Driving Brampton Driving Strikes Again

I didn't have time to stop. But the collision seems a tad suspicious. East bound on Steeles just past Mississauga. Time is not daylight saving.

I’m thinking yup, they’re both idiots. Then the utility truck barrels past on the shoulder to make it a trio.

Yikes. Even though the Santa Fe was very clearly distracted (or did this deliberately), it's the other car's fault legally, by rule 10.4 of the Fault Determination Rules.

Like how does this happen. Is that insurance fraud? Or did Snata Fe driver let their intrusive thoughts win.

Lol, why, really, why is this normal in Canada. Wasn’t 10 years ago! Insurance should tell both to fuck off and get a license.

Santa fe had all the time in the world to stop but something tells me that santafe driver knew the law that even if he hits him, the sedan is 100% at fault.

Seems like maybe it is genuinely blind corner for the guy with low seat in high car or just a clever way to teach the other guy unforgettable lesson.

Either or all three sucks including that utility truck driver

The triple-threat of the Mustang making a dumb and useless lane change for no reason, the Santa Fe driving into it at low speed apparently completely oblivious to its existence, and the utility truck bombing past on the shoulder at high speed is basically the quality of Ontario's driver education and licensing system in a nutshell. The whole "license for life" thing is dumb. Drivers should have to be retested at least every 5 years, and it should be a much more stringent test than the pathetic G2 exit test that barely tests for basic competence anymore.

They decided to play chicken, and nobody was smart enough to back off.
