- At 1h am yesterday Friday morning January 13th the driver of a car was caught on tape striking a concrete pillar at the entrance of a residential apartment complex in Toronto, Canada. No one was injured in the incident but the response from the TFS apparatus was momentarily interrupted. The minor collision happened as fire crews were responding from all directions at the corner of Rexdale Boulevard and Humberwood Blvd in the suburb of Etobicoke in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. An SUV can be seen caught on tape here accelerating ahead of the firetruck before sliding on the slippery road and striking a concrete pillar located on the sidewalk of a large residential apartment building. The driver then backs up and make their way to the underground parking garage of the tower complex.

Average driver
This video is amazing, i'm glad it was recorded.
Tanx my boy
@@pascalmarch he was being sarcastic
The driver missed the day that covered what to do when an Emergency Vehicle is coming up behind you or towards you, Move to the right, this person probably pooped themselves panicking!
In the USA that's still a hit and run as there is potential damage to the vehicle but also property that isn't owned by the driver.
It is here also.
Yeah but it's Toronto, Canada.
It's mayor wakes up everyday goes on tv and says whatever happened that day is unacceptable.
give me a break youre going to stop in the ice and cold after that? its a solid concrete pillar.
@@aslant9246
That might actually work in front of a Canadian judge if you also say you're sorry. 😂
@@chrislim7976 it would probably be a civil matter between the complex and resident(assuming) who crashed into the pillar.
The thing people don’t think about, now those fire fighters have to stop to check on you for your MVA. Which since you left delayed their response time to the initial emergency call they were responding to.
NPC driver
Looks like the fire truck had a hard time as well. Icy roads.
His controller died
Yoooo
So did they get the cat out of the tree after all that?
I used to see this all the time when I was a Firefighter. What drone are you using here, fantastic footage!
I bet you used to see a lot of stuff we can't even fathom! This was not filmed with a drone and to follow up on another viewer's comment, it was not filmed with a 4K camera either but actually with an 8K camera! Hence the great cropping possibility and the small visible details.
@@pascalmarch ok I was curious how it was SO good and zooming like that if it were a drone. I also wondered who would be flying at 1am in the snow? 🤣 was this a security cam?
@@BillyBanana75 looks like he's on a balcony recording
Lol he drives away with his pride intact
You would do the same dummy!
Now they have to stop and deal with you🤦♀️🤦♀️
lmao what an npc
😂😂
cool vid, firetruck driver was ready for that to happen
average idiot that doesnt just move over when he sees the truck coming :) hope they figure out who it was :)
No fault insurance + universal "free" healthcare + zero consequences = driving in Toronto.
all of north America has zero consquences for crashing unless ya kill/injure someone tbh. thats what insurance is for. not sure why you tried to single out Toronto lol
@@penstateftw422
Sorry.
Try driving like that in the U.S. and you will find your life and finances will change drastically due to something called consequences.
Do you get out of Dodge, much?
@@chrislim7976 even with free healthcare I don't drive like a maniac and put myself and others in danger...
@@firedog2820
Great. Apparently many don't follow your good sense the logic and need consequences to change behavior.
@@penstateftw422 you can be charged with reckless driving anywhere in North America for causing a crash.
Had they let off the brakes they would have faired much better.
Too early on the steering wheel, didn’t maximize straight line braking, and stayed on the brakes when they weren’t for Geri levels of speed into their, now, pinched corner
Also too much snow and ice due to the lack of road treatment by the city.
I think if anything the car was trying to move
You cannot beat a fire truck on the road in snow or ice always pull over to the side of the road hello to all firefighters and police and emt be safe ❤️
A lot of assumptions here, but I guess that makes for a good post.
😂 mission failed successfully! That crunch was hella loud and echoes quite a bit also 😂
best toronto driver
This would have completely been avoided if they’d pull over to the side and let the fire truck pass. Live and learn.
If it is unsafe to pull over due to conditions, then it is better not to. It is obvious their vehicle sucks in the snow, so chances are that if they had pulled over a little and stopped that they would get stuck because of the ice and snow.
If Toronto would take care of the roads and actually plow and lay sand, salt or whatever they use then the accident would have never happened since there would be minimal ice and snow on the road to slide on and the driver would have been able to pull over safely to let the firetruck go by. Hopefully that driver has a good lawyer if police were to find them and press charges.
anyone else wondering why the dudes apartment has firemen arriving and alarms going off and he chooses to sit and record them arriving. lol
Well if it's anything like the building I used to live in he gets a half dozen false alarms in a year and eventually you just get tired of evacuating at 2am in the middle of winter because even a false alarm for a building that size takes 45 min to an hour to clear.
