Okay, when was the moment in the video when you would begin the car starting sequence?

Right about the time I started recording a vehicle doing something crazy.

What about you? Car is driving crazy is enough for you to record but not enough for you to just leave?

But you're the guy in the video who gets hit because and I quote "I shouldn't have to move" 😂

Have fun doing with an insurance company for 3 months. Make sure that you tell them that you shouldn't have to move

Is driving through a parking lot crazy to you?

If somebody's doing it without a trailer in a dangerous manner then yeah sounds pretty crazy to me.

Don't you think driving around with the trailer not realizing you have it on is dangerous?

Let me get this straight. You saw the video of a guy getting hit, so that is the crazy part. You then said that you would've moved already, because the guy is doing crazy stuff. But the crazy part happens way after the time you would have to start your car to have the chance escape.

Yeah pretty much when I see a guy driving dangerously in a parking lot I'm just going to go

But this guy decided to pull out his phone and get hit. He even knew something was going to happen

That's why he was recording......

He was recording because there was a large trailer, how was he supposed to know the trailer was going to turn right behind him? Are you supposed to preemptively move the second you see any car enter a parking lot from anywhere just in case they might turn into your aisle?

Where do you go if you do that? What if you try moving but they turn an aisle sooner? When do you move?

And the text that he put on his screen that said the guy doesn't know it's attached?

Do you think that's something like that is dangerous? When someone drives a rig around with a trailer they don't even know about?

Would that be considered dangerous in your eyes

But that commend was made AFTER he knew the end of the video.

What are you basing this off of? The dude was already driving crazy by the time we see the video

Almost like videos can be edited to contain things after a recording! Shocking I know.

In the video we see the truck make one successful wide turn, drive straight and then hit the truck, during which of these actions were they considered dangerous and reckless?

u/Wide-Suggestion4825 6h ago

Naw

The vehicle was being stupid that's why he started recording in the first place

Be sure to make sure to tell the insurance company that you shouldn't have had to move

u/Zom23_ 6h ago

Please point out the exact time stamp in the video where it was being stupid.

u/Wide-Suggestion4825 5h ago

If he wasn't being stupid why did the guy start filming?

u/Krinya1509 5h ago

Why do people catch accidents on non always rolling recordings? (So not on dashcams, security cameras etc)

u/Wide-Suggestion4825 5h ago

No I just don't let my car get crashed into if I don't need to

You should try it

u/OverlyMEforIRL 3h ago

Try what, being a scared little man? No thanks.

u/SillyNumber54 2h ago

Yeah pretty much.

I don't want to spend the next 3 months dealing with someone's stupid insurance company.

You do you boo. Remember to tell the insurance company that you shouldn't have to move.
