Dash Cam Captures of Human Stupidity

The shit we deal with commuting...

Driving down, minding my own business, all eyes on the road. My Spidey senses some fool about to give no fuks by not bothering to look if there are any cars driving by before he swings his door wide open. I react fairly quickly if I do say so myself. I wonder who would have been at-fault if there was contact made?

Keep an eye on your right, the small Honda in front of the blue Dodge pickup.

 

Yep, that's a real danger for bicyclists too.

I'm unsure how the fault sorts out, I imagine it's situational. On one hand there are streets where the moving vehicle has no business being so close to the parked cars that they'd hit an opening door, and there are streets where there isn't enough space to allow for an opening door.

 

Something similar happened to my buddy. He was pulling into a parking spot, and a woman threw her door open when he was already halfway in the spot, causing him to hit it and bust his headlight and a few other parts. He claimed she opened her door quickly, she claimed he drove too fast into the parking spot. It was all he said she said, so no one was at fault. I'd imagine without video evidence like yours, it'd be a similar situation.

 

... and *another* reason for a dash cam...

 

Another driver not sharing the road! I sometimes think about picking up a few DMV driver's handbooks and chucking them at these types of drivers in L.A. You know, to remind them how not to drive.
And I'll be fair, I'll get get them in both Spanish and Chinese.

 

Caught this on Sunday leaving a friend's place.

It's almost like they wanted you to hit them

 

My fiancee and I would have been fine. The driver's passenger... different story.

 

Decided to start a series. Don't mind me scooting out so far passed the intersection.

Edit - Wasn't quite sure what to title this one.

That move seems to be in the Prius handbook.

 

Some of these drivers live in their own little world, and we're just in their way.
Stupidity knows no bounds!

 

+1 to the attentive mother. I just about shit myself.

I think George Karlin said it best... everyone that is going slower than you is an asshole and everyone going faster is an idiot.

 

This is so accurate.

So close to a head on that oncoming traffic had to pull over just because this prick had to get around me and be stuck behind the same 15 cars I was stuck behind

 

I speak the same exact way in situations like that. "Fucking moron. What a fucking idiot."

 

My 4 year old (in the back seat)repeated what I said for the next day or so

 

Nothing like putting others in danger because you weren't paying attention to the exit you needed...

Watch the black Colorado....
