Don't forget to follow me on Twitter @dashcamlessons Note that this is a compilation made with the videos i uploaded on this channel in 2019. So if you've been with me since the beginning of the year, you probably know all of these. The watermark still says "Viral Car Videos" because i didn't re-edit them, so the video took only 4-5 hours to make, compared to the usually 10+ hours of work. Happy New Year and drive safe!
True, but some of these semi vids are screwed up. A lot these guys are speeding, and considering how heavy their car is, they're the assholes. That's from personal experience. Sometimes its the other way around. One thing for sure, the video where he doesn't let the the driver over is screwed up. Your car is 30 ft long, and sometimes you don't expect a merge, shit happens. If youre in a semi let the person over. What's your endgame, you kill someone? Also, you're on the clock so you'll be fired, potentially arrested or sued.
yeah the driver took a left onto a street that someone was already walking across. doesn't matter if there is a crosswalk or not, driver still has to slow down as he is the one approaching the pedestrian. maybe he's arrogant but you're ignorant.
@@huthutslice1217 your point is that because the driver took a left turn through a green light while the pedestrian had already begun jaywalking, that I'm ignorant about the situation? We all know you can't intentionally hit pedestrians even if they're jaywalking. Great comment genius.

Defensive driving in a nutshell, a good driving instructor can give you the skills to avoid lots of bad accidents, especially when you include cold weather driving, never slam the brakes or gas and steer into the skid, very large empty parking lots covered in ice/snow make for good practice areas. TL:DR Keep aware, Drive safe, you never know what you'll see on the road
One day during an ice storm I lost control of my car going pretty slow, maybe between 15-25 mph. The truck in front of me saw this happen and did the craziest and most impressive brake check I’ve ever witnessed. He matched my speed, and then brake checked me in just the right way that we both came to a stop with no damage. I looked at his mirror and he winked at me like he knew exactly what he just did.
2:41 man without the right of way could have realized the road rules and not ignorantly attempt to cut off another vehicle. Just because they didn’t seem like they knew they were in the wrong doesn’t make it safe all of the sudden. They deserved to get hit for being in that position in the first place, it’s just lucky no one got hurt while they learned their lesson.
Gotta be honest: it's really gratifying to see a brake checker followed by "insurance placed them at fault." You just ruined your car AND have to pay more going forward now.
I wanna know how people think they can break check a truck. Like. Those things can't stop immediately. They just can't. They aren't built for quick stops. Like trains.
If you look, he didn't actually brake check him. He tapped his brakes just to burn off some of his passing speed. There was no decrease in distance between them, he just stopped creating more distance. Most people just coast to bleed off extra speed in that situation, but being dark if you aren't paying attention, it might appear it was a brake check. Cop pulled him over for speeding, not a brake check.
Frank Smith In most states it’s illegal to pass on the right anyway. Regardless, driver was in the wrong. He sped to pass a police officer, passed on the right, and possibly brake checked - all around awful driver.
@@sarahh4389 This whole video is about brake checking. That he got pulled over for not brake checking does actually matter in a video supposedly of only brake checkers.
fuckyou666420 yeah the cop was actively breaking the law and creating a hazard to other drivers. I would challenge any tickets in court so at the very least the cop has to answer a yes/no question of if he was breaking the law before and during the stop.
2:13 I know we are supposed to be focusing on the white car, but wtf was that tractor driver doing? buddy literally full sent it across the road without yielding
Both are dumb why did he speed up when he clearly was trying to merge his way in with enough space. Ans then proceed to lay on the horn when he successfully merged without hitting him and continued honking. That wasn't even a scenario to honk wasn't a near hit or anything.
@Heather Petersen being rammed may happen anyway, but you don't this to cause you to hit the vehicle in front. By gently slowing down you can decrease the distance between you and the vehicles in front and prevent a pile-up. It also means if you get rammed it will be at a lower speed.
Right... If you're not working, you have no reason to be pissed off at anyone at this point. Boo hoo, you can't get to starbucks or you're really bad at time management. We trying to work, get the hell outta everyone's way.
That 1:53 was absolutely a brake check. One can argue that the other car was following way too close, but that was 100% a brake a check. He had no reason to slow down after overtaking and the way he quickly raced away when the other car lost control meant he was actively watching him.
Looking at it, relative to the front car, the distance didn't change a single bit during the "brake check". It was basically barely touching the petal so the brake light appeared, but didn't actually slow the car. I think the fault of the vehicle crash falls entirely on the rear car for not even attempting to slow down but instead making a reckless maneuver. If it was a brake check, it wasn't intended to be an insurance scam at the very least. Most likely the vehicle was being pressured into driving faster than was safe due to tailgating, and so slowed down slightly where the rear vehicle made an extremely risky maneuver instead of properly slowing down.
@@AeyakS im not arguing for or against, im simply saying that it was a brake check. Whether or not the car actually slowed down AT ALL is irrelevant. He touched his brakes and thats what mattered. If I point a loaded firearm at your face, but I dont pull the trigger, are you wrong for having any form of reaction? No. There is no difference here.
no if he's sees this video he'll be thinking "I stopped because I thought this asshole was tryna run me over he came around the corner tryna hit me. Homing in like a fucking missile" Except he's nowhere near literate enough to express much of that
