loved the video

Or any weather really. People are stupid with the tailgating.

Yeah I got flashed during a snow storm last week, people are jerks

@@Unsalted375 You got flashed? Contact the police to report the indecent exposure forthwith. Edit: Unless you thought the flasher was cute, obviously.

I cannot even fathom brake checking in ice/snow conditions just because you can’t drive and are upset at the competence you are witnessing around you.

@@tpolerex7282nothing wrong with brake checking complete idiots that have no business being out in weather for no reason other to hold up everyone else because of their own stupidity or complete lack of preparedness to their vehicle.

I wish I could hit the like button 1000 times!

Like first one out the gate. Slow the hell down and lay off the horn. You were driving through a busy commercial area with lots of other traffic, and the other guy cost you literally fractions of a second. And thank you for filming evidence that would seal a case against you, in case something would have happened.

So true

On top of that, that first driver seems to be another 'left lane hugger'@@joed5419

Lots of idiots in this compilation, including the dash cammers themselves.

yup. The van driver also helped the front semi from being get caught into the accident.

Yep.@@Nishkid641

Worked road construction years ago. Worst accident ever seen in a construction zone was when a semi rear-ended a pick-up truck and smashed it against the back of another semi truck. The pickup truck folded like an accordion, poor driver never had a chance.

Wow. @@gsdalpha1358

That dude might have saved his life turning out of there for sure.

Which means they weren't plowed well enough to tailgate the car in front, and try to change lanes at the last second WITHOUT SIGNALLING, which is what the pickup did.

@@TomCat13461 And the same thing the cammer did

but he has a jeep and he's special

@@michaeld1770Special Ed.

@@TomCat13461 Sorry Charlie. You were behind the PU and could see the situation that was unfolding. Pure passive agression.

👌

Compromised traction? What?! You gotta take your tin foil hat off and quit with these conspiracy theories, ya sound like a loon 🤣

you can leave all the room you want but if someone stops in the middle of an icy road for no reason it's going to result in an accident. You might be able to stop, but that just means you'll be the one getting rear ended and you'll have to pay out your deductible for repairs. The person who stops in the road like that should be held 100% responsible for creating a road hazard.

There is one highway from where I live to the city, with no cross streets or roads for people to get on or off for twenty miles. So, I leave a lot of room between me and the vehicle in front of me. So, I never rear end people, but, they rear end me. Why? No matter how close or far I am from the car in front of me, we all get there at the same time. Leave room! Ice and snow are no excuse. If you can´t stop in time, it´s your fault.

Also, BUY WINTER TIRES! All season tires are 3 season. All weather are 4 season and carry the triple mountain peak and snowflake symbol. It really is exactly that simple. Good equipment, then find an empty space to learn the capabilities of your vehicle. It is not difficult

BWAHAHAHA...and I havent even seen that part of this video yet!!! But this sounds like the type of comment I love making...LOL

I bet his alignment is shot too. He may have damage to the arms on that side too.

Guarantee that the driver wasn't going as fast at the othe stoplights

Yeah, I love how he patted himself on the back for nothing more than riding the brake and sliding.

Exactly. There's no way he didn't ruin his rims, at least one of them.

Timestamp?

@@mvpfocus 0:50, Stop suddenly in the fast lane of a snow covered road, then get out and blame the other driver.

As it is with society in general. Narcissism and petulance are king.

@@erintyres3609 The stopping reason doesn't matter. Still driving too fast and too close.

It all trickles down. Bad drivers increase everyone's insurance rates.

True. So I give a lot of credit to the ones like the guy at 0:09 who recognizes he wasn't on his best behavior.

She locked her brakes on purpose.

All though what you said is true, this incident is slightly different. The car in front of that woman was braking, but stopped braking and kept going. That woman on the other hand shouldn’t have come to a complete stop. She slammed on the brakes after the cammer honked. That was a result of the horn, not the person in front of her. The front headlights keep going while she kept slowing down until the brake check. By the time she got out of her (quickly), the person she was apparently “stopping for” was all the way down the road. That last slam on the brakes is how the collision happened and was a response to the horn. Not to mention she received a hit, but than ran. Out of all the bad POV cammers on here, this one was mostly the other party’s fault even if you include his late braking. The POV cammer would’ve come to stop if not for that unnecessary slow and stop by the runner. Number 14 is a much better example of what not to do in the snow.

