Dash Cam Captures of Human Stupidity

I agree following too close, but to be honest I would bet most of us do this or have done this. We put to much faith in the driver in front of us some which do not hold valid dl or on some meds legal and not so legal. And dont forget the cell phones and the many other distractions... as a motorcycle rider i deal with this crap every ride.

 

Nor do Im just saying alot of drivers do and or there in a hurry to get no where fast and cause near misses or accidents. I say again as a motorcycle rider all my life you become hyper aware of your surroundings and always thinking of an escape route. There will always be assholes that cut in front of you stay alert stay alive

 

I'm coming up there this weekend! Gonna do some biking and drive around like a crazy tourist

 

I find myself doing that as I'm getting older(wiser?)and have kids in the vehicle.

 

I was wanting to say this too but... I have to say some of the videos of this 'captures of humanity stupidity' is the pot calling the kettle black.

 

OOOh My... Just goto pv its a lil like phx and Il leave it at that. be careful this wknd beer fest and art fest. Dont know if ya drink but there will be plenty of tickets and Im sure fender benders

 

Gotta get a rear camera. Almost got rear ended today by some bimbo who was too concerned with her phone and didnt bother to see that I was stopped waiting to turn. Thankfully I looked in the mirror and saw the top of her head and floored my gas. Missed my turn, but also missed having my rear end getting repaired, again.......

 

I guess this truck was trying to eat the back of my truck. It's bumper to bumper traffic. WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

Nissan vs. Tacoma. Road Rage leap frog.

 

I'll let you guys debate who's at fault on this one...

On my way home from work this evening.



The timing and lyrics of the song are kind of humorous.

That's an easy one.... the police office. He is responsible for clearing the intersection, especially running code 3. I will say, quick action on his part kept that from being a lot worse.

 

You'll note... no siren was activated. Only lights.

There may have been room to avoid collision had the officer swerved right. But, reflexes in a two second window is about all he had.

I kind of suspect, but don't know for sure, that the officer expected to get to the light before it cycled red and when realizing he couldn't flipped his lights on. I could be wrong though. I saw the red/blues in my side mirror just about the same time the truck tried to stop. The officer was moving at speed (speed limit is 45mph here, and increases to 55 just passed the intersection).

 

Leo's fault, failed to protect the public.

 

well, i think it should be the LEO, as, at least around me, they always slow wayyyy down before flying through an intersection. however, it all depends on how the report looks. hopefully you gave the guy in the truck your number for the footage, he might need it

 

Still waiting for the PD to come get my video. Reached out a couple times. I did show it to a client (retired police chief of this agency) and he instantly said the LEO was at fault.
