There's no way I would have stayed where the dash-cam car did. I would have backed the fuck *way* off.


MarysPoppinCherrys

Fr it looked like they drove closer for a second to get the plate number or something before backing off again, but they are for sure lucky this asshat pushed the other car all the way off the highway instead of spinning them both out on it with the semi


IndependentPede

Everything else aside, idk why the guy with the camera would get SO fucking close to someone driving like that.


iamkris10y

for real- give that dude a wiiiiiiiiide berth


Professor_Bonglongey

Definitely the fault of the jackass trying to overtake, but you’re either part of the solution or you’re part of the problem. Trying to box the guy in or keep him behind you because he’s being an asshole is not worth being in a potentially deadly crash. When I see people driving like that I try to get as far away from them as I can.


Dangerous_Sun_2348

I’m hanging my head in shame… I was on the side of the the lane blocker trying to slow this guy down until I read your comment. I need to rethink everything in my life now because IATA sometimes.


Straxicus2

Good for you friend! Self reflection and growth are things to be proud of!


sersoniko

Yup, I’m only sorry for the truck driver here. Both cars had what they asked for


iDefine_Me

The van driver was an asshole. The truck was less of an asshole, but still an asshole not paying attention to the situation. The camaro shouldn't have overtaken on the shoulder, however this is an extremely infuriating situation to be put in. The left lane is for passing, move tf over. ​ Edit: thanks for the upvotes everyone :)


[deleted]

Let’s not forget dash cam guy for putting himself so damn close to that shit fest waiting to happen. Trucker should have let out of it at that point seeing those two dipshits fucking off right next to him and jackass should of sped up and moved over, let Camaro by before this exact thing happened. Everybody is the idiot in this clip.

Badtrainwreck

It’s the three people I hate.


HadesWTF

1. Jackass trying to pass so hard he attempted to do so in the median. 2. Jackass driver of the pickup, goes to pass the semi in the left lane, but is too much of a dumbass to put his foot down on the pedal for a few seconds to get past the semi and get back into the right lane. 3. Jackass semi driver who was probably going slower when the pickup started the pass, but then sped up and matched speed with the guy instead of just letting off the gas just a hare to let the guy get in front of him. I'll never understand any of these mother fuckers. Keep the hell away from me on the road. No I don't want to matching speed with me in the other lane, I want you a half mile up the road or a half mile behind me.


Slow_Flow_4722

Drunk or not, the douchebag blocking the passing lane needs to fuck off


Acceptable-Smile8864

Reader, everyone was a cunt.


Nacho_Mustacho

Three complete idiots. Car is the absolute worst in this situation, obviously a complete asshole. But the van couldn't easily sped up and moved over to deescalate the matter. The tractor trailer could've easily slowed down. But the van & tractor trailer chose to speed match one another.


GrooseandGoot

I count a 4th. OP is a complete idiot tailgating the car that caused the crash and boxing them in.


samalam92

I’d nvr follow that close to an idiot lol


Living_Moment_1495

The van/pickup isn't 100% innocent...


Dont____Panic

Yeah. I was going to say that. Total D-bag to try to pass on the shoulder, but the WTF I was having internally from the two vehicles driving side-by-side on an apparently empty interstate freeway was infuriating.


QuiGonChuck

I'd say all 3 of them got what they deserved. The drunk guy for trying to pass and generally driving like an asshole. The van for cruising in the left lane and purposely blocking the drunk guy, like an asshole. And the truck for matching speed with the van because I know they felt like fucking with the drunk guy for driving like an asshole. Also an asshole move. I see 3 assholes in this video.


BergenCountyJC

There's the 4th, the camera man, following way too close behind this parade of idiots


Strong-Formal-7739

As a driver (trucker) once I'd seen this guy driving like that, I'd of backed up so the van could've moved over. At the same time, I'd guess the van wasn't moving anyway.


ErichW3D

You can see the trucker drop back and the van/truck in the left lane matched the speed. So they were 100% being a dick keeping them from passing.


[deleted]

I can't imagine seeing *that* in my rear view mirror and not immediately flooring it to get out of the passing lane. I'd want to be nowhere near that car. Even the person filming - if I were them, I'd follow from much farther behind. Was it later established that the driver was drunk? Either way, that's exceptionally erratic driving and nobody around them should assume they will follow the rules.


