This is one of Adelaide's brilliant examples of when two lanes suddenly merge into one, in classic hick town design. In this case round a slight bend just at the end of Belair Rd past Mitcham Shopping Centre. Cars waiting to turn right get stuck because of a combination of oncoming traffic and the train line gates going down for our antiquated trains. I always make sure I stick to the left lane here, there's always fuckwits causing a mischief in the right, and when they see the cars stopped up in the right line they try to force their way back in to the left lane. This fella had no idea of the road context nor more than 10-20m vision ahead.

*THIS REMINDS* me of the most Aussie thing I ever saw. I worked in Canberra along the strip where the cars paraded for Summernats. One day I looked down and saw a skinny guy with a mullet walking past at full pace. He had an Akka Dakka t-shirt with a pack of durries rolled up under one sleeve. He was being chased by a woman twice his size who yelled out _'Oi! Come 'ere ya f***ing c**t!'_
I think alcohol explains that one a lot better. There is a channel here on TH-cam of security footage at this dead end that goes to a high school people are always having accidents at the corner that's visible drunken drug-fueled Behavior Native Indians
Looks like y'd expect for someone loosing thier cool over their apartments spot being taken again, because the run down of the side of the car after the contact had to have been diliberate.
@@johnt.848 Did they do it on purpose? That's the key. Old mate trying to slam it between 2 cars waiting at the red light.... Probably not an accident. Old mate just not looking at where he's going and driving into an occupied roundabout... Probably not on purpose.
I saw the pedestrian on the left side of the cammers screen - they didn't cross on green, with headphones on, like so many people do, without looking. Otherwise that bus driver would've killed them. I was thinking "why's that pedestrian not crossing? they have the- bus!"
Hard to work out exactly what happened on some, and sometimes it's something feeble like someone crosses a double white line 300 meters away for several seconds.
It’s amazing how bad drivers most of the people driving Rangers (and similar big utes) are. And you just know they probably believe they’re amazing drivers!
This is LaTrobe Terrace in Geelong and it's an absolute shit show merging on here from Mercer Street. You basically have to make a judgement call over whether the car in the right line or the left lane is more likely to let you in
And there is why unless you drive a semi with an empty trailer on behind you never stop on the roadway of a multi lane highway in the rain and at night to offer yourself as a road barrier at an accident scene...

