  1. Can the police use this video against the driver?? One can only imagine if a child/ren were c”v crossing the street to the bus! This guy doesn’t deserve to have a license.

  2. #1 the police wont do anything with a video, i tried it once they told me if i got clear identity of the driver then they can issue a summons and i would be the one to have to press charges in court. if you cant identify the driver just the car, the guy could say he wasnt driving the car,

  3. Look at the yellow blinking lights…. When he switched Lanes it was still yellow. That is allowed. Right before he got there she opened the door and the red lights came on and the Stop sign. You would’ve done the same thing of it was yellow only. Watch…

  4. Nonsense. I saw this guy pass another car at Somerset at 7:05. Big deal. There were no cars coming. Why do all the people that drive around with dents in their cars complain about the people who never get into accidents because they understand the roads and how to use the power of their engine. Lead, follow or get out of the way.

  5. Totally Insane!!!
    And besides-Super Dangerous!!!
    & Illegal!!!
    What do these people think? There is a reason why we have traffic laws!

  6. Maybe they had medical emergency, or an Ems call or fire call they were responding to, maybe they were just in a hurry, maybe the Lakewood Scoop should share all the dash cam videos taken not just the selected few, how about that Folks, wishing you All a Wonderful and Safe Day

    “Troy”

  7. To Anon
    You’re a total fool. The guy is crossing a double yellow as well as passing a school bus loading/unloading children. Even if the lights were only yellow, it would require him to “EXERCISE CAUTION”
    Go back to being ignorant and we will all pray you don’t kill anyone while using “your engine”

  8. @eye the the guy went into oncoming traffic. it doesn’t make a difference if someone knows how to use his engines and drive carefully when he’s not driving according to the law if it’s illegal it is illegal end of story.

  9. he didnt switch lanes, he crossed over the double yellow limes, which is never allowed. idk who youre talking to, but i wouldnt have done the same thing. if you would, maybe dont ever drive. its dangerous

  10. To the poster “Eye”:Since when is crossing into the opposing lane and passing any vehicle on the left legal? And it’s never legal to pass a school when they are stopped….I really wish this driver could be charged.

  11. To “Eye”:
    You say “when he switched lanes it was still yellow…” Therefore it is legal? The bus was stopped with the yellow lights flashing. The yellow lights means prepare to stop! Not try to pass! What does “switching lanes while yellow” (Crossing over double yellow lines which is illegal on its own) have to do with anything??? How about if he was 2 blocks away and he “switched lanes” before the light turned red? Do you think that’s also ok?
    I sure hope your not on the road!

  12. one can hope that the bus’s camera, Plus this dashboard camera can be helpful in securing a conviction of this reckless driver.

  13. I saw this same thing happen on my street here in Toms River just the other day. I was stopped for a school bus, and someone came flying down the street, passing me and the bus. Even worse, they had a “baby on board” sign on their car.
    I drive a fast and powerful car and have no problem passing people on the other side at appropriate times, when it’s safe and legal. Driving a big truck around like an a*# doesn’t make you some big cool man, it makes you a pathetic selfish insecure person.

  14. #4 and #5 – it is illegal to pass over a double yellow line – when a bus turns on the yellow lights, you are supposed to SLOW DOWN and be ready to STOP when the lights turn red. What this person did is completely illegal. I do wish that the videos could be used by the police

  15. since he was driving a greenish pickup truck, we can assume he is not a member of the orthodox community. I guess its not just the orthodox who drive poorly in lakewood.

  16. To anon and eyes.

    Watch again!!

    Passing over double yellow lines -illegal!
    Passing a bus on left side on single lane road with yellow lights on-illegal!!
    By the time the guy got anywhere near the bus the red were on already!!! (He passed a few cars first.

    So how do you justify this???!!!

  17. True… it was not yet red. However, it was a solid yellow line he crossed over… and near an intersection. Illegal and dangerous besides the bus which adds to his actions.

  18. what about all the people that are still on their phones, still driving,slurving, and cutting people off, why don’t the dashcams ever capture that?

  19. incorrect. one is not allowed to cross a double yellow line, school bus or no school bus. the driver is crossing a double yellow.

  20. To No. 4: are you on medication. This person passed on a DOUBLE LINE. That’s not legal. Passing a school bus and a car. Lucky no kids were crossing. And, yellow lights mean caution, to slow down.

  21. He switched lanes crossing a double yellow! Can’t do that!. End of discussion, nothing to do with the bus at that point.

  22. Totally bus drivers fault. He turned on the red lights while the guy was passing. The truck was illegal for crossing double yellow but the bus drivers fault if someone would’ve gotten hurt. Just being illegal doesn’t necessarily mean dangerous. If you think every law means safer your dreaming. All it means is that some congressmen (probably liberal) decided it’s what we should do. Doesn’t make it dangerous.

  23. This picture looks to me that the green truck was driving up county line and after sitting in traffic for a half hour he was finally able to turn left into Apple st and he took the opportunity to make the turn when the bus stopped so there was no opposite traffic, To say that he wanted to pass the bus on that part of county line road is to say that he wanted to commit suicide!

  24. Totally illegal. I must say that some of the poorest drivers I have encountered are in Lakewood. And I have driven for many years as a professional field engineer with a wide ranging region. Metropolitan areas and rural.

  25. I find it kind of shocking that some posters here don’t seem to have a basic understanding of traffic laws. Scary. Or maybe they are not drivers..let’s hope.
