I'm trying to figure out if it's edited, but it looks real.

I've thought about whether that would be possible...but the guy is a total dumbass.

More like lucky lucky OTHER drivers. That guy was asking to get effed up. If it's real, it's scary, as the guy barely swerved until AFTER the crossing, but it does look a little credible as the van did seem to hit his brakes. How he saw it coming, unless a horn was blaring or something, I have no idea.

I'd say the sole reason that didn't turn into a mess was the reaction time of the dude in the green SUV.

I agree, but I bet his reaction time didn't prevent him from crapping his pants though.

No, but it did allow him to crap his pants before anyone else.

If you look closely...it almost actually looks like he clipped the guy's bumper. Maybe just enough to move the car a little, but not enough to spin either of them out.

Yeah...if you also look...the "crazy driver" is slamming his brakes before he heads into the intersection. It's almost as if his intention was to speed through, but then he chickened out, and then he decided to follow through after the other guy stopped.

Yeah, still, for the other guy to have noticed him, he must have had his horn blaring or had a damn loud exhaust. Sure, I look before I go through an intersection, but does anyone really expect some guy to barrel through at a right angle to you? Unless I happened to be checking out some hot chick in a car next to me, I'd have missed the guy.

Very amazing. Guy is stupid for driving so fast and luckily he didn't hit the cars or the pedestrians that were walking thru the intersection.

Seems like the green SUV clip the speeding car a bit or sratched the speeding car. IMO.

i thought i saw a grayish cloud of burned paint or something after the guy goes through the intersection. i think he actually hit the guy in the blue truck... either that or it's tire smoke.
