I don’t know how this happened. But very often people cut in at the last second to make a turnoff and it is scary how close they come to crashing. Sad thing is you can see a baby stroller in the trunk. I hope a child wasn’t in the vehicle at the time of the [...]

Car on it’s side
You can click here to see on Google Maps where it occurred. Driving here just wears you down. There are so many selfish, aggressive, non-attentive, distracted, dangerous drivers. You cannot make even the shortest journey without having to avoid at least one idiot hauling up to your rear bumper and flashing lights to pass or [...]
Dangers of Texting While Driving
The link is via a CNN article (the CNN article has the wrong video link though, so I fixed it here. Though some places are passing laws only allowing hands-free talking while driving that isn’t enough. Studies have shown that a hands-free is just as distracting as holding the phone to your ear.

Driving home from work, Ahmadi to Fintas
Long wait at the light on the 212 compared to the driving time. One photo every four seconds on the way home from work. I’ll try more experiments with a faster frame rate. Scare having my lens out there in the wind. I did it with my 10.5 mm fisheye by the way on my [...]
Suburban roll over
It looks like it was going along the road turned the other direction and rolled over stopping on the fence. Note the dome light is still on. Suburban’s are tough! We had one and it was hit by a car a few years ago in Canada which went through a red light that they didn’t [...]
Crashed Vehicle
Sunday, November 02, 2008 9:53:59 PM I saw this in the lot by the police compound near the British Embassy. I think they keep the crashed vehicles for court cases or insurance settlements. I have not idea on what happened to the occupants.
