I feel wretched for the innocent people in their car getting involved in this, but I have to admit I’m really glad the initially vehicle the teenager hit wasn’t a dirt bike. It would have been a really different tale.
@mpk1390 When you’re filming and pouring you hold the steering wheel WITH the iphone in the same hand and not pay attention to whether you’re getting a excellent shot or not, and the full time you have your attention on the road. MUCH safer than looking up and down repetetively if you question me.
whats the car at 1:12? The one involved in the accidnet, the gray one.
@GaryH315223 A Hyundai Sonata.
@Dllshockk I am skeptical as well unless it was a woman behind the wheel then it would all make sense.
@GaryH315223 hyundai sonata?
the debate whether recording on his camera is as terrible is something that shouldn’t be, given, some people can multitask and stay focused on all that he/she does. Just some ignorant people reflect they can do it all lacking level headedness. sadly, there are plenty of people who go out of their way not realizing that pouring on the road is far greater of a worry than focusing on a text message.
To the people saying that video taping wasnt a excellent thought any, thats completely besides the point. The video being taken is being shown to you, therefore, like another set of eyes on the road. You could essentially drive even as watching a video of what was in adjoin of the car. Not conception messages on a tiny ass screen but.
When you got close to the crashed car you can see the self in their seat and they look extremely pale, nearly zombie like :S
Excellent business it wasn’t me, cause I would drag this fucking kid out and hold him upside down and skin him bustling.
@prleet Yes, I’m sure that’s exactly what you’d do.
No interview of the kid????????????????WTF
@rock99rock
lol
@Marshallnd
Right indeed…. that being said, “It wasn’t a excellent thought to video tape even as pouring.”… that being said, texting even as pouring is even worse…. THAT being said, I didn’t see any evidence of texting even as pouring now that I reflect about it.
@ZephyrnixLive Truer. I reflect the maker of this video needs to post the full god damn business. Piece of shit.
@mpk1390 As long as you aren’t looking at the phone constantly like you would even as texting i reflect it’s ok.
texting?
no texting here, most likely he was drunk.
do you really people reflect he was texting, what kinda dumbass nearly crashes and then keeps on texting.
you people are so naive, dont believe everything you read.
That was me in the chevy
@Dllshockk I would assume they know because they went and talked to the dude as well as the other drivers that were struck… Also, I reflect you’d be surprised at the stupidity of some people.
the self’s not texting it wouldn’t be that terrible. FAKE
this self may not have been texting and this could have been a lot worse if the other drivers had not been pouring defensively or if they had been texting or on the phone or eating or whatever. The lesson here is that you must be awake, aware and do not trust other drivers to always be doing what they are suppose to be doing. Even people eating get distracted but this is not to say that texting is extremely perilous.
Kto z Polski?
@AquariaDesign
I don’t reflect so, cause he quickly corrects himself. If he was drunk or in an medical emergency he wouldn’t be able to right himself like that. That is consistent with someone looking down for a even as, looking up, correcting, and going back to looking down again.
HOW THE HELL YOU MISS THE EXACT MOMENT FO THE CRASH?!
ASSHOLE!
