Honestly I just thought it was an extra airbag for Americans who won’t wear seatbelts being thrown *through* the windscreen or to protect the occupants from deer and such.
You must be old skool, pretending to think outside the box BUT ounces went out years ago, we now use grams, or in this situation " a grain of caution" would have been wise.... just saying
I've just come from some american dash cam compilations and I'm just happy the cammers are stopping instead of trying to swerve around hazards while maintaining as high as speed as they can. I think it's some kind of freedom thing.
3:28 is the most confusing reaction to a car accident I have ever seen. If you can't plant your feet and stop a Nissan Micra rolling away at 2kmph, you should probably be barred from driving entirely.
@@Davo_1991 After replaying that a couple of times, I reckon that it was a different ute that crammed itself between the dash-cammer & the parked vehicle because even though they were both tray-backs, the one pulling out from the driveway didn't appear to have work-lights each side of the cab!

i mean if the guy was traveling at the same speed as everyone else. By the time that car that rolls comes into view its still smashing every other car in the video for speed. so how fast was he going? It then comes down to judging the gap, if someones going 3 times faster than everyone else but they are closing from behind theres very little reference they are actually going 3 times faster, especially since thats looking back between the front seats, past the back seats, past the rear of the cab, and past the roll bar.

Last one though, failure to slow down in a construction zone, disregarding a mandatory road sign. I forsee them having higher insurance rates forever more, and being found entirely at fault for all costs.
insurance should be voided, they should pay every cent from their own savings. If they dont have enough, sell their stuff. If they dont have enough, make them report to mandatory work with ALL proceeds going to cover damages caused. People getting to just meh around in a car smashing into things only to be bailed out by a 600 dollar excess is pathetic. Meanwhile the other person gets a fraction of the value they paid for their car, along with any injuries and they still dont have a car anymore
Construction company is going to get done for that one - traffic controller standing behind a truck where they couldn't be seen. Sometimes it takes 2 idiots...
She was seriously hurt, she stumbles out of the car and is cradling her arm, then she awkwardly moves away from the car as it is rolling away. Even if it was just shock, you are barely in control of your body at that point. Still your point is valid if she thinks that is the right thing to do.
That seems a bit harsh!! I fully remember when I got my license I was told it is totally safe to exit your vehicle whilst in gear and curl up in a ball in the middle of the road after an accident and let everyone else sort out your fuck up!!!
That may have dawned on the old lady at the same time as she was hit...and hopefully has been reinforced by the Police and her family. A crash like that usually leads to a "review" and a hint to surrender the licence forthwith or face Court... and lose the licence plus a fine etc.
Adrenal dump is a hell of a thing. You ever been scared so much that you can't move? The people who can do stuff through it have had some form of training under stress.
@@sunshadow7XK I've been in a serious crash though no fault of my own,but I still managed to apply the brakes and stop the car before it hit others,and I've had no special training. Sorry but anyone who shuts down enough that it prevents them from applying the brakes should not be on the road. Obviously that doesn't apply to anyone who has been serious injured / knocked unconscious.

I'm amazed by the number of people that see a car rolling slowly towards them and they don't honk! I'm literally yelling "Honk! Honk! Honk!" at the screen!
I don't honk because this sometimes insights road rage. In one of the towns I lived in the road rage was bad enough that a guy got stabbed for cutting someone off.
@@thinleyldorji3986 I think you misunderstood? I'm talking about a person that is stationary in their car while another car is slowly rolling towards them (sometimes after an accident)... If the driver of the stationary car honks their horn they might get the attention of the other driver (that is about to hit them) and the other driver should hopefully hit the break. All too often I've seen people just sit in their car and do nothing... Are they hypnotised by the other car slowly moving toward them?
I am two and a half minutes into this video. So far, most of these seem to show people driving with their eyes closed and/or fully asleep. Scary stuff.