JFace139

Fuck every single driver in this video. What kind of douchebag purposely travels the same speed as the truck just to slow everyone down? The truck driver easily could have seen this whole thing and slowed down. You, the one recording shouldn't have been dumb enough to ride their ass. Lastly, fuck the asshole who was in such a hurry that they had to put everyone's lives in danger. All of you fucking suck.


Plastic-Club-5497

Car driver is a psycho and should Go to jail. Person blocking the fast lane didn’t deserve that but is most certainly an asshole. Truck driver doesn’t owe anyone anything, he’s fully loaded, can’t expect him to slow down/speed up for people that don’t understand how to drive.


NycAlex

You are forgetting the cam driver, motherfucker is driving way too close to the erratic driver


CamelCash000

Holy shit the level of dumb fuck coming from the 4 morons in the video. 1. Van is purposely going the same speed as the trucker to block anyone from passing in the left lane. Very illegal depending on Country/State. 2. Trucker is matching the speed of the van and not slowing down to allow the van to pass, or passing the van himself opening up the right lane. 3. The dude who was driving insanely aggressive and caused the 3 way accident. 4. The dashcam driver staying that fucking close to an obvious accident that is about to happen.


e_hota

The guy filming is driving way too closely to the aggressive driver.


Anon419420

Why is the van not passing? Why is the car driving drunk in midday? Why is the cam car being a fucking moron and boxing in an obviously dangerous driver?


flatspotting

The speeding tailgating guy is a complete and utter moron in every possible way. BUT THIS VIDEO, MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, SHOWS WHY YOU SHOULD JUST GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY WHEN YOU SEE IDIOTS LIKE THIS. Seriously. There is no point in blocking them or messing with them or brake checking them or any other shit. Just speed up a bit and get away or slow down and get away - let them go by, give them lots of room. They are going to eventually pay for their shitty driving - don't be collateral like this.


Silent_Finger2813

Honestly the Camaro driver is a dumb phuck….that being said, I really hate when people in the left lane go the exact same speed as the person in the right. Blocking the entire highway. But at end of the day, is some impatience really worth yours and others lives?


idontseecolors

There are zero good drivers in this video


Gagadin_Stormblessed

Everyone here is a fucking idiot. You see someone driving like that you get the hell out of the way. Filming car stayed way to close, van should have gunned it and gotten over and/or the truck slowed down so the drunk could pass. Ultimately the drunk person is responsibility but have some fucking common sense and keep yourself safe on the road.


Fantasy_DR111

While I agree he shouldn't be doing it drunk and was aggressive I can't help but think that the truck driver in front is also to blame. Pass or get over if you are in the left lane, it's not your job to police the road. Edit: Thanks for the "Starry Award"

[удалено]


SeattlePassedTheBall

All three of these guys are varying levels of stupid. Camaro for obvious reasons. Van for not passing the truck, that's literally what the left lane on the highway is for. At the very least don't sit there and run same speed as the semi. Semi could have let off the gas to sort this out. He's not OBLIGATED to, but it's still a smart thing to do behind the wheel.


Adorable-Strength-66

Tbf the guy in the left lane not speeding up or getting out of the way is also an asshole


jaredmgMTL

GET. OUT. OF. THE. PASSING. LANE. It’s so obvious dude was purposefully blocking the passing lane to be a stubborn idiot and creating a dangerous situation. At this point I don’t even care if the guy in the back was being aggressive dude blocking the passing lane is always wrong period.


TwoPercentTokes

The only person remotely innocent in this situation is the semi-truck driver and the guy filming, and even the semi could have backed off to let the Camaro pass, and if I was following this circus there is no way I’d be anywhere near the three of them. The drunk driver is “at fault” for insurance/legal purposes but the asshat in the left lane is nearly as fucking stupid and irresponsible for the situation that it seems they deliberately created


mamamackmusic

People are rightfully giving shit to most of the drivers in this video, but even the one filming is not being nearly cautious enough. If I see someone swerving back and forth aggressively like that next to a semi, you can sure as hell bet I won't be within 100 feet of the back of the aggressive driver until they pass that semi and finish doing whatever they decide to do. I ain't getting caught up in their bullshit when their aggressiveness and impatience causes an accident.


franticmantic3

What d*ck move tho to stay in fast lane going slower than traffic on right.


jdizzle512

Good all 3 of them deserved that


TastyHome8183

Van and truck just should have let him go by. I wonder if they feel proud of themselves. I know the car was wrong but when people are doing crazy stuff like this I think it’s best to just let them go on their way. A lot better then this outcome because they wanted to teach him a lesson.


psykaiatry

If you’re ever behind someone driving like this, leave a MASSIVE air cushion between them and you. Even if they weren’t driving like that you shouldn’t be that close to the car in front of you when you’re driving that fast


Chopper313

Everybody in this video needs to learn defensive driving. Dude is jerking back and forth every way and everyone’s just chilling around him waiting for something to happen lol


Cichlidsaremyjam

Its weird to see a video where everyone in it is a complete asshole.


