@@mikesmith-po8nd I had a buddy in college slip two discs following me on a 20 ft snowboard jump. Dude is still dealing with it 10+ years later. He'll probably always have pain/discomfort from it.
#3 0:40 I am not concurring to the other insurance company decision (maybe have yours argue with them). The other driver not only made an unsafe lane change (turning right while the Cammer had a protected left turn), but also did not maintain the lane after turning.
Many women drivers find it nearly impossible to turn into the nearest lane as required by state laws as well as maintaining their lane in multi-turn lane situations. You just have to expect it unfortunately- and as noted by this situation, are rarely held accountable for their dangerous inability to drive safely and legally.
@@tpolerex7282 Okay, first off you're wrong. Most people are wrongly taught on how to make a right or left turn. Unless they were taught by professionals. Second off, how sexist of you to say that "many women" are the main ones. Thirdly, this cammer needs to hire a lawyer and make her insurance fight the outcome. They just don't want to pay 100 percent.
@@masonclarke3314 I don't think it's sexist. A lot of my female friends have complained about how hard it is to turn the steering wheel when they're driving at slow speed (like a right turn on red). It's a consequence of difference in arm strength between men and women. Not prejudice. I've often wondered why car manufacturers don't let you dial up the power steering boost so each driver could select a level that's comfortable for them. You could tie it in with the power seat adjustment presets, so multiple drivers of the same car could automatically use their own setting.
Wow, the sexist comments on here. My wife has been driving for years and never had a problem turning a power steering wheel so it has nothing to do with women's arm not being strong enough to turn a power steering wheel so shut up please. OMG! Grow up dudes. Bunch of idiots commenting like that. I'm on the road almost everyday working out of my car and see plenty of women driving correctly with no problem. Damn sexist.
3:12 so? They were already doing 35 in a 60 (actually fast for that stretch of I-35). Chevy should have been well aware traffic was stopping but he just rolled on in without even slowing.
@@spamlessaccount Right, I don't doubt that the Chevy was following too close to begin with. But the car in front had been braking for a while before the cammer slammed on her brakes as she got way closer. That could have prevented this. A lot of the accidents in this video are preventable on the cammer's part, and that is perhaps the biggest one.
@ 6:12, “both are idiots” there was absolutely no way the truck would’ve been able to stop before the intersection when the light turned yellow. Cammer is incompetent tbh
"He decided to hit the Honda." One of the stupidest comment on the internet! Really? He didn't decide the Honda, it all happened so fast. How can you expect him to make any decision that fast and which way to go? What a retard statement. I feel bad for the truck driver.
It appears the cammer is not all that sharp? I see what he saw, the truck seemingly veer towards the left turning vehicle but that appears to just be a result of heavy braking and simply trying to avoid the collision, and the truck did not appear to be trying to beat the yellow. It's OK mystery truck driver...we got yer 6.
to be fair, the passenger saw what was going to happen well in advance and even warned the cammer, so I think the insurance company has a pretty good case here that the cammer could have avoided the accident. I'd fight it if I was the cammer, but insurance isn't exactly wrong that they failed to avoid the accident
@@jason5897 It was WAAAAYYYYY too late of a warning for any reasonable action to be taken. They were hit in the rear quarter and if he braked, he would have been hit much farther up front. The car making the right on the red had to yield and also crossed the lanes. 100% at fault. Insurance fighting this will get fucked in court.
The insurance corporation is trying to weasel-out of a claim, despite the damage being caused by the incompetent or passive-agressive driving behavior of the other car owner that ignored an apparent red signal and then attempted to occupy both of the available lanes. I have encountered such drivers in the same situation at various intersections, and have found that giving them more room only invites them to do what happened to the victim here. They believe that everyone else is required to "drive defensively," which means to them that everyone else must accommodate their violations of the traffic laws.
Turning on a "Protected" turn with the green arrow light in your favour your driving concentration is on maintaining a proper radius in your turn so you turn into the correct lane. Having the GREEN ARROW means the other driver shot through a TOTAL RED LIGHT.