@@jetalse7974 that's a good idea, but all the truck driver needs to do is use his indicator prior to the intersection, to advise following motorists he has legal possession of both lanes while turning.
@@petesmitt Yes, but when you watch the video I doubt the car driver would've even cared if the truck indicated or not. He was determined to overtake on the inside at all costs (and not even on the actual road). He's only got himself to blame - truck driver was completely fine...
Ex-heavy vehicle driver here. The signs refer to the tail-swing of the tray/trailer which can encroach on adjacent lanes when turning sharply. At least where I live (WA) these signs do not allow us legal possession of both lanes, especially without indicating. Plus, even with a B Double or road train, one lane is enough to get around a big roundabout like that. If the law is the same in whatever state that was in then the truckie is (rightly) going to be responsible for most of that crash. That was a poor piece of driving.
12:32 A genuine gesture that says " Yep, sorry.. My Bad" Is more than enough to ensure a civil exchanging of details, followed by a polite "Good day to you Madam"
Many people are in shock and may be injured...note the lady falling out of her car...last thing she is thinking about is staying with the car and doing a 99 point shut down check...... I would have no hesitation in using my 30 year old 4wd as a blocker to stop such a runaway.....rather than my body...to protect all the surrounding tinfoil cars from further damage...
When you're hit from behind, your car lurches forward, you lurch back, lifting your foot off the brake pedal. That's why I always use my handbrake at traffic lights.
Thanks. I had no clue what was going on there. I've never heard of pedestrian air bags before. Sounds like an easy way to cost someone you hate a lot of money. You just have to kick their front bumper hard when their car is on.
12:29 Looking at phone, runs into car, proceeds to repeatedly look at phone again after crashing instead of getting out. Congratulations Australia, this is the sort of idiot we are creating.
Then there was that other incident where instead of staying in her car, the driver falls out because she's scared of the smoke from the airbag, & her car rolls away & almost crashes into two other vehicles!
@@liamc1102 you're lucky indeed, it's a heart rending thing to hear.... because you now know all the biscuits are broken and your tea time snack experience is ruined! 😥
10:05 That's really, really smart. We see so many domino rear-endings on here, but this one saw it coming and managed to swerve out while getting rammed to avoid hitting the red car in front of them. Kudos to them for their quick thinking! o7
Wow that’s the best description of the situation hahaha - guessing she was in shock or something because she reacted really weird - like she nearly got taken out by her own door and didn’t think to pull the handbrake
clear case of someone that shouldnt be driving. not only caused a 100% avoidable, obvious collision, but then didnt secure her vehicle. the first is bad enough, but both combined should = permanent loss of licence.
@@JayJayEss I realise that, but yes, more of a hazard in this case. I saw another comment say it's for the rich so when they mow down peasants it doesn't break the windscreen...
@@SirYenner mate if you’ve just hit a person, I don’t think you’re gonna be travelling very far. Anyway, what’s more important? Seeing where you’re going or the pedestrians life?
Half these people must have their eyes painted on. The other half have no understanding of putting the brakes on to stop the car completely after an accident.
Shock + disorientation when the airbag goes off = accidental stomping of the wrong pedal I'd guess. Though a lot of the time it's probably just stupidity.
3:25 I know, i'll just turn into oncoming traffic and then get out and walk off while my car is still driving in circles! 5 stars for selfishness right there.
@@AJ-zv9tn It's very early on. It's the white Range rover Evoke or Discovery sport. It's the thing which pops out of the bonnet and also has a ramp to help fling pedestrians over the windscreen.
My guess is: *massively cuts corner halfway into intersection* "Oh, there's a dashed line (that I'm currently straddling) going around the corner for people just like me!" *drives to the right of the line* *discovers he should have been driving to the left of the line*
Damn, most of these were at intersections... People really need to slow down and pay attention more! Also I wonder if the driver of the car at 6:40 has learnt not to try and overtake trucks in unsafe places...
How is moving into one of TWO lanes "overtaking trucks in unsafe places"? If the truck wanted to be in the left hand lane, perhaps the use of an indicator would have been wise instead of attempting to make everyone around them a mind reader
I reckon its partially something to do with newer cars, maybe to do with their design over function causing blind spots. They pack them full of features people rely on just to avoid having an accident because it ends up they don't bother to look themselves
@@Seiskid truckie cant indicate, cars in the lane he would be passing would notice the indicator and go, then be well surprised when the truckie continues to head straight for them. While in this situation it was a quiet roundabout if it was more busy the use of an indicator in this way would be significantly worse. the real issue is the route has been approved for B doubles, or it hasnt been approved and the truckie was on it.
11:08 yes, lets all just ride unregisted (dirtbikes) motorcycles on the road, do wheelies and not properly secure helmets... 12:05 that wouldn't have occured if they simply used the brakes. After watching these clips, i really think we need to introduce defensive driving courses as a mandetory thing as part of gaining either P plates, or full license.
I'm an old fuk, but when I was a young cnut (early 1970's), my school (Scarborough Senior High School) offered defensive driving courses. The car was donated by the local Holden Dealer. I'm surprised that it's not happening these days
You always hear that SUV’s and 4WD’s are the biggest rollover risk in an accident but it seems that little hatchbacks are the ones that roll regularly.
That women who gets out of her car in total shock and let's her car continue to roll is a classic example of someone who definitely should not be driving a vehicle. She's got no control of the vehicle when she drives it and especially after an accident.
I'm always surprised how how easily traffic/light poles go down. They look and feel solid when walking by then and yet a slight tap from a car and they come down. Obviously it's a safety feature but still
To me it looks like the car was stopped to not queue across the intersection but by the time they took their foot off the brake, the other car had probably cut across their lane (as they did with the dash cammer) and wasn't able to move forward. Asshole then forces the dash cammer to brake since they've inched into their lane before getting their just desserts although sadly the truck driver was also involved.
Must have been in shock. Or drunk. It most certainly looks like they had no idea what was going on, and by the way they were holding their arm, was almost certainly in pain.
@@Mikowmer you're probably right. And I've never been in a crash before, so I can't speak from experience, but it just seemed like such a low speed collision that idk how they got so disoriented
I witnessed a crash at about 20km/h the woman driving went into shock and then ended up rolling into the car behind her even though the bloke had his horn hard on. Some people are just stunned by what happens they lose all logic.
@@MadMaddi21 While it certainly wasn't Highway speeds, it's still a nearly head on collision where one of those cars was probably going around 40-60 kph into an essentially stationary vehicle. Time of collision looked to be about 0.2 seconds, so that's a force of around 50-80G. While some of that does get absorbed by crumple zones in the cars, it is still a significant jolt, and more importantly, it wasn't directly head on. This means that the seat belt would have pulled at an odd angle on the body, rather than directly across the chest. Whiplash is also a likely factor.
For anyone wondering, the outside airbag deployed at 0:25 is to protect any pedestrians from hitting the windscreen.
doesnt seem like they'd be likely to hit the windscreen on that vehicle based on the height of the front end
Honestly I just thought it was an extra airbag for Americans who won’t wear seatbelts being thrown *through* the windscreen or to protect the occupants from deer and such.

