    Oooh look, another mod.....

    Bro, that's nothing. I drive to work Mon-Fri around 6:30-ish. During the winter months, it stays dark until almost 7:45am. Every-Single-Day I encounter 1 or 2 cars without HEADLIGHTS on. Some are totally off, but most are drivers with the DRL's on (but that means no rear lights).

    At least that guy had head lights on, so you could drive defensively near him. Image if a dark car was driving at night with no lights, then pulled out in front of you.

    Definitely could have been worse. That intersection is notorious in this area. I had my eyes on that guy well before I slowed down for that truck.

    Sure would have sucked to hit that dude going 60 mph. Driver side too. Not sure he would have made it… Made sure to use a healthy dose of the horn as I passed. Maybe they will be a little more cautious next time.

    Nothing wakes you up like some narrowly avoided manslaughter at 6am

    I moved earlier this year and my commute went from 7kms to 30kms with highway driving. After two days of driving in the winter on the highway I bought a Wolfbox dashcam. Something I should have done sooner. It is absolutely shocking to see how some people drive.

    Never post evidence on the internet or discuss an accident. No matter how minor you think it is.

    I feel better about having dash cams (Front in Rear in all my vehicles that I installed this year), but now I have to worry about someone disputing it might be AI.