Video #16 5:45 Flukybox - It appears you sped up after the "bad driver" who cut you off. That is also called "driving recklessly". If you're going to call out another driver for bad driving, it's best you not do it too, especially on video! ILR Car Control School
Yeah. Your insurance is supposed to fight for you in a disagreement like this. Your insurance premium doesn't just pay for damages you may suffer or cause in an accident. It also pays for legal costs if your insurance company has to fight another insurance company in court over the accident. If you're using a cheap insurance company (fewer customers to amortize court costs over), they may just concede a ridiculous claim like this to save a few hundred bucks, instead of fighting for you tooth and nail. Dashcam footage can help in cases like this. If you provide it to your insurance, it can turn a dozen billable hours for a lawyer into an open and shut case over in 15 minutes.
"Time to get a lawyer"... I would like to see that court battle. Lawyer for Insurance: Do you know what defensive driving is? Cammer: Yes Lawyer: Why didn't you practice it? Cammer: No need to. I had a protective green arrow, it was my lane, I don't care that the other car was coming. I ignored the warnings from my wife because I'm in the right and it was my lane, I had to do nothing. Lawyer: So despite getting warned twice, and seeing the car coming, you took no defensive maneuvers to avoid a collision, hitting your car and maybe hurting your passenger? Cammer: But protected green arrow...other driver at fault...I don't have to do anything to avoid a collision, it's mah lane!! If I'm on a jury hearing that, you damn right I'm finding partial fault for the collision on the cammer.
I am thinking they might have liability only, and their own insurance put the other driver at complete fault. But, yes, they should fight for the cammer considering they will have to partially pay.
I never ever assume someone is pulling into the center lane. I also never pull out in front of someone with their turn signal on. Been burned before in both instances.
So many people drive under the assumption that other drivers will do the right thing. I was taught to always assume that they won't. Person making a left is already slowly pulling out? Then assume they'll cut you off and prepare to respond to that.
@@ARCNA442 In some states such as Pennsylvania, vehicles may also use this lane to end their left turn from a cross street before entering the traffic stream.
@@spamlessaccount After watching it a couple times, I think you're right. But the amount of braking isn't consistent with a hard brake. I think he moved his foot over to the brake in a panic, but his foot mostly missed the pedal.
Video #3 0:40 Jim D. - It's not about whether you know she wants your lane. You assume the other driver will screw it up. You could see from 0:36 that the other driver is starting to make an illegal turn (if it's your "protected" green). You had 4 seconds to process the information that the other driver doesn't know what they are doing. In this case you always assume they will screw up and be ready to take evasive action. It appears you didn't notice she was even turning as it sounds like your passenger had to warn you. ILR Car Control School
You're supposed to look if the road is clear before crossing. Otherwise, where are you going to end? Let me not slow down for the green light because someone might cross a red. Rules were made so that people can expect others to follow them. If not, then the rules have no meaning left to them.
@@icecubee55 But you can already see the other person is not following the rules. If someone's stopped in the middle of the intersection in front of you, running into them is *also* against the rules.
@@spamlessaccount Yeah, I can see that. It's not clear to me on the video how far that dual-turn lane extends, and it was most definitely the woman's fault. But that doesn't give you the "right of way." No law says "X has the right of way over Y." Every law out there says "Y yields the right of way to X." But then X winds up yielding also to avoid collisions and such.
Can we make plateshaming a thing? Publishing the plate numbers on Twitter along with detailed descriptions of incidents so people know how terrible of a driver they are? Seems like the perfect accompaniment to videos like this.
1:25 to 1:30 is quite honestly the most satisfying outcome I have ever experienced on this channel... a person deliberately runs a light, has to stop for a couple vehicles first, then runs the light anyway only to STILL get plowed. I may have achieved climax if it actually rolled all the way over.
@@spamlessaccount you are also required to keep safe distance from the vehicle in front of you and take heed of brake lights. Also, what proof do you have that they were trying to parallel park?
