After seeing that, I know I won't be speeding any time soon..
Got me speechless, and I almost cried watching that.

E: As requested, you might want to visit this thread after watching that.

I still believe that most of the time it's the fault of the pedestrian whenever a car hits one, even when look at most of those videos of cars hitting people. People need to look before crossing the road, judge speeds of cars and don't take risks. I'm sitting here thinking how the fuck did these idiots not see the car coming? Again, it doesn't apply to all scenarios, but most.

lot more than just speeding accidents.  lots of not paying attention, which pisses me off more than anything else.  i hate when people are completely oblivious to what the hell they are doing when they drive.  nice vid +1

lol I guess this is why women are safer drivers

That was a bit of an odd video, like a mix of a safety advert and an action movie trailer. Left me kinda confused.

safer doesnt mean better. encountered plenty of horrible woman drivers. ie my sister she got a car stuck in our garage sideways, its 4 car, typical 2 car door width. wasnt a small car either
old people are the worst tbh. almost wrecked my by trying to get in my lane when i was right next to them. mirrors are on cars for a reason.

The obvious fugitives speeding from the police somehow seemded misplaced, bu the rest, especially the first few minutes made me cry.

It was always my biggest fear to hit an innocent child out of either my or anothers stupidity. I couldn´t live with that. Shit´s just not worth it.


edit: Crap, now people start to look at me funny, cause I sunk my reddish eyed head behind my monitor.

If it takes a video to stop you driving too fast you probably shouldn't have a car tbh (note there's a big difference between driving too fast and speeding, just coz it's the max speed you can legally do on a road doesn't mean it's appropriate all the time. Queue the I'm too leet to crash big men of the internets ), on the subject of the video though,  that couple getting crushed between the chav car and the wall always makes me feel sick :S

Honestly,, none of those videos were "honest" mistakes...

I see tons of driving while stupid, driving into the oncoming lane on a highway, not paying attention to driving, not thinking at all... Ultimately idiots causing harm to innocents or themselves... the former of which, is unnaceptable while the latter is called natural selection

Personally I drive ~200km every day and on the straight roads where the speed limit is 80kph I drive 100kph (max allowed before strike on your licence) and this video will not change that.... I keep proper distance to people infront, pay attention to what I'm doing & not the "babe" on the sidewalk & drive after the conditions.... and unlike some of the retards in the video,, I don't drive 100kph IN TOWN!...

Innocent bystanders getting hurt because of other peoples stupidity is allways sickening & should be punishable near the same level as intentional crimes imo

i dont like how it shows brutal real crash then goes to some fake one that always leads to he car hitting the tree sideways.  Half the video with like clown music would be a hit on video  (the fake crashes)

Sickening, thanks Eifa, now I don't wanna eat my mini eggs. A lot of those seemed to be caused more by distracted drivers than speeders. None the less, it makes you stop and think. People have become all to comfortable behind a steering wheel doing all sorts of things that are better done else where. People who are in a hurry are the worst of the lot, they should have left sooner, or need to be resigned to the fact that they will be late, better late than dead. This is followed closely by the people using the drivers seat to brush their hair/ put on make up/ shave (yes, in my job I have seen all these and more). But the ultimate distracted driver would have to be the guy getting a BJ while going down the highway... I don't wanna be any where near that car.

I know quite a few woman drivers who crash all the bloody time. One is 18 and has this bloody nice BMW. I think her tally is up to 4 or 5 now. Just reversing into shit and stuff like that. Her mother is the same, so I hear.
Another has smashed the front of her car (another BMW, something related going on here?), and everyone says she cant drive for shite. Dont know what the cause of that was however.

I use to go somewhat faster than whats advised on my provisional 1 licence (first stage of licence where I could drive myself), thinking I was top shit. But after getting a speeding ticket (which was put into my mothers name/licence as the flash didnt see my p-plate) and getting my provisional 2 licence, I have told myself to slow the fuck down. I find myself going ~10km/h over the limit im my car, and I just find it peculiar to how easy to think I'm going the limit, whereas in fact Im speeding. (Might be my accelerator, its too damn loose. In my parents cars its easy to stay at a certain speed because the accelerator has a certain 'stiffness' or resistance to it).

Interesting video too. Makes you think how easy shit turns sour in a matter of seconds.

yeah women are quite bad drivers, me and this girl friend of mine went to the drive thru, she was driving and she missed the call box and she failed at reversing to it so i had to turn the wheel for her
edit: oh and this one girl who drives a golden VW buggy last year at my school got 3 tickets at the same spot in front of school
women these days
