To give you some context so I don't look completely retarded:


It was overcast and rainy, traction is less than optimal. This is a 45MPH road and I was behind another vehicle going 35 (as you can see in the bottom left of the video), so I wasn't speeding. As soon as the light turns yellow I see the SUV is passing everyone and assume he is going through the light as he has plenty of room. I look over my shoulder to make sure it's safe to pass and by the time I look back up I see he has stopped and I have a split second decision to try and get out of slamming into this guy going 40 mph

Also please note this guy was stopped for a solid 2 seconds from 0.06 to 0.08 while the light is still yellow. I promise I'm not a red light runner just me incorrectly assuming someone would SAFELY go through a yellow as did everyone else. At the end of the day though it was my fault for assuming so drive safe and dont be like me

Not even going to lecture you because we all do silly mistakes like this. Clearly, you're defo in the wrong and you damn well know it but luckily, no damage was done by some fairly quick thinking after a long thonk moment where you decided to keep on accelerating whilst you see mr Suv driver break for an extended period.

Congrats on not dying though

That part looks retarded only because I was looking over my shoulder to make sure I wasnt cutting everyone off by the time I looked back up he was almost at a dead stop. Everyone else made it through fine no reason for him to stop but yeah it was my fault for assuming.

Makes sense I'd avoid getting stuck at a red light with that wrap.
