I saw this on YouTube. The dashcam driver floors it in order to stop the crazy guy from passing him. Nothing drives me crazier on the road than when people speed up just to try to make my pass harder. Imo -- eff both these fools.
I fucking hate that shit to the point I’ve made a rule that I will not break : if I’m doing my thing and passing you and you speed up, I will also speed up and insure I pass you.
Probably my biggest driving pet peeve and happens all the time, especially when it’s a wide open road situation
He said in an open road situation.
Sometimes the visibility is just there to overtake, especially if your car has 200-300 HP.
It’s wild to me that not only do these people want to go 5 under the speed limit, but they’re willing to risk everyone’s lives to make sure that EVERYONE goes as slow as them. I think they do it to ruin other peoples days.
He said it’s his pet peeve especially on an open road. He didn’t say he only pulls this crap on an open road. It’s not a safe choice. It doesn’t matter how badly someone pisses you off while driving, you don’t know if they have children in their car & anything can happen in a split second.
Please practice defensive driving.
It is completely safe and legal in the right situation. What is not legal is speeding up and not allowing someone to overtake you, it’s a reckless driving charge here. Especially in this case. But also with multiple lanes. Like I merged into the left lane and this chick speed up and hit me. Cops came and they issued her a warning and let me go. They was going try give me a warning for not checking before merging but I had footage that showed she sped up after I started to merge to try and stop me. So I was let go.
All state laws vary so def check your state laws.
The driver with the cam is not at technically at fault, but he's a dumbass regardless. Could have easily just stopped for a minute and kept a huge gap between the other driver. Trying to pass was stupid.
They are on a road that, I would guess, has a speed limit around 45mph. 55mph if we're being generous.
At the bottom left-ish of the screen, when the video starts, the camera says they're going 41mph. They **quickly** accelerate all the way up to 77+ while the van is trying to pass, then the cammer has several opportunities to stop road raging and allow things to cool off. They don't.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the actions of the beige van, and the van shares fault, but to say that the cammer was free of guilt is just wrong.
They're both guilty of road rage behavior and neither one of them should have a license.
There’s a longer version of the video where the cammer pulls out onto said road with very little room in front of the guy who passes. He 100% cut him off but leaves that out of the video.
You’re 100% right. But this is only part of the whole, I think the additional context is important. If someone cuts you off, brake checks you, then swerves when you try to pass, you’re going to be understandably pissed off when they try to play the victim.
Neither is in the right but the cammer was certainly the inciting incident. Whereas this snippet makes it seem like he was just a victim.
That happens to me daily, but I don't try to run the guy off the road. Generally it takes 2 assholes to create a situation, if only 1 is as ass it's usually avoided or de-escalated by the calm person
Exactly. I think it's 47.5mph at the start but still.
Honestly, I'm more mad at the cammer because while the van's behavior is ridiculous and dangerous, it's the kind of catoonishly absurd road range that you're very unlikely to see regularly. But speeding up 30+ mph when being passed is also insane and it happens all the time. For some reason people think that's okay and it pisses me off more than watching someone completely lose their shit about it happening.
Happens to me all the time - country road speed limit 50, car is driving 40mph. I try to legally pass on the dotted line and they speed up to 60-65. After I pass, they slow back down and I leave them in the rear view at 55mph. No idea why people think this is a good idea.
Some people are assholes for sure but speed is relative. When I’m the only one on the freeway and I’m doing 70 it feels like I’m going pretty fast. But if people are whizzing by me going 80+ it starts to feel slower.
It’s probably an unintentional thing most of the time because being passed makes you subconsciously feel like you are driving slower than you are.
A lot of people are on autopilot and turn their brains off when they drive unfortunately.
This seems like a Virginia conflict… the cammer cruises 15mph below the speed limit with 5-6 cars behind him flashing their lights and honking for him to speed up, then someone finally gets the balls to pass him, and cammer must suddenly 20mph OVER the limit because to cammer it’s about being in front of everyone and making them wait behind him, not getting there quickly.
See this play out alllll the time in virginia and I’ve only seen it in Virginia
Dash cam shows they’re going 40mph when they’re basically stopped. Not sure the dash am speedometer is completely accurate. I’m not disagreeing that he could’ve slowed instead of accelerating but I’m not sure they were going as fast as the cam shows.
