1:30 honestly respect to the Ferrari driver for leaving their Ferrari in the middle of the road, unlocked, and probably still running to go help.
@@artoodeetoo3064 eww, no! Ferrari Roma, foo!
he probably had the key in his pocket, doors lock when you exit while its running and key is with you. but still, respect.
7:21 I saw a cybertruck parked on the side of the road the other day
@@artoodeetoo3064 try again.
1:11 the Ferrari was like "not today Satan!" Kudos to the driver going to help though!
Feel bad for the two other cars at 5:47 - minding their own biz and then getting smacked into.
Buh wyy dey push eachodder?
Another piece of evidence for a folder titled "reasons you should NEVER swerve into traffic", you're extremely likely to hit multiple other people and possibly cause even more dangerous crashes
1:17 And another car runs a red?? What the heck.
@@AzachsWorld Capturing 3 idiots in one dash cam video is insane.
It's Ohio....
Ohio... makes sense
2:15 hit & run might be wrong black car probably stopped somewhere safe but was confused what happen 🤷🏻♀️
@@ermzermz4845 it’s like they didn’t know they hit that precious Lexus 💀😭
6:16 That might be the first time I've seen someone use their whole vehicle to hit the crosswalk button.
And it worked immediately!
*And here I am thinking I'm the only one to notice that it actually activated*
2:49 I get that it's a single lane road, but why would you turn from the far left side??
Right? It's almost like he was inviting the accident
@@JW765LT I am assuming he is driving a long vehicle and needed space to turn easily. Plus there was another car exiting the driveway. And that's why you always check your mirrors when turning
It's his lane, it's his lane, it's his lane. My question is, why are lanes in the US 4 meters wide?
Edit: Then again, when you let extra wide customised trucks like at 7:00 on your roads you need that space I guess...
@@RoonMianthere should be a white line about a meter from the curb but there wasnt
Because the right side is the shoulder.
9:15 The trailer truck was already too far, but another person followed behind?!? What were they thinking.
They were not thinking about safety.
Nobody in that whole line was thinking. Almost everyone in that whole sequence ran the red, including the trailer truck. No, it was not too far either.
It's in situations like that I regret no longer driving an old beater Pontiac or Chevy. People don't tend to do that crap to you when they can see fixing their paint job will cost more than your whole car.
Left hand turn red light runners are becoming a problem everywhere. There are times I count up to 8 cars still going when it's green for the opposing traffic to go. They don't care, even cops do it here. If no one stops you and no tickets are issued... it just becomes part of people's driving habits. Like not stopping for Stop signs. All you can do is just assume everyone else is going to drive like absolute shit.
1:19 why was i expecting the Ferrari to do something 😭😭
8:58 You see the truck turning and wait til the last second to slam your brakes? I guess its better to honk your horn than brake.
Braking doesn't show very well on video. It's almost impossible to tell when a pov cammer is braking without a speed display. It's very possible and even likely the cammer started braking right away and only once you hear the screeching did they floor the brake.
@@Goldfish_Vender - Even with a speed display, those are typically GPS-derived and tend to have considerable lag. Dashcam manufacturers should look into tying into the G-force sensor most have and put a display on the screen that indicates rate of slowing/braking & acceleration.
@@Goldfish_Vender Watching the rate of movement of various lane lines and markers can be used as an indicator for speed change.
In doing so, it appears the cammer performed very little (if any) braking until reaching the intersection. There were approximately 3 seconds where it appears the cammer speed changes very little.
@@Goldfish_Vender What? There is 0 nose dip at all, the line markers move at the same speed until they are no longer visible, and hell you can tell from the road noise there was no attempt. People do this all the time then blame others for what is easily avoidable. There's even a bit of target fixation as they started veering into the right lane.
@@Goldfish_Vender I suggest earphones, you can hear that they were still cruising, you can hear the honk way before the leg moved toward the brake.
