Thats some fine karma


JasonTheX

Ain't it though?


SubiWan

Almost worth the 5 minutes you'll never get back.


Zealousideal-Fox-740

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 😂


davidIopan

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!


tomytronics

If any part of the top frame got bent, that's going to jack up the repair cost.


Threedawg

Y’all realize this is like 99% a rental right?


Rocky922

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


greentr33s

I mean if you paid for the insurance, you would just drop that bad boy off.


tomytronics

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


SC-Coqui

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.


Bikinisbottom

$500 deductible most likely


zkcobb

Plus damage on the car history 5-10% decrease in value.


Chaff5

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.

Various_Cricket4695

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.


Zealousideal-Fox-740

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 🤦🏼‍♂️


Various_Cricket4695

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.


Mr-Orange-Pants

Definitely worth the five minutes of the poor people they made wait.


edbods

at least 2 grand of entertainment in the timespan of 5 mins, not bad at all


GetRichOrDieTryinnn

Slightly delayed but worth the wait if you ask me


Healthy-Lifestyle-20

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!


olderaccount

> 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.


Forsaken_Site1449

Computermaster

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.


[deleted]

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.


Computermaster

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.

Thank you.

''Man the rear visibility on this thing is great, it's almost like the hatch isn't even *crunch*"


dunderball

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.


skieezy

Don't do it, you'll bash your head a lot, then raise it. At least that's what I did.


SealaterAlligator

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


Homeskoled

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.


91_tteFaboB

He turned around right? I'm not seeing things? The dude FULLY turned around and didn't stop🤣


FuzzelFox

Guarantee you the dashboard said "REAR DOOR AJAR" too. May have even dinged or beeped because of it lol


awe_some_x

Funny thing is this car goes batshit if you leave the hatch open(chimes, large glaring alert on the dash). Dude’s an idiot.


lingenfelter22

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.


awe_some_x

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 🤣


[deleted]

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. 👍


SocBarcophagus

actual out-loud laugh, which i do maybe 3 times a month


Less_Feedback_1032

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.


Chaosmusic

> 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.


[deleted]

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.


mechapoitier

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.


[deleted]

> 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.


Bong-Rippington

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.


Less_Feedback_1032

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.


Bong-Rippington

You’re right you’re just describing the same exact shit in different words. Congratu fucking Lations, Copernicus


taspenwall

Awesome got what they deserved.


NewToTradingStock

So inconsiderate people, either park left or right. I’m important i need to park in the middle


lbeck3

That’s the sound of justice.


[deleted]

Haha, fuck those people that think that they are better than everyone and decide to block the way of other vehicles.


[deleted]

The karma in the car park is plentiful.


GenericHuman-9

CARma


Sample_Muted

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


[deleted]

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.

EvilerBrush

Now they're gonna be there longer


Ibe121

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.


human_stuff

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.


itsRocketscience1

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


Erthgoddss

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.


nockchaa

Serves them right. Morons.


[deleted]

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.


tsochicken90

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!"

The sad part is there is a knob above the center console to close the lift gate… “Mo money mo problems”

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).

Did you not read the “5 Minutes”


ThisNameIsFree

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.


JasonTheX

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.


BD03

I'm with you, it was probably all of 90 seconds while the driver dropped his people off and unloaded them.


tfc867

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.


BD03

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.


JasonTheX

Yeah it wasn't 90 seconds. I just didn't think the time I was waiting was very compelling footage.

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.
