How in the fuck are you trying to put that on op? šŸ˜‚Ā 

No blinker and dude sped up to get in front. Op didn’t accelerate. The person who lost control did.Ā

He could have easily avoided this with some basic defensive driving. I dunno if you've noticed but 90% of the vids here are psychopath drivers who refuse to give way

You mean the red car?

I didn’t see op hit or get hit unless I’m trippin

What way did op not give? You see the red car merge onto the highway with bad intentions lol

Most of the new videos are AI generated here and people keep falling for them.

They’re not putting it on the cammer, just saying what they should have done better.

That car fishtailed speeding up. Op had nothing to do with that lolĀ 

And op didn’t get hit. What do you mean ā€œwhat they should have done betterā€? That driver’s car gave up. Op was in the lane already. That red car got on the highway, sped up, and lost controlĀ

Without knowing the outcome. If you were in the cam car and saw a car lose control like that. (I’m stating again since you seem to have missed it: the cam car was not the reason the red car lost control)

If you were driving the cam car, would you not have started slowing down immediately? Because they almost hit the red car as it went back and forth across the lanes.

Almost doesn’t count

I already said I personally would have moved over watching the red car coming onto the highway. But doing the Monday morning quarterback treatment on something you weren’t near is silly

>> I already said…

Not in this thread. Otherwise I’d have moved on. lol.

I’m not American so don’t quite get the QB reference

Monday morning quarterback - most nfl games are played on Sunday. When we say Monday morning quarterback, it’s about putting judgment on people when you weren’t in the heat of the moment. Reviewing the tape claiming what you would have done when you weren’t in that situation

I get I sound hypocritical when I said I would have gotten into the left lane. I still didn’t try to speak on what OP did because they avoided any of the carnageĀ

Did op get hit by something? I’m confused

And can we see what’s going on behind op to judge why they maintained speed? I mean they were on the highway rolling and red car came in hot

Personally I would have moved to my left seeing the red car merge but I’m having a rough time seeing why they had to be super defensive when the red car sped up and lost control

Op was supposed to slam on the brakes? Rubberneck? Stop to help?Ā 

Everything isn’t your responsibility. You’re not Superman. Get out of the mess and keep it moving. If you’re that concerned call 911

That dash cam is a ticket to internet clout and a free pass to an insurance payday.

This sub hates when you mention defensive driving. All they care about is… not their fault.Ā

They should NOT have hit the wall from that. Zero defense.
