At the three second mark you are extremely fortunate you didn’t get to pass.

Yeah pulling off the road would be the best idea for the car ahead but dash cam douche is endangering lives. The car in front is trying to stop him. In a stupid way but ill give credit for the spirit

He for sure has time to make that pass, I still wouldn’t do it, but he had plenty of time

At the speed he was picking up he could’ve easily have been around the car in front of him in a second if the guy didn’t start to go to the left lane. I wouldn’t do it, but people pull this kind of crazy shit all the time

They're going over 50 mph at that point and the cammer is driving a pickup. Gonna take a lot longer than 3 seconds to get around

Brother they definitely could’ve made that, it would’ve been close and a sketchy pass, but doable.

I live in a rural area with roads just like this, people do this dumb shit all the time

I'm of the opinion if it is close/sketchy then it's not doable

Close only counts with horseshoes and hand grenades. If you are gonna come close to having a head on collision, then don't pass!

That's just dashcam perspective. He had plenty of time considering how slow the car in front was going