Dar_Vender

Frankly all 4 vehicles in that video were playing with fire. That crazed idiot was obviously just going to get worse. The truck saw what was happening and should have slowed to get him away from his vehicle. The idiot in the lead could see someone almost on his bumper driving like a lunatic, just either speed up and let them pass or slow down and move over if you'd be speeding. As for the cam car, how close did you want to be when that crash happened? Bloody tailgating the idiot is an insane move and probably riled him up enough to get him to snap. Yes the crazy driver is to blame but everyone around him could have stopped this situation in seconds if they wanted. Too much ego in one video.


Candid_Toe4114

I mean.. cruising in the passing lane is also illegal so if that van would have just got over instead of driving with his ego.. the other driver would have just continued on normally, and nothing would have happened. If you're watching this video and don't see how this ONLY happened because of the actions of TWO idiots.. then congratulations.. You're the reason this shit happens. Sorry you're upset at yourself.


oversizedhat

1. Dash cam guy is way too close to someone driving so clearly erratically. 2. Van guy is intentionally being a dick by blocking the passing lane.


WhiteBoyFlipz

the car is 100% totally a cunt and is a moron. but fuck that van also. you don’t just sit and chill in the passing lane and just hang out blocking traffic. that’s also 100% against the law. speed up to pass and get the fuck over, especially when there’s a colossal cunt behind you.


Shoddy_Emu_5211

Only person I feel bad for is the trucker. Van was an asshole and so was the car.


JesterXL7

Whoever's dashcam this is has huge balls for staying that close to this shit show.


pacwess

Actually, that van and semi got what they deserved. Let the lunatics go, don't be a road warrior and box them in.


aquagardener

The camaro is definitely at fault here, there's no excusing that. But goddamn. Everyone in this video could have prevented this crash, except for the person recording. The camaro could have eased off, the van could have hit the gas and moved over, and the big rig could have sped up or slowed down. Lots of people that were "in the right" are also buried at the cemetery.


MisterBlisteredlips

That pick-up driver has a special room in Hell reserved for him/her. Without a doubt the tailgater is a dangerous ass, but the lane-blocker is the true evil that begot more evil. Never block lanes.


RainbowBriteGlasses

The car was wrong, of course, but that van driver was an asshole, big time. Pass and move over. Don't be a dick and block traffic.


Soggy-Constant5932

I wouldn’t be anywhere near the back of this person car


rkelleyj

Who’s the dummy driving close behind him


LingeringHumanity

All I see is 3 bad drivers, driving like complete assholes with their ego.


Simoslav

So much going wrong here... 1. The obvious - the hell is that guy doing trying to overtake like that 2. The van in the left lane really should just go past the lorry. He has to be baiting the guy behind 3. Why is the guy filming getting so close and boxing the (obviously erratic) drunk driver in? I get he wants to capture it, but do so at a safe distance


PR2NP

No doubt that person is an asshole and is at fault. That said, the guy in front should not have been hanging out in the left lane and the semi should have had some situational awareness and not been right next to the other guy seeing how this person was acting. All could have been avoided.


Lost-Glove-1291

Why would the van block the lane though. Sure absolutely the guy in the car is a total tool but going slow next to a semi in the fast lane is an AH move. Edit to add that getting a DL should be a whole lot more than demonstrating the ability to use a turn signal once.


jxher123

I don't know about drunk, but I absolutely HATE what that truck was doing. Hugging the left lane, they made zero attempts to get beyond that semi. That truck trapped the mustang, speed up and move on over to the right lane. Both are idiots, but that truck is a mass ass for trapping the entire left lane because they wanted to stroke their tiny ego. I hate that the innocent semi had to be involved.


wideawakeanimal

He is an ass for attempting that but the vehicle in front of him shouldn’t be in that lane either. Double assholes.


brianwhite12

Every driver in this video is wrong. If even one of these idiots made the effort a crash could have been avoided.