Daily reminder to stay out of the passing lane(s) when not passing to allow traffic behind you to pass
Also, like @3:22, don't try to pass if there isn't any passing lane at all.
Daily reminder that passing lanes only exist on freeways, not city streets.
Daily reminder that I see cops cruising in the passing lane all the time. Rules for thee but not for me.
@@alexandersheppard1997 ignorant and entitled. Please don't drive
@@alexandersheppard1997 Nobody should be tailgating you, I can get behind that. But nobody passing? Get real.
7:51 Keeping more distance from the car in front of you will also help preventing the need to slam on your brakes..
There was plenty of distance though
@@yop_ic That won't save you from getting a ticket for following too closely.
@@rogerwilcojr
He was 2 car lengths away from the drive in front of him; plenty of distance.
@@microsf121 2 car lengths is only adequate distance when you're driving about 20-25mph. Use the two-second rule.
Just the video I need while driving home from work
💀
have we not learned to stay off phones when driving yet?
@@ice15464 reels and driving is way better imo
While?
🤨
Did POSITIVEFREE actually ask why duallies are allowed? Have they never seen one before? In this case, the truck actually (usually) serves a purpose like a commercial truck would.
Im all for small trucks, and believe most standard trucks are far too big for normal use, but a dually serves a purpose most standard trucks can't while also not being a dedicated big rig. At least that one isn't 9+ feet tall.
But then we see trucks with duallies driven empty, to and from work, on a daily basis.
ie: It might be used as a truck maybe 10 days a year.
@@kimchristensen2175 Here's a crazy idea: maybe there's people who haul or tow enough to justify owning a dually, but don't haul or tow enough to justify it being the only thing the truck is used for? Or maybe you could just stop worrying so much about how other people use their stuff?
@@eli-bt4he Nah man, this is America, if I don't like it it must be made illegal.
@@eli-bt4he not "worried" about it at all. it makes me laugh when I see these idiots wasting their money.
I was wondering if anybody else caught this! 🤣🤣
3:55 I don't know how fault works on that. If you're told someone is trying to do something dumb and you do nothing to avoid it, how does that work?
agree, it's like, 5% more defensive driving and you just get to call this guy a dumbass and move on with your day, you know?
@Jaigarful it's called the last clear chance doctrine. Even if you aren't the one initially at faulty, if you had the chance to prevent an incident and did not, then you will be found at least partly at fault
5:22 So you were camping the left lane, because others were? They aren't right to through debris on the roadways, but you should use the left lane to pass and promptly, when the opportunity arises, move right to allow faster traffic to pass you on the left. Creating traffic blocks like this is dangerous.
He wanted rage he got rage
10:00 i think he saw that on his camera
And a very clear example of why those guardrails are there
5:01 - when cammer noticed the black car speeding to pass them, they decided to speed up instead of just letting the lunatic go.
Just let them pass, guarantee it's not worth it to engage with crazy folks as cammer found out.
@@josephquacker9728 nah, fuck em. Let em spin out.
Exactly, it was at most a little frustration instead of justice for the other car, so not really worth it. Just stay away.
5:00 I mean, "closing the gap" so they couldn't merge doesn't seem like the smartest move either. Obviously not defending the black car, but if you don't try to intentionally block people at highway speeds maybe fewer of them will throw bottles at you.
The smart move would have been to keep a safe distance from the dangerous driver.
8:14 they did use a blinker lol. Definitely not smart on the Honda though
I'm not sure how much visibility the driver had, it is not impossible for the blinker to be hidden for the driver
@@danielcrud9345 for sure
Even if they had used it, it was still an unlawful lane change.
I noticed the cammer changed lanes (crossed over a line visible at 8:29 that existed earlier [lane reflectors can still be seen] but was too faded to see) and I didn't hear a blinker activated. So they both called the other driver for not doing something they actually did, yet something they themselves later did not.
I agree, still a bad move by the Honda, however.
Her reference to the blinker is for his last move to the right.