Just installed mine today after a guy cut me off in the middle of an intersection and started breaking hard, luckily my brembo breaks are better than his lol
These vids inspired me. All my vehicles are equipped with one. Used them to file a report to a trucking company who’s driver forced their semi truck into a queue for entering a highway and almost clipped me.
My favorites are when the pedestrian gives the "tough-guy stare down" and then walks into stuff! Priceless. My dad would say "Pedestrians have the right-of-way, just don't try to prove it."
Pedestrians do not always have the right of way. If they aren’t crossing at a cross walk, then they have to yield to drivers, not the other way around.
My thoughts exactly. Yeah the two cars were probably speeding but the tractor just bum rushing across four lanes of traffic was definitely the most significant factor in the accident.
Legit though. At least one of those two were being dumb (maybe both), but who drives a friggen tractor across several lanes of highway traffic at like 10 MPH?
It’s a scam, like people who walk in front of cars and lay down pretending to be hit. Little do they know, their supposed victim had a dash cam on the whole time.
They brake check so if the persons car does hit them, that person is now at fault for following too closely. I used to think it was legal but so glad I learned before I ever go and try it on the next asshole who tailgates .
@@Rickyyy24 Well theres tapping your brakes just enough so the lights come on and you don't actually slow down and then there's a full on brake check. As far as I'm aware scaring the crap out of someone by flashing your brake lights is allowed
@@MavHawk2 as it should be. When someone is so far up my cars asshole. i can see the food stuck in their teeth through my rear view its just dangerous. Gonna tap the breaks on those assholes all day long to scare them.
Honestly, I think they should increase the penalty for the tickets/insurance for this. These types of actions could've cost somebody's life. It really makes my blood boil when I see drivers like this
Agreed and its even worse when you/someone you love has been in accident and you have seen the possible trauma. Really hotheads cutting people off and acting idiotic have no business driving a motorised vehicle.
How are they in the wrong and NOT the guy tailgating? ... follow to close is illegal. Breaking isn’t. All they have to say is I thought something was in front of me. That’s it and the guy who was tailgating/following to close will almost always be sighted.
B G not unless they have dash cam footage of the car being an idiot. Also break checking can result in serious injuries for not only the other driver but the driver who break checks
B G braking just because someone is tail gaiting is illegal. Tailgating isn’t, brake checking because of ignorance is never the answer, I just continue to go slower, there other way besides setting someone up to hit you.
@The Monster Under Your Bed - you ASSume that I'm super close.... I'm not. But at the same I'm not about to drive 10 miles an hour, half a block away neither.
Bad brakes = can't brake well, just fyi. See we don't have as much of this stupidity in my area as cops actually pull people over for being slow idiots in the left lane.
We get so few chances to see Cop Karma happen. In my 26 years of life, I've only seen it happen twice. Once was on a school bus going to HS. Driver ran a stopped lit school bus and cop was right there waiting. 2nd time was about 1 year ago. It was fucking spectacular. Had a Challenger race by me. Dude must've been going 100+mph. Wonderful sight moments later. My state still has a few Crown Victorias zipping around. This one *RIPPED* by me, hounding that challenger down! Luckily there werent many people on the highway, as this was after rush hour. They flew off to the horizon! About 10 minutes later, i pass by them. They must have set up spikes, cause his two rear tires were flat. And they had a K9 Tahoe there. Not a common sight. But man, WHAT a sight!
Dishonored exactly! They expect the one following to be half a mile away from the car in front of them or else it’s their fault when they hit the car in front of them but how can you when you’re getting brake checked?
@@lastresort5015 it gets so cold up in the northern states that you can't keep your dashcams in your car year round. Some winters stay so long and hit so cold they make dashcams useful only 6 months out of the year
@@v5u7sulh2 when a car randomly switches lanes right in front of you and brake before you can react, especially if youre in a big car like a semi, then there's nothing you can do about it. thats why I always drive with a dashcam just in case
The car turned into a road the pedestrian was already crossing. Unambiguous - the pedestrian had right of way, he was already on the highway when the car turned up.
@@TheIT221 Theoretically, it's a good idea. Every once in a while during a long drive, tap the brakes to make sure they still work. If they don't, you now know before you needed to slow down or stop, which is the worst time to learn they've gone out. Practically, a well-maintained car can very easily go its entire life without a catastrophic brake failure. It's a bit more of a concern for tractor trailers since they constantly carry heavy loads, but even then it's an uncommon thing at worst. Of course, none of that matters in the slightest since nobody actually brake checks to check their brakes, they just treat the brake pedal as the horn for people behind them. I assume it stems from people stopping suddenly on foot to let someone walking behind them know they're too close without considering how the consequences of a collision differ between the two situations. And, of course, some people are just trying to scam your insurance company.
Our roadways are poorly designed, with plenty of inside-lane exits, small/no acceleration ramps, and unoptimized lane mathematics. While our drivers have zero highway training, no passing discipline, and no cultural bonds for people to think "Hey, that driver is another human being like me."
@@TheIT221 That's right, I'm not trying to pin it on America specifically, that's just how I learned about it. Cutting people off or blocking their way happens here too but quickly slowing down a bit only to annoy someone behind you or teach a tailgater a lesson is something I've never heard about or seen on Western Europe dashcam.