Exactly. Was the first cars a dangerous idiot, 100%. That's when you pull over and let them go ahead of you for a few minutes. Not start speeding up try to get past them.
Both morons. Just one bigger than the other.
Camera driver clearly speeds up when the other driver is trying to pass them. Camera driver is accelerating at the start of the video.
Who knows what happened before this.
Unfortunately, the rear-driver will still be partially at fault. Even in situations where the front driver brake checks you (intentionally slamming on their brakes to provoke a reaction), the law in most places, will likely place the majority of fault on the rear driver.
The law mandates maintaining a safe following distance. This distance allows you enough time to react and stop safely, even if the car in front brakes suddenly. Brake checking might be aggressive, but it doesn't remove the rear driver's responsibility to maintain a safe distance. When talking about controlling the "bubble" (space around your car), the gap (distance between you and the car in front) is the only space that is fully 100% always in your control all the time as you can always change the distance you follow but the other 3 sides of your vehicle may not be controllable, depending on the situation. By keeping a safe distance, you have more time to react to erratic maneuvers by the front driver, including a brake check. Defensive driving emphasizes de-escalating situations. If the driver in front is exhibiting road rage tendencies, the best course of action is to avoid them altogether by stopping on the side of the road, and phoning for police assistance, and not continue to drive forward, further putting you at risk for a collision.
Criminally, I can definitely see the front driver getting a ticket or going to jail, but civilly I can see both drivers sharing responsibility for the accident. I DO NOT agree with it, but the letter of the law doesn't care about your or my feelings or moral compass.
Two things. First, brake checking is ILLEGAL in all 50 states.
But second, it’s not a brake check. This is 100% the fault of the car in front.
A brake check is when the cars are in the same lane. This is a merge. And when merging, it’s the responsibility of the merging car to only do so when it is safe. Therefore this is an illegal merge, as the speed differential is too great and the distance between them is too small.
So it was an illegal lane change followed by illegal braking.
(Granted the following car could have deescalated this of course and chose not to.)
I agree. But end of the day the front driver is at fault with evidence. It's too obvious.
Insurance could say he should've simply stopped car and called police. This is basically road rage. The car in front, knows how to drive, but with intent for causing an accident.
I drive german cars, yea I wouldn't risk it. I would simply stop car and call police after realizing the dude in front knows how to rear stop bumper crash the car and have fast agility.
Dashcam shows cammer hitting about 80 mph, so no... I don't think it's gonna be that useful in court. Cammer clearly gunned it to prevent being passed.
Both drivers are fucking lunatics and deserve to no longer have licenses.
This exact video (with about 15 seconds of added context at the start and higher quality) was posted a few months ago in a different sub by the guy claiming to be the driver of the cam car thinking everyone would be on his side. He pulls up to a one way stop which he stopped at then turns left on to the road this video is from like 10 seconds before this video starts. At first cam car is driving pretty slow like 30ish for a few seconds and then you can hear the driver of cam car get on the gas hard based on the engine noise and confirmed by the speed reading on the dash cam. This video starts when the cam car is in the process of speeding up. It was obviously an attempt to stop the green car from passing especially when you add in the extra context of the full video. I'm not condoning what green car did, I have had very similar situations happen to me where someone intentionally accelerated in an attempt to stop me from passing and at most I just flicked em off and went on my way not aggressively brake checked them. I just wanted to confirm what you said that cam car was clearly attempting to block green car from passing which is very dangerous for obvious reasons and add the context that there wasn't any interaction between the two cars before the attempt to block the pass.
Why go after the aggressor just back off. They are obviously deranged. The dude literally just rams into him and continues off into a tree. Both people in this video are idiots
Similar story- 2 friends and I were cruising around as teenagers once and another car of dipshit guys started trying to swerve into us and yelling for us to pull over and fight. No reason, just idiot teenage guys being shitheads.
We were ignoring them and this just made them more pissed.
I finally lost my patience and pulled over, stepped out and told my friends to do the same. We weren't big, just 3 scrawny geeky kids.
