I hear so much crap about ICBC, probably the only reason why I'm glad to be in Ontario. I don't get how they can justify that call when the incident was clearly caught.
My thoughts exactly...if it was a hit and run and you didn't get the license plate I would totally understand but they can bill the other drive no problem
Except Ontario doesn’t allow radar detectors, can’t live without mine
@@vancouversworstdrivers It happened to my friend a few months ago. She was parked on the side of the road and sitting in it. Some Uhaul van side swiped her. She called ICBC and was told that she has to pay the deductible first and if the other driver reports the accident they'll refund her the money. ICBC is such a rip off man.
iccybikky has a monopoly and just made the laws even worse. BC is the last province you want to get into an accident in, they will find you at fault by some %, so they don't have to pay.
MONOPOLY and Crown Corporation. There are your answers.
It's always fun trying to determine where the clips take place "Oh! I know that intersection."
all i can say is thank god I don't run into these kinds of things nearly as often as they seem to happen
kloppanator lol ikr
Lol I do the same thing
And there’s that time when the intersection is just one block away from your house
7:50 pedestrian’s fault. not in crosswalk, not paying attention to the civic that’s tryna turn, and crossing against the flashing hand
and the car was already 2/3 of the way through the cross walk before the guy even stepped off the curb....
Also the pedestrian light was already counting and showing don't cross. That is the time for the cars to turn. You can only stsrt crossing when the white man is lit on the light
Great channel and thanks for sharing. I apologize for the rant but driving is one of my all-time favorite activities that I take very seriously. I started driving in 1970 and have been fortunate enough to have done some motocross, stock car, and rally racing. I have driven well over a million miles in 24 different countries around the world and have lived in Vancouver since 2004. Vancouver drivers are some of the worst drivers I have ever encountered. And by worst, I mean, a complete lack of driving skills and utter ignorance of traffic laws. I have seen much more aggressive drivers, on both coasts of the US, Europe, the Middle East, and others. Lawless drivers in Kenya(demolition derby anyone?), India, Mexico, and many other places. We have had 4 hit-and-run accidents and more parking lot damage(nobody leaves a note) since moving to Vancouver than in any place I have lived and I have lived in 12 different states in the US. I would have been in many, many more accidents here without the defensive driving skills I have been lucky enough to develop. I also had to retire after an unlicensed, uninsured asshole driving a dump truck, ran a red light, t-boned me and left me in the hospital for 6 months, lucky to be alive. I am still recovering after multiple surgeries, staph MRSA infection and various joint replacements. It's such a shame and so dangerous that people can't take driving seriously enough to properly learn how to and improve their driving skills! It's obviously way to easy to get a driver's license in Canada.
ICBC should 100% do an investigation and take a paint sample from both vehicles to see if they match where the damage occured. They have the license plate # and the identity of the driver. With that much evidence i feel like they are obligated to do so.
Hello, I am the victim in this situation. From what VWD said, that was what I was told by my ICBC Adjuster when we were first discussing the claim. I did not hear back since then, but the other day I received a call from my adjuster stating that the driver still did not admit fault, does not know what they're talking about. They ultimately decided to waive my deductible after all, which is good to hear. But it's ridiculous how I have all of this proof, yet nothing much is going to happen to the driver. Just thought I would explain the result of the situation.
it's because they have a monopoly, only insurance company in the province, so they can do whatever they want... or don't want and the onus has always been on the victim.
@@zacklin7129 thanks, I just saw this and was wondering what the outcome of it was.
ICBC won't lift a finger to do their job other than to read from the official ICBC book of excuses on why they aren't going to do their job. 20% of ICBC needs to lose their jobs to send the message that corruption won't be tolerated.
Can we all agree ICBC is a horrendous company
1:38 in this case, and it's happened to me. ICBC had the person who I gave the license plate for and made them come in so they could look at the vehicle and confirm that the damage was their fault. I didn't even have video proof, but they took measurements of the vehicles to make sure it lines up. Also, if they don't come in when summoned, it is usually ICBC who sides with the person claiming the damage.
Right, if you are lucky to get a new ICBC employee that hasn't been poisoned by the ICBC water cooler. Same logic I used and ICBC said "we can't assume they are guilty by asking them to come in to prove they are not". F'ing limp wristed lefties.
These videos should be sent to local police if a license plate is visible. Warnings and possible fines/tickets are needed to teach people a lesson because most are never properly trained to drive properly!!
I've forwarded some to police. Most get ignored. It's not a priority for them. We need a dedicated system that allows simple uploading or linking of video files while filing a complaint.
Canadian police ignore and don't want public input. It diminishes their authoritahhhh
Cops can’t make any money by dealing with dashcam cases. Cops love to spam speeding tickets because it means $$$. If you think cops should serve the public? You are absolutely wrong.
Jackson needs to ask for another adjuster. The video clearly shows a collision.
Nope, won't help, they all drink from the same poisoned chalice. ICBC is as corrupt as they come. It would make a great undercover detective thriller action drama movie though and Vancouver would get to play Vancouver but knowing our luck they'd film it in NYC.
7:50 The pedestrian should've waited. The light was about to change.
You can do an entire show based on Richmond drivers literally.
You could do an entire show based in just one Richmond parking lot. They have no concept of a world existing around them. I drive now, good luck everybody else.
Always follow the 'four flash rule'.... If your signal can't flash four times in view of the other driver you are trying to get in front of, you should be getting in behind them. (Four flashes creates the time and space for them to react).
And if you have missed your safe opportunity to be in the lane you wanted, go around and come back the other way...
I completely agree with the icbc 0art.havent happened to me, but I have listened to a lot of stories like that.
0:30 also looked like a rolling stop. At 7:45 I also think the pedestrian is at fault. Civic pretty much completed his turn before the pedestrian even stepped on the road. 9:45 looks like the red sedan just ignored the stop sign completely
This is why I hate driving anywhere in Richmond. It’s such a stressful time. Love your vids keep up the good work!
Why is this called Only in Richmond. There’s footage from all over.
For the hazard signal situation, it seems like the car on the right might have a flat and is using their spare tire. Its usually a good idea to use hazard to let others know you cant drive at the required speed
I have only been in Vancouver for ten years but I learnt within six months to avoid Richmond like it's Chernobyl. These people (we know which) should given a lifetime transit pass upon passing their drivers test instead of a driver's licence. Highly recommend the use of a dashcam
if traveling thru Richmond.
2:12 I really hope he takes this to the news! Wow caught red handed on camera! and @ICBC wont do anything.
7:46 100% pedestrians fault! Stop hand means BYLAW stop walking and dude didn't even walk in the lines... #Provemewrong
100% pedestrian in Ash's dashcam vid, clear he was running and made his own cross walk. I bet the guy does the same on his bike and in his car.
Downtown Vancouver is a mess; I can literally watch a line of cars drive through red lights at intersections.
2:30 I am pretty sure Jackson's case was "initially" led to believe a "hit and run" case on the first call, hence the deductible, however, it won't be the case once the video/license plate is presented to ICBC. It takes some time for ICBC to receive the video and ICBC, I am guess, may have said "you MAY have to pay the deductible" as you just can't draw a conclusion before the investigation. 7:45 Ash, definitely pedestrians fault. a. He is not in the pedestrian lane. b. Pedestrian light just turn with flashing hand - no crossing. c. The vehicle is not able to do anything to avoid contact. *My personal opinion only.
You really think too highly of ICBC. ICBC is lazy and corrupt. They spend more time coming up with excuses to do the work than actually doing the work. Don't look for logic when dealing with ICBC. Why do you think they went to a 'no-fault' system? Less work if everyone just pays. Duh.
I utterly hate driving in Richmond and avoid it at all costs.
Man, you really got my attention with that first clip. The amount of U-turns are so dumb..go up to the next intersection and take a left, why do people risk it all to save a few seconds. Happened to me two days in ago in Chinatown too. Florida plate driving super slow down Pender (ok fine, you're a tourist) and then signals and turns left in the middle of the road...
I know if they wait 5-10 seconds it could save them thousands of dollars
I used to drive on the highway with my hazards on because my work vehicle ('91 silverado) wouldn't go over 70km/h.
WHAT? he had a dashcam of the hit and run! all my parents had was just a picture of the damage to our car before, with their phones when they returned to their car to find a scratch and ICBC paid everything for our H&R case, why would they not pay it when this is even better and more evidence than we had????
One of your best yet. Amazing how these people are still alive...
Amusing, but not surprising. Vancouver driving started to circle the toilet bowl in the 80's ....I hate to say it, but this really began with the influx of Hong Kong residents leaving the colony before China took it back. I lived for year sin Vancouver riding an old Harley with crappy brakes, but I had learned long before that she lesson that all driver's want to target me exclusively, that has kept me alive. When living in N Burnaby in the early 90's a friend was visiting and his Chevy Blazer was hit by a driver who was stopped by his air bags going off...when the police arrived I overheard the conversation: RCMP: "how did you hit this vehicle? the street is well lit, there is a full moon and very few parked cars" Young Asian driver: "I only got my license two weeks ago, I don't know how to drive yet"....about two weeks after that the Richmond licensing office scam hit the papers over Asian drivers paying for a driver's license, without taking any tests. I moved away in the 90's and never wanted to live there again, and I was born there.
you guys need to do one on the bad drivers of Quesnel BC
I have found in Vancouver the crosswalks can be the most dangerous places to be even when you cross in the correct manner. 4 near misses in 4 years.😒
There are lawyers that take those cases icbc won't cover pro bono especially if there is dash cam footage. My buddy even got depreciated value paid for.
I had a hit a run but the only way they agreed to get the other person pay for it was because there was a witness.
I dont see why ICBC wouldn't just see the video. Ridiculous
Yeah I'm not surprised that a local paving company tried to get out of paying a fine. Some paving companies in the lower mainland are so notorious for racking up fines due to dumb workers and a lack of professionalism, so they're very much used to these kinds of ordeals. That said, having worked with many of them, there are some downright amazing paving companies run by really decent people.
7:41, yes, I agree... Pedestrian is at fault for two reasons. One, he's not in the crosswalk, but more importantly, he's crossing when he's not supposed to start crossing. The hand is saying "STOP", not "Come here". lol
8:41 I'm guessing the cammer is n/b Granville at 57/park. The SUV took a risk after the protected-left was lost. it goes protected left, 3sec protected yellow, 2-3sec unprotected green before n/b traffic gets the green. SUV is wrong.
As much as I love your explanation for 4 ways. 4 ways are actually emergency lights. Saw it today on a ford pickup driving 70 or 80 on the highway from surrey back to chilliwack.
Yes, clearly as in I had to emergency 'park' here because. I call also call them "park anywhere you want lights".
East Van represent!
The hit and run, maybe the adjuster was a friend of the I know I had that happen to me I found out years later for my brother-in-law who is also an adjuster that they were just praying I didn't push the issue
That's when you file a lawsuit. ICBC will soon settle case case. Corruption is rife in ICBC. I used to work there and saw it al the time. People who had friends working for ICBC getting preferential treatment.
One of the main reasons that I will be leaving Richmond in the near future. The even increasing stress and diminishing courtesy of others.
ever
I had a lady back into me in a parking lot. She denied it, I had it on camera, ICBC made her pay my deductible. Only difference was I was in my vehicle when it happened.
Ya but if they have the person and license plate it really shouldn't matter. Turns out ICBC is paying this guy's deductible so happy ending after all
@@vancouversworstdrivers glad to hear they are paying. I thought it was wierd they said no to begin with.
3:55 - 4:11 "I didn't mess up, I just have a strict "no parking next to peasants" policy"
(..I'll be honest, I think that's the reasoning behind like, half the horrible driving decisions Greater Vancouver Area drivers make in general )
2:06 same incident happened to me before. So what does ICBC actually do? 😡
The more I look at it..., quicker I will be diagnosed with cancer and brain tumor... lol
i've traveled the world and this driving we have in vancouver is very specific
Pedestrian is at fault, he isn't in the crosswalk and the crossing signal light for him is dont walk. He's 100% fault.
3:41 That's actually denman by the Joe Fortay's Public Library- not Richmond, but eh.
