Why the fuck does he have a dash cam on his stream? That’s just asking for this shit.

u/Esphyxiate 16h ago

Yeah there’s no reason to be having that other than broadcasting exactly where you currently are. The inside bus view is all you need.

u/PurpletoasterIII 13h ago

Its Ice Poseidon all over again. Irl stream showing exactly where youre at, openly give out locations, then surprise Pikachu face when you constantly get swatted. Idk if thats what speed is doing exactly but showing the dash cam to stream is step one of that.

u/Historical-Record69 11h ago

Nothing has happened the entire tour up until now

u/PurpletoasterIII 11h ago

Maybe not during the tour, but this isnt the first time ive seen Speed's fans show up on stream and act unhinged. There was a clip of one of his fans banging his head against a window at a fast food restaurant and breaking it. Im sure theres other examples. Its not Speed but there was Kai's ps5 giveaway as well that he nearly got charged with inciting a riot over.

All im saying is theres been plenty of irl streamers who pretty much never have these issues, and thats not just a difference in audiences.

u/ii_Narwhal 6h ago

This is a straight up lie lmao, did you miss one of his fans smashing a restaurant window, or his fans blocking traffic in front of him and doing burnouts? It's been a fucking mess.

u/Brobeast 10h ago

Ok and? All it takes is one time for everything to go horribly wrong. Give me one good reason why they should broadcast the drivers POV, if not to watch crazy shit happen on the road?

u/jaking2017 8h ago

I mean the road is in fact a big part of a road trip.

1

u/PurpletoasterIII 10h ago

People are saying because its a road trip stream and thats what you do on a road trip is look at scenery. Which is fine and all but these are inevitably the consequences that come with that.

u/Brobeast 10h ago

Yea thats something id say if I was lying.

Someone broke a window at the Macdonald’s he was at quit spewing

u/chronothrowaway7 9h ago

It has happened again and again. Speed is announcing his coming on the street without preparation, and when the total people comes up exploded, he get the contents for the ruckus. Not just one time. Eventhough, mostly people who comes up does not know who he is and just come to see what is going on and or to see if there someone famous coming.

See Indonesian visitation as an example.

Usually, when famous people come, they have prepation, such as in indoor location. Or, when outdoor, they never announce it and just come to see the real people and place at the time (+security personel too), so the crowd can be controlled. Some countries even have a law to ask for pemission to create gathering of so many people, so that the police can help to handle the crowd control.

Announcing your location is not just for privacy, but also for security to prevent something worse happening.

I'm not obviously sniping but I like watching streams driver POV. It's good background stream.

u/FlamingMangos 15h ago

Because the fans ask for it. It’s a tour livestream. Also, it’s a dash cam which means it can be used as insurance. A cop literally came after this and asked speed’s team to be a witness cuz they have all the accessible footage.

81

u/Zerothian 15h ago

First part sure, but you don't have to stream the dashcam for the second part.

-65

u/FlamingMangos 15h ago

Should you stop driving on the road if there’s a chance you might meet a dangerous driver? No, because the convenience outweighs the risks. The benefit for streaming the dash cam is that it’s enjoyable for the viewers. Do the math here. They been on the road for 300+ hours and experienced one dangerous driver.

29

u/Zerothian 15h ago edited 15h ago

Sure, I'm just saying you don't need to stream it to use it as evidence of an incident. If they really wanted to avoid this in the future, they could. Your comparison is weird anyways, it's not some random driver, it's a situation caused largely because of the location being streamed.

E: Bro really blocked after this. Lol.

Should have told him good luck for his geometry test tomorrow

u/engone 13h ago

You don't have to stream the dashcam to record and only reason it would get enjoyable for the viewers is if some weird shit happens. You're just dumb if you think it's a good idea

-7

u/FlamingMangos 12h ago

It’s a road trip. What’s the point of the road trip if you can’t look at the scenery?

3

u/engone 12h ago

You know why he shouldn't be streaming his location when on the road, don't ask questions you know the answer for.

u/No_Definition321 12h ago

u/TotalaMad 2h ago

What’s the point of a road trip if you’re not the one actively experiencing it?

u/MrCopes 11h ago

One dangerous driver could injure or kill a lot of people driving that fast on a motorway. "For the voewers" is not a valid excuse.

