OOo! Yes! I've spent many hours watching those too.

For me it's not mainly the schadenfreude - the former driving instructor in me sees them as a fun "see if you can predict what is going to happen before it happens" game!

Do you have a preferred channel for those?

I have tended to watch this one because it updates every couple of days with a new ~10 minute compilation: https://www.youtube.com/user/CarCras...lation7/videos

I've seen some channels that focus on the US & Canada too, which makes it slightly more interesting (seeing vids from cities I've lived/driven in).
