I see so many YouTube videos of people running blatantly red lights and getting in accidents or other videos of people stopped and gunning it backwards, hitting something, then they put it in drive and launch full speed forwards and hit something else. What is going through these peoples mind? I just don’t get how there is such a high quantity of these videos.

    Yes. People get so used to driving that they react poorly in new situations (like tunnel vision but on a grand scale). Driving became a chore and muscle memory to them.

    The thing with driving though is it is very dynamic, you can’t simply half ass your way through it forever.

    One of the first things I learned when getting my motorcycle license was to treat every driver as a threat, and I’ve applied that to my driving as well.

    Just remain vigilant and aware while driving.
