugen ムゲン love how you told me to put a shirt on in 2 different comments 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i have never had this much attention from someone i feel so loved btw that pic was taken in summer and was taken in my house you cant tell me you dont takw your clothes off in summer to be more comfortable 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and you call me the fuckwit
He held the trailer under control well, but yes, that's 100% his fault, he didn't even touch his breaks until he basically hit the car in front of him.
Something to take away from this - when you are correcting the car in a slide.... be careful how fast and aggressively you correct... try and take it easy.. or you turn a slide into a roll. Also - try not to drive a truck :)
From all observations in this video and the previous ones published over the years - a CB Radio Antenna mounted on the front the vehicle - visible from the drivers viewpoint - seems to protect you from collisions. I know that can't be true - but it does seem funny how they always seem to miraculously escape unscathed.
I had something to say about 4wd drives with a high centre of gravity and then saw a similar comment from 5 years ago. Nevertheless it needs saying again, your 4wd should not be able to roll all on its own when on a flat bit of bitumen. Sedans just skid in the same situation but two 4wds rolled after losing control on flat bitumen. Keep your centre of gravity as low as you can, it would help not to have 40kg of spare wheel on the roof, gas bottles, 20kg of high lift jack, Jerry cans of water at 20kg each, you get the picture. Spare batteries in the back? Keep them at floor level and not on a slide 40cm up off the floor. Heaviest gear at the bottom, lightweight on top and even a steel roof rack is 40kg and add another 15kg with each solar panel with its fixings. Every centimetre you raise the centre of gravity the more you add to the danger of rolling instead of sliding.
Anyone who wants to get their licence should be shown this video first to show how dangerous the roads can be. Just watching this is bloody nerve racking 😮
Love Australia. Long, straight empty roads, and the only two vehicles on it manage to crash in to each other.
Well he lost control of his tailor before the crash happened.. bad fish tailing leads to out of control car.

5:35 despite the traffic mishap, that truck driver handled that rig like a boss!!
Absolutely! There could have been a couple of deaths there, but due to his quick thinking it would have just been a few bumps and bruises (although obviously in an ideal world he would have been paying attention in the first place.)
I'm most surprised the guy behind took longer to stop and hit the back of the truck.
Insurance blaming him for it?
Probably more luck than anything else. If he was such a good driver he'd be paying attention to the road.
Yes and no, resonable outcome, but if he was a boss he'd have not touched anyone. Not paying proper attention to the road.
What saved him is the added weight of the tractor he was carrying. That kept the truck upright and stopped it from tipping most likely.
7:22 that running commentary though!!!
7:23 I remember the story (two kids went on joy rides, one crashed, they got away, other car had 3 elderly and thankfully survived), what I really want to know was there a follow up? Surely the pair served time.

What’s the likelihood that they’re all on their phones texting and oblivious to what’s going on around them?
The answers to two questions (and their follow-ups) can explain most of it for you:
1.) Are you [driver of car that doesn't stop to help] able to dedicate your full time and attention to assisting others, so that everyone can focus on being safe while helping those directly involved in the collision? For example, are you alone and not in a hurry to get somewhere, and/or not with adults/children who have special needs, are very young, might be extremely upset to see blood and possibly corpses, or have been traumatized by a previous vehicular incident they were involved in? Have _you_ been traumatized by a previous vehicular incident of any sort, or are you hematophobic or the like?
2.) How many people are already stopping to assist? If there are several, do you have any special skills or equipment-such as medical knowledge, super strength, or a knife for cutting seat belts-that justify your presence, or would you largely just get in the way of them and other road users despite your desire to be useful? How fast and well can you process a situation and make decisions, or at least take orders and be a cooperative set of hands? If you stopped, would the situation be such that you would be blocking the road and possibly contributing indirectly to chain-reaction collisions farther back?
A driver who only just got done with physical therapy and has gotten back on the road after a severe collision but who's still trying to mentally process the injury/death of a loved one might choose to keep driving to avoid the memories, and I see no issue with that. A hematophobe who stops to help might end up vomiting everywhere and would inadvertently draw attention from the people who need it, so they actually help by just driving on carefully. Someone with a young child who's easily frightened may choose to drive on because the sight of a bloody human face will give the child nightmares. Someone who's very anxious in stressful situations may become indecisive and paralyzed when faced with an emergency, meaning their presence does more harm than good.
Obviously, if no one else is stopping or can stop (i.e., a remote location), then even a person who would be negatively affected by a collision scene in some way should at least call for help and do whatever else can reasonably be done to assist. But for the remaining (and majority of) situations, speed and safety are key. People need to be able to focus 100% on a situation where the lives and health of others are in danger; if they can't for some reason, they increase the existing danger level. To avoid that, they should keep driving. Scorning people who can't stop, without knowing why they aren't stopping, is setting up these situations to be even more confusing, distressing, and possibly harmful.
7:36 as bad as it looks, rolling like that is one of the 'safer' ways you can crash, assuming everyone is buckled and airbags deploy properly
That's horrifying. So sorry to hear.
I disagree, the videos with the cars rolling would be the most likely for fatalities as the truck driver said "there will be people dead here."
The truckie at 5:40 deserves a medal for not jack-knifing it- respect, mate.

