The Bad Drivers of Los Angeles 18

[@jackedrussell]

I thought the traffic in GTA V was shit and unrealistic, but Rockstar did a pretty good job with it.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha sounds like they got it down to a tee.

[@trevorslab]

yep

[@ls2443]

I did a video on that! Bad Drivers of LS

[@tom7601]

"Quit honking, can't you see I'm on the phone?!?"

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Literally "I'm almost done, one second"

[@matt9759]

I love your channel and how you're the only dashcammer that actually shows his face

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you! And yeah, I think it adds a personal touch. :)

[@matt9759]

that and he's cute as hell, to be real.

[@saablazer]

1:41 I don't see how people can drive like that with classic cars. Classic cars irreplaceable if they get damaged!

[@nlpnt]

You can get just about anything for a 1955-70ish full size Chevy two-door hardtop. But it's only original once.

[@MrAudienceMember2662015]

Does his own body work.

[@ThomasKent1346]

@8:24 - The funeral procession on the freeway. When my Dad passed, they had to transport him from Gardena to to Riverside. (He's buried @ the Riverside National Cemetery). I was stationed in the Pilippines when he passed, came home on emergency leave for the funeral, so I don't know what route they took, but I imagine it was the 91 freeway.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Got it, so they did that because he was buried at a different location than the place where the ceremony occurred?

[@ddylla85]

Where I come from, drivers yield to funeral processions. Regardless if you're on the freeway or a city street. Something called respect.

[@yeahnoway111]

this is LA, do you think people give a fuck

[@A_guan]

These videos make me scared of driving in LA haha...which is where I'm driving to In a few weeks

[@JewCrew420]

Tech Defender me too 😳😂

[@diegothephotographer2036]

Tech Defender I'm going their in a month, I'm watching this so I know where is a "safe" and "nice" place to drive. Lol

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Let me know what you think of driving here!!

[@brittanys.6499]

10/10 points for your sassy descriptions and LVP sighting! I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel - I love it 😍

[@cluelessdriversofmaryland1816]

You win the award for best captions in your clips. The shade is real!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Hahaha thank you, serving shadiness all day.

[@ColoradoDashCam]

0:20 I bet that guy gets honked at so much that he doesn't even know it happens anymore lol

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha right, he's like whatever just keep going.

[@gepd12]

Legend has it that those drivers stuck on La Cienega just barley got home right now, 5 days after this video was uploaded.

[@MarshallLoveday]

La Cienega: "Let's take la Cienega. It's GOT to be faster than the 405, right?"

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha right, how bad could it be? Oh...

[@justmythought1586]

People complain about LA drivers can't drive in the rain. Lived just north of Detroit for about 8 years. The first snow fall, cars are sliding all over the place. I just had to laugh. No better than we are.

[@bubbalee9237]

My wife is from L.A. and tells me about how bad it is to drive over there (I'm born and raised in south Louisiana). I told her it couldn't be that bad...I was wrong. You've got a new subscriber ✌🏻️

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha awesome! I'm sure she has some good driving stories.

[@xOhhLauraa]

legend has it those cars on la cienega are still waiting to pass lmaoooo

[@AudiaciousLife]

the cab cutting off you and others was great, heard the window roll down was hoping to hear you tell him off lol

[@accxrddashcam]

LA doesn't even seem fun to drive in. Just very annoying.

[@theoxtheory]

BadDrivers PA it just genuinely sucks

[@aminabesmilin4691]

BadDrivers PA it is annoying especially down town 🙄

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

It really is annoying. I can be having a great day and by the time I drive home I'm in a bad mood.

[@geovannycruz9361]

BadDrivers PA it is very annoying lots of traffic! That's why I got myself a motorcycle

[@SlevinCCX]

Its fun when you join in

[@wildbolt102]

"I almost died" LOL SURE

[@tranquility2745]

You clearly dont understand the damage that a collision between two cars going over 30mph can cause.

[@WasephWastar]

@@tranquility2745 he was going like 30 kph at best..

[@tranquility2745]

@@WasephWastar Even if it were 30, the damage would still be severe.

[@FerrisSOCAL]

I can't believe you passed a hearse. When did that become a thing?

[@duanevp]

Motorcycle funeral escorts aren't necessarily police even if they do wear uniforms and have flashing lights on their bikes. Some can be private funeral escort services even. I believe the usual idea behind having two cycles, however, is for the lead cyclist to run ahead just a bit, block cross traffic at the next intersection, and the cycle behind then runs up to the front to do the same at the intersection after that. In general, the idea is to keep the procession moving and ultimately get OUT of traffic with minimal disruption.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Oh that makes sense because I was surprised you could just buy out cops like that. I could see how they're not exactly cops, but part of an escort service.

