So many of these drivers made me physically cringe while just I’m sitting in my easy chair. Great video.

This is why I couldn't get a brush guard on my past trucks; I wouldn't have yielded and let them hit me.

Is this your video? I’d say you need a more convincing horn.

No. The guy goes by HaloMastermind117. He drives a Nissan Versa so thats part of the problem.
My Dart actually has a really loud horn and its gotten plenty of use.

RE: school bus @ 13:31 and following:
It varies from state to state.
In Michigan, oncoming traffic approaching the (flashing red) bus can only continue if the oncoming lane(s) are separated from the bus by a physical obstruction, such as a barrier/curb/median.

Yeah. In Virginia, unless it is a divided (by some sort of barrier or median) highway, you have to stop for a school bus. If there is a median or other barrier, opposing traffic doesn’t have to stop.

Amazing how many of these offenses are failures of basic driving skills. Red lights and stops signs are not rocket surgery, nor are they open to interpretation.
It’s shit like this that makes me appreciate undercover cop cars. If a nearby patrol car was visible, sure, the likelihood of drivers taking these kind of chances would be reduced. And that’s admittedly a good result.
But these are the kind of drivers who are comfortable pulling this kind of crap when a cop isn’t around. And it’s for that very reason that I’d like to see those red-and-blues light up “out of nowhere”. The possibility of a patrol-car-in-hiding would help keep drivers on their toes, too.
(It would also help if the cops in this video were more proactive...)

In Ohio, it is legal to continue on an opposing lane when on a multi (more than three) lane roadway. A school bus cannot offload kids where they would have to cross a multi-lane street.

Same, right of way and all that. Get an old 4x4 and a mean push bar and just let their insurance take the blows.
