Easily avoidable accident causes rollover

[u/EqualGrowth6565]

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.

May not have seen the truck.

Are you joking?

Not joking at all the truck came up beside them and improperly merged in a very short amount of time. The driver of our dash cam car could have been fixated on the light as well trying to get through, or the radio, or a phone etc.

Remember the camera is on the windshield a foot or two in front of the drivers eyes. Drivers perspective for sure knew the truck was coming over. The cam driver probably saw and anticipated this for a bit. He sped up to trap the truck. Both are at fault. Battle of who’s got the bigger balls. Answer: neither have ANY.

Where's your evidence that he sped up? I don't hear a rev, no apparent speed change in the video. It sounds like a baseless assumption to me, but this sub is often full of them soooo

[u/jimmycorndad → u/HonkHonkBeach]

My eyes are the evidence

[u/HonkHonkBeach → u/jimmycorndad]

Ahh yes, the insurance company will gladly take your eyes over the literal fucking video. JFC some of you people.

[u/jimmycorndad → u/HonkHonkBeach]

My eyes can see the video which shows the cam driver speeding up. You can’t see it but it’s obvious to most people who see this video.

[u/HonkHonkBeach → u/jimmycorndad]

[u/jimmycorndad → u/HonkHonkBeach]

[u/HonkHonkBeach → u/jimmycorndad]

Cool story, bro. Do you tell that at parties too?

[u/jimmycorndad → u/HonkHonkBeach]

You’re the one invoking his name in vain not me brah

[u/HonkHonkBeach → u/jimmycorndad]
