Damn shame that stupid people are allowed to drive and multiply. Hopefully your dad will be able to fully recover and sue the cow's ***. Beautiful looking 'runner, sure hope that it can be repaired.
They still teach drivers ed in high school, my son took the class.Damn man, I'm really glad your dad wasn't injured more than he was. I know you both are sick about the car.
The roads got tremendously more dangerous when the high schools stopped teaching driver's education. People are just clueless about how to drive. Or...they are ignorant about life in general, like the 15 year old in Washington state who took a relative's car for a joy ride and wanted to "mess" with a jogger by just "bumping" him from behind going 50 mph. Killed him
She should be going to jail for murder, but will be tried as a juvenile and be free at 21.
They still teach that in trqffic school....you follow your eyes especially if your drunk. "ooh, pretty red lights off the side of the road!"Damn, hate to see that, hope your dad is okay.
I still remember my Drivers Ed. instructor saying " you steer towards what your looking at, keep your eyes on the road "
I had a reason for asking that question above. I was traveling down a country road and saw a red light off the road. I was traveling in my lane and at the last second I saw a guy standing there. I swerved and missed him turned around and stopped . I inform them that the guy standing at the rear of the car was blocking the view of the tail light that was in my lane.
Maybe that dumb *** lady couldn't see the car because that dumb *** passenger was blocking the lit tail light. The hazard lights could have looked like a blinker. ????????. A flare or red safety reflectors might have saved that Road Runner. But driving from a car show who would keep such an item in the car .
We called that "Object Fixation" in Sky Diving class.
Best wishes to you and you Dad.
That said, I strongly suggest everyone getting a dash cam that has both front and rear cameras. I know I won't drive without one.
Depends on the camera and how it is powered, mine plugs into a 12v socket so it can be live constantly.would it be recording in this situation?
not being a smart alec, but really, what are the parameters?
the car was probably not running, and who knows if the ignition was in accesory mode or not
You in Pa Too? I commute between reading and Harrisburg and yes most but not all of the stupid stuff on the highway is women. That is at least a 30-40 thousand dollar car and they'll say "you have insurance don't ya...?" it would have been difficult for me to keep my temper if that was my car...Sorry that really hurts! I live in PA and the women are fat stupid ugly cigarette smoking scanks that can't stop texting while they tailgate you.
sucks about Dad and the Mopar. Thankfully it wasn't worse..Yep< I was driving around much of yesterday. I watched multiple women run red lights and pull out in front of people. the have their hands free cell phone so their mouth is going a mile a minute and they cant drive and talk.
It all depends on your setup. A lot of the better dash cams will automatically record if they detect either an impact and/or motion picked up by the camera. The dash cam I run has impact and motion sensing that is hard wired (always has power) so it monitors the car 24/7. I will say this, do your research when it comes to dash cams. Some of the supposed better names are not the best, IMO.would it be recording in this situation?

that woulda pimmeoff. I brake for any animal in the road, birds squirrel etc. They are just trying to live too...sucks about Dad and the Mopar. Thankfully it wasn't worse..
ALOT of folks caint chew gum an walk. They damn sure don't need a phone while they're driving. I see it all the time in Tampa. Just gets me pissed off driving to work. This basterd ran down a whole family of Mallards while I was blocking traffic for them..... people, it seems, these days, generally kinda suck...
Thanks Bro. It did. I almost hopped the median and chased his *** down. I wanted to smash his **** w/ a framing hammer .. I WAS PISSED..still am..Thank God my Gal and coworker started yelling at me... I gotta drive by there 2x every day, and the evidence is still there. Even in torrential downpoursthat woulda pimmeoff. I brake for any animal in the road, birds squirrel etc. They are just trying to live too...
