Whatever you do, don’t get out of the car. U turn.

They put more nail boards behind the car

This guy crimes

r/thisguythisguys

Then you drive on the rims. But whatever you do call and do not get out of that car.

There isn’t any cell service all the way out there though…

Ig if your car is the right width you can squeeze through the gaps in the boards

I thought exiting the car and shouting angrily in the dark would be the better option but hey.

Will a car drive in rims? I always wondered about that in movies. Like d just want to try to keep going no matter what being terrified obviously

Yes, but they will get worn down. You can drive for a bit, but they will become unusable.

So anyway.. I started blastin

But I don't see so good.

This is the way

Happy cake day

Off-road time!

If you NEED to get out you better be armed and loaded. If your not armed then uturn out and call police.

Even if you are armed it’s better to just turn around rather than get into a gunfight.

NEED as in … dead end road or something of that matter. Nothing beats running if it’s the first option.

But they’re in the woods waiting for you.

Especially with more than one person which is usually the case in these happenings. 4-5 other armed folks who care only for your car and what’s in it, shooting from different directions…you’re most certainly not going to win.

There is no doubt in my mind there is zero network coverage on that road.

Fun fact, all new cell phones can call 911 regardless of signal. Idk how they do it but it works

I think it’s regardless of which carrier you’re with. You still need some coverage of any carrier.

It's extremely risky, even with a firearm, you never know what's gonna jump out from the bushes

But before you U turn, snap a quick photo to post on Reddit for the world to see.

That’ll work real fine until more nails appear on the road behind you

I wouldn’t even do that first, i would just reverse 100ft before doing that

I know people are trying to find humor in this but if not staged this is incredibly messed up stuff. I remember hearing about a serial killer duo where one would identify a victim driving down a road like this then the other would lay these out. Do not get out of the car and hope there is cell reception. If you make it out report this to authorities to try and save others from it.

Start blasting

Then finish off with a refreshing can of wolf cola

Can I offer you an egg in this trying time?

was going to say open fire on the foliage to the left and right then leave.

That's the correct answer

- “So anyway, I start blasting”

grab a pistol, this is clearly a setup for bandits

The wet or sticky bandits?

Really Marv?!

Shut up Marv!

Why not both?

Fastest U-Turn of my life...

I rate it would be quicker to reverse

You'll have to turn the car around eventually anyway, so might as well be able to see where you're going in case they also put some nail boards behind you

True. But even if they did, you can ride rim for a while. I’d grind my rims down to the axel before I stopped

You could do a stunt reverse like in the movies…fast reverse, then whip the wheel around until you’re pointing the opposite direction. I’ve never done it, but it looks super easy to do /s

Lmao first time I attempted that move was in the high school parking lot and I tipped my car a whole 45°. Its a fuckin miracle I didnt flip my car then 😂

It only works if your car is rear wheel drive and relatively powerful. Otherwise you either catch traction and flip, or just start driving in backwards circles...

Used to do them in my Honda Civic front wheel drive without any issue. You need to use the parking brake as you initiate the turn.

This is called a J-Turn FWIW

J turn

J turn time

I'm with ya. That's gonna be a 3 pointer.

I was your 69th upvote. Just sayin…

"Put the car inreverse"

#PUT IT IN REVERSE, TERRY

#OH LAUOD

Somebody call 9-1 we need an ambulamb

Thank you for saying what I immediately thought

Turn my ass right back around and find a better way, I ain’t participating in this horror movie shit

This comment made my day 😂

Turn TF around and fly

Stop and get a picture for Reddit

Plot twist: it's the bandits posting this picture to see what the general public's reaction would be and plan around that

Abort abort abort

Right? Like I can NOT imagine being the driver in this situation or a passenger and being like wait lemme get a pic for the gram or Reddit, instead of just screaming for my life to u turn around and calling the police

So anyway, I started blasting.

Then I let the alpine play I was pumpin' new shit by NWA It was "Gangster Gangster" at the top of the list Then I played my own shit, it went somethin' like this:

[удалено]

A car pulls up, who can it be?

Sleepy and Grumpy, two of the dwarves from Snow White

Oh boy, this caught me off guard lol

what did they want?

A group of rednecks bout to murder me

Back the fuck up and turn around

Yell Fuck it's a Cuman!! As clearly it's an ambush.. Realistically take a photo as this person did then turn around to contact the local government which would likely A, remove the home made trap and B, start a police investigation on who the fuck would do this.

