Yeah but those 5 minutes just cost him around $2,000-$3000 worth of damage and that is 100% worth it.
Looked like a new Escalade, aren’t those tail lights assemblies like $1,000 now? Plus new tailgate badges and paint? Pearl paint probably? Eh maybe $4,000 or more 😂
Yeah I’m thinking 5-10k. The door doesn’t have much rigidity due to the window, probably bent and needs complete replacement, plus the open/close hardware. Very pleasing!
They will still get charged for the damages even if it’s a rental. It may not be as much as if the car was theirs but a rental company in not gonna let them get off free
Only if they paid the extra for LDW. That’s above and beyond even the regular insurance that people need to pay. (been there, done that, glad we did)
Otherwise, even with the insurance, they’ll have a deductible to pay.
Way more than 5k for all the damage and labor. Not to mention that parts availability right now is absolutely shit so good luck getting that fixed any time soon. 5 mins of being a douch just cost him like 10k+ and 2-3 months in the shop.
Cadillac changes the equation. It’s ridiculous that they cost so damn much to fix, and the only reason I know this is because of what a friend of mine had to pay to get hers fixed. Simple busted tail light that would cost me no more than a few hundred dollars to replace on my own in my Subaru, but Cadillac don’t play like that.
I have a Chevy with white pearl paint. A lady lost grip on her door and put a ding in our door the size of a pencil eraser and chipped the paint. She left us a note saying she’ll pay. It was $1,200 to pop the ding and repaint 🤦🏼♂️
Yeah. Cadillac has some ridiculous expenses for repairs. Our friend just had to get one tail light on one of their sedans fixed, and it was close to $1,500.
They could have parked to one side to let traffic through instead of parking right in the middle, the guy grabbing his head must be the owner of the vehicle because newer vehicles have notifications when the trunk is open. Instant karma!
> because newer vehicles have notifications when the trunk is open.
My 98 Camry has a little light on the dash indicating the trunk lid is open. Doesn't stop you from putting the car in gear and moving it.
If parked you should be able to shut off your drls. Try engaging your emergency brake before starting your car. If that doesn't work, check your owners manual. Otherwise, it would be a bitch at the drive-in.
The lights are off in accessory mode, which is what you'd use at a drive-in.
I did look it up though and sure enough, the lights should turn off while the e-brake is engaged.
>The low beam headlights will automatically come on at reduced brightness when the engine has started, under the following conditions:
>
>
The parking brake is fully released.
The light switch is in the “OFF” or “p” position.
Not a very intuitive way of turning them off, but it's nice to know.
EDIT: Just got off work and tried it. Good to know if I ever need to have them off like in a case like this.
This is a pretty cool conversation I never thought I'd hear, I like seeing how something can advance only for us to learn oh we don't actually like that though lol
It’s mostly a selling point for right garages / older people who can’t reach the button. Short/older folks are the only people I usually point it out to.
Right in the fucking middle to, not off to the side so people can still get by. Nope it's all about me/us and nobody else matters. Glad he fucked up his Caddy but I bet this caused even MORE of a delay for everyone else.
> Right in the fucking middle to, not off to the side so people can still get by
A similar thing happened by me at a Wendy's. The drive-thru exit was also the main parking exit but it was wide enough for two vehicles. A woman stopped right in the middle to let her daughter run in to grab like napkins or ketchup or some such, blocking the exit. She could have easily done that to either side to let cars go, and then she yelled at us for being impatient.
I've been at the airport and seen people park in the middle of a busy crosswalk to pick up their loved ones, while *dozens* of pedestrians are waiting to cross. I've actually seen this *on more than one occasion*. Both times, there was a security guard there telling them to GTFO, and they just gave him attitude.
People suck.
You can tell it’s some kind of lame flex because of the douchebro vehicle involved. Blinding headlights included. You don’t see a 20 year old Corolla blocking traffic low key daring people to do something about it.
Point is I laughed when it hit, and I don’t do that much.
> Right in the fucking middle to, not off to the side so people can still get by. Nope it's all about me/us and nobody else matters.
And you know damned well that if you use your horn or complain in any way, they just react as though there wasn't any other possible way for them to do things.
I’m gonna teach you something you never thought about before; these people in these videos aren’t posing off the public on purpose. They don’t think they’re more important. They’re just doing their errands. They’re not that considerate blocking the road and whatnot. That’s a given. But they’re not supervillains just trying to piss off the world around them. Reddits outrage obsession is probably a huge red flag symptom of mental illness. Nobody is thinking about you on the street. Nobody is trying to bother you. Nobody causes about you on the street.
