What you are seeing is a Cuy Farm in a remote region in Ecuador. They are not bred for pets but for food. The American word for these are Guinea Pigs and are considered a traditional dish and delicacy.
The owner of this farm once visited me in the US. He made a trip to a local pet store. He came home that night with dinner. After a couple more trips back to the store, he was asked about why so many Guinea pigs.
He was banned from the store.

Wrong way driver heads down Route 5
A driver at the light decides to go straight and head down the wrong way on Route 5. You can clearly see the Do Not Enter sign.
Not sure what the driver was thinking. Maybe preoccupied or distracted with something.
Or perhaps this intersection design causes this sort of thing as the lanes split of to the right.

Bicycle rider almost takes out a pedestrian
A bicycle rider at the grocery store barely misses a customer walking out of the doorway.
I wonder who would be liable in this situation had the customer been injured.
The riders rode off seeming oblivious to what had just almost happened.

Guy clears snow by throwing into road and a mail truck snow violation
Clearing and throwing snow into the road is not only dangerous but is illegal.
Also, by law vehicles are expected to clear snow off of their cars.
Both of these type of violations are seen within seconds of each other after a snow storm
About Over the Road Videos:
Bad driving caught on my dashcam. Maybe even myself driving bad. Who knows?
I don't profess to be a great driver. We all have our moments. The hope of this is to raise awareness and learn from all of our driving habits and improve driving safety.
Happy Safe Driving!

Guy runs red light and then gets stuck in traffic
Driver was approaching the intersection and then witnesses a car in front of him that proceeds to run a red light.
He goes straight but not before putting his right turn signal on.
This is a "No Turn on Red" intersection so he decides to go straight though instead of turning right?
Impatient driver ends up stuck because traffic is building ahead.
He ends of waiting a few feet from the light he ran
Time saved? Risks taking?

Drawbridge over Mystic River rises up for passing vessels.
Nice day to watch the drawbridge rise and lower allowing passage of ships and boats.
Located in Mystic CT
Considered a balanced bridge because it is perfectly balanced with a counterweight that effortlessly lifts and lowers the span.
Originally opened in 1922 this bridge spans 218 feet and weighs 660 tons.

Tractor trailer squeezes through and damages signs
In this dashcam video, we see a tractor trailer broken down in the left lane at the traffic light.
Other motorists are forced to go around him including another tractor trailer.
We can see in the video how close the squeeze was.
Look how close tho the signs the trucker is on the right side.
He actually hits and damages them as he slides on by.
You can see how the signs are now discombobulated and bent.
As the intersection is approached, we can see why this happened.
The tractor trailer on the left has his hood open since his truck is out of commission for the moment.
There is a major truck stop nearby so help is probably close by.

Driver stops, waits for people to cross before running red
Not sure what was going through the driver's mind.
Seemed like she waited for the pedestrians to cross first before proceeding with running the red light.
The pedestrians definitely had a crosswalk signal.
So besides running the red, she disobeys crosswalk signal.

Prevent tailgaters with this simple trick
Is a propane tank on the cargo carrier safe?
Driver was on a recent trip and noticed something peculiar about the upcoming RV.
As he approached and got closer he notices a propane tank on the back cargo carrier of the RV.
It is unknown if it was full but should we be concerned with safety here?
What happens if someone rear ends and crashes into the RV? Might be an explosive situation.
Perhaps it is a tailgater deterrent.
Perhaps it is an empty propane tank.

Almost T-boned a car at a 4 way stop
No audio in this video.
This is a 4 way stop sign intersection.
Dashcam approaches at almost the same time as the car on left.
Does the other car appear to roll through?
Isn't that car supposed to yield to the driver on the right?
The car also comes to a compete stop in the intersection almost as if wanting to be hit.
Perhaps this would have been a 50-50 fault if there was an impact
What about this situation? Who has the right of way?
This is definitely a learning experience for both drivers.

Audi driver does reverse of shame after blocking path
Dashcam footage from driver about to make a left turn when light turns green.
As car was about to make the turn, there is an Audi right in its path.
Apparently the Audi was too far over the white line that it was actually blocking the path of any would be left turns.
The Audi was forced to reverse in order for the car to complete the turn.

BMW vs Subaru Extreme Reckless Highway Racing
Video footage along a CT highway shows two vehicles race down the right lane at high speeds.
Cars appear to be a White BMW and Blue Subaru that are recklessness speeding down a lane intended for slow vehicles.
These two inconsiderate drivers speed by the normal flow of traffic weaving in and out.