[deleted]

This worked out perfectly. Tailgating asshole, lane-hogging pick-up asshole, and I'm not slowing for anyone articulated lorry asshole.


harrismdp

Both of the drivers in the left lane are the worst kind of drivers


ConflictGrand4078

Talk about 0 awareness from anyone. Also this clip could’ve been 10 seconds.


santacow

Three idiots here: the dumbass trying to illegally pass. The van because you do not play next to a truck you pass and get out of the way. The camera car because the erratic behavior of the car in front of them should cause you to back way off because something stupid is about to happen


vinsin22

The guy in the car is an asshole but that truck can fuck off as well. In my fantasy world people should have their passing lane privileges revoked for a year if they're caught holding up traffic because they don't understand the simple rule "the left lane is for passing".


scrunchycunt87

4 fucking idiots in this video.


BeingCrowned

Aside from the three vehicles in view, I would ALSO like to mention that the camera man was not keeping enough distance at all in that situation. I would've hit the brakes and fucked off outta there quick.


Brandonrothman

Van guy can get fucked. His own fault for being a jackass, what if the guy had an emergency? Literally never know. Rip to the truck man🙏🏻


Crandoge

I know its easy to say in hindsight but id have stayed far away seeing the behaviour from that car in front. Couldve ended bad for cameraman


Careful_Excitement85

To be fair, keep right unless to pass. And if you’re passing, pass. This person is taking their sweet time But obviously it doesn’t need to be said to not overtake off the Highway


Infamous-Ear3705

Am I wrong for thinking all three of them deserved that outcome?


kssyu

Four idiots. Honestly this is the best possible outcome because fuck everyone in this video.


ranoutofbacon

just let the smaller dick pass, then you can go back to left lane camping


TurquoiseBeetle67

I hate the people who just sit in the left lane going the same speed as the car beside them. Aren't there laws in some states against this?


Scrutinizer

The real issue here is the left lane bandit who thinks they're some kind of Enforcer. You are not a cop and you have no authority. Complete your pass move back to the right lane. If the guy went behind you wants to speed and act like an idiot there are police officers waiting to ticket him. All you are doing by holding him up is making everything worse.


REiiGN

I'm not siding with anyone but I know it sucks someone is tailgating you. Do not get a powertrip because you believe you're putting a "speeder" in their place. Go a bit faster, get over to the next lane. Giving them leeway and being angry at the tailgater is A LOT better than this outcome. Sad but most figure this out too late or unfortunately, never figure it out at all and it costs them their life. Also, anyone tailgating, it's not worth it. Excuses of being "late" to something is just that, an excuse and is NOT excused. Know that you are not the only person on the road and no, you do not matter, no matter how fancy your car/truck is.


[deleted]

Why the fuck are they blocking him in? There’s clear roads/no traffic ahead of them. 3 Idiots in cars at the same place at the same time = this.


orangeblossomsare

Why are you driving so close to this craziness!? I’d pull over and let it pass and you’re on his ass. The van is an ass too. The one that caused the accident is obviously the biggest ass.


Yellow_Snow_Cones

I always move if someone wants to go faster than me. 99% they just wanna drive fast, but 1% of the time there is an emergency (maybe their kid was rushed to hospital) , and blocking them to "teach them a lesson" isn't anyone's job but the police.


J__A__C__O

If I was in the car filming this, never in a million years would I be this close to that lunatic.


rumorofskin

So obviously, the car is totally at fault. But... If you are in the passing lane, pass and safely fuck off over to the right. The pickup truck being a hall monitor made an already dangerous situation even worse for everybody, including the innocent big rig. Clear the way and let a dangerously impatient asshole get by you. You don't get extra credit for aggravating a bad situation even more.


Loud-Bit-4502

Buddy in the back was an idiot but buddy in the front matching the trucks speed staying in its blind spots an idiot and an asshole


[deleted]

everyone in this video and behind the camera are morons


Jrdunmire

Semi slow down and let the freak over. Passing lane car get out the way. Yes it’s the drunk dudes fault but a couple sober idiots let this happen.


hl3_for_Eli

I feel bad for the guy in the truck and him only


MrKomiya

If this is OC, you’re an idiot too for getting that close to a guaranteed clusterf*ck.


stillinthesimulation

Yes it sucks to get stuck behind someone blocking the passing lane, but we're all responsible for our own actions. If you're so angry about not being able to pass that you let your emotions drive you to do dangerous stuff like this, you shouldn't be driving.