Do Mini's have AEB? I wonder if the car detected an obstacle that wasn't there? Like the sign perhaps?
I love these Aussie Crashes. The Road is as straight as a Die for as far as the eye can see, there is are only 2 vehicles on the road, chances of a head on collision? 100%!!!!
If you were an educated man you wouldn't need to ask.
If you were an educated man you would be straight as a Dye!
7:52 Stealing a car needs to have a mandatory 20 year sentence regardless of the offenders age or prior convictions.
Sure...why not five for stealing a kit kat, 20 for a car, and 40 for speaking without a clue?
"That’s alot of damage"
might need some flex tape.
"metal damage, brain damage, are you listening Bronze?"
You can always tell the Aussie dashcam footage (apart from the side of the road) but the Liberal use of swearing. Bless ya lads.
Seen the second last clip before but didn't know those were stolen cars. Makes the situation a whole lot more dangerous.
No words for what I have just watched.
About time mate
Some heavy hitters this month!
"this month"? One of those clips is almost 5 years old.
and yet the word month never appears in the title....
This is the "Biggest Crashes Compilation". No wonder it seemed unusually brutal.
No, I think the lazy cunts are the ones that didn't bother to read the title of the video: "Biggest Crashes Compilation"
6:25 🤬 Poor girl.
2:34 vehicular suicide, Boggabilla NSW.
rip
Nice toga!
Funny thing is.... The idiots that will be in the up and coming videos won't see any of this and will have no idea the carnage they will cause. Perhaps if they did see this, it may change their driving habits 🤔 I guess we may never know....
You think? I don’t
Sadly, many of these smashes are caused by panicked over correction. The proliferation of large 4 WD’s has also meant the number of untrained and ill prepared drivers has increased also. Their high centre of gravity means their ease of tipping over is greatly increased. Not to mention their lack of responsiveness when driving over about 60 k’s. Very sad to see.
1:27 "All you need is love, love.." Oh, and a new truck.
5:40 bravo to that truckie avoiding a potentially life threatening pile up
The Truckie was the life threatening pile up.
@@stephenw2992 thats what i meant lol im stoned right now but he did do a great job at making everyone else a statistic
Bravo, "Great Job" for not killing someone in a bad situation they created in the first place?
I don't kill people every day. Can I get some adulation?
@Mugen ムゲン love how you told me to put a shirt on in 2 different comments 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i have never had this much attention from someone i feel so loved btw that pic was taken in summer and was taken in my house you cant tell me you dont takw your clothes off in summer to be more comfortable 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and you call me the fuckwit
He held the trailer under control well, but yes, that's 100% his fault, he didn't even touch his breaks until he basically hit the car in front of him.
5:35 - How did the white ute (right of frame) hit the back of the truck? How did he not see what was happening?
5:43 that bass kicked in hard lmao
Good timing
What is the green P on some of the cars? I assume it stands for Provisional like a student driver?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driving_licence_in_Australia Yep. L then P then 2nd P(in some states)
I’ve been waiting for this video for a while now
fantastic episode!
6:48... Slows down, looks, begins to drive off? Really?
Late to the party but I’m so concerned at how many people just kept driving away with the more serious crashes!
5:48 some of the song lyrics are “all I wanna do is drive home to you”
HAHAH
1:48
Girl: Is that guy ok?!
Me: Is that GTS ok?!
Traffic light got K.O
It’s like a game of ‘who can get him by a big truck first’.
Something to take away from this - when you are correcting the car in a slide.... be careful how fast and aggressively you correct... try and take it easy.. or you turn a slide into a roll.
Also - try not to drive a truck :)
From all observations in this video and the previous ones published over the years - a CB Radio Antenna mounted on the front the vehicle - visible from the drivers viewpoint - seems to protect you from collisions.
I know that can't be true - but it does seem funny how they always seem to miraculously escape unscathed.
I've seen nearly all of these ages ago. Where are the fresh ones?
I had something to say about 4wd drives with a high centre of gravity and then saw a similar comment from 5 years ago. Nevertheless it needs saying again, your 4wd should not be able to roll all on its own when on a flat bit of bitumen. Sedans just skid in the same situation but two 4wds rolled after losing control on flat bitumen. Keep your centre of gravity as low as you can, it would help not to have 40kg of spare wheel on the roof, gas bottles, 20kg of high lift jack, Jerry cans of water at 20kg each, you get the picture. Spare batteries in the back? Keep them at floor level and not on a slide 40cm up off the floor. Heaviest gear at the bottom, lightweight on top and even a steel roof rack is 40kg and add another 15kg with each solar panel with its fixings. Every centimetre you raise the centre of gravity the more you add to the danger of rolling instead of sliding.
Exactly.
5:35 What I find remarkable is that the small van still hit the trailer. Are the little guy's brakes that bad?
7:56 THIS AIN'T FORZA HORIZON 3 (in which for some reason you can drive over those exact type of trees effortlessly)
The second last one gets me every time. The fucking bastards doing stupid shit like that. And giving zero thought to the consequences.
1:43 ... is that... Townsville??
5:43 A warning would have been nice. I was at like max bloody volume.
Life can change in an instant. Love eachother, be kind to others, forgive more and please, drive safely. ❤️✌️
watched this again 5 years later. Don't believe I noticed last time at 2:10 emergency phone in the perfect spot!
Oh , Please do a 2019 version !
why the fuck do some of these people just carry on, some don't even check on the injured smh
That was a Franna crane at the opening vid. Looks like if it goes above 40kph then it can’t stay in its lane.
Did the brakes give out in the excavator or whatever in the 1st clip? or just driving like a mad man?
Anyone who wants to get their licence should be shown this video first to show how dangerous the roads can be. Just watching this is bloody nerve racking 😮
Too many powerful vehicles operated by D heads!!!
"Oh ! what a day ! ... What a lovely DAY ! "
You can hear the despair in the first video. He saw it coming and knew there wasn't a damn thing he could do about it.