@@jojack56 you should never show your hand until you need to. if the other person knows you were recording it’s going to affect how they tell their story to police and insurance companies.
As I agree with a lot of these, so many of these situations can easily be avoided by being courteous and letting people merge. I’ve drove a semi for 15 years and letting off the accelerator for 20 seconds is one of the easiest things you can do to create a safe driving atmosphere for everyone around you
I dispatch trucks and I hear about these assholes every day. Trucks cannot stop on a dime!! We are always reminding drivers to keep a safe distance to try and prevent things like this.
@@PunkRockBarbie No they can't "stop on a dime" but that is completely irrelevant because they don't need to stop they just need to slow a little. Have a modicum of courtesy and allow people to merge instead of being a complete asshole and forcing someone off the road just because you're too pig headed to allow someone in front of you, GOD FORBID.
@@BenBlackEquinoxEngelhard please learn to read. I said "we're always telling them to keep a safe distance" which would include braking. Unfortunately some drivers have a huge ego and seem to think that asshole drivers that cut them off deserve to be hit. Which, sometimes they kindo do but that doesn't make it right to do.
@@PunkRockBarbie I read it and am not debating that one bit. The video that stuck in my head while I was writing my comment was the one where the merging car was trying to get up and in but the truck driver obviously sped up to not let them merge. Totally aggressive and dangerous. *edit I had actually liked your comment but idk what happened.
i agree; if you dont let them merge they have to slow to a full stop, which causes sudden traffic right before the highway, i e. higher risk of accidents to take place, there is also an increased chance of traffic jams, all because you simply didnt want to let a car in front of you
Spherz no it was not legal, the driver literally drove through without stopping and checking both sides, for it to be legal the driver has to drive with caution and look for oncoming traffic, or have the co-workers stop traffic to drive to the other side of the road.
@@Brandumb Ummmm.. what? Did I miss something in the video? It looks like he cut right across traffic. EDIT: rewatched, and yes the dozer cut right across traffic. Either you're trolling or you need to rewatch the video.
@@kidzbop38isstraightfire92 Not only did he have his lights on but he was going slow across the road but Mr speedy Gonzales was thinking he could pass and didn't brake there fore he ended up in a ditch
@@Brandumb no no no, that's not how driving works. It doesn't matter how fast or slow someone is going, it's up to the person entering the other driver's lane (I. E. The person crossing the road) to ensure that they can make it safely across. Having lights on makes no difference... And going slow across the road in this case is actually worse, but that's all irrelevant. That would be like pulling out and stopping in front of someone who is going 60mph on a highway and saying "well, he was speeding, that's his fault for running into me". The person who enters the other driver's lane at any point is the one legally responsible for ensuring that he has clearance. This is directly out of the Drivers Safety Handbook. I agree with you that the driver was going fast and should have been more cautious, but legally this rests entirely on the dozer driver, as it should.
Absolutely, I'm 19 and in the UK, have been driving for 3 months and in that time have had 5 accidents, all brake checked me and all got caught by my dashcam, they see a young person and think easy money because who's more likely to have caused the crash the one driving for twenty years or 3 months?
@@NespeCoaching old people are stupid dude. obviously it's someone who just got their license AKA just took the test and knows the laws by heart. rather than some middle age guy who's balding.
I have a car that has been hit many times it’s worth about $200 and since it’s very old it’s a 1930 pick up truck so If I get hit I take them to court and have them pay for me to buy new parts And that usually involves me making the parts as they are not produced anymore
D you know you’re lying when you can’t understand that they put the weight in the argument because of how much harder it is to brake. brake checking a heavy vehicle is asking to get rear ended
Tractor probably shouldn't have crossed at that point, but had those cars not been pissing around they would've seen it coming and slowed down. It's first visible from 2:18 and not arriving at the intersection until 2:26 giving plenty of time to react.
I had a guy push himself over into me running me into oncoming traffic after his lane ended. I laid on the horn and all I hear is "whop whop" and flashing lights. There was a MARKED police car a few cars back who witnessed the whole thing and pulled him over. It was so satisfying
I agree. Having the right of way does not mean you can intentionally prevent someone from merging. The guy in the first video was an ass too. The merging driver had his signal on and plenty of room to merge yet peckerhead had to keep speeding up.