[@GreaterLADashcam]

La Cienega is such a nightmare in the afternoon! Idk how people can survive driving through there. Same thing for the 405 and 10 freeways. BDGLA 34 will feature Santa Monica, Marina del Rey and Venice, which I'll release sometime in June. Great video!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Nice, I'll keep my eye out for that vid! Yeah those routes are always terrible!!

[@sex14]

I agree!! i used to go to SMC in Santa Monica and shit there's always traffic in MAJOR intersections no matter what time it is LOL! and yes people drive like idiots all the time. Reminds me when i was driving Mexico city almost a like on how they drive here in L.A.

[@PoppaShark]

I've never seen or ever been in La Cienega when it was THAT packed. That went far!

[@robbiehernandez8019]

Thanks man for another upload!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

You got it! Thanks for tuning in!

[@tHadfield11]

Love the shots of La Cienega, definitely captures LA picture.

[@queenhayden7060]

Lmao ken will always be Ken😂😩 notice the two Altimas racing old vs new 6:19

[@edwardmiessner6502]

5:13 to 5:43 Actually going all the way to the end of a merging lane and hugging the shoulder stripe when you merge, although rude, is a more efficient use of space and reduces the length of the backup.

[@2isadventures]

I just came back from Los Angeles last weekend to watch a family member of mine graduate from USC. I got to experience the horrible driving. It was horrific. Everyone was just cutting close and just are careless. Driving in LA was scary. The traffic can also get hectic. Overall, I liked it though... Nice episode.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Oh wow, yeah then you know all about the traffic scene out here. Did you get to hear Will Ferrell speak?

[@2isadventures]

Drivers of Los Angeles I'm just seeing this because my phone decides not give me notifications from KZbin sometimes, but unfortunately not.

[@DTHarper556]

I drive in LA everyday and 80% of this video is normal driving here

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I agree, but I still think it's pretty crazy driving.

[@DTHarper556]

Drivers of Los Angeles 😂😂I guess I'm just used to it

[@geovannycruz9361]

I love this channel since I do live in the area where you usually end up driving at, and do see all these people drive like idiots 🙄 I capture most of it but end up deleting it because it takes so much time to edit and upload, glad you have this channel!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

You should totally upload as well! There are so many crazy incidents in LA, we need more documentation.

[@lbjsaid200years6]

What if I bought you a train horn?

[@TORRIC2009]

LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you!! :)

[@mikonda]

To me, one of the signs of maturity is letting little things go. Disconnect your fucking horn already, leave the house a few minutes early, and you'll live a happier life.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I think I've improved with my road rage since I was a teenager.

[@hashtagdiva5475]

I actually got break checked at a light. Car let me merge in behind a truck (Which was the first one at the light) due to traffic, and I had to get pretty close to him. Light changed, he moved a foot and a half and hit his breaks. Sure as shit I rear ended him. If it wasn't for the fact that I had a dash cam, I'd have been liable. Instead he's the one owing for the $10,000 in damages to my car. Dumbass didn't even have insurance, I don't feel sorry for him at all.

[@carlfromtheoc1788]

I live in south Orange County and have even been on some of those streets and freeway (usually in a bus or shuttle van). My modus operandi for going to L.A. is to drive to the train station and take the train to Union Station, then the light rail to get about - especially since it is usually just me and I am going to places easily served by the L.A. light rail system. And if I go to LAX, it is by shuttle van. By and large, drivers are self-absorbed dolts who are sure they are the only ones that matter and will do anything to get that one extra car space ahead, even if it makes no difference to the length of their commute. Hence my desire to stay off the road.

[@Veegs.]

Carl FromTheOC The 5 down here (tustin area) turns to shit during the workdays

[@NyuuMikuru1]

One with "I can't " that's no way to baby a cherry car like that. Wreck it and it's gone for good.

[@Arthe5]

Is it legal to undertake (aka overtake on the right side) in the US?

[@eliottkid123]

Nice video like always, it's hilarious bc I live around and I see the same type shit everyday... What car do u drive now?

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Right! This stuff happens all the time. I drive a red Mercedes GLK and I love it. :)

[@DashCamOutEast]

So many intense clips! California is like a whole different world! And I thought I had it bad in New Jersey... I miss when people actually heeded horn honking. Great video as always!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you! And I'm sure it's bad there as well, plus I've heard people are generally more aggressive out there haha.

[@DashCamOutEast]

I have no first-hand experience with driving in California, so I can't say who's more aggressive. But NJ drivers ARE very aggressive. Especially in the North Eastern region near New York City.

[@AliasUndercover]

On the plus side, I don't feel so bad about driving in Houston anymore. Now, if I still lived in Dallas I might give you a run for your money, but LA has Houston beat.

