Let's call oblivious drivers the ones who aren't paying attention. In previous vehicles, I didn't give two $hits if someone hit me or not. But that doesn't mean I was oblivious.

In fact, I've had someone hit me in this exact scenario except it was a right turn. In hindsight, I was young and stupid and should have been defensive and let the guy cut me off. But he ended up putting a nice dent in the passenger door of my Ford Exploder Sport. I was donating the car in a few weeks, so I didn't even make an issue of it or file a claim. He had to deal with his rental car company.

I agree, especially there since the right lane merges into the left one on the ramp. I usually go for the outside one since the inside lane gets backed up.

Same turn, different day.

So this person decided to pull out in front of me to cross the street. It wouldn't have been so bad, but they decided to slow down to almost a complete stop to go over the tiny bump on the other side

Never know what you might come across. Speed limit here was 55 mph.

Caught this the other day in my neighborhood. Pay attention to the oncoming red car. Something seemed very strange just before he passed. Specifically, I believe he blew the stop sign.

Hard to tell from the youtube video so I'll post the original too.

yeah he blew the stop.

So guys, I just order two Contour cameras, two mini SD cards, and two mounts. I will be ready to add some content soon.

NISMO IX · 09-06-2016, 11:52 PM

After having these cams a few days now I do have content but, lol, between the learning curve on editing (which is all new to me) and having to order better, sturdier mounts (shaky cams are not fun to watch), the content I have would have been nice. Three red light runners (one almost hit me), four ricers reving their N/A four bangers at me and what I like to call, "doing lines" which are either distracted people or people who can't drive and continually travel well into the break down lane and back. I WILL have some good content soon.

Well.... whatever the reason I cannot embed at the moment but here is a link to one. Distracted, drunk, or dumb?

I can't stand the A holes that can't keep it between the lines... When they go over the line, they pick up the loose gravel, kick it up, and you end up with chipped paint /windshield !

I don't have any special programs or tools for editing. I have my camera set-up to record in 10 minute increments. I used to just upload the entire 10 minute video to YouTube, and then use their super basic editing tools to trim it down to however long it needs to be.

Then I realized that VLC media player can do the same thing, so now I use that to trim the videos before I upload them.

This is how *NOT* to ride. First rider is a crash waiting to happen. You don't pass on the inside of a blind curve!!!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention, his body position is all twisted up. His head should be down and to the inside of the corner. @ss should be off the seat with body weight shifted to the inside.

We stopped at the same gas station they did. I made a few polite comments. Lead rider said he's been doing this for a long time and it's fine. So be it. It's a crash waiting to happen.
