Damn that's tragic. I had my Ls in both NSW and the ACT. In the ACT you do a multi hour course over two days before you get your Ls where they spend most of the time reinforcing the potencial consequences of reckless driving. This included showing documentaries about people who had ruined their own lives and the lives of others, including killing friends, through their reckless driving. Those docos were hard to watch even for a desensitised 18 year old male which I was at the time. They have stayed in my mind till now a decade later. ACT does this course in lieu of the 120 hours behind the wheel imposed in NSW and frankly I think it is a much better use of time. Most people fake a bunch of their hours in NSW anyways. Sitting someone down in a small group away from their mates and showing them the real tragedy and horror that can occur on the road is much more impactful.

@@goaway9977 While not being in any Emergency Response I have assisted police at accident sites over the decades, even to closing the Newell Highway on the northern outskirts of Dubbo in 1977 because of a "Fatal". I was 2nd on the scene. First on the scene was a former Highway Patrol Constable Chris C...... and he was busy stabilizing two pre teen girls he'd got out of the vehicle they were in. The father of one of the girls died later that day in Dubbo Base Hospital.

@@goaway9977 agreed. I honestly tried to get the 120 hours under my belt the honest way but I had no one in my life eligible to be my passenger (my father was taking care of my mother with Alzheimer's while also working) and I couldn't afford to pay $40 ph to someone for 120 hours. What I ended up doing was driving by myself around the back streets of Wollongong without my Ls, hoping I wouldn't get nicked. Never been in an accident with another vehicle but once spun out at the top of Macquarie Pass when it was extremely wet. It really woke me up because on that road there are B-doubles charging through all the time. That, plus I watch this channel religiously.

I was in a box truck as a passenger once going down the freeway near Geelong. We were in the far right lane and I realized from the muted Tom Tom (this was in '09) that we were about to miss our exit. As I realized the driver was sketchy (I only just started working there), I just thought "better let it go, it will quietly recalculate after we miss the exit and nobody will know". Then my idiot PhD American middle passenger yelled "YOU'RE GOING TO MISS THE EXIT". Well, this Tourette's/Asperger's driver cut across three lanes without even looking and a B-Double doing 100 k narrowly missed us. After that, I decided I would rather be fired than put up with sketchy breaking of safety.

Does not matter which car is in front or trailing - that only applies if there are no markings on the road. Called the other guy a f'ing idiot, but he was the f'ing idiot who - like many - don't know what the merging rules are. When there are markings like that, it means give way if you have to merge across them. Same rule applies when merging onto a freeway, if you have to cross the dashed lines you must give way.

5:33 what the absolute! We can hear the siren and that suv still goes thru the intersection turning right and takes out the motorbike; seems like they should have heard it before entering the intersection… but perhaps they didn’t and panicked.. but the Ute in front of the can car weaving around the car stopped at the green light yielding to the lights & sirens, then even after the accident the just drive around that in front of the fire truck

19:20 Sorry, but without rear dashcam to see what the BMW did, it just looks like DC car is at fault for not giving way. Doesn't matter if DC car was in front of BMW for this type of merge.
@tin20014 ай бұрын
Yeah. It's a 50:50 to me without seeing the back. The speed suggests it's possible they tried to race past after the merge was started. He doesn't comment until he's halfway across, and the other car is going way faster. But it's equally possible the other car was already too close when he started the merge.
@brianspencer63974 ай бұрын
The cammer was crossing a broken white line. He is required to yield to vehicles already in the other lane, no matter what that vehicle is doing. Because there are no ifs, buts or maybes in the Australian Road Rules, that puts him 100% at fault under the law, but insurance may try to push some of the blame onto the other driver for not avoiding the collision.

15:00 surely the Haval indicated wrong as had their left blinker on as they changed lane and continued around the round about. And unfortunately the Forester who pulled out coped the flack from the motorcycle DC.

pretty sure he thought the haval was going to exit before so hd tried to go then hes like oh sh¡t a white car so he stopped in the middle of the road so he didnt hit the white car
@AnotherDoug4 ай бұрын
The law still requires you to give way to vehicles in the roundabout - even if they are indicating earlier than they should.
@peterbartley71834 ай бұрын
Actually the Haval had his right blinker on for the exit to the right and as it went past the straight though road it started to indicate off the roundabout. He used his indicator correctly. Even if not you have to giveway even if indicators are misused or nit used at all.

at 10:00 i genuinely don't think the driver was the woman. i could very well be wrong, but at the end you hear a sigh from another person, which sounds like a man. i recon he was driving, thought he could go over it and over estimated it. her reaction sounded genuinely shocked, like she was looking at her phone or something and the impact scared her. like i said, could be wrong but so many of the comments about the driving skills of women because of this clip are insanely sexist. even if she did mess up, doesn't justify sexism

19:20: It would have been helpful to be able to see the traffic behind the DC driver here. While legally the DC driver is required to give way (since his lane ends with a dashed line), I wonder if the SUV vehicle deliberately accelerated to "claim their right of way" so to speak? If the SUV deliberately accelerated, then the SUV created an unsafe situation. From a safety point of view, I feel it's always better to let the vehicle in front in, whether a zip-merger or a left or right lane ends scenario.