2:04 "AAAAAAAAA" I concur, Rexing Dash Cam
Some of you guys need to realize the horn is not the break and shouldn’t be your first reaction to a car being in front of you. Slow down and try not to hit it. Even if you have the right of way you should avoid accidents whenever possible. I’ve seen way too many clips of ppl speeding towards a car that dipped in front of them and instead of breaking them hit the horn and then get mad when they inevitably hit the other vehicle. The break is a response too!
@Chellz801
Is that a lunch horn break, or a coffee horn break? Next question what would you like breaking, the horn again? Yes the break is a responce too, like lunch and coffee breaks.
@@ducewags just because you said this I’m never editing the comment it’s funnier that way 😂
@@Chellz801 That 5th word should be 'that' not 'this' simple logic like break and brake, and what one to use. Have a nice day.
9:47 Shoutout to Rochester drivers. Aggressive like city drivers, stupid like the rest of them.
1:08 The first time I've seen a Ferrari on this channel and he didn't do something stupid. Kudos
7:05 Uhm yeah, it's a Dually. I've very rarely ever seen one not used as a commercial vehicle. It's legal to own one and if you don't like that, go lobby congress. ...Otherwise.
7:35 I call people like that Organ Donors.
8:20 You're a teen and you've used your horn more in a couple weeks than I have in the last several years and I drive hundreds of miles every day. Back off a bit, brake more and honk less.
@@sarcasticguy4311 exactly. Stop driving like a self involved consumer ksponge.
She did nothing wrong here you dolt.
I sense a lot of accidents in her future.
Bad take, their honking was justified. Idk if you’ve driven in Texas but it’s incredibly scary 😅 people are crazy down there. I don’t know how else that person could have adjusted for those situations, everything they did seemed like a normal reaction and they never hit anyone so this high horse you’re on is kind of unnecessary
@@sarcasticguy4311 Yup, she’s a terrible driver. The car that changed lanes in front of her absolutely did signal and began changing lanes while there was room. She just wasn’t paying attention and tried to cut them off.
Not justifying any idiot's actions but seriously, you are allowed to swerve the moment you see their tires moving 2:27
As a biker I Learned to not leave my safety in hands of these weirdos and focus on what I can do in any situation and I think that car drivers should do the same even though you have 4 walls "protecting" you
Person at 7:08 the next clip is why 🤣 brain dead people
Butt hurt over a dually pickup? Smh
guys swerved toward instead of away 0:45
Definitely made it a lot closer than it needed to be with that, must have been terrifying for cammer
4:45 The car in the center lane is sliding over, and the cammer keeps on crowding them. Really? Yeah, some folks - like the cammer - think that they own the road. People need to stop getting offended by every little thing others do. Grow up people.
9:15 Sure, just keep on driving into the intersection where people are illegally turning in front of you. What could possibly go wrong?
9:15... It's annoying though. If through traffic just sat there, then the entitled/illegal left turners will just keep coming. I've experienced this myself. The only way to stop them is to pull forward and call their bluff.
@@kimchristensen2175 That's okay until you get one that isn't bluffing.
6:14 Let me fix some of this for you: Tom was driving much too fast in the right lane past a line of stopped traffic in the left lane. Had Tom slowed down a bit, knowing that things can happen quite suddenly in this situation, he might have been able to stop without swerving into the utility pole.
@@fairygoth-mother7341 he probably could’ve also avoided the utility pole swerving a teeny bit more to the right too
Correct. Between impatient drivers and unseen hazards it is always good to slow down when passing stopped traffic. That they were stopped on a green light of all things should have set off alarms.
Tom was driving within a speed that was reasonable and prudent for the moment. I am sorry that this man had to go through this all, but I believe he did his best to steer away from the obstacle to minimize risk. To assume every drive should slow down when there is stopped traffic in a left lane is quite insane to me
@@DDEATHBOMBB When I see stopped traffic on a street like this I assume they are stopped to let someone turn, or even worse there is a pedestrian crossing between cars (possibly some stupid kid), and I slow down until I can see that it is clear. That people are not aware of this is insane to me.