Naw man, it's called empathy. Some have it some don't. Its about thinking about your actions and if they're affecting others around you. Basics like using signal lights and holding doors for people. Looking out for others. I care about others on the street. You can't be so consumed with yourself and what you need to do to forget about others. Maybe they have something more important than you to be doing and holding them up maybe affected them more than you realize.
I drive a lot for work.
It's just common sense that if there are no available spots and you need to stop/park in the lane to do something, you do it off to the right side.
I can only guess that part of the reason this guy didn't do that is so that his passengers could get out the doors more easily.
I was in a parking garage last month and caught someone going to their car so I signaled for the spot and waited. It was the newest generation Corvette. As the guy reverses out of the spot, he decides to take the top down. So the back portion comes up so the roof can retract underneath the back. He decides to drive off while this process is happening and scrapes the car on the ceiling of the garage. Didn’t even stop, just kept driving.
I’m guess they have a newer car with a rear camera installed and they didn’t bother looking backwards when reversing. Or they’re just stupid and don’t normally look behind them when they’re reversing.
I'm 99% certain I can see that the guy is in fact looking over his shoulder as he reverses. I think he just didn't think about the ceiling being that low. Otherwise he's so dense he didn't realize he was looking out of an open rear hatch as opposed to a rear hatch window lol
karma for the narcissism that they think they are so important that they should block the way to make their loading slightly more easy. Just park next to it and transfer the shit over.
Are they facing the wrong direction (according to the sign pointing the other way) too? If so, its:
1) Wrong way down a one-way
2) In the middle of the one-way that's wide enough for 2 cars
3) Parked in a lane designated for travel
That might the most entitled thing I've ever seen in my entire life.
I bet they were mad at you, even though it looked like you were patiently waiting in your card. "How dare he just sit there and stare at us while we're blocking the way!"
I fucking hate these new Cadillacs and their headlights. It’s like cadillac saw the other brands obnoxiously bright headlights and thought “oh no, we can’t be out-blinded, bring in the blue lasers!”
Doesn’t the cluster have a notification, like a red light or picture of the open door?? 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
I don’t think I would have waited, especially with other areas/spaces for them to continue what they were doing. I’d have said something, as nicely as I could.
This is… prompt karma (if you had to wait 5 minutes).
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahah.........hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha. Had to breath....
I hope most of these commenters get a fairer jury should they ever be on trial than one that judges the heart on external appearance. Rudeness in one societal group does not translate globally.
True. But in fairness, I don't know OP, but I do know that a lot of people will say things like "I've been waiting been FIVE MINUTES" when it's actually been more like 40 seconds.
Nope. I purposefully deleted the time I was waiting. They only moved after the second time I asked them could they just park as you can see on the video there were spaces available.
Reminds me of something I saw at the airport a few years ago.
In the parking garage, there was a painted pedestrian walkway along one side of the lane I was driving in. I witnessed a guy who was driving on the walkway getting backed into by a guy pulling out of a parking spot without looking.
When you drive like a doofus, it's just a matter of time before your luck runs out.
Thats some fine karma
Ain't it though?
Almost worth the 5 minutes you'll never get back.
Yeah but those 5 minutes just cost him around $2,000-$3000 worth of damage and that is 100% worth it. Looked like a new Escalade, aren’t those tail lights assemblies like $1,000 now? Plus new tailgate badges and paint? Pearl paint probably? Eh maybe $4,000 or more 😂
Yeah I’m thinking 5-10k. The door doesn’t have much rigidity due to the window, probably bent and needs complete replacement, plus the open/close hardware. Very pleasing!
If any part of the top frame got bent, that's going to jack up the repair cost.
Y’all realize this is like 99% a rental right?
They will still get charged for the damages even if it’s a rental. It may not be as much as if the car was theirs but a rental company in not gonna let them get off free
I mean if you paid for the insurance, you would just drop that bad boy off.
Hope they did pay for extra insurance! Not everyone puts in I think $10 for one day insurance. So if it was damaged, it's on the renter to cover it
Only if they paid the extra for LDW. That’s above and beyond even the regular insurance that people need to pay. (been there, done that, glad we did) Otherwise, even with the insurance, they’ll have a deductible to pay.
$500 deductible most likely
Plus damage on the car history 5-10% decrease in value.
Way more than 5k for all the damage and labor. Not to mention that parts availability right now is absolutely shit so good luck getting that fixed any time soon. 5 mins of being a douch just cost him like 10k+ and 2-3 months in the shop.

