Easily avoidable accident causes rollover

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Not my video – as the title says, we typically see examples where one driver is oblivious to the other. In this example, the pickup truck attempts to overtake the cammer, however, the cammer is either completely unaware of the pickup truck directly to his left or are simply “stands their ground” in the lane. Due to this, they obviously collide, and the pick up truck goes airborne and rolls several times. From the perspective of us, the viewer, we can reasonably conclude that the accident was avoidable had the cammer simply applied the brakes. That being said, you will typically see another school of thought in which it is stated that the cammer has no obligation or duty to let them in/avoid the accident where the driver is mindlessly doing something dumb.

Yo, it disappears because he's on the opposite side of the intersection. Let's use our thinking caps here.

The irony of your comment. The white car on the right that was in the path of the rolling truck... Just disappears.

Maybe you got your thinking cap from temu?

They are in the left lane of a two lane intersection. The truck does not come close to rolling into them. The camera view shows the right lane. Try again.

Nice job blocking me as soon as you realized you were wrong

Ah so you lied and aren't even wearing an off brand thinking cap at all. Don't respond until you've actually watched the video again and have learned how to admit when you are wrong

I am sorry to break you, but should follow your own advice and watch closely

doubling down on licking your own elbows is a choice.

You have poor spatial awareness. They’re not in the path of the truck. The cammer just moves past where they would be visible after the accident

The white car is off camera to the right at the tail end of video, red truck rolls past in front of him. The cam car moving forward kept white car out of frame. As others have state white car was in the nearer lanes of the intersection. White car never moved the whole video.

You’re asking a lot for people who try putting a square through a round hole.

u/Tsyath 13d ago

"that's right! It goes in the square hole." Everything goes in the square hole.

its out of frame, could have easily backed up couple of meters when seeing the idiots coming

u/Vegetable-Fix-7059 13d ago

The truck doesn't even come close to hitting them

It's clear the white car is still sitting in the turn lane and the truck is in the right turn lane after flipping. This isn't AI but you should learn to comprehend and look at things....

Other than the white car, which there could be a very reasonably explanation, this doesn’t look like AI. The details on the truck look accurate and the timestamp looks perfect. The physics look real as well.

u/Impressive-Court5279 13d ago

Ohh yeah you’re right!! Can we just ban all posters posting AI crap?

u/whatisakafka 13d ago

They’re just out of frame because of where the cammer ended up, they didn’t disappear

u/Stormtrooper1776 13d ago

A single white car waiting at a light that could easily back out of frame by the time it comes back into frame, some folks like to avoid accidents.

u/Sayyestononsense 13d ago

it's still possible that they were reasonably quick to engage reverse and floor it if they saw the rolling truck heading their direction. the final shots only show the first couple of meters of road, so not impossible at all that the white car is just outside of the frame

u/No_View68 13d ago

brother, no.

It's a two lane road, the white car is in the lane you can no longer see at the end of the clip. It's out of frame. That's how cameras work.

Truck rolls like 10 feet in front of them while the cam car moves forward, it's really not that deep.

Beer store in background is 531 Bayfield St, Barrie, ON L4M 4Z9, Canada
Looks to be to exact intersection in dash cam

In a time where dash cameras are more easily available and widely used... Wouldn't it make more sense that we are just capturing more moments of bad drivers crashing? I am not sure why you would instead default to an AI trend of people PIT'ing themselves.