#10 just before the 4:00 mark is very similar to the near miss I had the other night on my way to work. As I approached the light at the intersection on the highway off ramp to turn left I stopped for a moment while the light changed for me and just as I started to go someone dressed completely in black on a bicycle with no lights rode across the sidewalk through a red light right in front of me and completely jump scared me, I still don’t know how I didn’t hit them it was that close, so scary!
Protected green arrow means the white truck must have had a red. I don't know about your state, but in Georgia, right on red MUST yield to ALL other traffic before proceeding.
If someone intentionally impedes my right of way forcing me to brake, they're absolutely getting the horn. That is a hazard, and the very reason horns are required by law. If people seem to honk everywhere someone goes, perhaps they should consider maybe they are the problem.
@@daleesful This is the first time I've heard him in one of these crash compilations. I usually hear DarkFluff (often) or r/mr redder (rarely), but I was very excited to hear MrBallen!! Consistent high quality with no annoying repeats. In fact, I have only ever heard two of the stories he's told by ANYONE EVER! Moreover, those two were done better by him ;-D
2:59.... but there is also a yield sign.... so wouldnt the cammer be at fault if they hit the car in front... if the light is green and there is a yield sign I would also still yield
The light is green for different directions. A separated lane that has its own yield sign is bearing all the responsibility for that particular right turn lane. It makes sense that when they have green for straight forward, there will be less chances for cars coming across, but that should not be a factor in checking the road you enter. Again, you can check faster and not stop, a yield sign doesn't imply to come to a complete stop, but not all drivers are alike. If you are better than others, that also mean you can anticipate slower/hesitant driver's moves and this instance would have been no issue for a good driver.
3:06 regardless if you stopped in time; you were obviously NOT paying attention. It was very evident from YOUR video that traffic was breaking i.e. slowing down. You slammed on your brakes; so, guess what?? So is everyone behind you.
0:14 - Brakes? What brakes? No one cuts me off. 1:06 - Pretty good evasive action and maneuvering into the driveway instead of driving into the curb. 8:02 - And rather than anticipating that very obvious action and slow down, you decided to floor it.
what does the dash cam position have to do with anything? If it was on the passenger side of your windsheild, it shouldn't impede the ability to see out of the left side
OP is referring to the cop not paying attention to what transpired behind him/her but honestly it’s not a violation. No contact was made. Typical Subaru driver.
@2:51 maybe because they do not have the right of way and have to yield, cue the YIELD sign. granted you may not have seen anything that might have been a hazard but it doesnt mean they will just act you and fly past the sign
A can of lysol can definitely stop your brake pedal from coming down, so if she had said can of lysol, and said can could fit under her brake pedal...I'd give her that. She would still be completely at fault but I would better about it.
90% of these videos = "I speed, drive poorly, have zero defensive driving skills and my ego says I am always right.....but other drivers are the problem"
6:15 - pickup driver is NOT "an idiot", he's adjusting to an instantaneous situation while you have the luxury of 20/20 hindsight, also, and more importantly, he was going to hit that car even if he hadn't veered right.
0:10 stop telling people to pull over if there is no damage. Be pissed at your own accord and stop trying to have a reason to yell at someone because you don't drive defensively either. You should have slowed down.
1:31 - In my state, that one driver wouldn't need to beat the light since she was already in the intersection before the light turned red. I don't know about the state where this takes place in though.
4:05 Did you know, three U.S. state capitals have the word city in the name? Only one state capital has the name of the of the state in its capital name? That Panama isn't any of them?
The SUV even if turning on a red and failing to yield as they were supposed to should have turned into the right lane not the left lane. Totally the SUV's fault no matter what the insurance says. They are just doing what they are paid to do, not pay the full claim but looking for way out of paying. Fight that crap in court and sue for the cost of going to court too and hiring a lawyer because that a open and shut case!
@@TimHammett1964 I would like to see that court battle. Lawyer for Insurance: Do you know what defensive driving is? Cammer: Yes Lawyer: Why didn't you practice it? Cammer: No need to.

