BEST OF THE MONTH (SEPTEMBER) | UK Car Crashes Compilation | Idiots In Cars 1 Hour (w/ Commentary)

[@hozzer68]

Here’s the best tip for anyone who witnesses a really bad accident in front of them. If you can safely go beyond the accidents to stop and assist, do so by quite a bit because if the road becomes blocked or shut by emergency services, once your help is no longer required you will be able to leave the scene unhindered. You’re welcome, from an ex Police employee.

[@Cavalier_Steve]

Thank you 😊

[@El_Gormo]

No, you’re welcome

[@jonsmith1162]

Also, please don't move bits of the accident to the side of the road. If there's collision investigation work to be done then everything needs to remain in situ.

[@CraigNiel]

@Red eyed Wolf The assist was in reference to the vehicles involved in the accident, you know, in case anyone is injured, not assist the police. You don't read so good do you?

[@chrisardern4594]

And its probably best that you did stop to render assistance bc if you wait for plod to turn up at a rtc you would be able to draw your pension.

13:00 - Never correct them, or tell them you have it on camera. Let them give a false statement to the insurance company and police. Then they get done for that as well as dangerous driving. Glad everyone was okay!

[@rabidblackable]

My advice as well - let them dig a hole so deep that they can't see the sky. I also have voice recorder app ready on my phone for such an occasion too.

[@Cheepchipsable]

Don't bother arguing, just keep it civil and tell them insurance will sort it out.

[@TheEulerID]

@Bootneck777 Voice recordings are permissible as evidence in court. What the hell makes you claim they are not? Also, what is cowardly about it, or have you been in similar circumstances and had something to hide?

[@TheEulerID]

@Bootneck777 Speaking as the owner of a dashcam, who installed it because he wanted evidence of any incident, just in case, then your rather sweeping generalisation is wide of the mark. Most people I know with dashcams have them for the same reason I do. I've no doubt there are a few exceptions. I also leave all the stats on too, like speed, location and audio as I don't think I have anything to hide.

[@TheEulerID]

​@Bootneck777 Who are you that assumes I don't drive competently (I've driven accident free for 38 years), nor do I text on the phone. I have a dashcam for those others that do just such things and seek to blame others. There are plenty of examples to be found. There of cash for crash events when it's just one word against another. If you think that you will never be involved with an accident as you know how to avoid them all, then think again. There are always circumstances that can happen outside your control, or you could be subject to malicious activities. Even if your car is parked up, then it can be hit and modern dashcams often have sentry mode when parked up.

[@SiCrewe]

Just never, ever, ever, allow yourself to be alongside another vehicle on a roundabout. Don't catch up to another car and put yourself alongside them and if another car pulls alongside you ease off the gas to let them get ahead of you. It's just not worth the risk that the other driver is going to do something dumb and collect you in the process.

[@charliehazelmere]

The clip with the small child appearing in the road is terrifying, so many what if? situations from that. If they had been driving faster or just not seen the child in time doesn’t bear thinking about and something that would haunt you forever.

[@3scarybunnies211]

I saved a kid from running into traffic once - and saved an innocent driver from a lifetime of trauma. My husband and I were sitting at a busy intersection in Sydney when I noticed a toddler running toward the busy road. I looked back expecting the see a parent not far behind but there was no one. I immediately jumped out of the car and sprinted toward the kid. I got to him as he was running between 2 parked cars on the busy road, and nearly dislocated his shoulder when I yanked him off the road. By the time I got him, he was about to step out from the parked cars - maybe 2 steps from being killed. His mum was sitting in the huge yard of a home on the corner talking to a friend. The open gate was at the back end of the property, meaning that she was not paying attention to the kid for at least 3-5 minutes. She only noticed the kid was gone when she heard him screaming because I had hurt his shoulder. She also did not thank me - but I assumed she was in shock. The distance to the car's tyre when I got the kid is seared into my memory.

