wow, CA drivers are nothing compared to these

Is it common for these jaywalkers to take their sweet time and thinking they own the road, expecting the drivers to stop on a dime for them????

It looks like at least a couple of fatalities. I still don't understand why they blow their horn though. As if that is going to change the fact they are going to collide. I guess its just a heads up saying were screwed.

I think the horn blowing and crash sounds were edited into the video.

main types of accidents:
-red light runners
-BLIND drivers (yes i see you in front of me, let me speed up and tap you, hard.)
-speeding (not enough space, slam on brakes and hit car in front)
-pedestrian Jay-walkers (let me run in front of traffic, or let me run into the SIDE of this moving vehicle)

I had to laugh. Not sure how you just walk into a car like that, even under the influence.

@ 1:38 the car just kept going.