[@ry4n_dashcam]

love it when u post

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I appreciate that, thank you!

[@jonnyohiggins6969]

Teamwork makes the dream work, I'm gonna use that.

[@CluelessDriversInSoCal]

Thanks for the update sir, I love the horn on your vehicle. My"favorite" was 6:30 because wow... ☺

[@jayyslol]

Bro I love watching your videos so far I watched every single bad drivers of Los Angeles

[@groovytirma2409]

THE LONG WAIT IS FINALLY OVER

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha I know I took over a month this time. I'm trash I know. :P

[@KiyaWarrior]

@ 0:38, in his defense, i drive the same exact truck and that truck spins out really easily in the rain

[@tonyj4271]

Why would anyone want to live in LA by choice? So many cars, so much traffic, craziness everywhere and pollution!

[@mogotrevo]

I don't know, maybe because they look at the good parts too? You can't focus on only the bad parts of things if you want to enjoy life.

[@sohaibakhtar192]

LA is amazing

[@baddriversofst.johnsnl6180]

"no respect and i almost died" ....... *_I_* almost died lollllll

[@samsungfanboy9256]

Today a semi driver thought that it was a good idea to reverse across a small, very busy road for 3 minutes from a gas station to someone's lawn/driveway.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

That's insane, I would have gotten so furious for him blocking the road for that long. Grr.

[@davidrichardson8469]

It totally looked like that big ass Nissan van (in the parking garage) hit you. I was scared lol

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I'm surprised he didn't, it was soooo close.

[@bluesky2927]

you know youre going too slow when a prius flashes you

[@tylernguyen7891]

When assholes don't merge on the freeway and decide to try to get farther up, I genuinely enjoy it when people (myself included) refuse to allow them to merge.

[@apextide1714]

And this is why I moved to a small town in Kentucky. Well also because it is cheap AF, people are chill, and shit ton of jobs in Lexington, which is only a 10 minute drive and even in rush hour, it's never a parking lot. Just go with the flow.

[@nfdashcam]

Awesome captures! Definitely a sub.

[@DoSum4Me]

That red on your Mercedes is fricking fabulous!!

[@hashtagdiva5475]

I have never seen traffic back up ever like that. Though maybe that's because I'm from Central Alberta, and as Canadians we're polite enough to make sure there's options to get off every however many feet lmao.

[@NyuuMikuru1]

One with traffic jam, yep, got that here in Michigan as well. Especially on M59 eastbound afternoon after 2 pm. Mile after mile. Bad if you got 1/8 of a tank left.

[@Betweenhello1]

The funeral thing is actually very common...not sure why but I see it often

[@mydaysyeah]

Somehow the driving in a city with more than 5 million people is better than the driving in my small town in the south. End my life.

[@AlexanderPlasman]

what i dont get is why not give some room to the truck drivers? People never learn if you see a truck it is not there because he likes to drive there but he is working and give him/her some room to manouver 2:06 and beyond, Truck is backing up, noo i am in a hurry let me cut you and dissapear because the truckdriver cant see you! Take a 2 minute break dont give a truck driver a heart attack and relax in your car Please :D

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

2:14 you can see his hand, he waved me forward, I was going to wait. I don't want that shit hitting my car.

[@BadDriversOfAugustaGeorgia]

Thanks for reminding why I'm glad I don't live on So Cal anymore. :-)

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha you got it... Although I heard traffic in Atlanta is pretty bad over there as well.

[@ryanlong9754]

Please please please upload more!!!!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha I'm trying!

[@BadDriversofCentralOhio]

The vanderpumps are my ish. I watch Vanderpump rules every time it's on

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Right, I love them. You go Lisa.

[@Drrck11]

6:27 If traffic gets backed-up like that everyday, I would never take that road.

[@22megaton29]

One time (interestingly on my last day of driving school) my dad was driving me home We were going down highway 78 to get back to the house We get to this intersection (it’s like 7:15) that was empty besides a few cars in the turning lane for a Walmart In a SUV (i think it was an escape) in the turning lane we couldn’t see started to go into the neighborhood and both my dad and the SUV just slammed the brakes

[@tom7601]

A parking lot? Sure, he has his "Park Anywhere" flashers on!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Right?? Grr, not a fan of that at all, especially on main streets.

[@edbrown2061]

As you can tell we have wwaayy too many people here already. Please, the rest of the world, stop coming here. LA is full, please leave😤😤

[@FordFalcon1962nBlue]

phew glad thats over...2 garbage trucks: YOU SHALL NOT PASS

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Right?!? How did that make sense.

[@FordFalcon1962nBlue]

why would they even have 2 garbage trucks together? most go a separate route where i live

[@13littlelazy]

Cab drivers are the WORST !