You'll be hurting and having problems from the discs for the rest of your life! Ride the ambulance, go to the ER! Surely you have medical payment in your insurance and the other driver has liability. This is the kind of wreck that buys lawyers BENTLEYS!
0:19 I’ve seen this clip in other channel lol, and my comment is that there’s no why that driver should pull over. Legends says they still telling him to pull over 🤣
@@bobroberts2371 if traffic behind you is so "bad" that even the slightest tap of your brakes results in a collision, then a van pulling out in front of you is the *least* of your worries.
4:55 "I had multiple herniated discs and whiplash from this accident but I'm glad I didn't have any bad injuries." Are you serious? Herniated discs aren't bad injuries?
Video #4 0:60 Grant - this is another one of those situations where the traffic in adjacent lanes are stopped at an intersection or driveway and every driver should slow and assume another driver may try to cut across. You put yourself in that situation even though the driver turning should not have attempted to complete their turn until they know for sure all traffic had stopped or it was clear to do so. BTW, all ABS systems are designed to help a driver steer while braking hard - not just those on a Subaru. ILR Car Control School
I have a question: Cammer says, "My dash cam is on the upper passenger side of my vehicle so I did not see the car until it popped out from behind the Durango." Are we to believe that he only looks at traffic by using his dash cam?
@@billprice1483 Nah, cammer is just trying to justify their delayed/over reaction. They think since the dash cam is a few inches to the right, it gives us a 1000x better view then they had further to the left.
Let the guy be proud of his Subaru and the ABS system it comes with. Drivers have enjoyed that system for the past 52 years, but there is a first for eveyone.
1:09 - I wouldn't admit this to a cop! Never admit your view could be obstructed by something on the windshield! It would have been there fault anyway! SAY NO To CUT-THROUGHS!
3:40 - Although legally the other car is at fault, I hope someone tells wife not to brake so quickly and harshly, unless she brakes hard several times in quick succession, making the car bounce from front to end, so people behind her will see she had to brake hard!
#1 if you see someone pulling out in front of you (yes they technically should have waited) wouldn't you think to use your brakes instead of continuing the same speed just to show them they are wrong? Defensive driving would have saved you from stupidly hitting those construction cone thingies..
@5:06 the first vid at 2:51 i thought it was just a one off, but after this video it does appear you have a following distance issue. it doesnt look like youre too close but judging by your reaction maybe you should double it
I think you're right. In both clips, Delphine had plenty of time to stop but waiting until the last moment to start braking. Either her reaction time is very slow and she needs to adjust for that, or she needs to pay better attention to what's in front of her.
It was probably the medical portion of the claim. There are so many fraudulent medical claims in traffic incidents that they have to push back or they'd go broke and none of us would have coverage.
0:49 BULL SH*T. Get a claim number from their insurance company, and tell them it's ILLEGAL to change lanes like their driver did. If there was a police report, have it amended to show the illegal lane change.
4:01 What the H are you doing driving around with Lysol cans rolling around in the footwell? 7:10 Nah, the black SUV that's a Chevy Trailblazer not a KIA..
The... continuous flow of cars passing by isn't a clue to the idiot regardless of the lights or laws... ? Duh? Then again as I'm typing I'm recalling the cars that intentionally blow right though the power loss signal lights the other day...
4:50 hopefully your lawyer sees this so he can inform you that: next time, don't use "no serious injuries" in a statement when you claim to have a serious injury. Also a damn shame those other 2 lanes were so full to the brim with cars.
Question: Is it illegal to drive uninsured in the US? Here in Ireland (and the UK) the police have ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras that can instantly tell them whether a car is insured, has road tax, has what's called an NCT (MoT in UK, basically a certificate of roadworthiness), etc. If you're missing any one of these you can get pulled.
yes it is illegal and funny part is our law enforcement has similar technology, but you still see mass amounts of vehicles on the road without current registration, or uninsured drivers.
#3 nah I would fight that, they are the ones that didn't stay in THEIR lane when turning. Even if they should have waited to turn, they could have easily stayed in the right most lane (their lane) and you were in YOUR lane (the left one). They are the ones that turned on red and made a wide turn.
I had a lady who ran a yield went across both lanes at speed and her insurance tried to make it 70/30 as she claimed i was speeding to beat the light YET someone submitted to our insurances and he was in my ass and his speed was 17 in 40 from the green light we JUST got. And they still tried to claim this ... nope my insurance said it 100% her fault she never slowed nor stayed in her lane we can take this to court ... yeaaaa judge ruled 100% her
Then i had another one where a women ran a red light turning, claimed she had a protect green left but my dashcam proved i had the green and the lane next to me had the protected green light and it showed her speeding never stopping... her insurance tried the 50/50 i told them nope 100% or court not playing ..... again had to fight it even with proof and they lost again... judge wpuldnt even hear it after the video was played
@@daniellecoffren7528 Of course, when you have a dumbarse driver that doesn't know what "yield" means, they always try to blame others saying they are speeding (even if you aren't). That's usually what they always try to claim to take the heat off them. Doesn't even MATTER if you are speeding if you have the right of way, they have to wait. But yeah of course their insurance will do ANYTHING to not pay so that's why they made you take it to court. I am glad you didn't take the 30% and fought it.
"Should get a lawyer..." I would like to see that court battle. Lawyer for Insurance: Do you know what defensive driving is? Cammer: Yes Lawyer: Why didn't you practice it? Cammer: No need to.