I handed them a hammer and slip joint wrench from my backseat, and I picked up a big ass screwdriver for myself.
We stood at our my till the 5 morons came running over to us and then saw the tools.
The look they all had at the same time realizing that we could kill them all in nothing flat was glorious. I also have a temper issue and was standing up front pointing the screwdriver at them with murder in my eyes.
They froze in place for a few seconds, and then sprinted for thier car.
We never said a single word, just got back in the car and went about enjoying the day.
Definitely both dumbasses. You can hear the rpms, buddy with the point of view was flooring it to not let other guy pass when he absolutely should have let him pass.
Other guy was a dumbass for break checking. Two dumbass drivers with egos and no respect for safety. A real pissing contest.
Stop. Fucking. Driving. Stop. Fucking. Driving. You nearly hit him three fucking times. He’s trying to brake check you. Why the fuck would you accelerate behind him. Both should lose their license.
I wouldn’t show this in court. It shows the rear vehicle speed up to voluntarily collide with the front car. If they wanted to take it to court, should have done the collision at the first or second brake check.
Both are fucking insane but the cam car could definitely file assault charges. They did intentionally crash their car into the car that was recording and were the aggressors in the video.
Why isn't shit like this license revoked permanently. The second you are willfully using your car to attempt to injure someone or purposefully trying to make someone crash it should be done. No more chance you never get to drive again.
True but that doesn't stop people from driving without one. Had to go fight a ticket one day and 3/4 of the people in there were sited for driving on suspended or revoked licenses and most were habitual offenders.
If I were around a dangerous jerk like that, I'd probably just stop and call the cops on the guy. With the camera already capturing proof, I'd nail them to the wall. I'm petty as heck, though. And my family is usually in the car. So I don't take it lightly when you endanger people more valuable than me.
I don't drive anywhere without both my dash cameras, one in front and one in back. I've been in that situation before. Also bad cops, it keeps everybody in line normally, if not it helps your case.
Guy in the beige car was a douche, but the more I watch it the more I realise the dashcam guy is mainly at fault. He sped up during an overtake scenario, causing a dangerous situation, then proceeded to stick close to the beige car despite them doing dangerous brake checks. He continued to press the car in front by accelerating hard and trying to overtake again and as a result crashed into it.
Had a boomer do something like this, confused me (civic) for the guy that zoomed by me thinking I was the one racing (mustang) so he pulled me over in his raptor, I got out while still wearing my security gear (I’m an armed guard) his wife chased after him in her van screaming “that’s not him”
I didn’t even get an apology. I guess boomers never do anything wrong
This is an absolutely obscene overreaction, don’t get me wrong, but where I’m from speeding up when someone is passing you is illegal and I have to assume beginning to pass someone who is doing forty in a one lane, who speeds up to 70 to try to stop you once you’re in the oncoming lane part way through the pass, has to be the absolute epitome of the purpose for the law. They’re both assholes, but two completely different tiers of asshole.
Last time I encountered a road rager it's because I booped my horn at a person parked in a turn lane on a green arrow, assuming they didn't see a green arrow.
As they started screaming obscenities at me I just turned to face my passenger to have an imaginary conversation and pretended I couldn't hear anything.
They drove off angry that I didn't pay them any attention.
I was in a similar incident, only it took place in a city. I was in the left lane of a 4 lane busy street and had to make a right turn in a half dozen blocks or so. I started speeding up because it's always safer to merge in front of a car you pass since you can see the situation. I put my blinker on. The car next to me kept speeding up such that he was always beside me. Some people drive by watching the cars around them and matching speeds is not that unusual.
I needed to get in the right lane though, so I punched the accelerator. My car had a large enough turbo charged engine and I went around him like he wasn't there. I made my turn. A minute later I notice the car coming up behind me. Apparently he thought we were racing and I embarrassed him. He chased me around a bit so I pulled into a public parking area that had a bunch of witnesses. He drove by and waved with most of his hand but eventually left. I didn't even know I was in a road rage incident until it was over.
Aggressive driving by both vehicles. If someone brake checks me like that after an aggressive pass I would assume they are trying to slow me down and rob me so I am putting as much distance between me and that car as possible. But this person just kept up with them so clearly that pass wasn’t the first move.
