It's amazing that all dashcam compilations basically consist of people sending in clips of other people fucking it up and then still end up at at least 30% of being entirely avoidable situations if the driver with the camera just wasn't also hugely carbrained. Most common issue seems to be some sort of my right of way shall not be infringed, my steel steed shall make it so or figuring looking at the road and / or being able to stop your car within the distance you can see is for chumps.

I'll go through it clip by clip for Idiots in Cars Nr. 367, posted a day ago at time of writing. To be clear, I'm not saying it's the dashcam drivers fault primarily in the examples down below but isn't this supposed to showcase other people fucking it up entirely?

At 00:32 you can clearly see the red car, cutting across the lines, no indicator ain't exactly on a vector for the right lane, time to stay the course and not brake

At 01:36 you can quite clearly see, in broad daylight, the bump ahead that the person wrecks on and that's with the shitty dashcam quality

01:59 I don't even think I have to point out how fucking carbrained it is to swerve blindly into the opposing lane of traffic because you couldn't be bothered to just brake a bit and wait all of 3 seconds

At 04:13 you can clearly see the red car from the right moving with literally no possible place to go instead of right infront of the driver, time to acclerate straight at it (HOOOOOOOOONK)

At 08:14 like the person in the white SUV is an asshole but like what did you think would happen here when they overtook you on the blocked lane?