Amazing instant karma at 11:15 ! If you're only watching on a phone you'll never see it, I had to stand pretty close to my 100" projector screen to catch this, but after the motorcycle pulls in front of the white car (who must have honked their horn or something) the cyclist turns around and gives them the finger with their arm extended for a good three seconds, turning around just in time to see the blue car they're about to slam into. It's fantastic! XD
It's Caroline Springs under the Cristies Rd overpass, right where the Amazon warehouse is on the left. And for that stretch of the Western Highway, that behaviour is getting pretty 'normal'.
I see this every day as a mechanic and motorist.These fool's in there overloaded,unstable utes and four wheel drives.Ultimate examples of skill been slapped in the face of reallity.We just installed a new 5 tonne and 4 tonne hoist to cope with these idiots, 4 tonne saftey kicked in and would not lift a 80 series landcruiser ( height barley got through the door) Factory standard they are unstable and brakes are inadequate, then they want lift kits,bullbars,winches,roofracks and any crap they can bolt on......Then you get the hero attitude. estimated a narvara weight at work (3.5 tonne hoist struggled and was dangerous) this thing had never been further than a bunning's carpark speedhump) Rta should leave the truckies alone and weight scale these death traps.Time and place for everything. Don't get me started on white teslas
Agreed! Had this happened to my new 5 months old car while parked. It had 1m scratch along the side as if a bumper scraped it. Unfortunately it happened on my passenger side so I can't be sure when exactly it happened :(
I don't get people who hover around trucks - staying side-by-side, hugging their ass etc. It gives me the heebie-jeebies the same as when you see a Motorcyclist in shorts.
What I learned from this video: never assume i) the driver ahead of you won't slam on the brakes, ii) drivers to your left in a roundabout will yield, iii) your green light means anything to other drivers, iv) the road is clear when your vision is obstructed, v) dual white lines on blind corners mean the same to other drivers as to you, vi) bikers know what they're doing, and vii) anybody else takes driving safely seriously. This video, more than any of your other posts, shows the carnage on our roads. I'm sure I'm a better driver for watching over the years.
He was (kinda saved the day), although the whole thing puzzles me - it's EXTREMELY RARE for cars to catch fire as a result of a collision (said by an SA CFS volunteer of several decades, with more than a thousand incident responses under his belt). Only thing that would start to make sense is he'd "just filled up" - right to the cap - and the filler hose burst on impact, but even then igniting it is still a puzzle.
@@OhSoddit My first thought was that the wheel arch rim was pushed against the tire by the impact - the tire kept spinning on the metal, and the friction set some spilled fuel alight.
Can't say for 100% but looks like a twin exhaust? (single sided on the left was most common for a commodore this age) so maybe a burst filler hose could have sprayed fuel onto the cat - those things get extraordinarily hot and I'm sure could easily ignite fuel without a spark Either way, extinguisher dude is a champ
There appeared to be no attempt to avert an accident. No sudden nosedive to indicate braking. No emergency swerving. Just had to finish posting a comment to FB right then possibly.
After a video full of narcissism on the road, the courageous and well-prepared response of witnesses to the incident starting at 20:25 was reassuring ! (That said, the complete failure of the Commodore ute to respond to the traffic light was in keeping with the overall theme!).
@@MattiAntsuK The attempts to move were laughable with what looked like a busted drivers side front suspension unit, ain't going to move on that very far
"with mandatory jail sentences" Mandatory any sentence is a VERY bad idea in any society as it takes away flexibility from the judicial process to take *circumstances* into account. This sort of call is real public lynch mob stuff.
The last video gave me hope that even if shit hits the fan. There is always people ready to jump in and help. Don't be passive bystander. Be the person you'd want trying to help you. With all the other videos. Slow the fuck down people. Traffic is a team effort. There's no trophie for coming first. But everyone deserves to come home safe.
2:18 was in the turning lane and should have been slowing way more and could see the street he was turning into but... rode straight into an island. 13:29 had absolutely no fucking clue what was happening and was completely at fault. These aren't terrifying, they are morons getting fucked up. If you want terrifying look at something like 11:53 this cum stain shoots across 3 lanes of traffic and blindly turns into a 4th causing a collision, if you are the van driver there is literally nothing you can do to avoid something like this and you share the road with people who have that level of decision making and risk management every day just waiting to fuck you up.
@@kurtcreanYou are correct. I've been riding for more than 10 years and some of these drivers need to learn a lesson the hard way. They give all riders a bad name.
8:00 I love when you can see the at-fault driver's reaction. First comes the indignation over the other "idiot" for crashing into them..... then the change in their facial expression/body language when they realise it was their own fault.
*sees a third of the accidents caused by ute drivers* probably wasn't for the best that the traditional customers for Holden Commodores and Ford Falcons switched to buying light work trucks with ~sporty~ pieces of plastic glued to them.
On a side note, it's a shame every time some idiot wrecks a late-model Commodore/Caprice or Falcon in these videos. We won't see the likes of them again (in terms of affordable performance cars) from any manufacturer.
@@Robert-cu9bm it's absurd that they've become the new "family car", and that many are sold under sporty or hardcore off-road pretensions. Shout out to the old mate I see who bought a Hilux Rogue with a full ARB-style off-road bashplate, bullbar, roof rack package, but only ever uses normal road tyres.
@@patheddles4004Why not? if the truck is registered it has every right to be there. It's the council to blame for allowing on street parking in an inappropriate location (ie a bend) where trucks need more room to turn, not helped by the trees the truck driver had to avoid when making the turn.....council again.....why the fuck do we need trees every few meters on the side of the road anyway?
@@abbytaylor9649 I'm working on the assumption that the truck was not legally parked. If that was in fact a legal parking spot for the truck, then yeah I'd agree with most of what you're saying.
The sad fact is regardless they are not at fault they will be up for the excess. No way is old mate on the scooter staying around to give out their name.
They haven't learned how to drive. They've only learned how to move the car around. Awareness of traffic is a whole nother thing that's somehow beyond them.
The overtaking lane was moving faster than the truck, just not fast enough for the Patrol. But if one halfwit speeds up then the second halfwit doesn't have the right to run them off the road. One lost his car, the other will lose their licence at a minimum, cause it sure didn't look like they stopped...
@@hedgerhedgerhedgerhedger4454 The vehicles in the right lane are entitled to be there. They are travelling faster than the vehicle in the left lane. And any of them could have been about to turn right. From the point of the incident it's only 500 m to where vehicles could be entering from the left and only 700 m to the exit to the right.
Shock sets in rapidly. The old bus driver is a symptom of the requirement for older people to continue driving in the heavy transport industry...including passenger service. The younger ones find it difficult and expensive to get the appropriate licences.. so the old ones have to keep on trucking. USA requires 250,000 HT drivers in the next 5 years to replace the retirees....
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq when you take up any sort of apprenticeship or any other long term investment in your future career, the first few years you might not be able to get any significant return on your investment as opposed to other professions. Sure, this has always been the case, but what hasn't always been the case is these expensive rents and ordinary suburban homes out in the sticks costing up to a million bucks. Not to mention trying to figure out which jobs you won't be replaced by a robot, AI, offshoring or high immigration within the next 10 years. This also goes for everything from starting your own small business to starting your own family.
They can't think well enough to safely navigate roads with their vehicle so what do you expect? There seriously needs to be a test of intelligence for obtaining a driver license, but the government testers would probably fail that themselves.