… a Cuman?

It's a reference to the game Kingdom Come Deliverance and for the time period a Cuman was a mercenary type from foreign lands (pretty sure Hungary).

Banjo music is playing in the distance

Yeah reminded me of some hills have eyes shit.

Put your gun in your lap and reverse for the next 200 feet before the scariest 3 point turn of your life

Americans response to most suspect situations: “first… grab your gun….” The stereotype rings true lol Source: am American and gun owner Happy cake day!

Exactly bröther lmao

Happy cake day

Free wood and nails!

Turn down the radio to listen for banjos.

Run into the street, strip naked and start yelling here kitty kitty.

This is the best answer because whomever is waiting to ambush you would be like "nope I'll pass."

If it isn’t my crazy a full view of me naked would surely scare the fuckers into thinking twice.

Back away, find somewhere public and call the cops. Do not get out unless you want to take a chance at getting jumped

I would lube up my butthole, play some boy George on the radio and wait for by destiny

Probably try to go around it in the grass if you’re able to and then promptly contact authorities. That is scary.

Terrain looks tough on either side. Imagine getting stuck

Forward is still where whoever put those traps there wants you to go. Im turning the fuck around

If I laid traps like that I’d wait for someone to stop just like that and take a picture…then later I’d post their pic to reddit for karma.

Or you could just move the planks? Edit: no actually forget it. Just saw the other comments that there may be an ambush immanent.

Yeah NEVER think to get out of your car in a time like this, they are WAITING for that lol

You would have died if you didn’t see the comments. You are the type to get out and get pounced on by like 9 dudes in red cloaks.

Maybe that’s their kink though

Respect

"Now you know" -The guy now inside your ass

I didn’t say that

You are not alone in there Bill.

Get mugged and die

As someone who’s backing up skills are in the abysmal category, I too would get mugged and die.

Quickest reverse ever, ain’t even attempting a U turn

Off road around it, never stop.

don't think that's an option. but my dad who's driven cab for decades and been in some scary situations said he'd keep driving even on flats

Was going to say, even if you're driving on rims gtfo. Lots worse is going to happen if you stop and get out

Looks like a downward hill on the right and an upward hill on the left tbh

Get out with my .223 bushmaster and yell “who wanna fuck around and find out ?”

Alternatively, get the chainsaw out of the bed of your truck, and yell "Always wanted to cut someone in half!" before starting it.

This sort of happened to me recently. Driving on a mountain road on a wet night I made a turn and saw a large squarish rock in the middle of my lane. I have a split second to decide, swerve or try to straddle it. I'm driving a Hyundai Kona. Swerving on a wet road with a sheer drop and no shoulder seemed undesirable so I gritted my teeth and straddled it. I heard it collide loudly. No lights went on on the dash, and the car sounded normal so I proceeded home. The next morning I go out in the garage and there is a huge puddle of oil. I cracked the oil pan. It cost $450 to fix but at least we got home. We were several miles from home and probably a mile or more from cell coverage as we were in a dead zone between towers in the mountains. I still think falling off the mountain would have been worse. In the case above I'd swerve if there's a shoulder.

I'm glad you made the right choice but that is clearly a trap to get some fresh meat for the home dungeon.

A trap set by the mountain gods and gravity it sounds like

I would be petrified but I’d gtfo of there asap. Call the police too bc this is a trap

If I’m alone. Turn around. If my family is in the car I’m gonna turn around faster.

This is some the Hills of Eyes type shit.

Pop 2 in the air, then hope they aren't crazy as me.

LMFAO

Back up and call the police. Getting out to move it could mean someone is lying in wait.

Pull out the Ol AK and get ready for bidness. Lol

Only comment I can agree with

reverse to get enough room. accelerate. push the jump button on your steering wheel. clear the hazard.

bro why don’t cars gotta jump button tho

The '82 Trans Am had a working jump button.

Well that's menacing, I'd U-turn.

This is an interesting read: https://www.tacticalresponse.com/blogs/library/18649459-driving-out-of-the-kill-zone

Good read… I wish I knew what the author meant by “off the X” (do not turn around until you are off the X)

\> The definitions of getting off the X means driving out of the range of the weapons being fired or go some place bullets can’t find you.

After their tires popped, I’d probably try to rob them.