@@DDEATHBOMBB - That "reasonable and prudent" speed appears to be faster than the posted speed limit of 35 mph. Also, if anyone has watched enough of these videos, they will have seen plenty of examples of why slowing down next to a stopped lane of traffic is prudent to reduce risk (by increasing the time available to react).
3:18 I think if they would have checked their mirrors AND shoulder check like they supposed to do before even turning they could have easily avoided that accident . simply stupid
But the Camry driver was not supposed to be passing on right. It’s not his fault at all. Drivers should certainly always expect that but you can’t blame him for not thinking about it
3:14 Its also a single lane of travel no other lane markings appear to be there. They had no business passing.
7:25 It's a Cybertruck. Everything's out of alignment.
6:16 Its absolutely wild anyone is blaming cammer here.
He had a green. He had right of way. Speed didn’t even look excessive.
100% on the left turned and the people who unnecessarily stopped.
7:02 - what is even the purpose of this being posted? Dually trucks do serve a purpose 😂
Yes!
thank you
That response was done by someone who doesn't know what real work is and the proper vehicle needed to perform it. That same person will bitch because a 150/1500 series truck isn't big enough to tow a 5-ton dump and say, "why didn't they have a bigger truck" after they plowed into them.
They do, but most people who buy them don't use them for what they are made for.
@@Goldfish_VenderSure, whatever. If someone is going to spend that kind of money, they are going to buy something more fun, easier, and comfortable to drive. When talking about dually trucks, the vast majority are bought for the purpose they were designed for. If you had ever driven one, you would know that HD trucks are quite unpleasant to drive, especially without a load.
That driver of the votozote was eating arm pit hair
4:40 the whole thing could have been avoided. It was obvious the guy wanted to merge but cammer made it his mission not to let the driver do so. Twice in a row and on purpose. Yes, the guy should have merged behind oncoming vehicles but seriously if you go out on your merry way to piss people off, don't be surprised when you succeed.
3:07 I hope the cammer learned his lesson to check his right mirror before turning right, but something tells me that he did not. A friend of mine was recently turned away at the driving test for not checking the right side before turning. Because there's always a chance of a bicyclist being there.
1:20 are we just going to ignore the person that also ran the red???
1:48 That person flat out lied. The driver was likely distracted.
OOoooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Really?
100% texting
Double wide single lane road turning right into a parking lot was scamming. From the security camera footage, you can see that he'd have hit the curb if he had continued his turn without he accident.
5:09 can someone explain to me how this lady did not have enough time?
You can clearly see the signal on the Honda before the jeep slams on the gas.
4:45 - if having things thrown at you on the highway by other drivers is a common occurrence, it may be YOU.
Heck, you even TOLD us you deliberately closed the gap. Stop driving like a sphincter, eh?
It could just be a crappy area filled with terrible drivers, really. Places like that actually do exist, where good drivers are the minority.
Doesn't matter how bad a driver you are, throwing things out of your window on the highway is never justifiable.
bro are you really victim blaming rn?
You hurl anything at a vehicle and it's assault, automatically. A sufficiently large or heavy object can be considered attempted murder.
Sounds like the same types who excuse road rage.
It’s terrifying how these idiots in cars act like traffic laws don’t apply to them, putting everyone at risk
5:50 ugh that AMG GT 4 door
as a pretty new driver i watch these videos to learn what NOT to do on the roads it's actually somewhat educational
I don't know if it is just me or not either, but trucks like at 7:03 are just ugly looking trucks, too. People need to feel big about themselves in any way it's very sad but funny when you realize that about them
@@samgilbert5973 That’s a 5th wheel truck. Most often used to haul large trailers for livestock or recreation. I’ve never known anyone who owned one to have bought it as a status symbol.
