I am sure this is the best of the best, However, this is truly incredible.
Does our society have not respect for others,
Lack of responsibility,
Maybe we really do have a drug problem in our country,
Cell phones, texting ?
Is robbery up in all of these slides, look like getaways.
I just reflected on the two bad accidents in my life, both 20+ years ago, Both other drivers blowing stop signs into my vehicle, totalling both vehicles. I miss that '68 WM300 Power Wagon.
I know thw white school bus was about to rear end the car because of inattention, but the slide and recovery into the next lane was sweet, plus he didn't hit anyone.
We go through life not thinking it can happen, because each of us sees it not at all, or infrequently at best.
Trouble is, every stop sign and every traffic light controlled intersection has the potential to nail us.
This string of horrors is pretty good to do a little reprogramming of the "threat computer"
Get the kids to watch, and do some coaching about where they need to look at these type intersections.
happy coaching!

The firetrucks both had sirens going and both always run red lights when they do. Obviously neither one heard the other and they couldnt see the other because of the building on the corner. That was the one that surprised me the most. But yes, the school bus made an amazing recovery. Some of the others are just nightmarish because there was no way the people could have survived. This is a WAKE-UP call! Thanks for posting it.
You think this is bad, just watch some of the Youtubes from Russia! Considering how many cars are on the road, I'm amazed we don't have more collisions. Good Luck, TomC
I wonder how many of those were texting or on the cell phone? Some of those shots looked like dash cams.
Amazing and scary.

Good thing we're driving buses...