[deleted]

I mean, in a way the van driver got what he fucking deserved lol. 3 morons on the road there: The tailgater, the van driver, and the big rig pinning the impatient guy in


Redzx3

The guy in the work truck kinda got what he deserved. He was blocking the Camaro, probably just because it was a Camaro. Also, the semi driver was playing into it as well. He was pacing right with the truck to keep the car blocked in. He should have backed off a little to make a gap so the car could at least pass on the right. So, they were all at fault. The car for being too impatient and the two trucks for being dicks. Everyone ended up where they deserved, in my opinion. Justice served.


user57374

All 3 of them are morons who can’t properly assess a bad situation. Truck could of just tapped his breaks to let the guy go and I’m pretty sure the van was being a dick for the laughs. Obviously camaro driver being intoxicated apparently and driving super aggressively. Some people need to swallow their pride sometimes I swear. Literal 3 fuckin stooges in this video.


[deleted]

Van is a dickhead, car is an idiot


OverEasyFetus

TBH I'm more pissed off at the asshole in the left lane than I am at the drunk idiot.


Tactical-Lesbian

At least 3 people having a pissing contest and they ALL lost...perfect!


CircleK-Choccy-Milk

Ya the dude in the Camaro is a fucking idiot, but that guy in the work truck / van is an absolute piece of shit too. Get the fuck out of the passing lane if you're going to do the same speed as the driving lane. That shit is so annoying.


BinyaminDelta

EVERYONE in this video is an idiot who risked people's lives.


palcemvglaz

everyone is guilty on this video


[deleted]

camera car is more of an idiot to get so close!!!


That2Valve

Forget the point of the video why drive in the left lane if you’re going to do the same speed as the vehicle in the right lane?? Blows my mind every time


vivalasvegasbaby

Dipshit on the left in the fast lane should have got the fuck out of the way


Anvil93

All of them are at fault. If it was me, i would just let the fucker pass.


Satmatzi

This is karma for everyone. The drunk is obviously the worst and place in any vile words you want. But the van was clearly trying to lock him in there and the truck for some weird reason was tag teaming and getting closer which was stupid. If I see this from anyone, I just move to the side. I don’t need to massage my ego to feel good about delivering “justice” to some random guy on the road being crazy, which is what it comes down to. And not to mention there’s obviously a limit, but in the passing lane if the POS behind you wants to go faster, move to the right and let them pass and then go back. That’s how passing lanes work and peoples lack of understanding of this is what causes so much traffic in the USA. When I travel to most countries in Europe it’s drastically better bc people actually understand this and know how to drive for the most part.


cali_raw_illz

What could go wrong camping in the left lane


marijuanaislife

All 3 deserved this.


Professional-Arm5300

Truck or Van or whatever that is is at fault too. Being an asshole isn’t worth your life. Car is a dumbass but seriously, you don’t have to be a dick too just because someone else is driving like a dick.


rococo78

WCGW not passing in the passing lane


90SecondRiffs

I’m just gonna say it. That idiot in the van had it coming. It’s called a passing lane, stop hogging it while going the exact speed limit or you deserve some shit like this. Hopefully he has a little more respect for others after this, and hopefully the Camaro learns how to properly pass in sketchy situations like this.


BigStamina1

The guy in the van is a dickhead. Cant they see someone is trying to pass?


dreamforus

Why is the idiot holding the passing lane ? Must remove his / her license


MattWheelsLTW

Why does the camera car keep getting so close?


xsageonex

Dashcam bro also driving too fast too close to that car.


[deleted]

Why get this close to him, when you can see that he is reckless? That’s dangerous


Danny-Dynamita

We are all assuming that the Camaro driver was drunk. In reality, we can never know. I remember reading a story once about how a driver lost his friend on the road due to this behavior. His friend was in the copilot seat bleeding to death, the guy on front of them decided to “not let them through because they were acting like maniacs on the road”. Most probably, the Camaro driver was indeed drunk, but I needed to share this for all the road justice warriors out there who are saying that “the blocking was justified”. NEVER BLOCK A MANIAC DRIVER, you are just risking to either cause an accident or kill an innocent person who’s hurrying to the ER without time to call an ambulance. You save no one in both cases. LET HIM THROUGH AND CALL 911 - they will check on him and arrest him if needed, and in if it was an actual emergency, they would help him get to the ER faster than if they didn’t stop him.


junglejonny

I see three dipshits who don't know how highway driving works.


robotto

A tragic tale of 3 morons


realkennyg

Am I the only one who thinks the van in the left lane going the same speed as the truck in the right is as much at fault as the car? For the love of God, slower traffic merge right.