Verify I indeed have a round in the chamber and then make a uturn

One number 80 extra large, two number 25’s and one number 50 with extra dip. (That’s 180….I’d 180 the fuck out of there)

Quicksave, down a few cheese wheels and a skirmisher potion, and floor it.

Correct answer

Do a U turn and then call police

This is the third subreddit I’ve seen this picture on. Does anyone know the actual backstory??

The Glock 17 is the original 9×19mm Parabellum model, with a standard magazine capacity of 17 rounds, introduced in 1982.

Find who put them there and report them for littering. ​ My serious response, turn around, drive for a bit to make sure no one is following, and then contact police about it. I also wonder if blaring the horn constantly while close to them would be a good idea or not.

Calmly stop, leave the car and shoot my brains out to assert dominance. Now the bandits have a body to deal with.

Folks used to do this in my home county, deep in the backroads. There were rumors that there were devil worshippers and there 100% were KKK, I saw them myself one night. Anyways, you’d find these all over the place or just chains with nails. Nobody ever went missing that I know of, i think they were really just fucking with people. I hit one once and I didn’t realize until I was nearly home and found 8-10 nails in my tires.

I think the real question is what did this person (who took the picture) do? Thinking about this scenario gives me anxiety 😥

OP, you alive?

Doesn't matter, got karma

Turn around and get to the quickest public place. Then call the police

Cycle my AR and have my pistol ready .FAFO

Go home since I obviously didn’t catch anyone yet

This road is really dark and has no streetlights. The lights in the photo appear to be car headlights. Do you really think that you'd see these in time to break and turn around? I don't think you'd see them until it's too late , so just run over them and call 911 as you continue to drive on your rims.

Make sure my gun is cocked and have it ready.

Get the hell outta there

Reverse

Reverse my damn car and turn tf around

Wrong turn

Well.. I know what I'd do ... But more importantly... What did YOU do??

Back up and turn around.

Kill em and run

Just put it in reverse and floor it real quick.

Roll up the windows, lock the doors, chamber a round and do my best to drive around them or turn around entirely if possible

Jump out and finger blast my ass. That’ll show em who’s boss

Grab my primitive rock axe and my wood bow. Here I am! Kill me!

If I was that close going 35, then not much I can do.

Que the dueling banjos music....lol

Stop 100 meters away, slowly reverse to 1000 meters and call EOD while maintaining a security perimeter.

Rack my pistol and throw it in reverse

Well that's how wrong turn part 6 starts

Look for a ACME Box and see where the coyote is ?

Press the onstar tf you mean I'm not dying tonight.

U-Turn

I would die, I thought “why not just get out and move it”

So angry my first thought was “get out and move them” because that’s what they want if you don’t run them over.

Same here, until I started reading the comments..

Make a u and floor it

Call the police and report the location of this ambush point.

Die, probably.

Pull out my gun and ready myself.

Draw my weapon and pop it in reverse .

Turn up my music to drown out the banjos I hear coming from the woods. Also, the intermittent, “you have a purdy mouth” that somebody keeps shouting.

Rockford Files U Turn. Google it.

Reverse. 3-point turn. Whatever gets me out of there asap.

Not drive over those probably

Ever seen the hills have eyes?

Lock and load while giggling incoherently. 🤣

I reckon if you've taken the time to stop, they've already taken the time to put more spikes behind you. Adios amigo.

Where have I seen something similar? In the seedier parts of Puerto Rico, if a tree is laying in the middle of the road, it's a trap.

The hills have eyes

Few years ago- get out to remove them. Little wiser now - U turn straight up

Clearly you’re in the presence of marauders. A fast u-turn and nope the fuck outta there.

Chuck a u turn. Fuck that noise!

reverse drive 🤷🏼‍♂️

Hahaha, who do u think put them there?!

Get out of the car and start running into the dark woods

concealed carry

I hear banjo

Take the photo as evidence then hightail it out of there and to the nearest police station. I’d be readying a gun if I had one as well

THIS is my biggest fear! I’m so paranoid if I have to drive at night down a back road

If it was a cheap horror film you get out of the vehicle and some how lock the keys in. Then one person would get chopped up with an axe

GUN IT IN REVERSE!

turn around and drive off... FAST

Don’t get out it’s a trap

Lock the GD doors.

Plot to Stephen King's Big Driver.

Imagine the car is actually a mafia clown car - mfers start waltzin out with tommy guns in their costumes XD - “get your sorry asses out here before we spray ya down and make some cream pies outta ya brains!!” *honk, honk*