@HikaruKatayamma I wasn't referring to it as a status symbol. When I see these types of trucks, they drive like asshole. One time, I had a not pleasant talk with one of these fellow, and he said more. I have the biggest vehicle, so you need to move out of my way. Now I know not all these trucks driving are bad, but a decent portion is
@@samgilbert5973what a dumb comment.
@9:28 By golly, I have all wheel drive on this truck & I'm gonna use it!
There wasn't anything wrong there. He was stuck in a drive through and probably was waiting too long and had to get back to work. It's happened to me before. He took the only exit he had in an emergency.
@@TehButterflyEffect
All I was saying is that that all wheel drive was useful.
6:19 they activated the crosswalk, the little red light on it lit up.
9:50 Me when I get asked where the waffles the waiter just gave us went (I am feeling guilty)
2:00 it's not often you see a hit & run accident where the person who isn't at fault ends up fleeing
4:02 How do English drivers even navigate through such a maze of bollards, zig-zag lines, signs and guard fences?
@@Yormsane the zig zag just means "don't park here because there is a pedestrian crossing or another road feature that needs to be seen. And the bollards just divide the road, it's really not that bad when you are used to it
Cammers are the worst drivers out there lol.
That one at 9:47 is just east of Rochester!
2:53 YOU are 100% at fault. 🤦♂️ Stay off the road if you don’t know how to drive.
damn one of these happened right near my home... and now i miss home. damn i love being 8 hours away, in college
covered in beans
@@glebglub no i am very free of beans right now
Today I was driving on a busy 4 lane road and was hit by a biker crossing the middle of the road perpendicular to the flow of traffic. There was no time to stop and now I’m in the hole for a new bumper of my Honda Odyssey. The man who hit me doesn’t have money to pay for it and insurance doesn’t apply because he was on a bike. GET DASHCAMS PEOPLE. I do not have one and I am working on getting one because of this.
6:07 the cammer was stupid here. I'm sorry, but they were going way too fast with halted traffic on the left. So many ways that goes wrong, and there's so often people trying to turn through the stopped lane or get out of it. Slow down next to halted traffic...
Edit: Looking again, the person pulling in seems at fault. It appears they caused the jam in the first place. Still, the cammer should've slowed enough to react to things like this
7:15 We get it, you hate cybertrucks. I think they're stupid too. But why is a picture of a car getting towed worth wasting 20 seconds of time padding? (without which the video conveniently would be less than 10 minutes).
7:02 Sounds to me like places such as that shouldnt be allowing cars to park on streets that narrow. That isnt the truck drivers fault any more than it would be a big rig drivers fault. All cars and trucks have to conform to the same set of rules for the max allowable width of a vehicle, and those are put in place based on the regulations about the width of lanes. If the truck is having to swerve into another lane simply from parked cars blocking his right of way, thats on the parked cars and on the city for letting the cars park there.
Dually trucks serve a variety of purposes for their owners and for society. Odds are, some product you have purchased at some point in your life arrived in your possession directly or indirectly thanks to a dually truck driver taking a "hot shot" fright trip. Also commonly used to haul large travel trailers or farming equipment or livestock trailers. Those and many more reasons, are the reasons those trucks are "allowed".
I am amazed at the number of hit and run accidents in North America. I have never seen it in Europe. Everybody stops and either agrees or disagrees, but why run?!
she hit the cammer at like 5mph, HOW THE F*** is the subframe damaged???? my meat bag of a body has bounced off cars harder then that!!
I should see about my dashcam.
Rarely do I see stupid stuff. Within three minutes, I caught THREE in my area.
One was two cars in the wrong lane to turn left.
Another went through a red light because he couldn't wait.
The first one was a car turning on yellow with a lady in oncoming traffic racing the light. She had to brake hard to stop.
All in Appleton WI.
Remember kids..
If its weathering out (rain,sleet,snow,hail) drive slow,the roads are slippery
@7:08 Why should these trucks not be allowed? They aren't any wider than full size delivery trucks or semis. They are well between the white lines. What are you complaining about?