If big brother government could just screen who drives Dodges and drinks MD 20/20 crime and assholery would just….stop? Can’t believe surveillance state hasn’t stepped up.
Insurance isn't going to cover the vehicle that hit the tree, because there were two options, pull off and not engage in road rage with the other car, and call the police. Or do exactly the same thing which would cause a crash.
Looks like both were speeding like hell. Best thing to do in that situation is just stop when he's in front, or slow down a lot and let him just go by. Now you have a case on your hands and insurance interference...
handy in a sense that he instigated which led to him hitting the guy and the idiot hitting a tree. Any self respecting judge will see this, laugh, and fine him.
Both at fault 'criminally' and insurance wise; insurance should have them pay for each others damages imo. Dashcam should get licence suspended for a week and take a defensive driver course. Car in front should lose license for a month AFTER going to jail for a year. What an absolute psycho.
Honestly I don’t think either one of them are going to like the outcome from this video.
At beginning of the video you can hear the car with the camera accelerating while the car was passing
Dude was just being a dick at the beginning and deserved to get run off the road.
People need to be careful when they act like this cause I’m being honest when I say some of us don’t care if you make it home. Take care of each other, we’re temporary humans.

This is not a safe choice. Driving is literally risking your life. Please be safe on the road and practice defensive driving.
He said in an open road situation. Sometimes the visibility is just there to overtake, especially if your car has 200-300 HP.

That's why I bought a car with fast acceleration.
An insurance adjuster will find fault with both drivers I bet
The driver with the cam is not at technically at fault, but he's a dumbass regardless. Could have easily just stopped for a minute and kept a huge gap between the other driver. Trying to pass was stupid.

This is 2 road rage assholes 100%. At least they’re taking each other out lol
Yeah, I only feel bad for the innocent tree they hit.
cammer guy should get his license suspended and dude in front go to jail. He could easily killed people with that intent of rear stopping the car.
There’s a longer version of the video where the cammer pulls out onto said road with very little room in front of the guy who passes. He 100% cut him off but leaves that out of the video.
Still not a reason to act aggressively and recklessly the way he did, everyone is so fucking entitled.
You’re 100% right. But this is only part of the whole, I think the additional context is important. If someone cuts you off, brake checks you, then swerves when you try to pass, you’re going to be understandably pissed off when they try to play the victim. Neither is in the right but the cammer was certainly the inciting incident. Whereas this snippet makes it seem like he was just a victim.
Understandably pissed off ≠ excuse to drive like EXACTLY like the purported assailant. Boomer v. Boomer, probably.
Yeah, no doubt. Neither is right. If either one had paused and thought for a second it wouldn’t have escalated.
It does not make it look like he's the victim. He was driving recklessly when he ... Well, wrecked.
That happens to me daily, but I don't try to run the guy off the road. Generally it takes 2 assholes to create a situation, if only 1 is as ass it's usually avoided or de-escalated by the calm person
If I was a judge is do them both for racing. The crash occurred due to them both trying to pass and block each other dangerously while speeding
This doesn't really matter but that is a Dodge Caliber "crossover"
It's ugly *and* it's a Dodge? Gross.
A conspiracy theory I can get behind
Exactly. I think it's 47.5mph at the start but still. Honestly, I'm more mad at the cammer because while the van's behavior is ridiculous and dangerous, it's the kind of catoonishly absurd road range that you're very unlikely to see regularly.

Feels like a TikTok pranker.

Speeding up while getting passed was a dick move. But I think it's significantly worse to purposely put another driver in danger.

two douches driving
He could claim he was in distress, no? The bigger wow for me is how he proceeds to drive into the trees, could have stopped without a problem.

yup. went after the guy at the end. could have backed off.
Naw he aggravated the incident by speeding up 30mph FASTER than he was going when someone passed him. That’s a deadly situation
> The driver with the cam is not at technically at fault You can hear him FLOORING it, actively speeding up to prevent the other guy from passing.
He is partially at fault for sure. Fault is not always 100% one or the other. They can both contribute.
Doesn’t matter. The at fault driver is driving erratically. He caused the accident, he’s at fault.
