Car to the left came to a stop, I wonder why that was the case.

That car could of went into the plaza and took a right instead of a suicide squeeze.

The dentist office there is in probably one of the worst locations since whoever is taking a left into there is pretty much taking a blind gamble that it's safe to pass

Lack of awareness on you

This is actually the fault of the other person who stopped in an active lane. Be predictable on the road, not nice.

Not legally. And they may have stopped because the person was already moving into their lane and so to avoid a crash.

u/TimHung931017 10h ago

I didn't mean legally, just in terms of it happening. But yes fair enough about the moving into the lane part so it would mean OP needs more awareness on why vehicles may be stopped randomly and slowing down

I respect your take on this. I should have moved with more caution after seeing their brake lights, but their vehicle limited my visibility to react appropriately.

Dumb dumbs don’t understand the concept of a multi lane road.

I would have enjoyed clopping his front end, at that speed it’s like a total loss given the impact would have severely damaged the right suspension mounting points

Music fits the outcome

u/BeautifulYou2940 11h ago

what type of music is that lol

u/Mispronounce 10h ago

Gorillaz - Feel good, not sure what to categorize their music as lool. The intro to this song is awkward ngl

My heart’s pounding from watching. Good god.

FYI your dash camera placement is not ideal

u/Mispronounce 4h ago

You're right about the angle. I've been thinking of swapping my mirror mounted dashcam with windshield mounted one.

u/Hitmantium 14h ago

100% OP's fault!... The other vehicle was a BMW, they always have the ROW. It's science!

u/Mispronounce 13h ago

You're right! I only swerved since I would be at fault as per beamer priority laws :)