I have never even understood the absolute menaces to society that break on purpose to make you crash into them, it really doesn’t matter how mad I get while driving I don’t want to have to stop and wait for 2 or more hours of my day waiting for insurance and waiting to resolve the accident, it’s just mind boggling to me how someone would even want to go through the hassle just for a little “revenge”.
Someone stopped at complete 0 from 70 in front of me on the freeway doing this. I couldve died but I had a great car with new brakes. He did it like 3x and then i called the cops. They said they already knew about him and shortly thereafter I watched a cop pull him over. Should get a dash cam.
If you follow at 1 car length per 10mph like you are legally supposed to it's impossible to be "brake checked" last I check making sure your brakes work is legal running into the back of a car isnt
@@krixlduke2217 No. While indeed you should always try to keep distance doing a "break checking" while driving and especially with a car behind you is not legal, look it up. Also, there are many ways to get break checked. In some of these cases on this video I agree that people were tailgating, however in many others the drivers purposefully passed and positioned themselves close to the other vehicle and breake checked them right away out of malice so you cannot possibly tell me that it's impossible to get "break checked" if you follow the car in front of you at 1 car per 10mph because that is a stupid thing to say, a car can always come and get between you and that other car and break check you so please drop the sanctimonious act.
@Nicolas RAGE Sometimes you can't pass them because there are people driving the right way and keeping to the right lane so then you're stuck behind the asshat that cut you off in the left. Tailgating does solve problems because if they're dumb enough to brake check you, they're gonna learn first hand that they screwed up. If you just sit there and let them do it, they'll never learn a lesson and keep doing it.
@Nicolas RAGE They'd be causing accident if they brake check. You wanna know how traffic jams amd accidents are made? And idiot driving too slow in a lane they should not be.
Love the genius cruising in the turn lanes idea of stopping on the freeway when getting pulled over xD “if I don’t go in front of the cop car then I can’t be pulled over” LMAO
I wonder what the ordinances are on just, you know, kinda welding a couple of big ol 4" steel gate posts onto a crash bar. I feel like that'd be kinda fun
I was told “if someone makes a mistake on the road it’s up to you to correct it” when ppl cut me off, yeah it bugs the helll out of me but I don’t go into a road rage and tail them and get aggressive. I’d rather get somewhere safe than not at all.
Yes, that's the mature thing to do. If someone is being an idiot, I make room rather than block them and possibly cause an accident. Some of us have to be the adults
@@AMindInOverdrive The only time I'll road rage is when someone is purposely trying to put me at risk of serious injury or death. Any honest mistake I don't get mad about or petty incident like being cut off I don't bother getting mad about.
i hate people who brake check people and start yelling at the person who hit their bumper. like maybe don’t slam on your brakes in the middle of an open road? (edit : i’m talking abt the people who decide even if a person isn’t riding their ass that they need to brake to get insurance money. yk? ) (another edit: idk where y’all are from but in arizona people drive stupid asf. so maybe its just arizona where people brake check for literally no reason.
I agree, there's no right or wrong here, if it's going to cause an accident just do NOT DO IT. Besides, you can tap the brake light without actually slowing your car down. I use legal hand signals first to signal slowing/stopping (or stop tail-gating) but most people don't remember them from the DL test.
One time this lady was at a red light, when it turned green she didn't move. I waited about 5 seconds and then i lightly honked at her. She looked back at me angry and sped up fast and then tried to break check me. I had to make a right so i turned and she stayed behind screaming. Wtf is wrong with people lol 🤣
And if they had good driving lessons and well maintained cars... the way those cars spin out of control when they brake is so weird. At those low speeds I usually only see that on North American or Russian videos.
@Robert E Lee Well if americans drive them no wonder if buying used ones is bad, where im from there are plenty good, if you buy them from a known source, although americans want to have expensive shit and cry for everything and anything
It's the law too. In 99.9% of cases, the driver that rear-ends another driver is found to be at fault by default. You are legally required to keep a safe braking distance from the vehicle in front of you, the only exception to this is if the person attempts to cause an accident as part of an insurance fraud scheme. Basically, unless the person in front of you is committing a crime, you are responsible if you rear-end them for any reason.
I love the ones where they make it obvious that they're brake checking, like when someone barely even taps them and they immediately jump into the shoulder and hop out of their car to talk

