That clip of the suicidal man in the middle of the highway makes this the most confronting compilation I've seen from DCOA.

I can't imagine how I'd feel if I was in that scenario and I didn't react as fast as that driver did.

Yes,that was a concerning scenario - all it'd take is changing the radio station or something interesting on the side of the road and you'd likely not have enough time left to swerve.

Rider was very lucky in that last clip, few cm over and it would have got their leg/foot.