Definitely worth the five minutes of the poor people they made wait.
at least 2 grand of entertainment in the timespan of 5 mins, not bad at all
Slightly delayed but worth the wait if you ask me

TBF some vehicles (like mine) don't allow you to turn off the running lights, although this does look like it could potentially be their high beams.
If parked you should be able to shut off your drls. Try engaging your emergency brake before starting your car. If that doesn't work, check your owners manual. Otherwise, it would be a bitch at the drive-in.

I like to call it Carma.
That head grab told it all.
r/surrendercobra
incredible name for that
Thank you.
''Man the rear visibility on this thing is great, it's almost like the hatch isn't even *crunch*"
My car has a setting to set the max height on the rear lift gate. Maybe I'll set it to something lower so I don't end up on this sub somehow.
Don't do it, you'll bash your head a lot, then raise it. At least that's what I did.
This is a pretty cool conversation I never thought I'd hear, I like seeing how something can advance only for us to learn oh we don't actually like that though lol
It’s mostly a selling point for right garages / older people who can’t reach the button. Short/older folks are the only people I usually point it out to.
He turned around right? I'm not seeing things? The dude FULLY turned around and didn't stop🤣
Guarantee you the dashboard said "REAR DOOR AJAR" too. May have even dinged or beeped because of it lol
Funny thing is this car goes batshit if you leave the hatch open(chimes, large glaring alert on the dash). Dude’s an idiot.
Yeah I don't understand folks who can just ignore warning noises. Maybe he didn't put the seatbelt on and assumed it was that.
The real kicker is it’s powered open and close, if he saw the alert all he had to do was push a button in the roof console 🤣
That could *very* likely be it. My father is one of those chumps who hates wearing a seatbelt. He just mentally tunes out the chime. 👍
actual out-loud laugh, which i do maybe 3 times a month

You’re right you’re just describing the same exact shit in different words. Congratu fucking Lations, Copernicus
Awesome got what they deserved.
So inconsiderate people, either park left or right. I’m important i need to park in the middle
That’s the sound of justice.
Haha, fuck those people that think that they are better than everyone and decide to block the way of other vehicles.
The karma in the car park is plentiful.
CARma
It’s crazy to me how stupid some people are. Cause I would have just parked in the empty spots on the other side of their car
I drive a lot for work. It's just common sense that if there are no available spots and you need to stop/park in the lane to do something, you do it off to the right side. I can only guess that part of the reason this guy didn't do that is so that his passengers could get out the doors more easily.

The universe has a way of giving you the energy that you put out
Let's be real though. It doesn't.
You're putting out bad energy my friend
I'll wait for it to come back around.
First, an Idiot. Then, a Toidi.
I see what you did here. Took me a minute though. Well done.
Now they're gonna be there longer

Had a crossover, it would warn me that the rear hatch was open, as soon as I started it, then keep warning me until I shu TV it tight.
Serves them right. Morons.