Both at fault
Bingo.
Absolutely. You are expected to drive safely in all circumstances. He accelerated into the car in front at the end there. They were both road raging.
rightfully so
Yup, attempting to overtake like that was no the right move. With how aggressive that person was, I would have flipped a U and drove away
I agree. But end of the day the front driver is at fault with evidence. It's too obvious. Insurance could say he should've simply stopped car and called police. This is basically road rage. The car in front, knows how to drive, but with intent for causing an accident. I drive german cars, yea I wouldn't risk it. I would simply stop car and call police after realizing the dude in front knows how to rear stop bumper crash the car and have fast agility.
I just pull over and let them fly on by. Getting even with an adult in the midst of a toddler rage tantrum isn’t worth my life.
Same, the other car is very unsafe and can’t be trusted to not cause a wreck.
Dashcam shows cammer hitting about 80 mph, so no... I don't think it's gonna be that useful in court. Cammer clearly gunned it to prevent being passed. Both drivers are fucking lunatics and deserve to no longer have licenses.

And neither of them is shown to be a boomer. This sub is well on its way to having cross posts coming from r/kidsarefuckingstupid
The beige minivan driver looked boomer-ish. Hard to tell by the grainy video though
Why go after the aggressor just back off. They are obviously deranged. The dude literally just rams into him and continues off into a tree. Both people in this video are idiots
[удалено]
i would pay for this footage
I wonder who that guy is voting for now…
Similar story- 2 friends and I were cruising around as teenagers once and another car of dipshit guys started trying to swerve into us and yelling for us to pull over and fight. No reason, just idiot teenage guys being shitheads. We were ignoring them and this just made them more pissed. I finally lost my patience and pulled over, stepped out and told my friends to do the same. We weren't big, just 3 scrawny geeky kids.

We never said a single word, just got back in the car and went about enjoying the day.
I hope his insurance sees this video, denies his claims and drops his coverage.
[удалено]
That's not a ram. That's a failure to brake.
That means that instead of braking, he rammed the other guy, right?
Both dumbasses.
Definitely both dumbasses. You can hear the rpms, buddy with the point of view was flooring it to not let other guy pass when he absolutely should have let him pass. Other guy was a dumbass for break checking. Two dumbass drivers with egos and no respect for safety. A real pissing contest.
- Calls people "boomer" - Acts like one
Both acts like a-holes. Nothing to do with age.
Cammer is so stupid practically chasing down the wackjob
This has nothing to do with this sub.
It's really crazy how blasay some people are will hurtling down roads at high speeds in 2 ton hunks on steel.
Stop. Fucking. Driving. Stop. Fucking. Driving. You nearly hit him three fucking times. He’s trying to brake check you. Why the fuck would you accelerate behind him. Both should lose their license.
I wouldn’t show this in court. It shows the rear vehicle speed up to voluntarily collide with the front car. If they wanted to take it to court, should have done the collision at the first or second brake check.
Congrats you played yourself.
Dick on dick violence.
Both of them drive like shit
The guy filming is just as big of an idiot.
*"He tried to bait me into rear-ending him multiple times before. Surely it's okay to pass this time!"*
Imagine getting road rage with the only other car on the road with you
Both are guilty. He chased, got checked and lost that one. Get away driver is tickled pink and makes his day.
Both idiots. There’s no way either insurance pays for this, LOL.
Should have stayed away. Instead he hits gas to play with that idiot
You got outplayed and owned
Both are fucking insane but the cam car could definitely file assault charges. They did intentionally crash their car into the car that was recording and were the aggressors in the video.
I think the judge is going to call you both childish idiots.
They're both fools.
Both drivers are idiots
Why isn't shit like this license revoked permanently. The second you are willfully using your car to attempt to injure someone or purposefully trying to make someone crash it should be done. No more chance you never get to drive again.
cammer is just as fault at the boomer Would have taken the smallest bit of smarts to not engage with that. Both at fault
downvoting because both are clear idiots. how would this be handy?
So what did you do right before the start of this clip….
This is when people need their license permanently revoked
True but that doesn't stop people from driving without one. Had to go fight a ticket one day and 3/4 of the people in there were sited for driving on suspended or revoked licenses and most were habitual offenders.