4:27 - the correct way to react to that is to slow down and not get into a contest to see which one of you is the bigger idiot. Besides - you want the idiots in front of you. Do you really want to be depending on an idiot paying proper attention if you have to come to a stop in front of her?
0:10, could have slowed down, however you had the right of way and if that was the speed limit, you didn't do anything wrong. 0:30 staying slowed down blaring your horn after the evasive action is probably just as dangerous as blind changing lanes. It looks like you dropped 20mph on a highway, great way to get rear ended. 0:45 yeah insurance companies will do anything to claim that their driver wasn't entirly at fault. Cammer did nothing wrong. 1:16 what reason does the cop have to do anything??? Nothing happened. No accident happened, if one had happened, the cop would turn around and do something. 3:17 the van had the brakes on for a while. Cammer didn't slow down until they suddenly stopped short. Imo cammer caused the accident 4:33 jfc cammer is an idiot. Just let the dude merge and swallow your pride. As you said, heavy traffic, what's the big deal if one more person merges Infront of you. 5:54 why did you proceed to follow the reckless driver and do reckless speeds???
3:45 that dude walked near that car during the green lights if you zoom closely when you see the brake lights . that guy later tried to wander off at 3:54.

Cammer: No need to. I had a protective green arrow, it was my lane, I don't care that the other car was coming. I ignored the warnings from my wife because I'm in the right and it was my lane, I had to do nothing.
Lawyer: So despite getting warned twice, and seeing the car coming, you took no defensive maneuvers to avoid a collision, hitting your car and maybe hurting your passenger?
Cammer: But protected green arrow...other driver at fault...I don't have to do anything to avoid a collision, it's mah lane!!
If I'm on a jury hearing that, you damn right I'm finding partial fault for the collision on the cammer.
I am thinking they might have liability only, and their own insurance put the other driver at complete fault. But, yes, they should fight for the cammer considering they will have to partially pay.
5:30 you ain't gotta be "drunk" to drive a jeep like a jackass
Especially in Florida
4:02 Ah yes. The old "Lysol can under the brake pedal" defense.
0:10 if only you were paying attention and could have taken some sort of defensive action before the situation became 10x worse.
There's a center turn lane - it was reasonable for the cammer to assume that's where she was headed.
I never ever assume someone is pulling into the center lane. I also never pull out in front of someone with their turn signal on. Been burned before in both instances.
So many people drive under the assumption that other drivers will do the right thing. I was taught to always assume that they won't. Person making a left is already slowly pulling out? Then assume they'll cut you off and prepare to respond to that.
@@spamlessaccount Their pulling into a center turning lane is not a reasonable assumption - that lane is for turning, not traveling.
@@ARCNA442 In some states such as Pennsylvania, vehicles may also use this lane to end their left turn from a cross street before entering the traffic stream.
4:05 Doesn't everyone keep a can of Lysol rolling around their floorboard?
The Lysol can shouldn't be rolling around, of course. It should be fixed firmly in place beneath the brake pedal.

