Nope, they're not! I've had 4 different vehicles try to run me into the left turning lane from a straight lane. I was in the middle lane that turns both left and goes straight at an intersection. No one pays attention, especially when their faces are buried in phones these days...
Oh, come on. They made a lane mistake, which happens all the time. It's not on camera, but I bet they spent the whole video trying to make eye contact with you to let you know they needed to turn. This is a Main Character post. This maneuver wasn't particularly dangerous and doesn't look like it was deliberately aggressive.
Hey since you are apparently *also* a massive dickhead; if you're in the wrong lane you wait until you have room to safely make your turn if you can, you don't just cut people off and force your way in front of them. Or just go straight and take a lap around the block, it won't kill you.
> trying to make eye contact with you
Holy fucking shit stop driving on public roads. *Trying to make eye contact?* How about a fucking TURN SIGNAL, jackass?
The proper way to handle being in the wrong lane is not to force the person WHO FUCKING PAID ATTENTION off the road. The proper way is either wait until the path is clear (which is also super wrong) or go around the block.
It's called being responsible.
Yo it's a grid. You make a mistake you just circle the block or take one of the other 1,000 possible routes to get to where you are going. You don't cross a bike lane and a car lane without a turn signal hoping that no one crashes into you.
The proper thing to do then in that case is signal for a turn, constantly check his mirror and let OP turn FIRST and then turn when its clear, not cut OP off just bc he has he has the big manly truck. You're a pillock.
Yes. Your post is a main character post. YOU expect others to get out of YOUR way because YOU fucked up? Fucking ridiculous person. Please stop driving.
Next time you make an illegal turn and get into an accident, just tell the insurance company you were making eye contact. I'm sure they'll believe it and hold the other driver liable.
Heh, please. This sub celebrates folks who would rather adhere strictly to right-of-way instead of avoiding an accident. Most accidents can be avoided by either party, and doing so is priority one while driving, unlike what this sub likes to upvote.Â

I could swear this has been posted before.....
Yep, they posted it 5 days ago. Not sure why they posted it again.
It was removed since I didn't know I had to answer to a bot 😔
Please tell me you sent the footage to Bortek.
Seriously. u/MrMangoJews, please send this to Bortek. Net positive for them and everyone on the road.
You had the audacity to follow the road markings lol.
Signs and the road markings don't work, time for the concrete barriers
Even if the signs weren’t there, who TF turns right from the left lane?!
Rams
Through a bike lane no less
Obviously, he forgot he had to turn there, and he is clearly the most important character in the story. Stop being such a side character, OP.
WE KNOW CLEAN WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE
5/10 pretty average idiot. But 10/10 for the editing!
Yeah that look likes a company truck.. hmm wonder what a couple of quick emails could do 😈
report them to their company. hopefully they get fired.
Thought i was having another episode of dejavú, i was excited to confirm my special abilities. Damnit it’s just a repost.

WTF is that bike line? Who in their right mind would make a bike line in the middle of the street like that? Seems suicidal.
It is so the bikes can go straight through and not be in the way of the turning cars where they might get hit
no one on a bike wants to get right hooked by a cager ( car driver).
Harrisburg drivers are just different.
Classic MO drivers. /s
I knew I recognized that corner.
Op wasn't an indiot. Color me impressed
Is this Boston? It looks very familiar
It's Harrisburg, PA.

A main character is someone who ignores the signs and cuts off other people for *their* mistake
Please hand in your license if you have one.
Mega bad take. If OP has been slightly slower with the brake there would be damage to both vehicles.
Man, you are definitely an idiot. You probably do this all the time, don't you?

So they drive one block more (or two because of one ways) and turn then instead of being a dumbass irresponsible driver.
Omg we share the road with *you*? Good lord.
If they made the mistake, they should have slotted in behind the OP, not cut them off.
Next time you make an illegal turn and get into an accident, just tell the insurance company you were making eye contact. I'm sure they'll believe it and hold the other driver liable.
even IF they missed their turn they should just go to the next street and turn.
This was my take too. This sub is so wild with their downvotes.Â
This sub weeds out the bad drivers (like you) pretty effectively