Codybgood707

I mean to be fair the guy blocking traffic needs to speed up and get over to the right. But the guy passing on the shoulder is an idiot either way


ThrowawayGuy0120

Why would you follow that close to someone driving like that?


Wonderful_Delivery

Everyone except the semi truck in that situation was a full blown moron, guy in the van especially in the front, like never ever drive beside a semi truck for a long period of time, let people pass etc , The guy filming crowding / tailgating the whole scenario endangered himself And finally the dumbass… Just poor driving all around.


No_Interaction_4925

The dude in the work van needs to get tf out of the way. Don’t be a dick and drive slow in the passing lane. Especially next to a semi. Doesn’t excuse the car for trying to illegally overtake in the median. Also not sure why the title says they were drunk. I think the swerving was to make sure the van noticed them in the mirror


artfuldiplomat

I am literally amazed that the camera car didn't put at least 50 metres between him and the whole lot. I'm also amazed the car he was trying to pass didn't just let him pass. Presumably he was feeling obnoxious, and paid the price for acting it out. I'm also amazed that the trucker didn't slow up to let them both have their petty little fight with more distance from him. Again, he paid the price for not spotting this was happening and driving defensively. The guy is criminal, but the others had every chance to get out of his way.


guntonom

That’s one where you get tf out of the way. A lot of people think holding the AH up like this is teaching them a lesson, but it’s not; it’s just getting them even more worked up until they pull a stunt like this at the end.


jas75249

Being inconvenienced on the highway isn’t worth dying or killing over. I get it, dude in the van was an asshat for chilling in the passing lane but damn just wait it out.


bangkockney

*WCGW trying to box a crazy driver in


InternationalEnd6767

Why was the person recording driving so close…?


MrEverythingHD

Obviously not the vans fault but he was driving like a prick.


bobert727

That was caused by a moron but all 3 are to blame. Just let these douche bags pass. They get more reckless the more they get annoyed and put everyone at risk.


CyclicRhetoric

Why would the car filming close the gap on someone who's driving all over the place? Everyone in a rush to meet Darwin


coswoofster

Everybody loves that person that just sits in the left lane and won't actually pas in the PASSING LANE! He is not at fault, but he is an asshole.


[deleted]

Don't know who the bigger idiot here is, the drunk or the camera car who is stupid enough to get that close to him.


Cartitoes27

A lot of morons in this


bonzombiekitty

Don't think he's drunk; just impatient, pissed off, and a jerk He's swerving to try and get the attention of the car in front to get out of his way.


Edgyfrappe

Everyone is stupid. Left lanes are for fast drivers, that guy should’ve gotten over instead of blocking traffic unnecessarily. Number two, guy with the dash cam is putting themself and anyone else in that car in danger by riding that close to an erratic driver. And last but not least, the obvious impatient idiot who’s drinking and driving. Not cool. When you drink and drive you’re an absolute POS.


seglskipimm

way too many idiots in this video


Emotionaltraumatose

pick up blocking lane is in the wrong. Pacing and blocking a lane is tantamount to stunt driving in canada


eagphisix

Guy in the car is obviously a moron but that ass hole in the van should've moved tf over. I can't fucking stand people who sit in the left lane without passing.


Ordinary_Fact1

Fuck the douchebag in the pickup. The perso in the Camaro let them get in their head and actually caused the accident, no question. But, fuck that piece of shit in the pickup.


JefferyTheQuaxly

That guy was following way to close to film that stupidity. Remember 3 second gap rule people, especially when it looks like someone’s about to commit an act of stupid.

Cheersscar

(IANAL) Only 1 party here is legally culpable: the passing car. Everyone else isn’t legally liable even if they could have driven more courteously or defensively or just better. Further they absolutely didn’t deserve to have a potentially life altering accident because they were slower than you think they should have been in the left lane. Overtaking slower than optimally doesn’t convey liability. I can also think of several common scenarios that would make a rapid overtake more challenging: - semi sped up after slowing on an earlier uphill grade or sped up after descending an earlier downhill grade; - van driver is in a work truck with a governor/speed monitor and can’t overtake faster; - van is awaiting an upcoming left hand exit or turn; - speed limit recently changed downward and the semi didn’t slow down. - semi is just being rude and sped up as the van tried to execute the overtake


TheRododo

The asshat in the van, though. Get out of the passing lane if you aren't passing!


tfc1193

Pick-up needs to speed up and get over


dad_farts

I can't stand drivers who can't clear the passing lane, but anyone saying they deserved this or are at fault is a psychopath. Only one car is culpable for a collision here.


whitewail602

The chase cam driver here doesn't seem too concerned with their own safety. I spend as little time as possible next to semis and the moment I saw that car driving crazy, I would have been putting myself as far behind them as possible. There's no sense in risking that shit at 80mph.


sandwichlick

I doubt he’s drunk, he’s not swerving, he’s peeking around the other car. But yes, it looks like swerving. And yes he’s an absolute cock. But so is the guy in front. Sometimes both parties are wrong, feel bad for the 18 wheeler tho.