@4:50 classic example of using your horn instead of the brakes. Moy not have avoided the collision, but probably would have hit less hard.
He was on the brakes - you can hear the road noise drop in pitch.
@@spamlessaccount After watching it a couple times, I think you're right. But the amount of braking isn't consistent with a hard brake. I think he moved his foot over to the brake in a panic, but his foot mostly missed the pedal.
@@solandri69 Agreed, that was definitely not 'strong' or even 'medium' braking, but plenty of horn....
@@solandri69 he could have steered to the right easily, there was no other traffic there.
Horn should activate brakes. Would be less road rage if their vehicle stopped..
5:15 Driver fails to maintain a safe distance, especially due to weather conditions, and then blames the one driving in front for his own inabilities.
Road driving is a competition: To get there unscathed.
Many of these drivers are playing the wrong game.
Video #3 0:40 Jim D. - It's not about whether you know she wants your lane. You assume the other driver will screw it up. You could see from 0:36 that the other driver is starting to make an illegal turn (if it's your "protected" green). You had 4 seconds to process the information that the other driver doesn't know what they are doing. In this case you always assume they will screw up and be ready to take evasive action. It appears you didn't notice she was even turning as it sounds like your passenger had to warn you. ILR Car Control School

#17 idk why you stopped at the green light. The vehicle ahead of you left you plenty of room.
First Clip- Let me not slow down and get pissed and then try to road rage an old lady by yelling at her.
You're supposed to look if the road is clear before crossing. Otherwise, where are you going to end?
Let me not slow down for the green light because someone might cross a red.
Rules were made so that people can expect others to follow them. If not, then the rules have no meaning left to them.
@@icecubee55 But you can already see the other person is not following the rules. If someone's stopped in the middle of the intersection in front of you, running into them is *also* against the rules.
@@darrennew8211 In this case, the lady appeared to be behaving correctly pulling into the center turn lane.
@@spamlessaccount Yeah, I can see that. It's not clear to me on the video how far that dual-turn lane extends, and it was most definitely the woman's fault. But that doesn't give you the "right of way." No law says "X has the right of way over Y." Every law out there says "Y yields the right of way to X." But then X winds up yielding also to avoid collisions and such.
No defense driving whatsoever
Great video!
Can we make plateshaming a thing? Publishing the plate numbers on Twitter along with detailed descriptions of incidents so people know how terrible of a driver they are? Seems like the perfect accompaniment to videos like this.
1:25 to 1:30 is quite honestly the most satisfying outcome I have ever experienced on this channel... a person deliberately runs a light, has to stop for a couple vehicles first, then runs the light anyway only to STILL get plowed. I may have achieved climax if it actually rolled all the way over.
The ones where people get rear ended make my neck move on reflex 🤭
3:29 that Tahoe looks like it doesn’t have no engine. The driver had plenty of space/time to hit the brakes.
You mean the cammer right?

Why the facepalm? You're required to signal when parallel parking.
@@spamlessaccount you are also required to keep safe distance from the vehicle in front of you and take heed of brake lights. Also, what proof do you have that they were trying to parallel park?
#10 just before the 4:00 mark is very similar to the near miss I had the other night on my way to work. As I approached the light at the intersection on the highway off ramp to turn left I stopped for a moment while the light changed for me and just as I started to go someone dressed completely in black on a bicycle with no lights rode across the sidewalk through a red light right in front of me and completely jump scared me, I still don’t know how I didn’t hit them it was that close, so scary!
Protected green arrow means the white truck must have had a red.
I don't know about your state, but in Georgia, right on red MUST yield to ALL other traffic before proceeding.
People in the states be driving like we have universal health care
6:01 ah good old Red Deer Alberta, the place where people play bumper cars with real cars lol.
the butt hurt edition. having to use brakes unexpectedly or make extra steering wheel inputs. life is so hard
This edition? EVERY edition!!
If someone intentionally impedes my right of way forcing me to brake, they're absolutely getting the horn. That is a hazard, and the very reason horns are required by law. If people seem to honk everywhere someone goes, perhaps they should consider maybe they are the problem.