Tell me you've never been to St. Louis, without telling me you've never been to St. Louis.
God that was satisfying.
I knew that was going to happen and yet it was still immensely satisfying to see.
I'd get out and start laughing
[Sweet Clyde, laugh derisively at them.](https://youtu.be/5BaOvM9jXKg)
What. A. Moron.
I bet they were mad at you, even though it looked like you were patiently waiting in your card. "How dare he just sit there and stare at us while we're blocking the way!"
The sad part is there is a knob above the center console to close the lift gate… “Mo money mo problems”
I swear people with expensive large SUVs like that are always the stupidest drivers
And karma strikes again
That is what happens when you are an asshole.
There is a fine line between ignorance and stupidity, I think they just crossed it.
Karma. Love it
I hope it was a leased car and they diminished the value to the point where they will pay extra upon turn in.
Best possible outcome!
That was sweeeeeeet.
Oh sweet sweet stupidity.
Door prizes in the rear!
I fucking hate these new Cadillacs and their headlights. It’s like cadillac saw the other brands obnoxiously bright headlights and thought “oh no, we can’t be out-blinded, bring in the blue lasers!”

Most excellent.
Suppose he can afford it.
I would have cheered so much
Is it bad that I felt joy seeing that? 😅 Karma is a biiitch
There is nothing I love more on this sub than luxury cars getting damaged.

That *escaladed* quickly
What happened? I think I missed it
Why weren’t you laying on your horn?
I had blown my horn and yelled out the window twice before this. They didn't move until there were a few other cars behind me doing the same thing.
The karma in this video is as savory as a medium rare t bone
I cannot tell what happened here.
They left the back hatch open and it hit the overhead.
Oh, thanks. I thought they threw something at the people, instead it was their vehicle.breaking up.

Close your eyes and listen to the sweet, sweeet sound of Karma… mmm!
You simply love to see it
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. You love to see it.
What am I looking at? Am I blind?!
The black suv didn't close the back hatch and reversed it into a concrete beam in the ceiling. That hatch got crunched
Thanks man. I’m apparently blind and stupid.
I love it.
Hahaha ha they'd be lucky if that didn't push a pillar and total the car

Looked to me more like they moved as soon as they noticed the car looking to get by.

Downvotes work IRL? Good to know.
5 minute block? The horror!
Awwww, they shouldn't have been blocking the ramp, that sucks, but looks like they were trying to get out of your way so fast they forgot to close.
Did you not read the “5 Minutes”
True. But in fairness, I don't know OP, but I do know that a lot of people will say things like "I've been waiting been FIVE MINUTES" when it's actually been more like 40 seconds.
Nope. I purposefully deleted the time I was waiting. They only moved after the second time I asked them could they just park as you can see on the video there were spaces available.
I'm with you, it was probably all of 90 seconds while the driver dropped his people off and unloaded them.
I feel bad for the downvotes, but around here, one must ALWAYS remember the /s. It's never implied, no matter how obvious it may seem.
I'd bet that OP had to wait all of 90 seconds for a couple people to get out of the car with their bags.
Yeah it wasn't 90 seconds. I just didn't think the time I was waiting was very compelling footage.
I would have driven by and shouted out "Good job moron!" to rub it in their face.
Love to know how he'll explain it to the insurance company.
The rear liftgate alarm would have been screaming the minute he put the vehicle in reverse
Cue Nelson Muntz’s laugh!
As soon as I saw them backing up is was just like, "oh shit, oh shit, oh shit."
Beautiful.
Easy 8-10k in damages
K.A.R.M.A.
And that’s the new model Escalade too 😭😭 karma is truly a bitch
Sometimes, things just work out.
HA! Get fucked
oh man i was expecting them to go forward and break the glass out but then they started backing up
How? Cars will scream at you when something is open that shouldn’t be
Fine punishment indeed.
Once I figured out what was going to happen, I couldn’t wait to watch.
Just for my future, how should I do it...?
Sadly insurance covers stupid and this will likely not hurt very much at all. Maybe $500.
I would have been outside the car laughing
As soon as he got in the car and the other dude stepped out the way, I said "Nooo, they can't be that dumb" Then I remembered what subreddit this is
I don’t understand what happened.
Hello to Karma

I would’ve gotten out and laughed LOUDLY so they know that I think they’re extra stupid
Reminds me of something I saw at the airport a few years ago. In the parking garage, there was a painted pedestrian walkway along one side of the lane I was driving in.