7:09 - Why? See that substantial trailer hitch? That truck could be used for towing a heavy trailer that has enough tongue weight that single tires would be over capacity. The truck could even have a 5th wheel hitch in the bed, and those type trailers can put even more weight on the truck.
9:00 - Typical heavy truck behavior. They move slow and often aren't going to sit there for a long time waiting for a longer gap (especially with other traffic behind them) when they know if they pull out anyone paying attention coming from the opposite direction will have time to slow down.
7:57 As a new driver, if you've never slammed on your brakes go find a piece of road right now where you can do that safely and check it out. You need to understand how your vehicle behaves under emergency conditions. An accident is the worst time to find that out.
7:03 That's a standard dual rear wheel truck. Semi trucks are just as wide if not wider, you don't seem to be complaining about that?
9/10 of these it is 50/50 2 equally as inattentive people meeting and what you see is their instant Karma
0:46, genius cammer, if you had space to swerve away and still turn into the lane when the car was standstill after the near crash, could you not have just gone a bit further towards the light and made the turn instead of cutting across someone else's path? Not saying the other person was right, but cammer was not either.
6:14 at no point did the cammer say "gee, I wonder why everyone is stopped at this green light, maybe I'll slow down just in case!"
In many cases if the driver would have slowed a bit, no collision would have happened. Done go flying down the right lane when the left lane is stopped. Drive defensively.
7:07 one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen in my life. Person that took that photo and posted the comment requires institutionalization. Yikes.
Its always weird when you actually recognize a location in these videos
Posts for "educational" purposes, misuses the expression "right off"...
Driving just gives me anxiety. I know where I'm going, but I don't know where anyone else is or how
1:18 never mind the left turning car and the crash there, watch the Red SUV on the right running the RED LIGHT !!
2:52 whether or not he was in the right legally speaking, turning into the parking lot that far from the side of the road is moronic. the breed of driver that doesn't use space on the road to turn off and let traffic continue to flow, is one of the worst breeds.
People need to spend more time avoiding and less time being "right." A lot of these are completely avoidable.
9:01 cammer seems to be above speed limit and might not have been looking forward when truck decided to left turn.
8:32 "no blinker or anything" 8:09 turns on blinker before changing lanes, pay attention lady.
04:49 Look how that repainted mobile junk bounces on the asphalt. The owner must have sold the shock absorbers last week.
For the thumbnail with the ram towing the cybertruck give him credit as I wouldn’t trust it either after what happened with whistlindiesel
0:21 Few months ago, while driving to Superior, AZ I saw a Rivian get intimate with a guardrail, but it kept on driving like nothing happened.
The guy at 2:12 listening to Hollywood Undead. Excellent choice!
1:50 - Darn you Wonder Women and your stupid invisible vehicles!
2:04 Honestly, at those respective speeds, it's possible that the driver didn't even know he hit the other vehicle 🤔
0:35 That motorcyclist have a serious death wish... Then, another death wish at 7:45 💀
7:21 the rear wheels of CT can turn independently of the front ones which is probably why it looks not aligned.
9:48 Oh yay! Rochester. I love when I see spots I know!
1:19 as one red light runner gets wrecked the red suv blows through the light as well.
1:20 You are 100% wrong in your statement, Dashcam Nation. The car going straight was speeding & attempted to "beat the light" on yellow which it's definition means "prepare to stop" not hurry up as some people wrongly believe. Therefore your statement should be "the accident is 100% the fault on the person trying to beat the light. Columbus, OH"
I think the statement is fair. The car turning left has to yield, insurance most likely will put them 100% at fault.
7:20
Not sure what's so special about a car/truck on a flatbed.
Just because it's weird/controversial it gets clicks
Driver from Ohio... Is it true that y'all are eating the pets?
0:43 Looks like the driver is aiming for the oncoming lane.
North Carolina drivers are terrible especially wake county
0:26 what? were they supposed to just stop in the middle of the freeway like a cammer would?
