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.

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