@@Hyperion21x Wild, in my years of living in apartments i've never had a false alarm
Nice video. Looks great. Can't hide anything from a 4k camera
I like the mircom system lol my daycares fire alarm sounded like that. And i like how the car hitting the pillar
Typical Toronto driver
Probably a volunteer fire fighter, the ones that start fires!
Good old Schadenfreude. Pathetic.
Nothing new with driver's in the GTA!!!
Apparently doing what you were supposed to do, pulling over and letting Emergency vehicle's pass would have been life threatening!!!!!
You call that pulling over? OMG
@@billyweir714
Sarcasm????
Guess you don't get much of that.......
@@duallie6734 no, to me it’s better slowing down to let the fire truck get by. If you are seriously telling me that the driver is pulling over to let the fire truck to get by, then thank god, I’m not staying In Canada. Turning a corner is not pulling over. Pity you couldn’t see if the engine had its indicator on to turn left. The person who put up the post was right with their description, the driver of the car wanted to beat the fire truck.
@@billyweir714 WOW.....that's what I was implying. "pulling over and stopping"!!!!! letting the fire truck go by and then get on your way. NOT trying to beat it and causing another situation......
Again, Sarcasm escapes you!
@@duallie6734 1-0 to you
Toronto getting worse by the day
Couldn’t pull over and wait 5 seconds, had to make their turn!
What is the chance you caught that wow always yield to fire fighters people are dump sometime
The car was already ahead of The truck by a mile...
They predicted that the car will crash XD
This made me happy
Watching this at 7am.. and damn if i thought my alarm was going off that i swore i turned off.. :P
Ban consequences!
Maybe the guy thought he would get stuck if he pulled over, so he tried to gun it outta the way. I dunno
Should have just pulled over. Looked like a driver's judgment error. Wanted to get out of the way -poor road conditions may have been a factor in deciding on the actions taken? Tired? Booze?
Pulling over to the right is the correct thing to do. That being said it's not always as easy as it looks.
If you're in the left lane and the drivers on the right of you won't let you in
If you're waiting at a red light, especially in the left turn lane and they come up behind you.
And then there's the day a cop pulled up beside me. He's in the left turn lane facing a red light. He turns on his roof lights, waits for traffic to stop and then proceeds to make a left hand turn. Goes about a 100 feet and turns into a Tim's and goes through the drive through.
@@easternwoods4378 you can still slow down/stop and let them go around though right? Guy literally sped up
It was found out he was on several drugs and had a stolen baby in the car.
Karma
Looks like the fire truck was going to pull the same move the guy save the truck from and accident LOL
Thats near the hastey market by the woodbine casino the tall condo
Another "C-Plate" driver in a CUV that should never have been granted a license. Scourge of the road....
Slow down and pull over on the right cool guy!
probably a chick
Humberwood again....I live in the subdivision.
He is slideing on ice trying to turn the corner.
CLICK BAIT ALERT
Canaderp
why did the Firetruck not continue to their emergency call? Who cares about some guy who got his front bumper dented, don't they have an emergency to go to?
indian or indian ?
Absolutely
Female driver
Or a Mexican
Instant karma, lol.
Idk why, this was so funny haha
Diversity that's what happens when you just hand over a driver's license to them....
Just another new Canadian.
racism is an STD
we’ll deserved😂
The fire department truck scared and harassed the motorists, which caused them to loose control..
Haha!
LMAO!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brampton for sure
It's kinda amusing to me as a truck driver how they always need a spotter to back up
Were you been man. Any decent company you drive for has it implemented if there is a partner in your truck they are to get out and spot you. Hard to explain a back up accident with for people sitting in the truck.
@@markhammer2943 I'm by myself all the time lol I'll have to ask my imaginary friend to back me up next time all I can see is evergreen branches in my mirrors
@@markhammer2943 you'd shit your pants if you saw where I was today. Backed a 50t wrecker down a goat trail for about a km entire truck covered in pine needles by the time I got out of there
It’s not that they need one it’s for liability reasons. It’s one thing to get into an accident in your personal truck when it’s by yourself. Getting into a backing accident as part of the fire department and then the city has to pay out the damage is not a good look as a public entity lol. Now don’t get me wrong though they’re not as good as semi truck drivers lol
Amuses me that a "professional" driver is amused at the safety of others. You are a real winner.
New Canadian coming through. Now run and tie up our healthcare cause you might have bumped your elbow.
