and it's genius too, because if it's the other person's fault, you have proof. if it's your fault, you don't have the video.

multiple reasons why I don't think it is a cop. He reaction was not to turn of his sirens and block of traffic it was pull the the side of the road. Any cop would turn on sirens right away. 2, everyone was going faster than him. Conditions don't permit that amount of speed cops would pull them over. 3 because it had no time stamp or date stamp which all cop cars do so they the exact moment of the incident.

People just dont know what to do in snow man.

Last time i was back home in England it snowed a couple inches, I was driving with a girl who even while it was snowing was carrying speed right up to the back of cars and then braking hard to stop just behind them. At EVERY single intersection/light/holdup.

After a while i said to her something like 'you need to take it easy, sooner or later you ain't gonna be able to stop at all.' She seriously couldn't understand why I said that. Just no comprehension at all of the fact that snow = less grip = less braking. I was gobsmacked

It's crazy. Even with "great Finnish drivers" we do have a shitload of accidents anyway. Just today there have been over 500 fender-benders in the capital area because it snowed +25cm in a few hours and visibility was very low.

It only takes that one dickhead or vaginahead to still keep on driving like it's a regular day in their ABS/DDM/RRO-equipped SUVs to fuck up a lot of peoples' day. For the last five years, the most well-equipped and modern cars have been in most crashes and causes of incidents here.

For insurance reasons. Watch this video:




They were running an insurance scam where they would back up into the car, then claim they rear ended them. I'm buying a dash cam

Pretty much how it is here, too, and most places for that matter.

It snows, people get all haughty, drive super fucking fast, then crash in to shit. Dumbasses just don't learn.

We got some lowland snow earlier this winter, and this shitbag passed me on a no-passing two lane road (35mph speed limit in good conditions). He was going at least 45-50. Naturally, he would never drive like that when there wasn't snow, but it was time to be a dick. Well he ended up in the ditch at the next curve, and I passed him giving him the finger, and kept on driving.

As for the OP video: holy fucking hell. Watched it like 2 dozen times last night.