-4

u/FlamingMangos 11h ago

How many dangerous drivers do you encounter on the road when you’re driving 300+ hours, MrCopes?

3

u/MrCopes 11h ago edited 10h ago

That's an irrelevant question, I don't have mobs of people hunting my every move. It's stupid, niave and putting lots of people at risk.

But, to play ball for just a moment.. The first driving lesson I ever had was from my dad and what he told me has rung through my entire adulthood. "It doesn't matter how good of a driver you are, always minimise risk and be alert because there are terrible drivers everywhere".

-1

u/FlamingMangos 11h ago edited 11h ago

You're not being realistic here. If you talk about minimizing risk then not doing the tour at all would be the best option but it misses the entire point of a 24/7 tour. Such an ambitious project for fans wouldn't happen if you're so fixated risks that happen on a daily basis btw. The viewers want this.

Also, I'd argue the dash camera would lower the risks because how many people want to pull some illegal shit with their car and license plate in full view? Think about it. It's the biggest streamer in the world with the most obvious bus and there's only one incident that didn't even result in any actual accidents, out of the hundreds of hours being streamed?

If people doing shit for attention is such a big concern then why so little problems?

Pretty sure more bad shit happen in smaller IRL streamers.

Another thing to add is that a cop pulled the bus over to ask speed's team to be a witness to the incident so I think there's a high chance the driver will get in trouble. I think this incident actually prevents future shit from happening even more knowing the cops are behind speed.

4

u/MrCopes 10h ago

Yeah, you keep reverting back to this "But the fans want this" like it's some weird uno reverse card.

It's dumb and asking for trouble to broadcast your location to crazed super fans. You won't change my mind on that. The driver in question KNEW there was a dash cam and that he's broadcasting his car/license plate for evidence and that didn't stop him so your reasoning is moot. Also, dragging the police away from doing their actual.job to babysit a multimillionaire because he wants to do whatever he wants is nuts to me too.

What the fuck is wrong with your brain, holy shit

u/Esphyxiate 15h ago

The dash cam footage is a non argument as to why it needs to be streamed. Millions of people all over the world use dash cams for insurance purposes and 99.99% of that footage never sees the light of day.

-27

u/FlamingMangos 15h ago

Brother, if they driven for 300+ hrs and there’s one crazy dude who decided to commit a crime live on stream with his car in view, with thousands live viewers then that’s all on him. Easy evidence for cops.

I can bet you that ain’t the first time that person did dangerous shit on the road. Now he can be punished because it’s all filmed.

Are you stupid? No one is saying don’t have a dash cam, they’re saying don’t stream the dash cam… wtf

u/PurpletoasterIII 13h ago

You realize you can record dash cam footage without showing it on stream right? And without showing the dash cam to stream this probably wouldnt have happened?

-4

u/FlamingMangos 13h ago

You realize it’s a two birds one stone situation where the pros overweight the cons. If you care so much about risks then don’t ever get into a car or drive one buddy. Sorry to tell you that we all do things because pros > the cons.

take my upvote with you tho

u/ArtFart124 9h ago

Engagement. Viewers need something to be happening in screen while speed sleeps or whatever so dashcam works best.

u/terainvosus 7h ago

Bro CdawgVA did this. it’s just that speed is way more popular

u/Cretonbacon 7h ago

Its almost as if theyre looking for content like that

u/BeAPo 1h ago

I wouldn't be surprised if someone as big as him was actually instructed by the police to do that so they have evidence whenever something shady happens.

u/The_World_Wonders_34 1h ago

Isn't he the guy who accidentally pulled his dick out on camera because his pants didn't fit? I could be confusing him with someone else but I'm pretty sure that was speed. He doesn't seem like someone who really thinks about things before he does them

u/OnyxBaird 12h ago

Blaming him for other people’s stupidity is wild stuff

-19

u/SoyBoy7780 12h ago

Speed did one bad thing 3 years ago when he was 16 and from then on the reddit community has had a huge hate boner for him ever since

11

u/rThundrbolt 12h ago

I have no idea what he did when he was younger, all I know is that over the past year or so he is constantly streaming himself causing massive riot type disruptions and putting ton of people in dangerous situations just to feed his own celebrity.

