History

DRHRoadHazards joined YouTube on February 15, 2009. Their first video would be uploaded 2 days later with the title "Delinquent Road Hazards". The video in question was the said scene that the channel was based around. On February 18th, DRHRoadHazards uploaded a video titled "Delinquent Road Hazards: DRH Tribute", a tribute video to the characters with Raptile's Go Faster as the background song.

After uploading DRH Tribute, DRHRoadHazards went inactive until July 13th 2009, when they returned with a video titled "Cars - The video game: High Speed Heist". 2 more videos were uploaded a few minutes later. DRHRoadHazards would upload 6 more videos in July 2009. On July 18th 2009, 3 videos were uploaded: Fight Back, Da Unbeatables and Neva Eva. These videos were edits of the DRH scene with Raptile songs of the same names playing in the background. After the DRH Raptile videos, DRHRoadHazards would become inactive until August, when they uploaded a video titled "Cars - Tokyo Drift Trailer". The video was an edit of the Cars Toons episode Tokyo Mater, with the audio removed and replaced with the audio from the trailer for the 2006 film The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift.

After another longer upload hiatus, DRHRoadHazards returned with a slightly newer editing style in March 2010. In their first 2010 upload titled Kick Off, DRHRoadHazards implemented an effect which switched RGB colors into BGR colors. 2 more videos in 2010 would see more color changing and effects on the Delinquent Road Hazards scene. After another period of activity, DRHRoadHazards would return with one final upload titled Delinquent Road Hazards - Im Back on February 7th 2011.

After years of the channel being inactive, it would return in March 2018, when a Vietnamese musician known as Tom, rebranded the channel originally into V.O.X Official, until it was renamed into TomV a few years later. During April - June 2018, Tom temporarily removed the videos, and archived statistics indicate that he restored some videos, based on total view counts collected during that time period. All DRHRoadHazards videos were permanently removed from the original channel on June 25, 2018.

Archival efforts

Reuploads of DRHRoadHazards' videos as early as 2011 have been documented, however, organized archives with most of their videos appeared in 2017. During January-August 2017, a channel named DRHRoadHazardsOffical uploaded 7 out of 16 DRHRoadHazards videos, however it's suspected that the channel's main purpose was to serve as a clone channel, not an official archive effort. In 2018, more DRHRoadHazards clones appeared on YouTube, a lot of them were later removed. In November 2020, DRHRoadHazardsOffical got renamed to Alex Dejano, and the channel owner deleted all of their DRHRoadHazards reuploads.

As of May 2026, 14 out of 16 DRHRoadHazards videos have been successfully archived in their original forms. In December 2025, a dedicated archive channel for DRHRoadHazards appeared, and the DRHRoadHazards Archival Project was established a few weeks later.