Unless they had a medical event or mechanical failure. But it's so easy to know from a 10 sec dash cam clip from another vehicle tho'. Yup, for sure.
Construction company is going to get done for that one - traffic controller standing behind a truck where they couldn't be seen. Sometimes it takes 2 idiots...
@@scod3908 was thinking the same. those traffic controllers are dopey as
3:30 She honestly shouldn’t have a license
Agreed. How stupid can you be to not know to put your foot on the brake to stop a moving car
Most of them shouldn't 😂
She was seriously hurt, she stumbles out of the car and is cradling her arm, then she awkwardly moves away from the car as it is rolling away. Even if it was just shock, you are barely in control of your body at that point. Still your point is valid if she thinks that is the right thing to do.
The last bloke making sure he has the sign on STOP was priceless
when you give the day 1 apprentice the lollipop
Looks like he was standing behind the truck...
And then proceeds to switch it back to slow as they're walking in front of the car.
There's one thing you learn while watching these videos is there are way too many people on the roads who should not have access to a motor vehicle.
These videos just leave me screaming “HOW?!” at my phone now
While your driving, right? ;)
@@infantilemewling6801 Nice one 😂
3:30 That person should not be driving at all…
That seems a bit harsh!! I fully remember when I got my license I was told it is totally safe to exit your vehicle whilst in gear and curl up in a ball in the middle of the road after an accident and let everyone else sort out your fuck up!!!
what do u expect from an old woman
None of them should be driving this week.
they rolled out tryna get they payout
That may have dawned on the old lady at the same time as she was hit...and hopefully has been reinforced by the Police and her family.
A crash like that usually leads to a "review" and a hint to surrender the licence forthwith or face Court...
and lose the licence plus a fine etc.
12:31 - phone watching causes accident... goes back to looking at the phone after accident.
Does the brake pedal suddenly disappear when you hit something,as most seem to just keep on rolling until they've hit every other car around them
The accident overloads their tiny brains and they forget the brake pedal exists (which is half the reason they crash in the first place).
Adrenal dump is a hell of a thing. You ever been scared so much that you can't move? The people who can do stuff through it have had some form of training under stress.
@@sunshadow7XK I've been in a serious crash though no fault of my own,but I still managed to apply the brakes and stop the car before it hit others,and I've had no special training.
Sorry but anyone who shuts down enough that it prevents them from applying the brakes should not be on the road. Obviously that doesn't apply to anyone who has been serious injured / knocked unconscious.
@@MickH60 Bruh none of what you listed is mutually exclusive with what I have said. For example, get somebody to randomly play a very, very loud sound whilst writing down an entire sentence. Guarantee unless you've done some form of adrenaline training like under martial arts you're going to fuck it up.
@@uptheduffagain Have you ever been under a lot of stress, had to react quickly in a job a lot under pressure?
A lot of people unfortunately haven't had high pressure experiences enough that it means they just react rather than scream and let go. Freezing in fear is an EXTREMELY common reaction to something going up shit creek.
I'm amazed by the number of people that see a car rolling slowly towards them and they don't honk! I'm literally yelling "Honk! Honk! Honk!" at the screen!
Honking won't avoid the accident...better hit the brake
Honking doesn’t slow down your car
I don't honk because this sometimes insights road rage. In one of the towns I lived in the road rage was bad enough that a guy got stabbed for cutting someone off.
Did the car hit a pedestrian? So confused
@@thinleyldorji3986 I think you misunderstood? I'm talking about a person that is stationary in their car while another car is slowly rolling towards them (sometimes after an accident)... If the driver of the stationary car honks their horn they might get the attention of the other driver (that is about to hit them) and the other driver should hopefully hit the break. All too often I've seen people just sit in their car and do nothing... Are they hypnotised by the other car slowly moving toward them?
I am two and a half minutes into this video. So far, most of these seem to show people driving with their eyes closed and/or fully asleep. Scary stuff.