2:35 If your ego is too large to let someone safely merge when a lane is ending (even if the other car is in the wrong) then you shouldn't be driving a semi in the first place. Their actions could've killed everyone in that car.
Right of way during lane merge? Wouldn't that jam the lane that doesn't have right of way if the other lane runs full of traffic? Sounds like a terrible traffic rule to me. Atleast in Norway lane merge is done by letting people in infront of you if they are even slightly ahead of you to allow traffic to keep flowing.
@@Radray I'm speaking under the circumstance of that instance, where the person recording from the semi was entirely in the wrong by not letting that person safely into their lane. If youre causing more harm than good by not letting someone over, then why not just let them over? It's egotistical to say otherwise.

@@tomatop6754 It is every driver's obligation to avoid an accident to the best of their ability. The semi accelerated to close a gap that was open. And none of this nonsense about "right of way". It's a merge. In merges, the vehicle that is further behind yields. The vehicle that is on the left does not have a magical right to cut off those on the right. Next, the semi declines to pull over after an accident, a clear violation. Then, the car passes in the chicken lane, a violation. Lastly, the car brakes gently, clearly giving the semi plenty of room to stop. However, the semi continues to accelerate towards the car for about a second before hitting the brakes, and doesn't appear to use full braking force to avoid the collision. Of course, it can be hard to tell, because semis can be really shit at braking, but it definitely looks like the semi could have braked harder to avoid the second collision. In short, the car is definitely at fault for some of it, but the semi clearly takes most of the fault, especially because they did not signal an intent to pull over (presumably. It's possible the semi put on the hazards, but it does not look like that was the case).
@@tomatop6754 The truck driver is an asshole, who should have his license revoked with this vid as evidence. Like the OP said he accelerated, a total prick.

Some years ago I took a driving safety class with my newly licensed daughter. They told us that 75% of accidents in our state (Massachusetts) happen because people drive too close to the vehicle in front. While most of the brake checkers are idiots and cause the "accident" to occur, there are many instances where nothing would have happened if everyone maintained a safer distance between them and the car in front.
Winter is upon us and I just know many idiots will get into pileups on the freeway because they practice driving bumper to bumper all summer and it won't work out so well still pulling that at 70 mph in slippery conditions.
This. I took a course for drivers a while back (my insurance gives reduced coverage rates to people who take it and pass), and the instructor referred to it as M.E.L.D., or Minimum Eye-Lead Distance. At least one car length on municipal roads, and at least 3 car lengths on the highway.
Yea most of the collisions in this video would have the rear car at fault since they should’ve kept a safe traveling distance. So many cars are driving way too close
@@Noobzlikeu Which is the perfect recipe for someone to cut right in front of you because they can fit there car into that gap. It is a nice rule in theory but impractical in reality since people will take advantage of any gap they can squeeze into.
2:37 The cammer is an Ahole. The car legitimately passed when there were two lanes, and properly placed themselves for the merge. Cammer guns the engine to cut off the space, and even with that, is not able to get past the car until after it is one lane. This does not excuse the duschbaggery of the other driver after that, but the cammer was wrong.

I loved the man walking into the pole. When my girls started high school I sat in a line waiting to pick them up. I seen so many of the students walking into poles while texting. They didn't even stop their texting when they hit the pole. And most of them throughout the year were some of the same ones over and over.
This guy wasn't even texting. He was in the middle of the street jaywalking, then when the car paused for him, he SLOWED down walking across the road in front and glaring at the driver.

People turning right from the left turn lane, when I am in the right turn lane. (Not trucks) People turning right in front of me when I had ride of way. People are idiots. You can crash into all the idiots if you feel like it, or you could live longer, be alert, throw away your ego, and maybe not crash into them... And don't think you are going to teach them a lesson by hitting them. Regardless of what you, the officer, the court, or the insurance company says, they will believe it was your fault til the day they die.
Well no, because most of these are semi trucks, and people aren’t giving them ample room to react. Not that a Semi truck driver cares, if they rear end a car they aren’t the ones that’ll be hurt.
honestly the tailgating and speeding past isnt bad, the law is that the left lane is only for passing, so the cop would be in the wrong, and most cases if a vehicle is not getting out of the way the car behind just goes a little closer so the car ahead can see them and move. (ofc tailgating really close for a long time is also bad) Speeding past is also okay because often cars just camp in the passing lane, and wont move even if you get close to them. But the brake check was completely unnecessary.
@@adityanair5613 I disagree on severity. Speeding, tailgating, and brake checking are far worse but mostly out of precedence. They are also against the law. Though it is the law to move over (in most US States) when you are not passing there are far less issues with staying in the passing lane. While speeding, tailgating, and brake checking are frowned upon across the board. They also are more quantifiable, where staying in the passing lane can be subjective. Particularly in the clip where it looks like the cop had possibly just passed someone. Even in my state, which has a move over law, you have to congest about 12 cars before a cop would even consider pulling you over for riding in the passing lane.
It's even funnier considering where he lives, that's Juravinski Hospital he's walking to on Concession St in Hamilton, the town is full of big brains that will walk or ride their bikes right in front of you doing 60 and expect you to stop for them, best thing is being in a parking lot backing out of a spot, these bright boys will run across the lot to walk behind your car hoping you will hit them not paying attn, it's the electric scooter capitol of the world due to half the town losing their license for DUI or no insurance or license. Went to court there once, I was the only person out of 52 people in traffic court with a license and insurance that day.

