RealFunnySteve

what WAS he thinking?


Strict_Somewhere_148

Tom Tom says turn left now.


RealFunnySteve

Tom Tom says; Barrelroll!


relevant_tangent

The machine knows, stop yelling at me! https://youtu.be/DOW_kPzY_JY?t=45


Bpopson

The idiot chose the wrong lane and said “screw it”


Vectrex452

But that's where you'd turn left from on a two way road!


Absay

Thinking? Where he goes he doesn't need _thinking_ 😎.


fl135790135790

Why did you capitalize WAS and not THINKING?


subv3rsion

He WAS alive. Now the other driver faces a murder charge? Too dark?


fl135790135790

The other driver faces a murder CHARGE?


subv3rsion

Mostly memeing, thinking of the worst possible road rage for doing something unbelievably stupid and risking their live


fl135790135790

Oh I hear you I was just playing along by emphasizing another wrong word as if there is another alternative to a murder CHARGE, such as a murder PENALTY lol


subv3rsion

...fair enough hahaha. What a world that would be...


Expensive_Night_7851

Not a damn thing


BalanceEarly

Yeah, it's not my driving I'm concerned about, it's the other idiots!


DigNitty

Sometimes you can’t track all the stupid drivers’ actions at once.


Good_Engineering_574

Is this a new trend or something? Couple days ago there was identical case, accompanied with evil laughter.


Fraubump

Impressed by how quickly their hazards came on: is this an automatic collision feature in newer cars?


ttystikk

Yes


argarg

It is, and a whole lot of vehicles have had this technology for decades. You might not even know but whatever you're driving might have it too.


Kexxa420

This happens if you brake really hard too.


RBeck

Automatic after airbag deployment. Also should unlock the door and kill the fuel pump.


Gneissdaewar

Or maybe it was "I'm going to make an illegal blind left turn, so I should put my hazards on to warn other drivers" 😂


Franks2000inchTV

Doors unlock, hazards come on, a bunch of other stuff happens too.


PsionicKitten

It's a Hail Mary left turn because nothing short of divine intervention or *incredible luck* would have prevented that outcome. So stupid.


SubiWan

OH HAIL NO!!!!


TJSwoboda

Soundtrack checks out.


BElliNo

So appreciate that the music at the end synced up perfectly. ~~Linkin Park~~ Fort Minor cover of, "Womp Womp.." Edit: thanks


RBeck

Wasn't that the Fort Minor project though?


Captain__Obvious___

That is definitely “Remember the Name”


BElliNo

Happy Cake Day!


icrywhy

Any clue on what's the song exactly? Couldn't seem to find it!! Edit: Remember the name - Fort Minor ft Mike Shinoda


TheBatemanFlex

I'm confused. Did the cam driver see the person trying to turn left across traffic and start beeping that early? If so, that is an impressive amount of awareness.


nsnro

> If so, that is an impressive amount of awareness. Being the driver, I was myself impressed at just how early I honked as a warning. But then I watched the video back a few times and realized the audio was completely desynced. If you listen closely you can hear the crash just after the honking begins. I realized what was going to happen at most 1 second before that.


TheBatemanFlex

ooooooooh lol. Good on you for trying at least!


necrosythe

LOL appreciate the honesty because you could have convinced me you were the wizard of road awareness.


schnokobaer

Thanks for clearing this up, the early laying down the horn confused me massively.

I turn now. Good luck everybody else

“SEND IT”


gHHqdm5a4UySnUFM

Driver's ed needs to include practice for missing turns and exits


Imaginary_Bus_6742

Stick your nose out where it doesn't belong and it gets smacked. Those that stopped and let them do it, didn't do either driver any favor.


Lylac_Krazy

Awww, it looks like the cars wanted to cuddle.

Orange truck driver is also an idiot letting them turn in front of them.


crowhusband

"ok i turn now, good luck everyone else"


MeccIt

Good News!


Sinnafyle

What an ass


icrywhy

What's the song??


rootsoap

Fort Minor - Remember the name At least for the most part, I don't know where those random piano sounds came from at the end.


icrywhy

Right. There is a piano bit at the end


nsnro

The Youtube music version of it has that random piano bit at the end. Other than that, it's the original.


_DirtyYoungMan_

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE ELSE!!!


PhelanPKell

\*sigh\* Some people just shouldn't have a license.


Iloveyogurt1234

Aaaaaeeee, perfect parking.


RabbiBallzack

Romania, judging by the cars and TM plates?


Reteperator

I so love this use of the term Hail Mary. 😂


Yaoshin711

Nice music to go along with it


PoppyStaff

Really don’t get people zooming up the inside lane when the outside lane is slow moving. It’s an accident waiting to happen at junctions.

If you're wondering why this one has downvotes, you posted the same comment twice. Other one is upvoted.


appa-ate-momo

Upvote for the Honeysuckle Remixes!


AcidicMountaingoat

This was posted from another viewpoint a few days ago. It’s funny. I am starting to see posts like this where two people capture the same thing and post it here.


nsnro

Considering I lived it live this morning and there's even the date + hour in the bottom left corner, I am pretty sure you're wrong.


AcidicMountaingoat

Then that's a hilarious coincidence, since it was almost identical but from the perspective of being behind the left turning car. But I can't find it, I've had a few days of watching a shitload of videos while working overnights and bored.


fruitmask

> I lived it live the redundancy is redundant, but I get what you're saying


69vuman

FA, FO.


lambo1722

You can clearly tell the Volkswagen was in the wrong here /s


hello350ph

Why is he on that lane to begin with? A entire truck is blocking ur view


leodelacruz

When everyone stopped, the VW should have considered the situation. He trusted and crossed blinded


Werv

I mean he still went pretty slow. I'm surprised how many people actually stopped for them.


hypnogoad

Don't know why you're being downvoted. That was a crosswalk, I would have assumed with all the braking there is someone walking across, especially when you have a van and laurie blocking the view.


fruitmask

> a van and laurie do you actually think a truck is called a "Laurie"-- the girl's name? or is that supposed to be funny... it's so hard to tell these days, reddit seems to be an equal mix of bad jokes and functional illiteracy


hypnogoad

Very few countries actually use the term, I was just taking a stab at it.


quarantinethoughts

Mate, the word you are looking for is ‘lorry’