@@jaybe2908you would assume but sometimes you have shit-for-brains in charge of road layouts. Close to where I live, as you approach a roundabout 2 lanes just seamlessly merge into 1 with no warning whatsoever. And it's not even 1 lane merging into another, it's weirdly designed so 2 lanes just form 1 in the middle.

He could have been more cautious with passing the truck, but he had a lane to move into safely, so he should've been fine... until the old "I can't see, so I am going to go now" driver appeared on the scene.
It worries me that there are so many bad drivers out there. I’m more worried than ever these days of being rear ended by distracted idiots. By the way a 4kg fire extinguisher can be had for about $60. I carry one with me in both my cars. The 1 or 1.5kg are not much good for vehicle fires as they run dry too quickly.
Yeah I tried to put out a dumped stolen car with a 1kg. It went out but lit up again. Someone told me you really need to disconnect the battery or it will keep shorting and catching. It was under the dashboard so it was probably electrical. I might have had better luck if the fire was elsewhere but you only get maybe 5 secs out of an Aldi 1KG so I think I'll go for a bigger one.
@@leewright4941 That’s the problem. A 1 kg may put out the small initial flame but there will be nothing left to put out the reignited flames. 4.5 kg is a good size. I have one in each car and 2 in the house, plus a 9kg in the garage. They’re very good value in my opinion. Even the big 9kg was only $100.
I agree, the linemarking is not only confusing, it's completely wrong. As it stands, vehicles in the right lane have to give way to those in the left lane. If a zip merge is intended, the dashed line should have ended about 150-200m earlier, giving drivers a decent opportunity to merge.
coming in clutch with the fire extinguisher at the end there
Glad to see I'm not the only person who carries one in their car, for under 50 bucks you can put yourself out if nothing else!

I see this every day as a mechanic and motorist.These fool's in there overloaded,unstable utes and four wheel drives.Ultimate examples of skill been slapped in the face of reallity.We just installed a new 5 tonne and 4 tonne hoist to cope with these idiots, 4 tonne saftey kicked in and would not lift a 80 series landcruiser ( height barley got through the door) Factory standard they are unstable and brakes are inadequate, then they want lift kits,bullbars,winches,roofracks and any crap they can bolt on......Then you get the hero attitude. estimated a narvara weight at work (3.5 tonne hoist struggled and was dangerous) this thing had never been further than a bunning's carpark speedhump) Rta should leave the truckies alone and weight scale these death traps.Time and place for everything. Don't get me started on white teslas
Please tell us about the white Teslas.
More stories please, I hate SUVS in suburbia they should require a truck licence and double the rego costs etc
Nice insight from someone who knows what they are talking about. The shit you must see. Sigh...
Yeah but they go camping once a year, definitely need 20k worth of mods
Imagine being the owner of a tesla trying to delete all the incriminating evidence from upwards of 6 cameras before the cops arrive!
14:46 The dishonesty of people is just amazing. And no spring chicken either.
Agreed! Had this happened to my new 5 months old car while parked. It had 1m scratch along the side as if a bumper scraped it. Unfortunately it happened on my passenger side so I can't be sure when exactly it happened :(
Good he went nice and slow for the cam to get his rego though eh
17:17 Classic Australian suburbia at night

I was so confused about what the hell was going on 😂
Wasn't sure at first if they were yelling "Ya dog!" at each other, or at the dog, or if it was my neighbours yelling "Ya dog! at each other.
Classic Bogan.

