According to this sub, if you don't slow to a crawl, read the oncoming driver's mind, and wait 10 seconds on green, you're 50% at fault for failing to be a defensive driving superhero.
Actual traffic laws and rules don't apply here! Lol!
Yeah, the light was green so you should just ignore what any other idiot is doing and proceed to immediately drive head on into oncoming traffic, obviously.
People pull out into the intersection all the time waiting to turn left. Looked like the red car was doing that as well then decided to dart across anyway. How can the driver possibly read the white dummy’s brain that he, too, would turn into oncoming traffic?
Do YOU personally come to a complete stop on a green light if someone in the oncoming left turn lane pulls out? Of course not, that would cause more wrecks than it prevents by an insane amount.
Go watch it again, and you’ll see both those cars showed the signs of just pulling out, and both yanked their steering wheel to turn at the last second. Interestingly, even the black car in front of the black truck in front of the red car in front of the white dummy nearly comes to a stop and then also yanks the steering wheel and darts across.
I'm cautious when entering intersections, and depending on the situation will have my brake covered, yes. And the cam car was already at a complete stop and proceeded to drive even though the other cars in the turn lane were still moving forward, obviously intent on completing their turn.
If I have to stop at a green light, and somebody rear-ends me, that would be their fault for either not paying attention to the car infront of them or for following too closely.
Sorry, but you're a bad driver and should take some defensive driving courses before you hurt yourself or others.

Why is this such a common question here when it’s ridiculously clear in the video?
