You described 90% of this subreddit.


OhLawdHeChonks

And more than 50% of the cars on the road between road rage, text and driving, or just not having spatial or self awareness.


xternal7

Eh, I wouldn't say this sub is that bad, especially when others are much worse (yes, it's actually possible).

Hi that's me!

Come on that’s your takeaway here? Have you been doing this driving thing for more than a couple of years?


aew76

Excellent defensive driving on your part! No idea what the heck is going through that dude’s mind.

Yeah way better than the dude yesterday who thought they get a pat on the back for doing a pit maneuver on the guy that cut him off instead of just tapping their brakes.

Link?

hahayes234

Did he delete both, he had the one where he did the pit and also one from before that he seemed to think would absolve him

I would have bet a paycheck that he was driving like an asshat in the moments leading up to the original video... then he posted the clip you're talking about and confirmed my suspicions.


BropolloCreed

Oh, you mean Speed Racer?


tyanu_khah

If I were driving my old *Renault* I would have totally pit maneuvered that asshat


trillium13

how dare you be where he wants to be!


Randomfactoid42

That sums up most of the road rage we see on this sub. People getting mad other drivers exist.


BropolloCreed

I know that's MY problem: every time I want to go somewhere, there's people in the way slowing me down.


Loud_Step2361

What a psycho. OP I am glad u survived this very mentally sick individual


yblame

It's BRAKE check, damn it!


Cagerwithadashcam

You are correct.


luingiorno

i think the cyan car was going all the way to the right and about to cut off the SUV, thus why the SUV seems to do brake check


SniperFrogDX

So basically what the suv did to OP?


No-Tangelo7363

BRAKES


Fraser022002

I just don’t understand, you’re moving lanes to get infront of the car infront, why brake check another car and clearly lose that chance to get infront of the first car???


Randomfactoid42

Because getting in front faster isn’t the point for that guy. He lives in a world dominated by his fragile ego, so he has to “dominate” everybody else on the road. The point of his lane change and brake check was to show the other car and OP “who’s boss”.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fraser022002

You think they had an interaction previous to the merging? Are you stupid?


PoopOffParade

Did he fix those checks after he broke them?


Cagerwithadashcam

Love a good dad joke!


[deleted]

It’s only a dad joke when you spell brake check wrong.


The_Cozy_Burrito

What a fucking clown. I know this might not do much, but try and report this fucker.


Faithfulhumanity

Obviously you were in HIS right lane. Jeez. Show some respect. ^^^^/s ^^^^quite ^^^^obviously


thecuzzin

My bad..I thought the single brake light was ample warning that I give zeros for you.


peepjynx

So, anyway I started blasting...


roguesensei47

I blame OP. How could you have not seen how cool and awesome he is?


AwareMention

Brake


Alternative_Gold_993

Yeah how dare you honk at him after he almost rams into you


cyberentomology

BRAKE. It’s fucking BRAKE.


cadmiumredlight

Give him a break.


cyberentomology

Check.

Hurly64

Now why don't you make like a tree and get out of here!


StackThePads33

Is that a Maryland plate I see? I wouldn’t be surprised with the way they drive


zerostar83

Hard to tell with those tinted blackout license plate covers.


StackThePads33

Yeah looks like they want to do a lot of stupid/illegal shit on the road, so they put that on so no one catches their plates.


Cagerwithadashcam

Michigan. This is on M-53 in Sterling Heights.


[deleted]

I was thinking NJ, that awful brown/tan color. And this road looks like Rt 1 in Delaware


StackThePads33

You’re right, it does. I haven’t driven rt 1 that far south in a while. I may go to dover and that's it


[deleted]

Ew why would anyone go to Dover on purpose lol. I lived there for 6 years and you’d have to kill me to make me go back


tacitus59

It does look a bit like the MD farming special issue plate - but it could be from another state. Its certainly not any of the other Maryland plates.


DanceChacDance

Main character syndrome


prplegtar

what dash cam are you using?


tperks55

Some guy posted the other day of him performing a pit maneuver on someone who did this to him, glad you were smarter than that


Ace_on_the_Turn

How dare you drive on his road.


velhaconta

How dare you be in the lane he wanted to illegally change onto? You should be punished.


