Yet Another Streamer Accident Because He Was Looking at His Phone

Here we go again. Another streamer has been involved in a car accident because he wasn't paying attention to the road but to his phone and chat.

And again we have to talk about a car crash that happened because a streamer was too focused on his phone and his chat. Feels like Groundhog Day to me at this point. This time the "car crasher" in question goes by Lord Hito on his social media channels.

Driving Stream Ban When?

Many people have already begged platforms like Kick or Twitch to finally ban driving content because it leads to way too many accidents. Our recent example shows exactly that issue once more.

The clip, which serves as evidence, starts a few moments before the crash. Lord Hito is allegedly the driver, while there are at least two other passengers in the car. All of them with a running livestream.

You can see the driver already tailing way too close behind the car in front of him. You can see him fumbling with his phone, where it looks like a livestream is up and running.

The car comes closer to a stop sign; the driver does not slow down, and after a blink, they crash into the car in front of them. A few moments where his attention was on his phone probably caused that crash, and rightfully people are wondering why content like this is still allowed on the big streaming platforms.

According to other users, this isn't Lord Hito's first streaming accident either, yet I've found no sources legitimizing this claim. Given the driving skills he has shown within the clip, it is likely those claims are true.

If there are any updates regarding this topic, we from EarlyGame will let you know!

What do you think? Should the platforms finally step in and ban content like this? Let us know in the comments!