"Should I look if there's anyone coming up at this intersection?"
"Nah, she'll be right."

10:05 Aussie driving at its best, 3 lanes but everyone has to be seen in the outside lane, heaps of space in the 1st 2 lanes!
well the left lane is for slower drivers cars trucks etc and being that highway/road is 110 most dont go in the left lane, also being most in the right lane do 120 and not 110 alot hang in the right lane. what can i say.
It’s almost like there needs to be a law like keep left unless overtaking
@@dan0000023 it's almost like if there was such a law i wonder how many people would abide by it?, plus a few of those cars seem to be overtaking anyway, i couldnt really see why everyone braked in the right lane on a 110kms road?
@@aiddogg3 if it was enforced our roads would be fucking drivable . The reason Germany has the autobahn is because the cops enforce keep left at all times unless overtaking

12:30 would have handed that footage over to police as well as the insurance companies. Clearly driving with complete negligence and disregard to the road rules. Can literally see the phone in her hands.
No doubt that was handed over with the claim.

@@Cyba_IT Pretty much half I would guess, either a few minutes before, or right before and during the accident.

@@SeanBZA And most likely after as well :p
11:31 when you hear that Maccas monopoly has started up again.
@6:50 the sign . Do Not Overtake Turning Vehicle along with the yellow & red reflective squares means a heavy vehicle can Legally use 2 lanes to turn at an intersection or negotiate a roundabout .
also had a long vehicle sign being a B double.. some morons learn the hard way.
You are right, but for those idiots that can't read or evaluate traffic, the truck should straddle both lanes before the intersection.
@@jetalse7974 that's a good idea, but all the truck driver needs to do is use his indicator prior to the intersection, to advise following motorists he has legal possession of both lanes while turning.
@@petesmitt Yes, but when you watch the video I doubt the car driver would've even cared if the truck indicated or not. He was determined to overtake on the inside at all costs (and not even on the actual road). He's only got himself to blame - truck driver was completely fine...
Ex-heavy vehicle driver here. The signs refer to the tail-swing of the tray/trailer which can encroach on adjacent lanes when turning sharply. At least where I live (WA) these signs do not allow us legal possession of both lanes, especially without indicating. Plus, even with a B Double or road train, one lane is enough to get around a big roundabout like that. If the law is the same in whatever state that was in then the truckie is (rightly) going to be responsible for most of that crash. That was a poor piece of driving.
12:32 A genuine gesture that says " Yep, sorry.. My Bad" Is more than enough to ensure a civil exchanging of details, followed by a polite "Good day to you Madam"
Meanwhile the audio: “if that woman should die, they shall kill his daughter”
5:20 is like watching that dude in America's syncronised christmas light display.
0:27 That's pretty cool. Deployment of airbags to protect pedestrians from head injuries.
I hate seeing all these secondary impacts, HOLD THE BRAKES WHEN YOU ARE IN A CRASH!
Many people are in shock and may be injured...note the lady falling out of her car...last thing she is thinking about is staying with the car and doing a 99 point shut down check......
I would have no hesitation in using my 30 year old 4wd as a blocker to stop such a runaway.....rather than my body...to protect all the surrounding tinfoil cars from further damage...
Damaged vacuum lines/stalled engine can also have an effect on your brakes in an accident.
When you're hit from behind, your car lurches forward, you lurch back, lifting your foot off the brake pedal. That's why I always use my handbrake at traffic lights.
@@GreensladeNZ damaged vacuum lines won’t really effect the brakes cause the booster is like a big vacuum storage tank…
Nah I'll get out of the car without putting the handbreak on to have a cry on the road.
As an aussie living in the UK, somehow watching these is a sense of comfort that Australian dachcam commentary is still world beating 🤣

