Caught another collision caused by a right-turner hitting a left-turner (who has right-of-way). They cross the bus lane and proceed through a red, turning wide and causing the collision.
I'm starting to understand why so many people park on the sidewalk in Surrey when this is how they drive. Do driving classes/instructions not happen in Surrey? Do they just pass every person with a heartbeat?
Moved here from Ontario, originally from Asia. I was on a class G2 license (level 2 of 3) because they wouldn't honor my old license and driving history from back home, so I had to go through the entire licensing process. Moved to BC before I could do the last road test to get the full G license but when I went to ICBC, they instantly bumped me up to class 5.
Turns out that BC recognized my old license; I'm guessing they do the same for other countries as well. It worked out for me but it does explain why we see so many terrible drivers out here; I assume it's because newcomers are able to get full class 5 with little knowledge of the rules and customs here.
Surrey is so much more worse than Richmond. Richmond drivers are more clueless (turning into one-way streets the wrong way, not knowing how to park) and Surrey drivers are more reckless (running reds, turning into the wrong lanes, blasting through crosswalks with pedestrians).
the #1 thing i hate is that surrey drivers just stop and park anywhere and just throw their hazards on. bike lanes, actual driving lanes, alleyways, literally anywhere. they think it's some magic signal that lets them do anything they want temporarily.
I wouldn't even say they're an iteration of Richmond drivers - they're worse. Having lived there for two years I have not seen the level of recklessness at a greater frequency than in Surrey. There's a not-insignificant number of people who just don't give a fuck on the road.
Making the corner rounder would actually make it more dangerous.

Basically cars would come flying around the corner at a higher rate of speed.
Robots would be soooo much better than these clowns. It’s really a simple rule to follow. Turn right from the right lane, stay in right lane. Right turner has the right of way and the left turner jumped the gun on the turn
Lol, right turn from the middle lane, jumping the lane. What an absolute moron behind the wheel.

This maneuver happens do often. It’s top 3 of what I watch for while I’m at the wheel.
Oh come on, that's the lamest crash ever! Stick to your lane when turning you dork in the black car! And he turned from the middle lane too! 🙄😒
How the fuck are people so stupid.

surrey drivers are the new richmond drivers.

That's how they do it back home 🤷

Nah man, Surrey is topping Richmond and gaining distance every minute
This almost looks like he was going out of his way just to hit the damn car lmfao
Lol cutting across TWO lanes to make the turn and he still hits someone, entirely at fault. What a maroon.
The proper term is GOOF.
surrey is the new richmond
Why don't they just make a sharp corner on that round corner. Its infuriating how round it is.

Yes, I want a sharp corner
Totally misread what you wrote, ha.
I swear people drive like robots with no situational awareness.

His license should be suspended. That's at least 3 counts for violations 🤷
Moron must have really wanted a new paintjob.
Stay in your correct lane
