@@surelyyoujokemeinfailure7531 " It's as if the cameras have a much wider field of view than people's eyes do" Human eyes(if memory serves) have a horizontal FOV(field of view) of about 135 degrees, whereas most dashcams have a much wider FOV. But of course, the shit ones have a narrower FOV, which I don't recommend. "On the camera you can see a lot of these accidents before they happen." That's because we're watching these accidents in hindsight. I would assume some(if not all) of the drivers don't see everything that happens beforehand, depending on if the individual has good situational awareness or not.

I've been asked why I leave such a large gap in front of me when driving these days. It's because I don't trust the fuckers behind me. Whenever breaking hard I flick my eyes to the review mirror and if needs be I brake slower just so I don't get rear ended.

I swear a lot of the people sending in footage think they did nothing wrong. While showing they're tailgating or otherwise blasting down roads far too quickly. O_O Just because the speed limit is 60kph does not mean you have to be doing 61kph at a minimum.

The amount of people that get hit or stop to help without making the scene safe for themselves first is astonishing. Too many people have died including off duty emergency workers because of this. Of course they want to help but you have to make sure you will be safe doing that before attending to others. Situational awareness is so important. You don't want to rush blindly to help, only to be rear ended by more cars and killed along with the person you're attempting to help. Stay safe out there people.

Cammer needs to learn some courtesy and respect on the road when it comes to oversized loads with escorts. Failing to obey an escort vehicle can result in a visit from the cops in some states as pilots have authority on the roads that over-rules the average motorist, private or professional. Don't be an ass and ignore the people who are there to protect you around the moving hazard.
