I saw a head on collision based on the double assumptions that the other guy was going to stop. Broad daylight, summer, dry roads. Two cars parked across from each other on a normal suburban street.

The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

So straight-up 50/50 fault rather than the usual bit of people not understanding that they are at fault when they hit someone, while driving on the wrong side of the road. "I got there first" doesn't really apply.
Idiots…dangerous idiots.
Pathetic automatic scum.
Lead guy was solid on his use of blinkers but too late and too fast for people to do much. Probably smarter just to put hazards on so they knew something dumb was going to happen.
But this isn’t real so it’s all good right? (See disclaimer on bottom of screen)
Judging by the reaction of other drivers, I highly doubt this was a simulation. It's way too much work. Something with that time and skill would be getting paid to make videos, not making annoying videos.
It’s 100% real. They just think if they write it’s a simulation they won’t get caught…
big brain thinking…

Not driving.....
Fk it..... I'll leave it here.

While annoying…it’s an empty lot with almost no cars in the photo.
Do that during the day at a busy plaza and expect to get your car messed with.
Here…only people getting angry are Redditors.
This time. Anyone that parks like that is a menace. They have no idea where the corners of their vehicle are and when it isn't a wide open lot it will be bumper cars.
A lady in a newish Lexus with qc plates in barrie yesterday got in multiple fail to remain parking lot crashes at multiple stores. Entire side of lexus is caved in and she just keeps going with no concern.
Taken at almost exactly 4:00pm. What happens when 5:00pm hits and more people start moving around? Lot starts to fill up and this jerk is in the way.

I took a day off work to get my winter tires swapped onto the car. As I was heading over for my 7:30am appointment, I git stuck behind a car turning into a Timmies. I'm also signalling but to take the right turn lane that starts at that driveway, not the driveway itself. Someone decides I must also be turning into Tim's, rips out of the parking lot, and only a hard swerve to the left, across two thankfully empty lanes of traffic, saved my 3 month old car. No video, of course, because this took place right beside me.
Tim Hortons are a little piece of Brampton for the rest of us. There is a ton of bad driving near them. Ime, more bad driving than good driving.
Well this happened in Brampton, so Uber Timmie's.

I've had similar happen to me as well in the past, so even though (I think) you're supposed to put your signal on a half block in advance of your turn, I wait until I pass the last driveway/entrance before my turn if there's any chance of someone thinking I'm turning earlier. Right or wrong, I've also warned the rest of my family to do so as well.
It is not just timmies, many coffee drive throughs, specially in the morning, for many with smaller lots it often spills onto the road and creates complete chaos. Many people just can't function in the morning without the fix. Don't get me wrong, I like my coffee, but I also dislike participating in potential demolition derbys. The fix issue is also a problem on the TTC in the morning when packed, people with arms full of bags and laptops jugling and spilling their venti...

It doesn't show the parking spot(s) behind the truck on the other side of the aisle. If there is a vehicle parked in the spot directly behind the truck and two people are driving in the aisle in opposite directions, one of them has to stop and wait, probably the one who's lane is clear but the other arrived there a few nanoseconds earlier and claimed the wrong of way (because they're more important).
Street sweeper driver in Barrie crashes and gets a DUI. Street sweeper impounded.
I generally do that as well but in this case, the turn lane starts literally immediately after the driveway into the Timmies.

Putting a drivethru entrance close to the ramp seems to be a preferred option for TH. Here's one in Barrie that is always a cluster. As expected, 80% of the people turning right out of TH go directly to the left lane without looking or signalling. To add to the chaos, the right lane just past the TH driveway has a jersey barrier in it for the last month. Not sure how long it is staying there. There is a crash here at least once a week.I generally do that as well but in this case, the turn lane starts literally immediately after the driveway into the Timmies.
