A driver's surreal overtaking in the middle of Santander leaves no one indifferent: "It's hard to do worse, even if you wanted to."

Anyone who drives can accidentally make a mistake behind the wheel. Sometimes we accidentally park in a loading and unloading zone, in a ford, or forget to use our turn signal. But some reckless acts are much more serious than others. Some of them can even put our own lives and the lives of others at risk.

And sometimes, people forget the importance of connecting all five senses while driving a vehicle. Doing so is essential for your own safety, but also for the safety of other drivers and others around you who could be injured if an accident were caused by your carelessness.

There are many reckless driving incidents in Spain. A few years ago, these incidents were only remembered by those who experienced them. However, today, with the advent of social media, some profiles compile videos of reckless road situations. This is the case with Dashcams España, whose posts number in the thousands and are updated daily. Profiles like these give us an idea of ​​how dangerous road conditions are in our country.

This Instagram account recently shared a video showing a car traveling down a street in downtown Santander. The footage was captured from inside a car driving in the center lane of a three-lane road traveling in the same direction.

At the beginning of the video, everything seems fine. In front of the car capturing the scene, two vehicles can be seen traveling in the same lane and in the adjacent one, on the left. However, it doesn't take long for the car traveling in the left lane to commit a reckless error.

At one point, this car puts on its right turn signal and changes lanes. This change poses no danger. However, the driver attempts to change lanes, and during this second change, he fails to signal the maneuver and decides to change lanes when the car recording the incident is almost at his side, forcing the driver to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.
