    Not hard enough LOL

    OP is it possible that the bridge is obscuring the light and the drivers can't see the light till they're out from under the bridge? Either way, sweet work on capturing the wrecks. I just got a dash cam in my truck and figure its only a matter of time till it catches something good :)

    These people are just fucking stupid. It isn't like there is bad weather. They just plain can't figure out how to follow the traffic signals. :facepalm:

    Nope. They are just morons, they think at that particular light when one side turns green, pass under the bridge and the other light should be green right? Nope, that intersection is really wide and it don't work like that.

    Nope, you can clearly see the light from the other side of the intersection. If I remember I'll snap a shot of what the light looks like as you go under the bridge.

    Ding ding ding!

    This is gold. You should get a youtube channel going full steam haha.

    Are you watching all of the recordings for accidents? Seems time consuming.

    I delete the files at the end of the day unless I see the wreck or someone in the office tells me. I was in a meeting yesterday when this last wreck happened. A coworker sent me a text, "WRECK!". :D

    I'll be sure to be careful. Mostly I want everyone to see that you can see the light from the other side. I'll have to wait till I'm first in line off the light though.

    Sorry folks, no video this time. This is just a case of someone asleep at the wheel. I started this whole thing with pictures of the wrecks and I guess I'll have to continue to do that for accidents that aren't in the camera's field of view.
    Boy, that beamer sure did hold up nicely. Oh, and the drivers side door on the ford only opens about six inches now. :D

    Strange...I'd expect the opposite. The SUV getting smushed and the truck being fine; since that's usually how it is. Weird lol