Pedestrians have the right of way, but this is a bit much, there is a crosswalk 50 feet ahead. I wonder if he expected the utility pole to yield to his right of way or whether he was interested in its warm embrace? Did the utility pole sweetly whisper in his ear, “I’ve been waiting for you”?

Sometimes its the other way around. One thing for sure, the video where he doesn't let the the driver over is screwed up. Your car is 30 ft long, and sometimes you don't expect a merge, shit happens.

One day during an ice storm I lost control of my car going pretty slow, maybe between 15-25 mph. The truck in front of me saw this happen and did the craziest and most impressive brake check I’ve ever witnessed. He matched my speed, and then brake checked me in just the right way that we both came to a stop with no damage. I looked at his mirror and he winked at me like he knew exactly what he just did.

Gotta be honest: it's really gratifying to see a brake checker followed by "insurance placed them at fault." You just ruined your car AND have to pay more going forward now.

And also their car
I wanna know how people think they can break check a truck. Like. Those things can't stop immediately. They just can't. They aren't built for quick stops. Like trains.

@@thatpacho but the person they hit is at fault because they break checked
"Break checking an unmarked police car", now THAT'S the dumbest thing I've ever heard 😂
...and the jaywalker who bumped into a pole 😂😂
If you look, he didn't actually brake check him. He tapped his brakes just to burn off some of his passing speed. There was no decrease in distance between them, he just stopped creating more distance. Most people just coast to bleed off extra speed in that situation, but being dark if you aren't paying attention, it might appear it was a brake check. Cop pulled him over for speeding, not a brake check.
Frank Smith In most states it’s illegal to pass on the right anyway. Regardless, driver was in the wrong. He sped to pass a police officer, passed on the right, and possibly brake checked - all around awful driver.

If you’re upset with a semi truck driver, take a deep breath or two and let it go. It never ends well for the car.
@Heather Petersen you should never respond to tailgating by speeding up.
@Heather Petersen being rammed may happen anyway, but you don't this to cause you to hit the vehicle in front. By gently slowing down you can decrease the distance between you and the vehicles in front and prevent a pile-up. It also means if you get rammed it will be at a lower speed.

@@whatsomeonesaidwastaken9216 getting rammed is way less dangerous if there is space in front of you
That 1:53 was absolutely a brake check.
One can argue that the other car was following way too close, but that was 100% a brake a check. He had no reason to slow down after overtaking and the way he quickly raced away when the other car lost control meant he was actively watching him.
either or the white car should be charged with miss and run
Tailgating is illegal, simple. This is where brake checks came from for all you youngsters.
Looking at it, relative to the front car, the distance didn't change a single bit during the "brake check". It was basically barely touching the petal so the brake light appeared, but didn't actually slow the car.
I think the fault of the vehicle crash falls entirely on the rear car for not even attempting to slow down but instead making a reckless maneuver.
If it was a brake check, it wasn't intended to be an insurance scam at the very least. Most likely the vehicle was being pressured into driving faster than was safe due to tailgating, and so slowed down slightly where the rear vehicle made an extremely risky maneuver instead of properly slowing down.
@@AeyakS im not arguing for or against, im simply saying that it was a brake check.
Whether or not the car actually slowed down AT ALL is irrelevant. He touched his brakes and thats what mattered.

The idea of a brake check is something I had never heard about until watching all these American dashcam videos. It's insane behavior.
In our defense, many of these aren’t American… but true lol, didn’t know what a “break check” was till now
@@TheIT221 Most of them are American though. Very few arent
@@TheIT221 Theoretically, it's a good idea. Every once in a while during a long drive, tap the brakes to make sure they still work. If they don't, you now know before you needed to slow down or stop, which is the worst time to learn they've gone out.
Practically, a well-maintained car can very easily go its entire life without a catastrophic brake failure. It's a bit more of a concern for tractor trailers since they constantly carry heavy loads, but even then it's an uncommon thing at worst.
Of course, none of that matters in the slightest since nobody actually brake checks to check their brakes, they just treat the brake pedal as the horn for people behind them. I assume it stems from people stopping suddenly on foot to let someone walking behind them know they're too close without considering how the consequences of a collision differ between the two situations. And, of course, some people are just trying to scam your insurance company.
Our roadways are poorly designed, with plenty of inside-lane exits, small/no acceleration ramps, and unoptimized lane mathematics. While our drivers have zero highway training, no passing discipline, and no cultural bonds for people to think "Hey, that driver is another human being like me."
@@TheIT221 That's right, I'm not trying to pin it on America specifically, that's just how I learned about it. Cutting people off or blocking their way happens here too but quickly slowing down a bit only to annoy someone behind you or teach a tailgater a lesson is something I've never heard about or seen on Western Europe dashcam.

