7JPA246

Since I posted a couple of days back, thought I'd try and keep the ball rolling here... This clip features some idiot cutting across the gore point (well, at least they signaled for that) then getting into my lane (no signal for that, much less any acceleration) and giving me a chance to give my ABS brakes (thank GOD for those, or else this would have ended differently) and horn a run. Shortly after you see them braking way more than is necessary for a gentle curve in a transition road, probably in retaliation for me having the nerve to lay on the horn as they nearly caused themselves to be rear-ended. For the icing on the cake, they preform an illegal pass on the right.

People who don't signal. There's a lot of them out there, and you just have to do your best to try and figure out what they're going to do. So, when you see someone following behind someone else who's turning to the right, then they brake and head off to the right, too, I usually figure they're going to the right. Well, take nothing for granted. Could be they usually drive a semi, where they need to swing to the right before going left! I was trying to get out from behind said slow moving vehicles, and damn near creamed them! Another instance where if there were audio, you'd hear me laying on my horn. I'm pretty sure they had no idea where they were going, because they pulled into the driveway, and then stopped there. I'd bet it wasn't the first time, too, because their back bumper was all banged up, and there's a dent on the trunk lid.

This driver gets in the lane that picks up for the 60 freeway... then decides he didn't really want to be there, and comes into my lane without looking! You'll notice I waited until the lane they had vacated was completely established before I even got in that lane. If there were audio, you'd hear me on my horn the whole time they are drifting back, but they don't register the fact that they are changing lanes having not checked to see if there is room to do so safely!

Runner!

I wish this was a better video, as it is you have to look REALLY close, probably on full screen and more than once to make it out. I hesitated to even put this up because it's near impossible to see, but it's there, just after the sign and just before the overpass. At around the 3 second mark, a pedestrian runs from the right side across three traffic lanes, the two on the interchange and the one on the ramp to the left. It looks a bit like he may be continuing on across the two additional freeway lanes after that, too (and I can't see why he wouldn't be doing just that, there's really nothing on the island he's ended up on!!!) In fact, that's about the clearest you see him, standing on the island at the very end of the clip!

I'm considering trying to find a better quality dashcam...