Aah is that what that was
Thanks. I had no clue what was going on there. I've never heard of pedestrian air bags before. Sounds like an easy way to cost someone you hate a lot of money. You just have to kick their front bumper hard when their car is on.
@@philsey6913 It takes more than that. For starters the vehicle has to be moving, somewhere between ~20km/h and ~50km/h.

clear case of someone that shouldnt be driving. not only caused a 100% avoidable, obvious collision, but then didnt secure her vehicle. the first is bad enough, but both combined should = permanent loss of licence.

@@SirYenner mate if you’ve just hit a person, I don’t think you’re gonna be travelling very far. Anyway, what’s more important? Seeing where you’re going or the pedestrians life?
Half these people must have their eyes painted on. The other half have no understanding of putting the brakes on to stop the car completely after an accident.
Shock + disorientation when the airbag goes off = accidental stomping of the wrong pedal I'd guess. Though a lot of the time it's probably just stupidity.
3:25 I know, i'll just turn into oncoming traffic and then get out and walk off while my car is still driving in circles!

Damn, most of these were at intersections... People really need to slow down and pay attention more!
Also I wonder if the driver of the car at 6:40 has learnt not to try and overtake trucks in unsafe places...
How is moving into one of TWO lanes "overtaking trucks in unsafe places"?
If the truck wanted to be in the left hand lane, perhaps the use of an indicator would have been wise instead of attempting to make everyone around them a mind reader
I reckon its partially something to do with newer cars, maybe to do with their design over function causing blind spots.
They pack them full of features people rely on just to avoid having an accident because it ends up they don't bother to look themselves
@@MissEmai0110 was that you?lol what kind of idiot thinks a B double can stay in one lane through a round about?
@@kers225abk2 he needed to indicate. he needed to look before drifting lanes. neither happened.
@@Seiskid truckie cant indicate, cars in the lane he would be passing would notice the indicator and go, then be well surprised when the truckie continues to head straight for them. While in this situation it was a quiet roundabout if it was more busy the use of an indicator in this way would be significantly worse.
the real issue is the route has been approved for B doubles, or it hasnt been approved and the truckie was on it.

I'm always surprised how how easily traffic/light poles go down. They look and feel solid when walking by then and yet a slight tap from a car and they come down.
Obviously it's a safety feature but still
Better than a rigid pole cutting the car in half.
I'm often surprised how easily cars flip over as well.
They're designed that way - to stop cars wrapping around them.
It's not safe for the innocent people in the vehicle they land on.. ask me how I know.
7:52 Time and time it proves that never give way to someone to merge into moving traffic. It always leads to fatalities.
To me it looks like the car was stopped to not queue across the intersection but by the time they took their foot off the brake, the other car had probably cut across their lane (as they did with the dash cammer) and wasn't able to move forward. Asshole then forces the dash cammer to brake since they've inched into their lane before getting their just desserts although sadly the truck driver was also involved.

@@Mikowmer you're probably right. And I've never been in a crash before, so I can't speak from experience, but it just seemed like such a low speed collision that idk how they got so disoriented
I witnessed a crash at about 20km/h the woman driving went into shock and then ended up rolling into the car behind her even though the bloke had his horn hard on. Some people are just stunned by what happens they lose all logic.
@@MadMaddi21 While it certainly wasn't Highway speeds, it's still a nearly head on collision where one of those cars was probably going around 40-60 kph into an essentially stationary vehicle. Time of collision looked to be about 0.2 seconds, so that's a force of around 50-80G. While some of that does get absorbed by crumple zones in the cars, it is still a significant jolt, and more importantly, it wasn't directly head on. This means that the seat belt would have pulled at an odd angle on the body, rather than directly across the chest. Whiplash is also a likely factor.