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Ugh I know, I've had so many negative experiences. Lyft for me whenever I can.

[@Bill_Jones.]

Great video as always !! I can't believe the traffic jam on La Cienega. Is this an everyday occurance? If so, I'd buy a helicopter.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you! It usually is bad, but that was an extreme case, I something drastic must have happened further up that directly.

[@TheGreatMattsby24]

I live in a rural area so traffic as bad as 6:29 that isn't caused by an accident confuses and frustrates me. Thankfully traffic in Charlotte, NC generally doesn't get that bad.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

That happens all the time, completely dead stopped on the freeway for no reason.

[@katz734]

How do you keep your sanity in La? I don't think I'd stay sain there.😬

[@BadDriversofHouston]

Another great video

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you!!

[@redgringrumboldt8983]

I missed your videos!

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Aww I'm glad you enjoy them so much. Took a bit longer than usual.

[@Youngboyfan42069]

Literally every major city has a parking police division

[@themadmachinist8637]

Some of your maneuvers aren't exactly polite either. Also I doubt the one wayness of that one way street. The street parking appears to be by directional. I can tell you though Bull shit drivers are universal.

[@macdab55]

With a traffic like in LA Cienega, how much time do they actually spend there?

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Right? That had to have been over 30 minutes of just sitting there.

[@Dannymo-it9js]

2:10 can trucks not park... give them room they need it god forbid you spend 10 secs watching someone with more experience than you back into a space

[@leosroar1988]

I would probably choose an area where I didn't have to make that kind of commute and I would try being in walking distance if possible for work etc... save myself the fuel money

[@DowntwnToronto]

After watching this I need a Xanax and a hot bath

[@richardrosielle1728]

Come to Holland and see really busy roads, then wait till rush hour and wonder how we do it

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Aren't the roads really windy there too?

[@richardrosielle1728]

Not really, just an awful lot of people going the same way

[@Meded-bi5qd]

The first video is where you lost me..."I almost died."

[@KarlMalowned32]

La Cienega looks like a nightmare.

[@weedhopper4786]

I wasn't watching the cars, I was looking for GTA5 landmarks. I think I saw Trever Phillips.

[@brainforce6673]

I am so sad when your videos end. My favorite clip was on the street with two obstacle course on it.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I'm glad you enjoy watching it so much! Glad you liked that clip as well, it was so ridiculous that it happened back to back like that.

[@edwardmiessner6502]

4:00 Direct to the left lane! A maneuver common in Boston.

[@tackyman2011]

Bring back freeway shootings= Bring back respect.

[@ngsgresgesgsdgsjrt]

2:15 because hes backing in to the drive way.

[@cameroonking0076]

and that's why lane splitting on a motorcycle is legal in Cali

[@cyclenerd882]

The funeral procession are not necessarily cops. You can rent those guys.

[@carlocolocho5123]

I don't know how you're able to deal with that, and I thought that San Francisco was bad

[@GreaterTorontoAreaDashcam]

5:10- Guess those drivers didn't want to feel left out from what the driver on the median did

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Haha yeah, pulled over to see the attraction. :P

[@77gravity]

1:50 that guy must have a death wish. He drives like an idiot in an OLD car, that has (by modern standards) shitty brakes, shitty suspension, shitty steering, no crumple zones, no airbags, probably no seatbelts, no roll or crash cage. If he's lucky the windscreen is a modern laminate,

[@Drrck11]

1:40 those cars are parked in bad spot. Those are accidents just waiting to happen.

[@OscarMaris]

this is my favorite gay channel

[@iMidnightMonster]

The way people drive on the shoulder reminds me of Thailand. People do that a lot there

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Seriously, that's not okay at all, yet it always happens.

[@gibbs1966]

2 of the videoes where you show no respect is utterly distgusting,the last one that funeral you should drop those disrespectfull comments...Shame on you...

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

I put things that happen as I drive on my channel. It's not like I could wish them dead.

[@lorelei22]

La Cienega=I-4 in Florida during rush hour

[@MaxMichendorf]

in Germany you would have lost your license for years... in Germany the drivers have much more discipline

[@Unknown-Guitarist]

in most part of Europe

[@jakeboat9716]

the funeral ticked me off I bet if u died you'd want the best security for yourself and loved ones do say who's dead and need 2 cops just stud mind your business cause that certainly isn't

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

If I was dead I wouldn't care.

[@lilljack98]

man L.A. ive punched mirrors for less than alot of stuff in this video

[@stressbelden5869]

Good vid. You're not a nitpicker. Just some L.A. drivers not driving courteously......just common sense.

[@DriversofLosAngeles]

Thank you! Yeah there are things that people do that annoy me, but I try and filter to what is actually interesting on here.