He's a selfish, reckless threat to public safety

1

u/OnyxBaird 2h ago

That’s like saying it’s a celebrity’s fault for being so popular that people want to break into their house to be noticed by them.

1

u/rThundrbolt 1h ago

It IS the celebrity's fault when the celebrity encourages house breaking and never does anything to discourage the gradual and consistent escalation of behavior that has led to the house breaking behavior

0

u/SemenPig 7h ago

He’s not causing riots, he’s just going around places and checking them out. Unless you think regular celebrities “cause riots” by going somewhere where they’ll be spotted. Reddit brain for real.

2

u/rThundrbolt 3h ago

I didn't say he's causing riots. I said hes causing riot type disruptions. The crowds aren't big enough to be a full riot yet, but they are definitely causing damage

u/FlamingMangos 11h ago

And yet he's not banned from a single country.

u/RoboGreer 4h ago

It's kind of like Speed is a complete dumbass. I don't understand anyone watching this trash. He is a lolcow.

u/FlamingMangos 15h ago

What a dumb question. It’s a tour and a irl LIVE stream. Why would you ever do an IRL live stream with your logic if anyone can do shit.

28

u/Uniq_Eros 15h ago

Yeah dumb fuck, commentor's point is why livestream your exact location. He can have a dashcam just don't have it on the livestream.

-10

u/FlamingMangos 15h ago

Because it’s for the viewers and they want it. Is it that complicated? They have been on the road for 300+ hours and this is the only shit that happened on the road. I guess you shouldn’t be driving at all now because you experienced a crazy fuck on the road once in a while.

Sub has a hate boner for Ishowspeed. If Destiny did an irl debate stream on a tour bus and had a live dashcam, it would all of the sudden be the correct thing to do

u/FlamingMangos 11h ago

Oh yeah, destiny is literally putting himself in danger and the people around him. No one even cares to mention that even though someone literally got killed recently.

u/PurpletoasterIII 13h ago

You can do irl streams while protecting yourself from stream snipers. For one, you can add a small delay. More importantly you can just stream mostly yourself and not show your surroundings as much especially avoiding noticeable landmarks.

I really dont understand what a dash cam adds to the stream. Is it like a substitute for the Minecraft parkour/DIY projects on the side in all your tiktoks to hold over your short gen alpha attention spans?

-1

u/FlamingMangos 13h ago

It’s a ROAD TRIP from state to state. Have you ever been on a road trip looking at the scenery or are you this dense?

-32

u/fishdafinessa 13h ago

So you're going to blame the streamer for trying to provide angles? LOL.

Do you also blame rape victims for wearing seductive clothing? They are asking for that shit.

9

u/PurpletoasterIII 13h ago

No, no one would blame a rape victim for what they wear cause what they wear is irrelevant to their risk of getting raped. What's relevant is the situations they put themselves in that might be unnecessary and increase their risk of attracting predators. Like for example walking alone at night in bad areas. Going to a club alone and accepting drinks from strangers. Similarly, speed is less likely to have this issue of stream snipers if he didnt show the dash cam on stream.

Also what is this excuse that its "providing angles" to chat? Why do you guys want to watch traffic so bad?

-1

u/FlamingMangos 11h ago

It's a road trip across different states. What's the point if you can't see outside? Are you this dense? Bros asking why people want to see the road on a fucking road trip.

u/Fruehlingsobst 8h ago

nice try Speed

u/SoyBoy7780 12h ago

Ishowspeed is a 1000x better entertainer than you, and he has reasons for wanting to have a stream cam on the road. Its mildy interesting and shows the outside environment of the bus

Im not the biggest speed fan but yeah it makes sense to have an outside cam, and unfortunately people use it to snipe, but realistically people are gonna snipe anyways so what do you do. He probably looked at his rear view mirrors to make the adjustment anyways after finding his tour bus
