I nearly had a heart attack at 5:34 because I drive a Hyundai i30 in that colour with a pretty similar numberplate. Thought I had maybe blocked a near crash out of my mind :v:
What was even going on at 4:05? There was something flying in the air and somehow the street light broke??
Aussies are the best to listen to for swearing, but why the hell was there so many people driving on the wrong side, I sorta want to pray for dumb tourists or something.
3:59 - 'what the fuuuuck???'
Just the way he said that was hilarious
I think the driver at the 1:45 one was actually Canadian, that was a much nicer thing to yell than I would have. After all, 'you fucking idiot' are the first three words that every Australian baby learns.

Reminds me that I need to invest in a dash cam
Why are so many people spinning out when they aren't even going fast and the roads barely look wet?
yew fukkstik on a fukken bend ( roads straight lol )
[QUOTE=abcpea;51986300]yew fukkstik on a fukken bend ( roads straight lol )[/QUOTE]
You're telling me you couldn't see the bend ahead of them?
Also, look at the lines. It's clearly a no overtaking zone.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;51986259]Why are so many people spinning out when they aren't even going fast and the roads barely look wet?[/QUOTE]
probably bald as fuck tires
[QUOTE=abcpea;51986300]yew fukkstik on a fukken bend ( roads straight lol )[/QUOTE]
But there was a corner? It happened just before the corner, and it was clearly a no passing zone.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;51986259]Why are so many people spinning out when they aren't even going fast and the roads barely look wet?[/QUOTE]
As said above, bald tyres. Most states don't have vehicle inspections.
6:12 is exactly why you need a secondary chain attached to a trailer and why it should have minimal slack. that could've been a shitty situation
2:09 is East Maitland.

looks like this truck broadsided the lightpost, you can see once the truck is away from it that the actual base is here, the whole thing had already been kinked and knocked down, the base is right there-

so, it fell the better part of a meter before 'landing' upright, and the jostle from that dislodged the lamp on the left of the pole, thus why you see that come down before the pole slowly tips over

Lot of the time it's because they're trying to do mad sick skids
There are two roundabouts near my university that are each dual-lane, but unlike most other roundabouts, traffic on the left-most lane of an entrance on each roundabout are allowed to turn left and go straight, but they can also turn right (the inner-left lane is forced to turn right, unlike on most other roundabouts where they can go straight, and the left-most lane can't turn right). They're accidents waiting to happen, with careless drivers in the inner-right lanes who do not turn right.
Also reminds me that I almost ran over two international students who decided to walk across the exit of one of those (large, and rather fast) roundabouts where there was no street crossing, and they were too busy talking to each other (or simply didn't care) to look for oncoming traffic.
After having my accident a few days ago then watching this has finally motivated me to get a dashcam.
I like how even after the last one pulled that shit, the driver still asked if he was alright.

You a fellow Hornsby resident then? That intersection is so fucking dangerous. My mother-in-law got sideswiped there in exactly the same situation as the video, except the person turning didn't stop. Had her car written off and was in hospital for chest injuries.
At 2:00 there's a white Skyline R34 GT-R with Nismo Z-Tune exterior making a super risky pass.
If I had a car like that I would be scared to even drive it out of the driveway. I can't believe that the driver had the balls to such a stupid thing.
This car is just becoming more and more expensive and rare.

That car has not been cheap.

If he's actually bragging about how he's lost 12 points from his license, enough to have it suspended, he seriously shouldn't own that car
Fun fact: If he gets arrested for enough reckless / dangerous driving offences, the police can opt to have his car destroyed since he clearly doesn't care about fines
The first clip was filmed in my university's carpark. Lately there have been a lot of clueless drivers backing into/scraping other cars and then driving off without any decency of leaving a note.

I was hoping that they would have crashed, because I'm sick of seeing people thinking that they are king shit and driving extremely dangerously. Need something dire to happen to snap them back into reality.

Oh, that is hornsby? Fuck, what a wild guess. I went there once 4 years ago. It's right next to the train station yeah?
I look forward to this every month.

Doesn't matter how much tread your tires have when you've got north of 300 foot pounds of torque on hand. Piss easy to spin 'em new or bald.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;51986259]Why are so many people spinning out when they aren't even going fast and the roads barely look wet?[/QUOTE]
Lots of torque, RWD, inexperience.
Wish it wouldnt be near inpossible to move to australia, i would love to work there and stay, its my better type of scenery for 18 wheeler driving.
Why do so many Australians have dashcams?

Also I see the maneuver at ~3:56 all the time on the NJ parkway :v:
