    The amount of drivers that turn when they don’t have a clear view of what’s coming is mind boggling. Then there’s the idiots that can see but take off anyway! 😳

      Even if they have a clear view they still turn so, I reckon it's because a lot of people have tunnel vision they just look where there going and not where the threat is.

      @@michaelmcclown5593 Was trying to figure that one out. It's as if the cameras have a much wider field of view than people's eyes do, though I know it's more the other way around. On the camera you can see a lot of these accidents before they happen.

      Human eyes(if memory serves) have a horizontal FOV(field of view) of about 135 degrees, whereas most dashcams have a much wider FOV. But of course, the shit ones have a narrower FOV, which I don't recommend.
      "On the camera you can see a lot of these accidents before they happen."
      That's because we're watching these accidents in hindsight. I would assume some(if not all) of the drivers don't see everything that happens beforehand, depending on if the individual has good situational awareness or not.

    Situation awareness. Be aware of all vehicles around you, like a plane/ship radar. Anticipate their intentions. If you're in the far right lane, & there's an exit coming up. Someone merge into your lane. That means they're planning to exit.
    Avoid accidents, even if you have the right of way, dashcam, witnesses in your favor. Insurance is trying NOT to pay anyone. If your car is fixed, things will be slightly off by millimeters, like door seal, gaps between panels. Had a parking brake locking up after a guy T-bone me.