What horrible accident avoidance and an overly dramatic reaction from the man in the first clip.
2:59.... but there is also a yield sign.... so wouldnt the cammer be at fault if they hit the car in front... if the light is green and there is a yield sign I would also still yield
The light is green for different directions. A separated lane that has its own yield sign is bearing all the responsibility for that particular right turn lane. It makes sense that when they have green for straight forward, there will be less chances for cars coming across, but that should not be a factor in checking the road you enter. Again, you can check faster and not stop, a yield sign doesn't imply to come to a complete stop, but not all drivers are alike. If you are better than others, that also mean you can anticipate slower/hesitant driver's moves and this instance would have been no issue for a good driver.
3:06 regardless if you stopped in time; you were obviously NOT paying attention. It was very evident from YOUR video that traffic was breaking i.e. slowing down. You slammed on your brakes; so, guess what?? So is everyone behind you.
Who puts a Lysol can under their brake pedal?

People who hold the horn for 30 seconds after the incident has passed are basically asking for a road rage incident. Stupid.
0:14 - Brakes? What brakes? No one cuts me off.
1:06 - Pretty good evasive action and maneuvering into the driveway instead of driving into the curb.
8:02 - And rather than anticipating that very obvious action and slow down, you decided to floor it.
I have a theory if you drive a truck I think you had to give up all your brain cells
1:14 And you really expect anyone on the road ahead to know what just happened to you?
what does the dash cam position have to do with anything? If it was on the passenger side of your windsheild, it shouldn't impede the ability to see out of the left side
@@robertclarke4366 She's commenting on the angle of the view - the camera could see the situation sooner than the driver.
@@spamlessaccount yeah, no, the angle of the camera isn't THAT far off. Cammer just wanted to make an excuse of why they overreacted.

OP is referring to the cop not paying attention to what transpired behind him/her but honestly it’s not a violation. No contact was made. Typical Subaru driver.
@2:51 maybe because they do not have the right of way and have to yield, cue the YIELD sign. granted you may not have seen anything that might have been a hazard but it doesnt mean they will just act you and fly past the sign
There was nothing to yield for.
Americans are used to stop signs, so they stop on all signs.
6:04 @17 THANK YOU for keeping the audio! 🤣
#3 - Her insurance is wrong. The cammer had a protected left turn. The other car has to yield, plus they didnt even stop!!!!
A can of lysol can definitely stop your brake pedal from coming down, so if she had said can of lysol, and said can could fit under her brake pedal...I'd give her that. She would still be completely at fault but I would better about it.
I’m truly wondering if people know the phrase “defensive driving” and what it actually means….
They act like it is a weakness to give way or swerve to avoid accident and injury.
Poor Duckie🐤 rolled around and hit its head, ever heard of adhesive tape?
90% of these videos = "I speed, drive poorly, have zero defensive driving skills and my ego says I am always right.....but other drivers are the problem"
6:15 - pickup driver is NOT "an idiot", he's adjusting to an instantaneous situation while you have the luxury of 20/20 hindsight, also, and more importantly, he was going to hit that car even if he hadn't veered right.
0:10 stop telling people to pull over if there is no damage. Be pissed at your own accord and stop trying to have a reason to yell at someone because you don't drive defensively either. You should have slowed down.
It should be a felony with mandatory jail time for driving without insurance.
1:31 - In my state, that one driver wouldn't need to beat the light since she was already in the intersection before the light turned red.

Well, that the result of KIA stealing anything they can from absolutely any brand.
0:34 I'd demand an explanation from that insurance company how you're supposed to be a mind reader, and where that's stated in the policies.
it is the fact that his wife or whoever said carefull twice and he did not heed it at all and just kept turning
They probably watched the dashcam video and hear his wife warning him twice. Affectivity screwing him over
and as the cammer had a protected arrow he has to do shit ^^ He can turn without yielding to anyone.
The SUV even if turning on a red and failing to yield as they were supposed to should have turned into the right lane not the left lane. Totally the SUV's fault no matter what the insurance says. They are just doing what they are paid to do, not pay the full claim but looking for way out of paying. Fight that crap in court and sue for the cost of going to court too and hiring a lawyer because that a open and shut case!

Video #4 0:60 Grant - this is another one of those situations where the traffic in adjacent lanes are stopped at an intersection or driveway and every driver should slow and assume another driver may try to cut across. You put yourself in that situation even though the driver turning should not have attempted to complete their turn until they know for sure all traffic had stopped or it was clear to do so.

