As much as I don't like victim blaming, a lot of accidents look like they could be avoided if the person recording paid attention to other cars and were prepared for everyone else to do something dumb. 0:30 for example

With the exception of weather-related incidents, the accident or conflict is often exacerbated by the person recording. Fuck man, some people I see are legitimately terrifyingly crazy, I don't want to put myself in their sights.

Fuck man, some people I see are legitimately terrifyingly crazy, I don't want to put myself in their sights.[/QUOTE] The number one rule I follow while driving is to always assume everyone else is a fuckwit that is going to do something dumb and I'd hope other drivers follow the same rule. That car that's to my left at a roundabout that's supposed to give way to me? I'm gonna slow down a little bit because I'm gonna assume he's going to go anyway. That car trying to turn from a side road to the road I'm on? Keep an eye on him because I'm assuming he'll do something stupid. Green light? Look both left and right before going because some dumbfuck might go on the red.
Some of them get tilted over absolutely nothing [editline]20th February 2017[/editline] Like the one with the ladder guy was nowhere near it and he was lit as fuck
[QUOTE=redBadger;51847887]Some of them get tilted over absolutely nothing [editline]20th February 2017[/editline] Like the one with the ladder guy was nowhere near it and he was lit as fuck[/QUOTE] Because he could've been near it. I'd be fucking pissed off aswell if there was a chance I'd get into an accident because some retard didn't secure their load.
It appears pickup drivers in Australia are just as bad as the ones in America :v:
wow, brave man at 2:53 doing that right in front of a tank
I submitted a clip for their facebook page but they told me it wasn't good enough and didn't put it up at all :(
I thought the dude at 4:30 was dancing to the music in the car.

8 seconds in and I'm losing my shit

Always assume the other drivers around you are fuckheads until they prove otherwise.