5:00 the semi did a good job avoiding an accident, pity about the ute tailgating him.
Yep, if you can't stop faster than a fucking Semi, you might just be tailgating.
Truth, so many crashes could be avoided if people understood the importance of leaving a proper gap.

I don't get people who hover around trucks - staying side-by-side, hugging their ass etc. It gives me the heebie-jeebies the same as when you see a Motorcyclist in shorts.
This has to be one of the most full-on epic episodes, straight from the start.
no....there's better
What I learned from this video: never assume i) the driver ahead of you won't slam on the brakes, ii) drivers to your left in a roundabout will yield, iii) your green light means anything to other drivers, iv) the road is clear when your vision is obstructed, v) dual white lines on blind corners mean the same to other drivers as to you, vi) bikers know what they're doing, and vii) anybody else takes driving safely seriously. This video, more than any of your other posts, shows the carnage on our roads. I'm sure I'm a better driver for watching over the years.
Viii: Isn't on meth.
That light pole going down at 4:20 was like a dying swan! Haha

20-minute video took me 35 minutes to watch because I can't rewinding! My goodness man! Your best collaboration ever!!!
For sure...you just can't take it all in the 1st....2nd...even the third time !
Out of all of these I've watched, that might be the first "fair dinkum" I've heard.
My favourite was "he's done himself a mischief". I'll have to watch that episode again!
20:46 absolute legend ready with the fire extinguisher!
Yeah I was going to say so myself. Must have that fucker glued to his hands.
He was (kinda saved the day), although the whole thing puzzles me - it's EXTREMELY RARE for cars to catch fire as a result of a collision (said by an SA CFS volunteer of several decades, with more than a thousand incident responses under his belt). Only thing that would start to make sense is he'd "just filled up" - right to the cap - and the filler hose burst on impact, but even then igniting it is still a puzzle.
@@OhSoddit My first thought was that the wheel arch rim was pushed against the tire by the impact - the tire kept spinning on the metal, and the friction set some spilled fuel alight.
@@OhSodditunlikely but it still happens. I’ve seen it a couple of times first hand. Not fun.
Can't say for 100% but looks like a twin exhaust? (single sided on the left was most common for a commodore this age) so maybe a burst filler hose could have sprayed fuel onto the cat - those things get extraordinarily hot and I'm sure could easily ignite fuel without a spark
Either way, extinguisher dude is a champ

The person who manages to hit a car, small fence, garden and house before touching the brake...wtf are you doing lol 1:04
Trying to finish the text before having to call the police.
There appeared to be no attempt to avert an accident. No sudden nosedive to indicate braking. No emergency swerving. Just had to finish posting a comment to FB right then possibly.
IKR, He just wanted a new front end... fucker didn't need to hit the house after it.
Looked like it couldve been a medical incident?
As long as he managed to finish the text
After a video full of narcissism on the road, the courageous and well-prepared response of witnesses to the incident starting at 20:25 was reassuring ! (That said, the complete failure of the Commodore ute to respond to the traffic light was in keeping with the overall theme!).
hit and run needs to be treated as a serious crime, with mandatory jail sentences
Along with intentionally running reds, driving on the wrong side of the road, and illegal passing.
White pick-up at 16:20 clearly thought they could get away with 3 tires left.😂
@@MattiAntsuK The attempts to move were laughable with what looked like a busted drivers side front suspension unit, ain't going to move on that very far
"with mandatory jail sentences"
Mandatory any sentence is a VERY bad idea in any society as it takes away flexibility from the judicial process to take *circumstances* into account.
This sort of call is real public lynch mob stuff.

The last video gave me hope that even if shit hits the fan. There is always people ready to jump in and help. Don't be passive bystander. Be the person you'd want trying to help you.
With all the other videos. Slow the fuck down people. Traffic is a team effort. There's no trophie for coming first. But everyone deserves to come home safe.