@@TheOwlGuy777 irrelevant to cammer's abysmal response time.

AlbertaMORON is more like it. Brake checks don’t matter always blame the cammer

Just as an FYI, watching these compilation videos isn't studying for your drivers test so I'd recommend actually reading the books they hand out because you show no signs of knowing how to control a vehicle or how an 'At-Fault' incident even works. Or maybe you're just one of those shit brains that farms comments/engagement.

Ok, but why did she stop in the middle of the road in the first place?

She looks like she brake checked…

@@Bigfeats1337 You can't see what was in front of her car!

@@Bigfeats1337 The stopping reason doesn't matter. Still driving too fast and too close.

@goclunker6821, lol, that's how you brake check? Lmao... the cammer didn't react in time, is all. If you're driving, you have the feel of how slippery the road is just by holding the steering wheel. Judge your distance from the car in front of you accordingly.

Yeah the cammer should be charged with one count of attempted manslaughter for each person in the minivan.

or the full suspension setup. That did definately escape that unscathed.

That description sounded like a Tacoma ad to me. I hope he got paid for it.

And the alignment…

:) just going home after work, definitely wasn't in a hurry.

There's three lanes on that section of 95th Street. The pickup truck needed to choose either the right or middle lane. Doesn't excuse the reckless move to the right, but the pickup was indecisive.

@@brandongorte4746 Show me the 3 lanes. Maybe there are 3 lanes but they can't be seen. The pickup may not have known there were 3 lanes. You have to drive differently in the snow.

@@johnnielson4341 The locals are all well aware of the lanes there. Notice the other vehicles in the clip. They all pick one of the three lanes. The pickup is indecisive. The cammer should've backed off instead of racing past him though. Use the horn to make him choose a lane.

@@brandongorte4746 And your evidence that the pickup driver was a local is . . . . . ?

@@brandongorte4746good thing nobody ever leaves their local area so you can always someone everyone is always intimately familiar with the amount of lanes on every single street no matter where you are or what the conditions are

Trying to leave a safe distance from the vehicle ahead in congested highway traffic is nearly impossible; other vehicles jump into the gap constantly, and trying to slow down enough to maintain the gap constitutes a separate very dangerous hazard. Gotta tip your hat to that driver's situational awareness, though. He sensed what was about to happen and jumped out of the way. Took some damage, but avoided what might easily have been a fatality.

"Never stay between 2 trucks" they all have to get in the same lane there. The right lane and the left lane diverge. You can't avoid it. The cammer truck driver should definitely be charged with attempted manslaughter though. One count for each person in that minivan.

Honestly, it's not always possible depending on traffic conditions, but when it happens, you should be paying a very good attention to what's happening behind. And the driver did a spectacular job of moving quickly just enough to be pushed on the other lane instead of crushed. Pay attention to your surroundings.

@@CANNABISfreedomNOtaxes Trucker was on the brakes the moment the other cars stopped in front of him. Clearly loaded down and couldn't stop in that distance. You do understand Semis can not stop in 120ft like a car can at that speed?

@@FakeJeep you are incorrect. The trucker braked way too late. And was following way too close. Obviously.

That's right. And hope and pray that you survive in a situation like that. I've hit sheets of ice and black ice many times during the winter time. The last time it happened to me I left off the gas pedal. I didn't push on the brake. I stayed calm maintained a steady throttle and steered slowly and cautiously without wrecking. It happened on the road I live on as a matter of fact. When I pulled in my driveway after it happened I was like "thank you Jesus!" It's definitely an adrenaline rush when hitting a sheet of ice and black ice while driving that's for sure.

He was on the brakes before impact. Precisely when he hit them, I'm not sure. Commercial drivers have a habit of forgetting how slowly their brakes react. With a car, brakes are virtually instantaneous. The only delay really is the reaction time. On a commercial vehicle, the brake pedal basically compresses air. There is a delay between the time the foot hits the pedal and when the brakes fully engage. If you're tailgating and/or not paying attention, the truck simply is not going to stop in time. You can put the brake pedal on the floor all you want, you're going right through whatever happens to be in the way. In this case, I give a lot of credit to the minivan for trying to get out of the way. They saved themselves from what could have been a much worse collision.

Didn't realize I moved close to them until reading this.