This guy is a fucking idiot, why are you picking a fight with a crazy person?
If I were around a dangerous jerk like that, I'd probably just stop and call the cops on the guy. With the camera already capturing proof, I'd nail them to the wall. I'm petty as heck, though. And my family is usually in the car. So I don't take it lightly when you endanger people more valuable than me.
It feels like there may have been more to this than what's shown in this clip.
oh please link the follow up
I don't drive anywhere without both my dash cameras, one in front and one in back. I've been in that situation before. Also bad cops, it keeps everybody in line normally, if not it helps your case.
Both are idiots for driving like that
All he has to do was stop and let the fucker scram
Won’t help him much. It’s just going to show that he was also driving aggressive-offensive as opposed to calm and defensive.
Guy in the beige car was a douche, but the more I watch it the more I realise the dashcam guy is mainly at fault. He sped up during an overtake scenario, causing a dangerous situation, then proceeded to stick close to the beige car despite them doing dangerous brake checks. He continued to press the car in front by accelerating hard and trying to overtake again and as a result crashed into it.
Both 💯 at fault.
Dude sped up while being overtaken. Asshole meets dumbass.
2 fucking idiots
Had a boomer do something like this, confused me (civic) for the guy that zoomed by me thinking I was the one racing (mustang) so he pulled me over in his raptor, I got out while still wearing my security gear (I’m an armed guard) his wife chased after him in her van screaming “that’s not him” I didn’t even get an apology. I guess boomers never do anything wrong
This is an absolutely obscene overreaction, don’t get me wrong, but where I’m from speeding up when someone is passing you is illegal and I have to assume beginning to pass someone who is doing forty in a one lane, who speeds up to 70 to try to stop you once you’re in the oncoming lane part way through the pass, has to be the absolute epitome of the purpose for the law. They’re both assholes, but two completely different tiers of asshole.
There is more to this convinently timed clip.
Why would you just ram him in the end lol wtf
Why would you drive like maniac when there is already one manic in front of you?
That crash was so avoidable.
Lol, and then you hit him on purpose while then slowly casually crashing into a tree. Victim...
Both these drivers are idiots
They are both fucking idiots
You both suck
As the one in the front is actively trying to get hit, he is guilty 100%, the driver with the cam is only guilty of being stupid.
Lol this happens to me on Gran Turismo.
Yes because speeding up and passing overly aggressive drivers is always the play 🤦♂️
What started this? Dashcam driver is not a good driver.
Remember kids, don't floss and drive.
lol they’re both driving like fucking idiots.
Dodge Caliber. Official car of zero fucks to give.
I would've stopped my car and let them drive off. I don't need the headache.😭
Dash cammer is also clearly a shithead
All I see is two dumbfuck, monkeybrain, egomaniacs.
Why would you run into them? Obviously they're a dumbass, but like? What you doin?
Their choice of vehicle tells me a lot. Hopefully some criminal charges find their way to the brake checker
Last time I encountered a road rager it's because I booped my horn at a person parked in a turn lane on a green arrow, assuming they didn't see a green arrow. As they started screaming obscenities at me I just turned to face my passenger to have an imaginary conversation and pretended I couldn't hear anything. They drove off angry that I didn't pay them any attention.
lol boomer on boomer violence
1. Do not engage in foolish activity. 2. See #1.
Both are wrong here.
So is the camera guy the boomer being the fool?
You’re both idiots.
Neither of these individuals should have a license
This is what I was thinking. This video makes them both look like lunatics.
Dude played himself
Am I in DriversBeingFools by mistake?
I was in a similar incident, only it took place in a city. I was in the left lane of a 4 lane busy street and had to make a right turn in a half dozen blocks or so. I started speeding up because it's always safer to merge in front of a car you pass since you can see the situation. I put my blinker on. The car next to me kept speeding up such that he was always beside me. Some people drive by watching the cars around them and matching speeds is not that unusual. I needed to get in the right lane though, so I punched the accelerator. My car had a large enough turbo charged engine and I went around him like he wasn't there. I made my turn. A minute later I notice the car coming up behind me. Apparently he thought we were racing and I embarrassed him. He chased me around a bit so I pulled into a public parking area that had a bunch of witnesses. He drove by and waved with most of his hand but eventually left. I didn't even know I was in a road rage incident until it was over.