0:60, there's a time stamp you don't see often...
I have a question: Cammer says, "My dash cam is on the upper passenger side of my vehicle so I did not see the car until it popped out from behind the Durango." Are we to believe that he only looks at traffic by using his dash cam?
@@billprice1483 Nah, cammer is just trying to justify their delayed/over reaction. They think since the dash cam is a few inches to the right, it gives us a 1000x better view then they had further to the left.

3:40 - Although legally the other car is at fault, I hope someone tells wife not to brake so quickly and harshly, unless she brakes hard several times in quick succession, making the car bounce from front to end, so people behind her will see she had to brake hard!
#1 if you see someone pulling out in front of you (yes they technically should have waited) wouldn't you think to use your brakes instead of continuing the same speed just to show them they are wrong? Defensive driving would have saved you from stupidly hitting those construction cone thingies..
@5:06 the first vid at 2:51 i thought it was just a one off, but after this video it does appear you have a following distance issue. it doesnt look like youre too close but judging by your reaction maybe you should double it
I think you're right. In both clips, Delphine had plenty of time to stop but waiting until the last moment to start braking. Either her reaction time is very slow and she needs to adjust for that, or she needs to pay better attention to what's in front of her.
#17 Why did you stop at the green light???
Traffic was slowing on the other side of the light, and he was afraid of getting caught in the intersection.
5:00 Why would it take a year to settle on such an obvious fault?
It was probably the medical portion of the claim. There are so many fraudulent medical claims in traffic incidents that they have to push back or they'd go broke and none of us would have coverage.
Great episode MegaDrivingSchool 👌🏻❗️❗️❗️
1:14 how was the cop going to see them almost crashing like he's going to be looking behind him at all times
#20 was that Mr. Ballen I heard? Lol
0:49 BULL SH*T. Get a claim number from their insurance company, and tell them it's ILLEGAL to change lanes like their driver did. If there was a police report, have it amended to show the illegal lane change.

The... continuous flow of cars passing by isn't a clue to the idiot regardless of the lights or laws... ? Duh?
Then again as I'm typing I'm recalling the cars that intentionally blow right though the power loss signal lights the other day...
4:50 hopefully your lawyer sees this so he can inform you that: next time, don't use "no serious injuries" in a statement when you claim to have a serious injury. Also a damn shame those other 2 lanes were so full to the brim with cars.
“Luckily I was paying attention…” meaning I just happened to be not texting, etc., etc..
Question: Is it illegal to drive uninsured in the US? Here in Ireland (and the UK) the police have ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras that can instantly tell them whether a car is insured, has road tax, has what's called an NCT (MoT in UK, basically a certificate of roadworthiness), etc. If you're missing any one of these you can get pulled.
yes it is illegal and funny part is our law enforcement has similar technology, but you still see mass amounts of vehicles on the road without current registration, or uninsured drivers.
Many things are illegal, but some are aspiring to that status. Haven't you watched any american movies?!?

#3 nah I would fight that, they are the ones that didn't stay in THEIR lane when turning. Even if they should have waited to turn, they could have easily stayed in the right most lane (their lane) and you were in YOUR lane (the left one). They are the ones that turned on red and made a wide turn.
I had a lady who ran a yield went across both lanes at speed and her insurance tried to make it 70/30 as she claimed i was speeding to beat the light YET someone submitted to our insurances and he was in my ass and his speed was 17 in 40 from the green light we JUST got. And they still tried to claim this ... nope my insurance said it 100% her fault she never slowed nor stayed in her lane we can take this to court ... yeaaaa judge ruled 100% her
Then i had another one where a women ran a red light turning, claimed she had a protect green left but my dashcam proved i had the green and the lane next to me had the protected green light and it showed her speeding never stopping... her insurance tried the 50/50 i told them nope 100% or court not playing ..... again had to fight it even with proof and they lost again... judge wpuldnt even hear it after the video was played
@@daniellecoffren7528 Of course, when you have a dumbarse driver that doesn't know what "yield" means, they always try to blame others saying they are speeding (even if you aren't).