As I agree with a lot of these, so many of these situations can easily be avoided by being courteous and letting people merge.

@@BenBlackEquinoxEngelhard please learn to read. I said "we're always telling them to keep a safe distance" which would include braking. Unfortunately some drivers have a huge ego and seem to think that asshole drivers that cut them off deserve to be hit. Which, sometimes they kindo do but that doesn't make it right to do.
@@PunkRockBarbie I read it and am not debating that one bit. The video that stuck in my head while I was writing my comment was the one where the merging car was trying to get up and in but the truck driver obviously sped up to not let them merge. Totally aggressive and dangerous. *edit I had actually liked your comment but idk what happened.
i agree; if you dont let them merge they have to slow to a full stop, which causes sudden traffic right before the highway, i e. higher risk of accidents to take place, there is also an increased chance of traffic jams, all because you simply didnt want to let a car in front of you

@@Spherz Pretty sure how they did it was not legal.
Idk but it was karma for that car being a dick
Spherz no it was not legal, the driver literally drove through without stopping and checking both sides, for it to be legal the driver has to drive with caution and look for oncoming traffic, or have the co-workers stop traffic to drive to the other side of the road.

@@Brandumb no no no, that's not how driving works. It doesn't matter how fast or slow someone is going, it's up to the person entering the other driver's lane (I. E. The person crossing the road) to ensure that they can make it safely across. Having lights on makes no difference... And going slow across the road in this case is actually worse, but that's all irrelevant. That would be like pulling out and stopping in front of someone who is going 60mph on a highway and saying "well, he was speeding, that's his fault for running into me". The person who enters the other driver's lane at any point is the one legally responsible for ensuring that he has clearance. This is directly out of the Drivers Safety Handbook. I agree with you that the driver was going fast and should have been more cautious, but legally this rests entirely on the dozer driver, as it should.

I agree. Having the right of way does not mean you can intentionally prevent someone from merging. The guy in the first video was an ass too. The merging driver had his signal on and plenty of room to merge yet peckerhead had to keep speeding up.
Not to mention it helps the flow of traffic. This is how traffic jams are started.
I have never even understood the absolute menaces to society that break on purpose to make you crash into them, it really doesn’t matter how mad I get while driving I don’t want to have to stop and wait for 2 or more hours of my day waiting for insurance and waiting to resolve the accident, it’s just mind boggling to me how someone would even want to go through the hassle just for a little “revenge”.
Someone stopped at complete 0 from 70 in front of me on the freeway doing this. I couldve died but I had a great car with new brakes. He did it like 3x and then i called the cops. They said they already knew about him and shortly thereafter I watched a cop pull him over. Should get a dash cam.
Maybe the driver in #10 should get the F outta the passing lane.

It's the law too. In 99.9% of cases, the driver that rear-ends another driver is found to be at fault by default. You are legally required to keep a safe braking distance from the vehicle in front of you, the only exception to this is if the person attempts to cause an accident as part of an insurance fraud scheme. Basically, unless the person in front of you is committing a crime, you are responsible if you rear-end them for any reason.

2:35 If your ego is too large to let someone safely merge when a lane is ending (even if the other car is in the wrong) then you shouldn't be driving a semi in the first place. Their actions could've killed everyone in that car.
Right of way during lane merge? Wouldn't that jam the lane that doesn't have right of way if the other lane runs full of traffic? Sounds like a terrible traffic rule to me. Atleast in Norway lane merge is done by letting people in infront of you if they are even slightly ahead of you to allow traffic to keep flowing.
@@Radray I'm speaking under the circumstance of that instance, where the person recording from the semi was entirely in the wrong by not letting that person safely into their lane.

@@J7Handle You dont go shifting lanes in front of a semi. The car shouldve waited and went behind him. Not break the law right after like a dumbass.
@@tomatop6754 It is every driver's obligation to avoid an accident to the best of their ability. The semi accelerated to close a gap that was open. And none of this nonsense about "right of way". It's a merge. In merges, the vehicle that is further behind yields. The vehicle that is on the left does not have a magical right to cut off those on the right.
Next, the semi declines to pull over after an accident, a clear violation. Then, the car passes in the chicken lane, a violation. Lastly, the car brakes gently, clearly giving the semi plenty of room to stop. However, the semi continues to accelerate towards the car for about a second before hitting the brakes, and doesn't appear to use full braking force to avoid the collision. Of course, it can be hard to tell, because semis can be really shit at braking, but it definitely looks like the semi could have braked harder to avoid the second collision.
In short, the car is definitely at fault for some of it, but the semi clearly takes most of the fault, especially because they did not signal an intent to pull over (presumably. It's possible the semi put on the hazards, but it does not look like that was the case).
@@tomatop6754 The truck driver is an asshole, who should have his license revoked with this vid as evidence. Like the OP said he accelerated, a total prick.

