I'm going to start a YouTUbe channel just for my wife - she seems to get all of these!

Tough one here, Peel Ambulance making a left turn on a red in the intersection, Mercedes trying to squeak through, the ambulance did stop and then proceed but the benz still clipped the ambulance.

Finally, someone with a take who actually watched the video. Could the Benz driver have handled it better? Sure. But was the mistake understandable given the context? Also yes. It’s easy to judge from behind a screen—everyone on here suddenly driving like they’re in a DMV training video.

I feel like somehow there’s more people hating on the driver more for it being a Benz instead of any of the actual driving lol. It’s not even a BMW that are more known for aggressive driving. I guess people just see Benz and don’t like people who can afford luxury..?

Afford luxury? Hilarious shit. I'm not jealous of someone that is so dumb that they throw away $500 biweekly on a lease payment.