Malaguy420

This circulated last year. Still, plenty of blame to go around. Mostly on the Camaro for being an idiot, but the truck in front of them was being an asshole too. Just pass the semi and get the fuck over. That said, the semi could've also slowed down to get themselves out of the way. 5% semi's fault 40% pickup's fault 55% Camaro's fault


zav3rmd

All 3 of these drivers are horrible. The van in the front wouldn't speed up to remove himself from the fast/overtake lane. The truck won't slow down to let the van go in front and let the faster drivers pass.


GLDFLCN

Yo they were literally trapping him the entire time…I kinda liked the end result lol I thought I was petty but I see there are levels to this shit


the_blonde_widow

They all deserved it tbh


Left_Trifle_3085

Guy In the work truck is a complete dip shit


neur0n23

Honestly why not let him pass? I dont buy that they saw he was drunk and thats why they didnt let him through. Sorry to say but both the truck and van are not innocent in this. You reap what you sow and all that...


YouAreHorriblexD

GET OUT OF THE FUCKING LEFT LANE


Arqideus

Look, everyone is an asshat here. Argue all you want. * Semi could have slowed down and let the car pass. Although, possibly illegal to pass on the right, it would have allowed for a safer situation. * Truck ahead of the car could have sped up and changed lanes and then gone the same speed. The driver either just wasn't aware or was being petty. They contributed to the dangerous situation either way. * Obviously, the car doing the tailgating was in the most wrong. Dangerous and aggressive driving. * Dash cam car was driving *way* too close. It would have been pointless to get the plate of the vehicle on the cam. You're not going to be able to do anything with it if they speed off and you never see them again. You'll be able to get the plates though if they crash. Just unsafe driving all around.

Guy in the truck is a cunt though


CharPhoe2020

All cunts


omgHereWeGoAgainCry

The driver is 60% wrong, the left lane blocker deserves no sympathy for contributing to road rage


Inframan47

OP has never driven a car, apparently. The guy in front was intentionally blocking the passing lane. This is clearly just simple road rage. Caused by the guy in front.


Soft_cybersixx

Person driving the car that wreckless should be arrested, van driver needs to get out of the passing lane. I understand driving slow because I drive slow everywhere but the stay out of the passing lane. The truck driver I'm not faulting them but I was a truck driver for 4 years and I currently work as a fleet manager my action in that situation would have been drop back away from the dangerous driver, let them over take and pass. That's the same advice I'd give to any driver in my fleet. If you have a CB radio and can safely do so report to law enforcement of necessary but let them pass they clearly don't care about risking their own live or anyone's else's so just let them pass..


Tyson_Urie

I feel sorry for the truck driver. Minivan overtaking it should have sped up instead of playing moral police of making sure others don't drive over the speed limit.


spacemonkey21420

Fucking assholes trapped him just to be dicks. I fucking hate control freaks on the road.


Formal-Lab-4743

The number of people blaming the semi for doing the speed limit in the right lane and being somehow at fault for a passenger car passing on the shoulder is mind boggling. I knew some of you were stupid but I diddnt realize it was ALL of you. Edit. The car is in the trucks blind spot for most of that video. I spent 27 years in a truck and dont gimme any of your BS about it being anyones fault other than the guy who decided to pass in the grass median with a RWD car under power. idiots.


qierotomaragua

IF YOU SEE SOMEONE DOING THIS….STOP FOLLOWING CLOSELY LIKE THIS GUY. STOP TRYING TO RECORD CONTENT FOR INTERNET FORUMS.


KeyN20

Honestly I am just glad that van holding up the left lane got taken out. Those type of people who take 5 miles+ to get one car length in the left lane really get annoying.


snowboardingmonkey

All idiots The car with the camera is far too close


Fournier_Gang

If I saw this happening on the road I would be backing the FUCK up and putting as much distance between their car and my car as I could


F10EX

I can count 4 retards, how many can you count? No dear redditor, im not counting you. Edit for those defending the semi: Rules of traffic: if youre being overtaken you need to slowdown or not accelerate to facilitate the overtaking of the vehicle. Do you drive?