[@TheEulerID]

It's why you should always drive at a speed which allows you to stop in the distance you can see to be clear. The driver was the real hero there doing exactly that, albeit I might not have sounded the horn as it might have frightened the toddler into something even more dangerous.

Hi all. I WAS THE DRIVER IN CLIP 23. I was the lady. We were hit by a 14 seater mini bus from a Christian Missionary. The 10 children on board weren't wearing seatbelts. I was not 'yakking on the phone'. The missing part of the video was an ex Army guy on the hard shoulder helped us, he'd called the police with my narration. My mum has no hip bones. My door wouldn't open, we were trapped in the car. Before i passed out the emergency services needed to know mums bones, allergies and dialysis situation. Mum was in and out of consciousness with a broken wrist. My knees and ankles were shot too. We were both cut out of the vehicle. The driver had convinced the car infront that i had hit him. The traffic police thought the same until 5 minutes later, motorway cctv called them to confirm it was not my fault. Scary part was only 15ft stretch of motorway was being recorded by cctv that day. This went to court 3 times because he appealed stating it was racism from the police officer who he accused of tampering with the motorway recording and my cctv too. Mum has been left with a permanent bend in the arm and ptsd. I was taking her for a surprise break after being house bound for 15 years. Careful driving guys....:)

[@JvS1711]

I scrolled past your comment right as your clip was playing. Really touching hearing you try to calm your mother down immediately after the accident. I hope you're both doing OK.

[@idonotwantahandle2]

You did really well in such a testing situation. The situation about your mum is sad and I can only hope she may have a decent quality of life and find peace. Perhaps the Christian ministry people should pray more in these testing times.

13:42 where the stranded motorist has not climbed over the barrier to get off the carriageway - they may not be able to do so. In the event of a breakdown, my wife would be able to get out of the car and stand at the side like that, but she would not be able to climb over the concrete barrier (or the Armco that has appeared along most Smart motorways). She is 4'11" and disabled with both osteo and rheumatoid arthritis and simply would not have the strength in her weakened hand and joints to do so. I consider Smart motorways death traps for not only removing the hard-shoulder, but fencing the nearside lane in, giving disabled people nowhere at all to go.

[@pelicanofpunishment6]

Agreed. That HGV driver was clearly trying to bully the smaller car into letting them overtake. Or, at the very least, was trying to overtake unnecessarily. As truck drivers, we often have to sit behind slower moving vehicles because an overtake is too risky or would take too long. Even if a car is doing 10-20 under the limit, sometimes. I'd expect, if this footage got back to their TM, they're not working for them anymore.

At 5:19, Mercedes drifted a bit on the approach, but lorry had definitely seen the "red mist" descend and had been right up Mercedes rear end for some time after. Mercedes was in front, and lorry was going to have to do something REALLY dangerous to change that, so there's not much motive for brake checking. It could have been, but there's room for doubt.

I was taught the five blinks rule for changing lanes. 1 blink, mirrors, signal. 2 blinks, blind spot check. 3 blinks check forward and behind. 4 blinks check your mirrors again, 5 blinks check your blind spot again and complete your manoeuvre. I have a car with blind spot warning, I still check over my shoulder, it’s a habit! Like opening the car door with my left hand to avoid killing a cyclist. My driving tutor for the advanced stuff was a guy who had driven logistics for the military. He said mirrors are there to be used, they’re not there to replace your brain. Use everything you’ve got, including reflections off buildings, people looking at something you haven’t seen, and sound. I still roll my windows down at difficult junctions because I can hear what I can’t see.

#79 This clip @42:50 has been shown hundreds of times over the last 10 years, best of the month my arse!

[@ronprince1478]

@10.10 if the truck can’t see what’s happening on the road (blind spots) then it should not be roadworthy, simple. I have a vehicle with extremely poor rear and passenger side visibility, but with the use of cameras have excellent road awareness, cameras save lives.

8:43 really wished this was one of those times the cammer got out much bigger and beat the bejesus out of the guy in front, he deserved it.

