Not a dash cam as I wasn't driving but on the bridge over the river sw Henday this am...

For summer on Saskatchewan Drive they close off one of the lanes and turn it into a bike lane (which I think is a great idea)
I saw this guy driving UP (it’s also a one way !!!) and I thought it was hilarious.

Video taken Aug 10 around 9pm.

Happened a couple days ago on the Henday. It’s crazy to me that a tanker this big would perform such a move at 100 km/h.

Started with a guy coming over from the merge to the center lane so close that I had to brake not to hit him. Next was a truck doing the same move to the vehicle infront of me. There was a also a guy who drifted into my lane beside me but the dash cam couldn't see it. The last was an old guy in a truck that doesn't seem to understand what a stop sign means. Pardon the crack, caught a stone the other week and it keeps spreading.

Let's exit early, across a solid line into my path.

This goes back to February. Dark, rainy and there's a guy driving with no lights. I flashed my lights to try and tell him to turn his on. He then changed lanes into a turn lane and bounced over the curb on the other side of the turn. Never did turn his lights on.

98 Ave west at the James M bridge.

This is a consistent near miss spot due to the merging traffic proceeding without attempting to smoothly enter the flow of traffic.

The right lane continues into a new lane on the bridge, while the left merges into an existing lane.

So I wanted to make a left turn here, and because of the car in front of me who also wants to turn left, I couldn't see the oncoming traffic. Dashcam footage seems wide but idk from the driver's seat it wasn't visible to my eye. I couldn't see far enough from where I was and the obstacle (car in front of me). And I think the car behind me had more vision and could see far into the oncoming lanes. Not mad at the honk but want to know if my positioning was wrong hence no vision or it just happens and one just has to wait it out ? Thank you.

2 cars going at it at the ramp entering anthony henday. Never a dull moment. So many speeders, erratic, dangerous drivers out there…you really have to be aware of your surroundings. Moved here from Manitoba and I’ve never seen so many damn accidents! It’s scary!

Approached the traffic circle on 101 St, turned my left turn signal on. As I was about to enter the traffic circle when it was safe to do so, driver of the Acura cuts across the solid white line into my lane, had to slam on my brakes and lay on the horn. Missed me by inches.

*Edit: Without the camera bring able to see to the left where traffic was approaching, it's deceptive as to how much space there was between cars. So no, there weren't like 5 opportunities to safely go. I admit it does look like there was one opportunity that I could have entered the traffic circle if I really floored it. One of the cars, which again you can't see till it enters the frame, was coming around a bit hot before it slowed to exit, so I decided to wait. I realize that won't convince the naysayers and any delaying them justifies dangerous driving. And smh to some of the driving "tips" here: treat it as a merge, push up onto the crosswalk, just floor it on a yield. Thanks for the comments in any case though. I had a good laugh.

Why can’t people wait man
