These two clips from Dashcam Owners Australia prove that it's not enough to just pay attention to your own driving — you have to pay attention to what everyone else is doing, too. First up, a car crossed an intersection at the wrong time and hit another car head-on. The driver claimed to have been blinded by the sun, which is some excuse!

Next, while driving on the highway, one driver tried threading the needle while switching lanes, but ended up side-swiping two cars before speeding off. The accident is still under investigation, but thankfully there was a dashcam to capture the whole thing.

Accidents On The Road Are Never Pretty

Accidents On The Road Are Never Pretty

Accidents involving cars, trains, trucks and pedestrians are always ugly, no matter how minor or severe. In these three cases, they were pretty severe. A drunk driver came too fast around a bend and flipped his car, crashing right in front of a hospital. Next, a woman makes a bad call and crosses a crosswalk with a child in her arms, right as a bus comes plowing through. And last, a cement truck doesn't notice a train coming as it drives across the tracks. Luckily, everyone involved in these incidents is expected to make a full recovery, and the drunk driver is facing charges. View Now

Paraglider Takes Relaxing In The Sky To A Whole New Level

And now for your daily dose of "huh?" Paraglider Hasan Kaval has basically created a living room in the sky by fastening a couch, a TV and even a lamp to his parachute. Based on the guy's calm demeanor, you'd never guess he was soaring hundreds of feet up in the air — but then again, the level of chill required to kick back on a flying couch without a harness in the first place is probably pretty high.