[@lizardgod3671]

I do find it funny that the american dash cam videos are all 70MPH head ons and people acting like they are in Mad Max while the UK ones are "He cut me off!"

#11 - I dunno about brake check, that lorry was weaving all over the road like a pisshead on crystal maze

[@Torsin2000]

Pretty sure it was trying to get in front/pass the vehicle that was in front of it.

[@cigmorfil4101]

At the start of the video the lorry is fully in the wrong lane for the roundabout - if it was needing the space it should have straddled both lanes, and on exit it tries to leave at the same time. There was clearly some incident between the car and the lorry before the start of the video which has caused both drivers to see red and drive dangerously.

[@Colster1001]

#11 was a break check by the Marc, but what was the HGV thinking, driving like that!

[@whoamiuk1]

#91 I was always told to not go up the inside of a turning lorry as this can happen. To me its the cars fault

[@David_Trowbridge]

Tricky one. Lorry left a lot of space and probably should have checked before pulling out knowing how much space there was.

[@whoamiuk1]

@@David_Trowbridge they need more space on the inside as the gap will always close. That's why my instructor told me that. Also as a bike rider I would not go there

[@billyl90]

@@David_Trowbridge not really a tricky one as if you look at the road it actually a single lane, there is no middle markings stating its 2 lanes, its a wide road to allow lorries like that to turn and not have the trailer mount the curb, so to me the car driver was in the wrong twice, one for pulling up the inside of the lorry and another for stopping in his blind (ish) spot

[@kevinjohnson1958]

Totally the cars fault, how were they planning on looking for traffic approaching from the right. Blind Spot cameras would have been very useful here.

[@MrJohnny3shoes]

@@kevinjohnson1958 That's not the way insurance companies of traffic collision investigators look at it. Could the trucker have done anything to avoid this collision? Yes, he could have checked his left mirror to see if there was anything coming up on his left. He should have seen part of the car as he started to enter onto the other road.

89's reaction is my fave "welp we've been in a accident" grrrrrreat

[@BrianGriffinQuahog]

Top Dashcam Tip: If you're involved in a collision and you are not at fault but the at-fault driver is insisting you are and they aren't. DO NOT TELL THEM you have a dashcam. Simply let them make their statement to their insurer and you make yours and submit the footage. You will still get paid out/fixed and they will have their policy CANCELLED for INSURANCE FRAUD. It's a criminal conviction and they have to declare it to any new insurer for 5 years, longer if the prospective insurers specifically asks on the application. They will be paying through the nose for YEARS for insurance and given the seriousness of the conviction may not be able to continue in their job. My lovely ex-neighbour found this out the hard way when he reversed into me then claimed I ran into the back of him.

[@bubbles190]

I hope they dont have people that rely on them

[@sudeephokundi7352]

Every clip in idiots in cars is a new level of 'Are you kidding me?!' 😳

[@agent0066]

Funny how nobody's dashcam ever records them making a mistake, only other people.

[@vivalavita555]

Actually P plates indicate you're a new driver who's recently passed and therefore not perfect 🤪

[@adampoultney8737]

6:04 Probably stopped the lorry getting stuck under the bridge just down the road. 26 times a year was the record or something like that I think

[@a.nelprober4971]

27:15 always makes me cringe when people flex for no reason. The car was completely irrelevant 😂

[@hausmaster9801]

#11 - that wagon driver was being abused by the merc probably way before the video started too, and yes 100% a brake check

[@wavydavy9816]

Yup. Lorry drivers are normally very reasonable and responsible drivers (and attentive too) 👍

[@brianperry]

@@wavydavy9816 That is supposed to be irony isn't it.!!

[@pb6198]

Not a brake check, had every right to stop at a roundabout

[@wavydavy9816]

@@pb6198 You also have the right to go round ad round a roundabout for as long as you wish, but it will still increase the liklihood of an accident, inconvenience loads of people and everyone will think you're a dick. Just because you CAN do something it doesn't mean you should. I'm pretty sure that's what being entitled means? 🤷‍♂️
