Holy crap..
I used to call my toddler Danger Magnet. Looks like that nickname would suit you too!
good idea, and nice video...although I would have to agree that you are a little heavy on the horn lol
I don't think you were on the horn enough! I would have been worse lol.
Those were some ridiculous drivers!!
We kind of already have a bad drivers dashcam thread. http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/sh...t-their-finest
Nice horn work! Some idiot drivers out there. Was that over a week or longer?
damn.... i need a dash cam for the kind of stuff i see
also i thought i used the horn too much ... although i commend your use of the horn. Even if it is something that is seemingly normal for toronto.
Also what dashcam is that?
What the hell was the first person doing? And where they going to get out? It looks like they opened there door. Also, I wouldn't of trusted going beside that person that kept changing lanes :P
Nice horn work! You maybe a danger magnet indeed. :chuckleQuote:

We're not so different than Russia after all
For what it's worth I think your horn use was totally justified.

Lol i just knew that new charger with big chrome wheels would do something like that LOL^
This is not my video, but I don't want to make a new thread for the same thing
This civics driving is crazy and is starting to suck the fun out of driving for me, but you can tell the camera car driver appears to be good because of the safe distance he kept from the mazda infront or he would have been involved.

Gonna upgrade my dashcam (video will be 10x better :)).
ITRONICS ITB-100HD 1080P Full HD w/ GPS - $179.99 w/free ship:

Deal courtesy of RFD. Really good reviews. Was going to order this many months back on eBay for roughly the same price, but the manufacture made all the eBay sellers pull their listing (price too low for oversea customers) to keep their distributor license. After that the price of the unit shot-up for a long time $2XX+.
wow...Quote:

That car is an Infiniti not a mazda. how does this suck the fun out of driving this is just an intersection accident...Quote:

I need to get a dash cam, watched 2 vehicles cut over into the carpool lane on solid lines this morning, the first one was lucky there was room so the guy properly in the lane could swerve around him.
People who don't look or signal peeve me off.
I've had my cam for a few weeks now and nothing exciting has happened. I used to see dumb crap all the time. Now nothing.
it's a stupid people protection device...I like it :P mine has been like that tooQuote:

In your video, it appears you turned into the far right lane from your left hand turn.Quote:

you are correct I didn't notice that the first time...however even if he had have gone into the left lane and then signaled properly into the right...I feel like there was still enough time for this to happen.Quote:

If I did so correctly and with the same speed, the same thing would have happened.