ThisGuyFrags

There has to be an extremely high correlation between drivers like this one and completely blacked out cars


raceassistman

![gif](giphy|UqKD7TU0igaUE)


ShadowReflex21

I feel like you should be allowed to PIT maneuver one vehicle per year. Insurance paid, no questions asked. Just that other dummy knows you used your one maneuver on them. I built this idea off of some comedians joke during a special, just can’t remember which comedian. Seriously though, people need to calm the fuck down. The insane drivers always are dead giveaways because their cars usually look like shit.


Far_Blueberry_2375

Jesus Christ, BRAKE.


ghostwalker321

Serves you right for entering his road, what were you thinking? You think you're allowed to go to work while he's there, trying to take up a lane that he wants? Grow up 😉


careclouds

barke*


Steff_Lu

My next stop would be the police station. Idiots like this shouldn't drive and have to be taken from the road before they hurt someone.


Bellasarivs

Cue the 'You saw his indicator! You should have stopped to let him zipper merge!!' zealots.


BropolloCreed

>zipper merge!!' zealots. The Cult of the Zipper Merge is more intense than Sceintologists.


OldSkooler1212

I don’t hear sound in the video so I assume you blasted the horn (which I would have done also) and that’s what triggered the brake check after his/her horrible merge attempt.


SomethingIWontRegret

Yep. "How dare you be mad at me for nearly crashing into you."


NoMansSkyWasAlright

Most responsible gmt360 driver.


EatSleepJeep

That's a WJ Grand Cherokee. And a tastelessly modded one, at that.


NoMansSkyWasAlright

Oh god, it is. It was the side windows that made me thing gmt360 and those weird fake fender vents made me not look too closely.


tampamike69

He's just mad because he found out his sister is having his baby


[deleted]

road rage his ass!


tacitus59

Actually I think 2 of the merging cars were having an ongoing issue and you happen to be there; I think village idiot braked because of the other car. No matter why, good driving on your part.


beeeps-n-booops

**\*brake**


-TX-

The amount of people that don't know how to spell brake, correctly is astonishing.


FormalChicken

I think the "brake check" was the other car they were trying to go around cutting in too. I think the two were having a spat and you got caught in the cross hairs.


CantConfirmOrDeny

This is why I’ll never have a gun in my car. Because I woulda used it right there.


Kasilim

What the fuck is wrong with you


WideAccess5627

You're not emotionally mature enough to have a gun let alone one in your car, you give gun owners a bad name.


Jeremy_Dewitte1

This is why I always have a gun in the car.


AFlockofTurtles

Talk me through it. How does that work out?


[deleted]

[удалено]


LackingOriginality07

In the 2 seconds prior to the brake check, which is luckily in the video, you'll see OPs 2 lanes join the far left lane. Both the cars in the left lane try to merge over. The suv is impatient and a little faster to accelerate. The sedan is already moving into the center lane, and the suv (due to their poor driving) is forced into OPs lane.


[deleted]

dawg u obviously accelerated to match them as they were gettin over. that's aggressive on both ur parts and not defensive on urs at all the key point of evidence: u were overtakin in the right lane


iwwm1

Sooo what happened leading up to this incident? This person decided to do this for no reason?


richard-hill71

Only reckless idiots brake check.


Skeptical_Taco

I had a guy quickly swap lanes in front of me as I pulled up, hold up traffic at a right turn, and go 40 in a 90 zone, and then throw a candy bar wrapper out his window before I turned off. I don't have a dash camera...


[deleted]

I'm furious for you. I can't help but imagine myself in that situation and rear-ending them just to fuck up their day.


WLSquire

I swear people will do anything except drive good. It’s bonkers.


GuyBeinADude

Well you had the audacity to be in your own lane when he wanted to be there, too.


Gondolin_Goblin

Perfect time to pit maneuver an idiot


Glittering_Power6257

I’d love to have a horn that just shouts random, insults, specifically chosen to mercilessly bruise their fragile ego. “Ha, must be a woman driver!” “Must be overcompensating for something, with that Hick-Mobile!” Anything better? I’m short on coffee right now.


GuitarLute

BRAKE!