Sometimes the camera shows more white fog than what the eyes can see as far as distance.

Thank you. I thought the same thing.

NO ONE "should be" MAKING AN IMBECILICALLY IDIOTIC U-TURN in fog. There, I fixed it... 🥴😵‍💫🤪🥸🤡 🖕🏾

​@@Overtake1exactly what makes you think it's a U-turn? There's a mailbox and a driveway on front of the pickup. The semi is driving fast too fast for the conditions. To the other comment about visibility being better by eye than the camera, obviously not here since the semi appears to react almost exactly when the camera can see the pickup. Yet another moron fool who's in too damn much of a hurry.

@@Overtake1 NO ONE "should be" TYPING LIKE THIS because it looks unbelievably stupid 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍💀

I'm curious how they DIDN'T see the semi. They were damn near next to it when they turned.

Guess you’re ignorant to the brake check?

​@@BR-sb3fvfound the idiot that follows to close in inclement weather 😂 Commercial had plenty of time to stop if he had been watching the road. That's not a brake check

@@BR-sb3fv The cammer had plenty of time to stop and there was no legitimate reason for him to use the horn. What was the danger he was warning her about?

Yep. Been there done that. He was probably having some non-verbal communication with the driver that witnessed it.

Yes! You've gotta love that happy-to-be-alive dance!

Dancing on adrenaline

Yeah that certainly made me chuckle 😆

Saw that coming & did what they could. A FAR LESS severe crash than what it would have been had they not moved. I'm definitely with ya on that!

The way I was taught is that you always finish the turn in the lane you started it in. With single turning lanes that amounts to the same thing; it just gives guidance for dual turn lanes as well. That clip was definitely a case of two bad drivers meeting.

Two people who can't turn correctly. The cammer needs to develop patience.

Cammer was not driving appropriately, took a chance by crowding another vehicle. I choose as$hat to describe him.

Me too. I've starting youtube "my tv."

These videos are the reason I got a dashcam. Saved my ass too.

They did NOT live happily ever after

I’m trying to figure out why she stopped in the first place. Plus yea, it’s snowy and gross out. If you slam on your brakes in front of someone there’s a relatively high chance they’ll re-end you… shit happens, they’ll probably be “at fault” anyway… it’s not a huge deal, your car still drives.

might have no insurrance or no drivers licence or expired registration or warrant?

@@steveroyer1628That would be my guess as well.

0:44: She instinctively fled because she knew that she was going to be partially at fault for braking for no good reason. This way, she can make up a story about the other vehicle running, which will have less impact on her insurance score.

Are you sure? Last I heard, Gary's wife's carpet matches the drapes. In color *and* length!

What his wife doesn't know is that his girlfriend liked it that way.

His bush is his business. He grew it for privacy. Please allow him & his bush it’s privacy.

Was it a yerp?

I live in Davenport lol Even more common is the "Idiot Iowan Lane Change" where they will cross the line beside you then swerve hit the gas and cut you off while not signaling, getting a finger is just bonus points

The cammer's last comment "A little patience should have been used" applies perfectly to himself.

​​@@cybore213yall are both correct. Except I wouldn't call it RAGE! but frustration. Rage is an extremely rare thing for me.

About a week and a half ago I flew from Texas to New York to pick up a RV that we had bought then drive it home. When watching You Tube videos about how to drive an RV the advice was 'do what the truck drivers are doing.' When I saw the truck drivers driving fast in snow and poor visibility - I started being very picky about which truck drivers to emulate.

No excuse for failure to shoulder check.

@@MEdGrant that’s not what I was saying. Where did I excuse it?

I was born in 1970. It was not until my parents bought a new car in 1984 that we ever had a car with a passenger side mirror. My old fiat spider still does not have one, as it was never even an option for that car. Thankfully I only ever drive that car with the top down, so it is not that hard to turn my head to look.

Mirror or not it doesn't matter you're supposed to look over your shoulder I know that's hard to do with the phone in your hand but grow up

@@randaltotten9358 again, where did I excuse him?

I am always amazed when I watch these videos how poorly people drive.

You mean lack of driving skills?

There’s no snow in Florida. You can’t compare that. Drivers in Florida are crazy.

Nice little dance he did at the end - Celebrate! He's still alive!

“Beer can” driver would be uninjured. “American Steel” driver would go the hospital…or morgue.