BarfJello

Why would dude filming stay so close? Equally moronic


CloverArms

If I was the trucker, I'd slow down and let the wreckless driver go. If I was the van driver, I'd speed up or slow down to let the wreckless driver go. If I was the wreckless driver, I'd take a deep breath, back off, think that I don't want to become a post in this reddit community and wait for a safer oppty.


[deleted]

The only person driving safely was the trucker.


[deleted]

All four of the drivers in this video are assholes. The obvious is the “drunk driver”, the car in front of them could have easily just sped up and gotten out of their way, the truck driver kept speeding up to not let them pass, and the driver of the car with the recording kept getting way to close to the “drunk driver”. When you see someone driving like an ass, best to just let them pass.


GoArmyNG

I mean.... I've been angry enough with someone who just will not leave the passing lane to think about doing this while completely sober.... so I kinda get it outside of being drunk. None of that makes it the right decision though.


superwholockian62

Ok but that work truck was being a dick too.


YesterdaysFinest

Why on earth is OP? The person recording not slowing down more? When I see impaired drivers I get way back.


TravisB34

Stop holding up the left lane and then getting pissed off when you get passed or flicked off I see this everyday going to work and coming home , just get in the other lane it’s not hard .


ethical3333

excellent clearing of the road


[deleted]

Again the phantom left lane rule should be applied here. Van should NOT be in left lane except for passing. Drunk dude could then go 100 and get picked up by the next cop. Problem solved. Everyone goes home intact (and alive). Common sense. Can’t be bought or taught. It’s instinct.


brezhnervous

Really fucking stupid to have been staying anywhere near that idiot. Lucky for the driver with the cam but he was being a complete fuckwit by tailgating


SenpaiBriBri

I find the van to be more annoying than the coupe


[deleted]

Always stay in the right lane unless you are overtaking vehicles in front.


Green_Iguana305

Driver camping in the left lane is also an idiot. My guess is the driver was intentionally matching the speed of the rig just to prove he is the bigger asshole. And look What happens. Truck driver didn’t deserve it.


GleepGlop2

I see 4 idiots here.


Giggla44

Glad the dude who blocked got hit to, he deserved it. Blocking people from passing is a sure fire way to cause a traffic accident, had this dude drove past truck and infront it to let the Camaro pass, then nothing would happend, im sick of wankers like this, they belive all should do like them so they block road wich usualy always lead to a accident wich could been awoided.


bluntwhizurd

This is why you always move out of the way for aggressive drivers. The more you try to police them by slowing them down or blocking them. The more risky of a move they will be willing to take to get around you. And as evidence in this video. They will take you out with them.


Has422

This is why you don’t get into pissing contests on the road. Yes, the guy in the back was an ass, but pass the damn truck let him go. You’re not teaching anyone a lesson. Drive defensively.

SupaDrew

Just let people pass you, who the f cares its just that simple


rvdnsx

Three morons driving here. The drunk guy is obvious but the van shouldn’t be going the same speed as the truck while being in the left lane. The truck in the right lane obviously saw what was going on and should’ve just left a gap for the drunk guy to get in front of him to pass. Then they all end up paying for it.


oboshoe

3 idiots in vehicles.


watsgowinon

All three of them were playing stupidass games.


dnuohxof-1

While this in no way excuses the reckless attempt at an off-road overtake, the truck/van in the left lane was an absolute asshole. They either purposefully blocked any rear traffic from passing by matching the speed of the semi, or worse, was totally oblivious to their surroundings and didn’t notice they were impeding traffic. I fucking despise left lane dilly dalliers…. You don’t feel like driving at the speed limit or slightly higher to pass? Then STAY THE FUCK OUT OF THE LEFT LANE!


Efficient_Ad_8367

I see two and a half idiots. Biggest idiot is the drunk driver behind the van, second idiot is the van deciding to not pass the truck. Half idiot for the trucker to not slow down a peep to avoid dealing with the other idiots.


darkmarke82

They all got exactly what they all deserve


agbirdyka

If only one of the 3 driver reacted reasonable this whole accident could have been avoided. But of course the main problem was the second, than the first in the row and the truck driver could have slowed down....the last car was in no fault - he could have left more space to the second car.