Some years ago I took a driving safety class with my newly licensed daughter. They told us that 75% of accidents in our state (Massachusetts) happen because people drive too close to the vehicle in front. While most of the brake checkers are idiots and cause the "accident" to occur, there are many instances where nothing would have happened if everyone maintained a safer distance between them and the car in front.
Winter is upon us and I just know many idiots will get into pileups on the freeway because they practice driving bumper to bumper all summer and it won't work out so well still pulling that at 70 mph in slippery conditions.
This. I took a course for drivers a while back (my insurance gives reduced coverage rates to people who take it and pass), and the instructor referred to it as M.E.L.D., or Minimum Eye-Lead Distance. At least one car length on municipal roads, and at least 3 car lengths on the highway.
Yea most of the collisions in this video would have the rear car at fault since they should’ve kept a safe traveling distance. So many cars are driving way too close
Correct. In most cases brake checkers were not even in the wrong according to law
All of the people driving in this video are terrible drivers
@@Noobzlikeu Which is the perfect recipe for someone to cut right in front of you because they can fit there car into that gap. It is a nice rule in theory but impractical in reality since people will take advantage of any gap they can squeeze into.
2:37 The cammer is an Ahole. The car legitimately passed when there were two lanes, and properly placed themselves for the merge. Cammer guns the engine to cut off the space, and even with that, is not able to get past the car until after it is one lane. This does not excuse the duschbaggery of the other driver after that, but the cammer was wrong.
Exactly. The other driver was either being a bit rude or wasn't paying attention, but the cammer was just being a prick.

00:47 is insane imagine tailgating, speeding past, AND brake checking a cop all in one 😂
i would love to see how that traffic stop turned out 😂
honestly the tailgating and speeding past isnt bad, the law is that the left lane is only for passing, so the cop would be in the wrong, and most cases if a vehicle is not getting out of the way the car behind just goes a little closer so the car ahead can see them and move. (ofc tailgating really close for a long time is also bad) Speeding past is also okay because often cars just camp in the passing lane, and wont move even if you get close to them. But the brake check was completely unnecessary.
@@adityanair5613 I disagree on severity. Speeding, tailgating, and brake checking are far worse but mostly out of precedence. They are also against the law. Though it is the law to move over (in most US States) when you are not passing there are far less issues with staying in the passing lane. While speeding, tailgating, and brake checking are frowned upon across the board. They also are more quantifiable, where staying in the passing lane can be subjective. Particularly in the clip where it looks like the cop had possibly just passed someone. Even in my state, which has a move over law, you have to congest about 12 cars before a cop would even consider pulling you over for riding in the passing lane.
Mf got what he deserved
F**k around and find out
3:40 insolent jaywalker smacking his face against the pole was laugh-out-loud satisfying. Had to watch it twice.
Totally comical. He went for the extended stare-down like a true John Wayne wannabe
I laughed way too hard at that one.
It's even funnier considering where he lives, that's Juravinski Hospital he's walking to on Concession St in Hamilton, the town is full of big brains that will walk or ride their bikes right in front of you doing 60 and expect you to stop for them, best thing is being in a parking lot backing out of a spot, these bright boys will run across the lot to walk behind your car hoping you will hit them not paying attn, it's the electric scooter capitol of the world due to half the town losing their license for DUI or no insurance or license. Went to court there once, I was the only person out of 52 people in traffic court with a license and insurance that day. Crackheads and wanna be tough guys live in that town, they will tell you all day long how tough they are, never fight just talk you to death..
😁😁
I watched datshht more thantwice 😂
If I had the dashcam and were entirely in the right I would be getting out of my car lmao saying "smile--you're on candid camera!!
3:33 Big tough jaywalker stares down a motorist who's in the right, slows for safety of the guy, but big tough jaywalker continues to stare him down, and then.... Right out of a Chaplin movie
As someone who jaywalked a lot to get to work on time, if you're going to defy death and step way from safety guidelines made to protect you, do it with intelligence. Wait for no cars or cars to stop. You only have right of way on the crosswalk and parking lot
This is why I carry a 1911 45'er on my passenger seat.
@@LSSG_Broly wow cool
@@Frog-Shaped-Slime at the very least check both ways and make a quick jog to the other sidewalk if it's clear, this guy here took his sweet fuckin time strutting across that road
Pedestrians have the right of way, but this is a bit much, there is a crosswalk 50 feet ahead. I wonder if he expected the utility pole to yield to his right of way or whether he was interested in its warm embrace? Did the utility pole sweetly whisper in his ear, “I’ve been waiting for you”?
