As if ignoring the double white lines wasn’t bad enough, the driver of this white sedan inexplicably failed to return to their side of the road on time.
First, the good news. According to the description of the video, “everyone walked away” from this incident, which is the most you can hope for whenever a frontal collision occurs.
As for why this happened, aside from ignoring the double white lines, it’s possible that the driver of the sedan panicked when they saw the incoming car and tried to exit the road rather than fall back in line.
Another scenario would also include some panic, but with a dash of international tourism, where the person at fault might not have been accustomed to driving on the left side of the road, resulting in hesitating at precisely the wrong time.
By that point, there wasn’t much the driver of the 4×4 could do, except for brake as hard as they could.