Thanks!
if there is a video proof ICBC need to take it as 100%. Or take them to court and make it visible on news
yoshi was definitely wrong for not knowing how to set the time on his cam lol im joking but really, set the time
I noticed some dashcams if they are off for a few days the time is completely off and need to constantly be reset
Interesting to know that ICBC doesn't quantify crash and trafic violations based on race or gender. They are worried they will see a pattern and have to do something about it, which would mean preventing a bunch of ppl from driving.
But they have no problem charging my demographic (young men 18-25) like double insurance rates based on false statistics when they refuse to actually do any studies.
Love watching your videos and have some close calls in the city of Vancouver this year !
Can I ask your opinion on decent quality / prices front / rear dash cam ? You seemed to know a lot and thought I’d ask
Any info would help ! Thanks :)
I won’t drive in Richmond, most of the people who live and drive there have no idea of what they are doing. There was a ring of driving schools and a few ICBC road testers would pass people if they paid them. True story this included truck driving schools to, they tracked down like 90% of the truckers that went to the schools and re tested them 3/4 failed. Be careful out there
I'm in Atlantic Canada but when I was in an accident the other guys insurance company paid 100% due to him being at fault.
I think most of these bad drivers are mainland Chinese who used to drive their ways in China, then after came here still keeping old bad habits
We need to break up ICBC. Abandon them all together.
And bc ferries for that matter
3:04 - You can tell just how frustrated that lady on the right is with that bad driver.
2:37 made me burst out laughing
5:20 for me
You realize a lot of those drivers shouldn’t be on the road....if there are ways to keep them off the road...if only...
7:45 Red hand is already up. Pedestrian 100%. Oh and I owe you a dozen emails or so of videos.
Most pedestrians ignore 'the red hand' to stop... they'll just walk across the street, even if the light turns yellow... and even when there are vehicles trying to turn! a huge pet peeve of mine!
Ya man send them!
The instant replay isn't necessary, there are video controls if I want to see it again.
Believe it or not, there was a time when Vancouver drivers were some of the best on the roads. It's only in the past 20 to 25 years that things have deteriorated this badly. Nowadays it seems as if there was a mass lobotomy.
The clip at 7:02 isn't in Vancouver thats in burquitlam by the lougheed mall
I just refer to metro Vancouver. Thanks for watching
@@vancouversworstdrivers oh okay.
It’s a freakshow out there lol
Also why do police do nothing about people using their phone while driving, i thought Victoria was awful but seriously its so much worse over here
How do these people even get a license?!?! 🤯
Richmond BC. Where one can buy a driver's license and a citizenship card all in one stop.
You could a years worth in Richmond yet the insurance rates are lower there
if i got a dollar every time i had to pull a 5:56 in Vancouver id be in a g-wagon by now
😅
Other day I saw a lady pass up a 3 way stop didn't even bother looking or stopping smh plus she was turning in into a school zone need a dash cam never know with crazy drivers like her
WRONG!!!!!!!! It's all over in greater Vancouver already, not ONLY in Richmond.....those Axx Hxxx!!!!!
The worst thing about car in BC is there.
1, the worst drivers are here in the Lower Mainland, not all, but a good percentage.
2, ICBC, this province allows for one major car insurance company to control this province and market is beyond pathetic.
ICBC needs to go!
The motor vehicle act does not apply to anyone from Richmond or any other country as they have absolutely no interest in the laws governing the roads in this province, also, 99% of all drivers in Richmond and countries should be driving with there hazards on because that is exactly what they are!
7:51 the pedestrian is in the wrong, not because he was not in the crosswalk, but because the pedXing light has already clearly turned to the red hand - which indicates the pedestrian MAY NOT BEGIN CROSSING. (yes that is what the law says!) - Motor Vehicles Act -
Pedestrian controls
132 (1) When the word "walk" or an outline of a walking person is exhibited at an intersection by a pedestrian traffic control signal, a pedestrian may proceed across the roadway in the direction of the signal in a marked or unmarked crosswalk and has the right of way over all vehicles in the intersection or any adjacent crosswalk.
(2) When the word "walk" or an outline of a walking person is exhibited at a place other than an intersection by a pedestrian traffic control signal, a pedestrian may proceed across the roadway in the direction of the signal and has the right of way over all vehicles.
(3) When the word "wait", the words "don't walk" or an outline of a raised hand are exhibited at an intersection or at a place other than an intersection by a pedestrian traffic control signal,
(a)a pedestrian must not enter the roadway, and
(b)a pedestrian proceeding across the roadway and facing the word "wait", the words "don't walk", or an outline of a raised hand exhibited after he or she entered the roadway
(i) must proceed to the sidewalk as quickly as possible, and
(ii) has the right of way for that purpose over all vehicles.
Jackson's case is what happens when there is monopoly in the market and the one company has to pay bith parties.
There should be alternative to ICBC in BC.
This is not Richmond. We don't have a 96th Ave, pluslots of the building are nowhere to be seen in Richmond.
Yes our drivers are crappy, but don't add the Surrey Drivers in the mix.
One Word For Jackson.... LAWYER.
@7:55, Pedestrian should be the one at Fault, he was way out of the Protected Zone. However if he were hit the Vehicle Driver would be the one Blamed, cause Pedestrians are so Coddled, they think they can do no wrong
@8:31 God Damn Bike Lanes, they certainly contribute to Traffic Jams, and Longer Commutes,
Vancouver is loaded with bad drivers, But honestly come to Kamloops.....it will blow your mind.
I've been to the Looops a couple of times fortunately I just walked most of the time
In case with a Jackson, camera, unfortunately, does not record the fact of the scratch, that might be the cause why ICBC refused a claim. (you cannot see clearly a minivan touching a bumper)
Hello, I am the victim in this situation. From what VWD said, that was what I was told by my ICBC Adjuster when we were first discussing the claim. I did not hear back since then, but the other day I received a call from my adjuster stating that the driver still did not admit fault, does not know what they're talking about.

@@zacklin7129 All the best with your case, I hope it will get sorted out!
@@zacklin7129 Car cam did pay off.
0:50 Holy crap that was close!
2:37 Guess it's law suit time.
4:10 Reminds me of work. I've had to page people several times for parking in an aisle. You'd think they'd think something was wrong when the parking spots are paved but the aisle isn't.
DOes transit authorities do something if they watch those videos or they are just for our fun?
icbc biggest scammers out there. what happens when a monopoly runs your insurance
All roads construction lol
I hope the guy in the first clip got caught, or someone called on him. He could've easily been arrested for reckless driving, and public endangerment! he could've hit, and possibly killed someone in the process!
ICBC has been pulling that crap since '90s. Refuse to pay even with videos, photos and confessions.

Drunk driving and people who are drunk
Weird... what is it that makes Richmond drivers so bad at driving?
Is there a specific reason for this that anyone has determined?
It's a huge issue in Richmond. It has a very large Asian population and most of them pay to get their driver licenses. Claim they can't speak English and insist on an Asian tester. Then out comes the infamous red envelope to get them to pass them. It's very well known.
55% populated by Chinees drivers!
Stereotypes exist for a reason Richmond...
Savages driving. Icbc needs to de voted out.
which dashcam do you use?
3:13 we we’re rushing home Cuzz I needed to use the bathroom really bad
I’m not joking that was me my uncle driving
We are forced to buy vehicle insurance, and when the time comes to put a claim in, some drag it on for months, refuse to pay when it's clear who was at fault or come up with whatever excuse to deny. It's disgusting.
People who cause an accident, and then blame the other driver, are scum .
7:46 totally pedestrians fault. Driver sees no one at the crosswalk, then that guy dashes across while not using the crosswalk...driver is not a mindreader.
Insurance company is not on your side, no matter where you are, right or wrong.
True! Why we need to get rid of ICBC...at least private insurance companies won't try and screw over their customers on a regular basis
9:48 maybe it was the lady I saw she had a red car also 🤣🤣
where is Kyle's headlights....
Quite simple with the pedestrian. The hand is there for you to finish crossing the street, or start crossing the street. Crosswalk or not pedestrian is at fault
Vancouver is bad. Lower mainland is bad. Not JUST richmond
pedestrian is totally at fault. Red hand MEANS STOP STARTING TO CROSS. they do this to allow cars to start making the turn. Pedestrians keep crossing, police need to start giving out more J walking tickets for this. easy money.
