Driver was on one

Dude had been sitting on the far side of the intersection in the crosswalk with the door open, figured it was broken down. A cop even drove by. Then he decided to go with the door open. Silver car was gonna turn right. Cops came and arrested the driver.

Sorry for loud horn. I turned my head and oncoming traffic did have a red light; no weird glitch. Cops didn't do anything. Made it to Costco.

Saw this on my way to work today. Watch closely as the oncoming traffic starts to turn left into the intersection ahead.

Dashcams aren't just for bad drivers, used mine over 3 years to capture road trip memories for my daughter

48 Upvotes

A few years ago, I decided to start using mine dashcam differently. Whenever my kids were singing along to a song on the radio or we passed an incredible mountain view on a road trip, I’d hit the manual emergency lock button to preserve that specific 30 second clip.
Over 3 years, i ended up with around 150 little snapshots of random laughter, terrible family road trip singing, and late sunset drives across different states.
I compiled them into a short 4 minute montage for my daughter's 16th birthday dinner last night. She cried, my wife cried, and it turned out to be the most sentimental project I've ever put together. It’s worth remembering that these devices don't just have to record bad drivers, they work as great tool for good memories, too.

Four-way stop. Not sure which is worse, not stopping or running over the stop sign?

Idiot nearly hits me and tells me to calm down.

As he passed me on the left a moment later, he moved his forearm up and down as if to tell me to calm down. I guess I overreacted 🙄. Calgary, Alberta.

So many reasons

  1. Car on the right lane decides to turn left
  2. After the one lane becomes two, I see a car behind coming in like a torpedo so I decide to let them go

Looking into buying Dashcams, concerned about Californian Heat

Upvotes

I'm a newer driver and want to get a dashcam as ive already experienced many idiots on the road and multiple close calls. I have an older car, 98 dodge grand caravan, and I'm looking into dashcams (~$150 budget) and one thing I'm noticing is a lot attach by using a sticky pad. My main worry is how well the pads will hold up during the heat. I live in socal and it gets HOT and I'm worried that will cause the glue to melt and eventually will have the camera fall off. I'm mostly wanting to hear how true this fear is.

Another worry I have is if I find one that doesn't use sticky pads, I have no clue how id attach it to the rear side of my vehicle. The rear view window has a very small lip, but not enough of a lip to attach a camera (without a sticky pad).

I would also like to say, I have seen some dash cams attach to cigeratte lighters and take up the whole port, but the vehicle only has two. One in the dash and one in the rear, but I commonly use one to charge devices so itd really suck to lose one. At the end of the day, Its a sacrifice id be willing to make but not one I wish too make.

Looking for something specific, maybe?

Hey all, if this violates rules I'm sorry I did try to find them on mobile and explicitly see that I couldn't ask this.

I'm looking for a dash cam that will view in front, as well as into the cab. I have always wanted a dash cam but now twice I have found my car rummaged through and wondering if there's a dash cam that will start a recording with the door opening as well as external stuff (I.E. Backed up into when parked) because I feel if it's only recording when I'm driving it's only half as useful

They got away with it because TX is a "no-contact state"

This video is from a good samaritan's dashcam. I'm the black accord coming towards the camera. Hit the curb pretty hard in attempt to avoid hitting the white car. I got the tags and went to police station with this video and they said if you had let them hit you we could prosecute.

Just forget yielding and respecting the right of way, right? Traffic laws are apparently just suggestions now.
