WOW!!

Why do we call it a "near miss"? Wouldn't a more grammatically correct term be "near hit"?

 

[slamstrom]

Repost on the first video. The second video just sends chills down my spine.

Yes, let's use grammar correctly. Now, I have to go finish installing my "cold water" heater.:smile:

No wonder that Kangaroo got passed. He totally missed the apex of that turn.

But he did have a good lead for short period, while his pitstop exit was totally unsafe.

That is amazing he lived yet I don't feel sympathy for him that bus wasn't slowing down and it didn't look like the bicyclist was even paying attention. That bus was like probably a good 50 ft away traveling like at 30+ mph when the guy decides "hey! it's a great time to cross the road"

As for the video above I hope the guy who got t-boned survived and sue the living hell out of the idiot who ran the red light.

I'm confused as to how the car that bursts into flames even caught on fire? It barely even got hit and yet its like a death trap.....

It looks like the white pick-up's rear axle crosses over the hood of the car. If you notice the rear of the truck goes airborne . That's a good ( or bad ) hit. Plenty of gas lines/injectors plus electricity under the hood that probably got mashed to nothing. Could have also been the battery exploding from impact.

The guy is just lucky he was a few feet back or the fire would have been the least of his worries.