Some of the crashes in this compilation are absolutely terrifying. 2:18, 13:29
A reality check whenever I fantasize about motorcycles.
@@juiciness All of the motorbike crashes in this video (unless I missed some) were totally avoidable if the rider wasn't a bellend haha.
2:18 was in the turning lane and should have been slowing way more and could see the street he was turning into but... rode straight into an island. 13:29 had absolutely no fucking clue what was happening and was completely at fault. These aren't terrifying, they are morons getting fucked up. If you want terrifying look at something like 11:53 this cum stain shoots across 3 lanes of traffic and blindly turns into a 4th causing a collision, if you are the van driver there is literally nothing you can do to avoid something like this and you share the road with people who have that level of decision making and risk management every day just waiting to fuck you up.
@@kurtcreanYou are correct. I've been riding for more than 10 years and some of these drivers need to learn a lesson the hard way. They give all riders a bad name.

Yeah, and grow a brain with eye balls attached.
Kudos to the guy in the last clip with the dry powder extinguisher. Fast reactions and knows exactly how to use it.
8:00 I love when you can see the at-fault driver's reaction. First comes the indignation over the other "idiot" for crashing into them..... then the change in their facial expression/body language when they realise it was their own fault.
another day, another compilation showing the ute in general and the Ford Rager in particular is the chosen vehicle of the utter gronk.
Is there a disproportionate amount of utes on our roads, or is there simply a disproportionate amount of flogs who drive utes on our roads.
Highest selling vehicles on the roads now mate, followed by SUVs.
Definitely the latter
A bit of both :D
What's a flog?
Yep, Australians want bigger and bigger. Somehow it makes them feel safer and drive worse. @@marvindebot3264
2:35. “Door dash. Delivered straight to your front bumper.”
Old mate probably does not even know the service he delivers for. Probably had all three on the go.
13:11 Too many drivers not driving defensively and with too much attitude. Dealing with the consequences is messy!
Big utes, Rangers, Hilux, and the appropriately named Rams, getting into a lot of grief, and causing lots of grief for other drivers and road users.
Numerous examples of following too close behind and/or not paying attention.
*sees a third of the accidents caused by ute drivers* probably wasn't for the best that the traditional customers for Holden Commodores and Ford Falcons switched to buying light work trucks with ~sporty~ pieces of plastic glued to them.
On a side note, it's a shame every time some idiot wrecks a late-model Commodore/Caprice or Falcon in these videos. We won't see the likes of them again (in terms of affordable performance cars) from any manufacturer.
@@ffnbbqExactly!
Could it also be utes are the most popular vehicle in Australia.
@@Robert-cu9bm it's absurd that they've become the new "family car", and that many are sold under sporty or hardcore off-road pretensions. Shout out to the old mate I see who bought a Hilux Rogue with a full ARB-style off-road bashplate, bullbar, roof rack package, but only ever uses normal road tyres.

Full marks to old mate with the extinguisher at the end there. Zero marks to all the idiots.
Looks like guy in the ute ran a red?
7:56. The reaction of the bus driver looks like he thinks it was the dash cam owners fault.
Shock and slow reactions from a man who should be enjoying life as a retired person....
Lights still haven't changed for the bus when the clip finishes!
It was, in his mind. I mean, he's a bus! People get out of HIS way... red lights be damned!
To me it looks like he faced the realisation that he was gonna get sacked and that it was his fault
I love the change in this facial expression/body language after he realises it was actually his own fault.
That truck driver at 3:55 needs to lose his job and be forced to personally pay for the damage he caused!
The only question is why they are doing this on a tight residential street.
@@chevrolet-poitiers9507 Did think, truck shouldn't have been there in the first place.
@@patheddles4004Why not? if the truck is registered it has every right to be there.
It's the council to blame for allowing on street parking in an inappropriate location (ie a bend) where trucks need more room to turn, not helped by the trees the truck driver had to avoid when making the turn.....council again.....why the fuck do we need trees every few meters on the side of the road anyway?
@@abbytaylor9649 I'm working on the assumption that the truck was not legally parked. If that was in fact a legal parking spot for the truck, then yeah I'd agree with most of what you're saying.

Falcon had it comin’, hogging the overtaking lane and then speeding up only when someone tries to pass. No sympathy.
@@hedgerhedgerhedgerhedger4454 absolutely agree.
The overtaking lane was moving faster than the truck, just not fast enough for the Patrol. But if one halfwit speeds up then the second halfwit doesn't have the right to run them off the road.
One lost his car, the other will lose their licence at a minimum, cause it sure didn't look like they stopped...
@@emceeboogieboots1608 what I have said, and what you have said, are not inconsistent
@@hedgerhedgerhedgerhedger4454
The vehicles in the right lane are entitled to be there. They are travelling faster than the vehicle in the left lane. And any of them could have been about to turn right. From the point of the incident it's only 500 m to where vehicles could be entering from the left and only 700 m to the exit to the right.
aaaaaand on this month's edition of trucks, utes and dual cabs absolutely earning their reputation, you guessed it,
I seen like 10 at fault.
Are you just gunna ignore all the camrys and Rav4s?
sorry mate i dont make the rules
I like how most of the people in the wrong sit there in disbelief for a good 10 seconds like how could have this happened?
Especially that old minibus driver at the red lights.
Shock sets in rapidly.
The old bus driver is a symptom of the requirement for older people to continue driving in the heavy transport industry...including passenger service.
The younger ones find it difficult and expensive to get the appropriate licences..
so the old ones have to keep on trucking.
USA requires 250,000 HT drivers in the next 5 years to replace the retirees....
That bus driver was definitely cross with the cam car for ruining his day, and his surely-perfect driving record.
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq when you take up any sort of apprenticeship or any other long term investment in your future career, the first few years you might not be able to get any significant return on your investment as opposed to other professions.
Sure, this has always been the case, but what hasn't always been the case is these expensive rents and ordinary suburban homes out in the sticks costing up to a million bucks.
Not to mention trying to figure out which jobs you won't be replaced by a robot, AI, offshoring or high immigration within the next 10 years.
This also goes for everything from starting your own small business to starting your own family.
They can't think well enough to safely navigate roads with their vehicle so what do you expect? There seriously needs to be a test of intelligence for obtaining a driver license, but the government testers would probably fail that themselves.

Also, it would seem that dual cabs have twice the number of cabins as their driver's number of brain cells.
clip at 1:00 is why liability insurance (3rd party) is essential even if your car is not worth insuring. That's expensive damage to that house , if it is unreinforced masonry
Yes, people don't understand that the 3rd party with your Rego only covers 3rd parties injuries.
The way that green car blasted through the Give Way, seems unlikely they will have any insurance.

@@jaybe2908you would assume but sometimes you have shit-for-brains in charge of road layouts. Close to where I live, as you approach a roundabout 2 lanes just seamlessly merge into 1 with no warning whatsoever. And it's not even 1 lane merging into another, it's weirdly designed so 2 lanes just form 1 in the middle.

Neither did he.
He could have been more cautious with passing the truck, but he had a lane to move into safely, so he should've been fine... until the old "I can't see, so I am going to go now" driver appeared on the scene.
It worries me that there are so many bad drivers out there. I’m more worried than ever these days of being rear ended by distracted idiots.
By the way a 4kg fire extinguisher can be had for about $60. I carry one with me in both my cars. The 1 or 1.5kg are not much good for vehicle fires as they run dry too quickly.
Yeah I tried to put out a dumped stolen car with a 1kg. It went out but lit up again. Someone told me you really need to disconnect the battery or it will keep shorting and catching. It was under the dashboard so it was probably electrical. I might have had better luck if the fire was elsewhere but you only get maybe 5 secs out of an Aldi 1KG so I think I'll go for a bigger one.
@@leewright4941 That’s the problem. A 1 kg may put out the small initial flame but there will be nothing left to put out the reignited flames. 4.5 kg is a good size. I have one in each car and 2 in the house, plus a 9kg in the garage. They’re very good value in my opinion. Even the big 9kg was only $100.
14:40 this is why when drive to the shops I always park in my driveway.
1:23 wtf is this lane marking, the lane just disappears LOL
Called merging??
I agree, the linemarking is not only confusing, it's completely wrong. As it stands, vehicles in the right lane have to give way to those in the left lane. If a zip merge is intended, the dashed line should have ended about 150-200m earlier, giving drivers a decent opportunity to merge.
They were meant to merge to the right, not the left.