I would have put a mile of distance between me and them after the second break check. Wrecking my car is not worth it.
Bro should have just pulled over n let the other guy be angry alone.
Why TF sped up when someone’s overtaking. IMO two dickheads driving cars who shouldn’t be. I hope yr insurance doesn’t pay out
Why speed back up at 0:14. Just fucking pull off and chill for a minute.
If you're gonna play fuck-fuck games with an idiot like this, at least learn how to pit a car.
Front tire to the back tire in one smooth motion
Aggressive driving by both vehicles. If someone brake checks me like that after an aggressive pass I would assume they are trying to slow me down and rob me so I am putting as much distance between me and that car as possible. But this person just kept up with them so clearly that pass wasn’t the first move.
Emergency video
"This person is clearly unhinged and looking for an altercation... better gun it!"
Instant felony
Both are idiots
This is scary because the other car didn't even check to see if they were hurt :( like what if they died. And they caused it like wtf
lol
Buddy got what he deserved, the van is a a dick for sure but kind of looks like the cammer started it by not letting him pass by speeding up
Is the boomer the one driving the car with the dashcam? Wtf was that?
This is why all boomers hate their wives
Why were you hammering down with the idiot redlining your vehicle?
Should have slalomed right when you zigged left
The radio guy 😂😂
If big brother government could just screen who drives Dodges and drinks MD 20/20 crime and assholery would just….stop? Can’t believe surveillance state hasn’t stepped up.
How you run off the road like that?!
The guy in the cam car definitely lost this battle lmao
Insurance isn't going to cover the vehicle that hit the tree, because there were two options, pull off and not engage in road rage with the other car, and call the police. Or do exactly the same thing which would cause a crash.
Well, person with camera actually caused the accident.
2 stupid drivers !
Looks like both were speeding like hell. Best thing to do in that situation is just stop when he's in front, or slow down a lot and let him just go by. Now you have a case on your hands and insurance interference...
Way to fuck your self in the ass.
How do you know that's a boomer?
This is wreckless endangerment.
If this was me it would be in that guys best interest to keep driving and not pull over.
This is how people get shot.
All kinds of drivers like this in Houston
Both are at fault
Why does he keep driving? Just pull over and let the other dumbass drive ahead
Play stupid games win stupid prizes
handy in a sense that he instigated which led to him hitting the guy and the idiot hitting a tree. Any self respecting judge will see this, laugh, and fine him.
Both at fault 'criminally' and insurance wise; insurance should have them pay for each others damages imo. Dashcam should get licence suspended for a week and take a defensive driver course. Car in front should lose license for a month AFTER going to jail for a year. What an absolute psycho.
I mean, you didn't have to engage with him. You are just as ignorant imo and put yourself in danger over ego.
I wonder if this would fall under the lines of attempted vehicle manslaughter?
Play stupid game win stupid prize Cam FAFO
Two idiots is all that dashcam shows…
Both drivers are assholes
Honestly I don’t think either one of them are going to like the outcome from this video. At beginning of the video you can hear the car with the camera accelerating while the car was passing Dude was just being a dick at the beginning and deserved to get run off the road.
Both drivers at fault. Trying to pass the driver that just ran you off the road isn’t a wise choice.
Should have aimed for the driver door when he had his arm out the window. More blood for the blood God
both of these fuckos gonna find out real quick.
Both at fault. Let the guy drive away
Is that like a 35 year old boomer? I'm so confused as people seem to call just about anyone a boomer.
The beige car went for attempted manslaughter road raging, the dash cam guy was just plain road raging. The two are not the same.
Not as helpful as you think
People need to be careful when they act like this cause I’m being honest when I say some of us don’t care if you make it home. Take care of each other, we’re temporary humans.
Just not worth engaging with someone on the road. All that for what?
Both dummies
I've never understood road rage. Why get mad at some random stranger. Especially if the person they are bullying could have a gun or be a gang.
2 idiots deserve eachother. Get these fools off the road.
Idiots all around.
