My personal close call dash cam videos

Yeah, you seem to be going fast on some of the urban streets.

Also, for number two. When turning left onto a four-lane road, you should stay in the left lane and signal into the right lane.

Many urban streets here in Phoenix have a speed limit of 45mph. People pull out in front of traffic all the time with the obvious expectation that it's ok to impede other vehicles so long as they can shave 10 seconds off of waiting for an opening or light to change.


To OP, 1st one didn't seem like a big deal. There are a lot of shitty drivers down here though.
 
The OP is a poor defensive driver, and the videos were a colossal waste of time.

That said, having a dash-cam is an excellent idea for any driver.
 
In this case, had there been a collision that would be irrelevant. He was already in the right lane and the individual in the left lane changed from the left lane to the right.

This, had OP not swerved to the right he would have been hit, it's the other person's responsibility to make sure the lane is clear before blasting through like that. The rest of the vids are, meh..
 
Lol Avril? :colbert:

Anyway, one dude posting a load of personal "close call" videos probably just shows you need to learn how to drive. I rarely ever have a close call.
 
This does look like everyday driving ... let us know when you got a crash!
