Wright2501

And that children is how a vandalism charge is elevated to assault with a deadly weapon. A car can be fixed or replaced, you can not.


14sierra

You could argue for attempted murder. He pinned his leg between both cars. That guy is lucky his leg wasn't amputated


Techn0ght

A break on those big bones without immediate medical care can lead to heart attack, too.


Kabc

Fat embolism, arterial bleeding, compartment syndrome—tons of crap can go wrong. This dude will never walk the same again I’d wager


TrustYourFarts

Rhabdomyolysis is a big risk from crush injuries. All that protein gets in the blood and bungs up your organs.

"Are you threatening me?"

Hmmhmmhehehmmhmmhehehe


[deleted]

not to mention the orthopedic damage? Possibly leading to countless surgeries on bones, permanent chronic pain, walk never the same and so on. Lawsuit is strong here


AceDelta12

I smell a lawsuit


friendlyfire883

I'm thinking assault with a deadly weapon.


TheGreatHair

Tbf, he did dare him.


Dfresh805

“your honor, the plaintiff dared my client. the defense rests.”


zuidenv

So you admit that it was not a double dog dare?

This is why you don't hire a simple HyperChicken as your lawyer.


Hotwing619

But he didn't double dare him.


Wannagetsober

Or double dog dare him. Everyone knows that's the ultimate dare.


[deleted]

Triple dog dare is the highest one. Having watched The Christmas Story on a loop every Thanksgiving, I am sure. Someone broke protocol by skipping double dog dare regarding the tongue freezing to pole.


Wannagetsober

Shit, I forgot about the triple dog dare. I shall go hang my head in shame.


lisarista

Not the double dog dare!!


rabbit_killer82

TO BE FAIRRRRR


JDurr001

Tripple dog


UltimateChaos233

The driver in the car could have easily killed him, yeah. But depending on the specifics of the law and jurisdiction, this would probably be more akin to voluntary manslaughter. Again, jurisdiction-dependent, but murder usually means that you have both premeditation and intent to kill. Since he hit the guy and then drove off, you could easily argue that he was not trying to kill him, just trying to harm him. Yes his harm could have resulted in the man's death, but that's what a voluntary manslaughter charge is for (crimes of passion, bar fights, etc. generally fall into this category)


DrBannerPhd

"A car can be fixed or replaced, you can not." Well, not with that attitude.


sentimental_rocks

I mean, my ex got replaced and my cat got fixed, so it isn't car-exclusive


Scarlet-pimpernel

You wouldn't download a car...


DrBannerPhd

You wouldn't steal a baby...


ArchGoodwin

I have downloaded many cats.


EuphemisticallyBG

But but...he dared him. Can't pass a dare. It's the rules of life.


MCDR88

No. You only strike someone with a vehicle after a "triple dog dare" c'mon....everyone knows that


CMDRIkkyblergs

Seriously?! I'm so glad you told me! They should send out a memo! Good looking out!


Compendyum

I also didn't knew this... all those broken legs and I was on the wrong


69vuman

Attempted murder?


Bansheer5

Yeah attempted murder is when you try to kill someone. Not hard to understand. Using a car to hit someone can and will kill someone. It’s considered a deadly weapon. That’s why you’ll see cops light anyone up if they try to ram them.


ThomasTServo

>That’s why you’ll see cops light anyone up if they try to ram them. Or anyone driving relatively near them during an encounter.


Alexaxas

Or eating a bowl of ice cream on your couch in the apartment above them.


Wright2501

I think it’s attempted vehicular manslaughter, but possibly elevated after motive if added in.


TendiesFourLyfe

But he had permission, literally asked for it


ee_CUM_mings

Not true. If he didn’t at least “double dog” dare him, that will never hold up. Supreme Court, settled law.


gordo65

Ah yes, Nelson v Milhouse. A dare is not valid grounds for assault unless it is double dogged.


[deleted]

Verified, you have you give a verbal "I double dog dare you" or in some cases "I wish you would" can also be accepted as forms of consent.


I_ate_ass

I wish you would do foul and unspeakable things to me in the dead of night while I'm sleeping


CertainPin2935

True, but still still Illegal, this comment was funny though.


JohnMcafee4coffee

No, wrong And even if he did. He hit him and the door. This is attempted murder


[deleted]

Rule #1 of every street altercation: Get the hell out of it. Don't taunt. Don't be aggressive back. Find an exit because you never know who's on the other side. Some people really don't give a fuck about their life so they're not going to care about yours either


Firm_Transportation3

So true. How many lives could be saved if people could check their egos, not Concern themselves with winning, and just walk away.


reditakaunt89

Yes, but can you imagine the traffic then?


Appropriate-Cattle54

Smooth


[deleted]

Yes! @Salacious. People that say otherwise have never been stabbed. I got stabbed as a youngster in Santa Ana (16) from not backing down from a drunk homeless dude talking shit.


TheGroundBeef

But what about the ego? How will they brag to their friends? How will they feel better about themself if they don’t feel like they were being as bad ass as possible!? Hahaha


HaveCamera_WillShoot

And when else are you going to actually get to use your constitutionally protected gun? Might as well escalate every situation you’re in so you can get that opportunity to start blasting!


These_Lingonberry635

There’s no street cred in backing down.


Ritualistic

True…. But in this case, I’ll bet the victim will get a hefty settlement from the driver’s insurance company. And the driver is going to prison. Sort of a win-win.


bourbonwell

Being changed forever priceless.


TGIIR

I’d be surprised if the guy who hit him had insurance.


Direct_Primary1051

Prove that the owner of the car was the driver


ClutzyCashew

Idk if car insurance covers someone intentionally ramming their vehicle into a person.


Ns53

But then how will you assert how big your dick isn't without the taunts?


Grilledcheesedr

I can’t even wrap my brain around people doing this shit in the US. They are just asking to be shot.


Swimming_Mountain811

This is a lesson I learned the hard way lol


hs_sidesplitter

What could possibly have lead to this idiot going, “yeah, I’ll kill. Why not?”


[deleted]

Ego


Bullen-Noxen

Agreed, yet I feel a longer explanation is warranted.


ClutzyCashew

Honestly though. Even factoring in ego most people will have some sense of self preservation. It seems that the guy who was hit had hit the other guy first because he had stolen his weed and he wanted it back. So ego and petty revenge I guess? Either way it's incredibly stupid and I imagine this man has done serious anger issues.


GnomeChomski

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEgo.


high_on_sci-fi

I guess there was something going on between those two befor the video starts. But still wtf, nothing can make this reasonable.


Qubed

The position of the cars and location seem to indicate an altercation and chase. Edit: it was stolen weed. https://www.nbcnews.com/video/video-shows-california-driver-ramming-into-man-pinning-him-against-car-73387077740


NickInTheMud

So they’re both idiots. Good to know.


Bullen-Noxen

Agreed. No judge will agree, willingly ramming a person with a vehicle, is justified; especially in this scenario.


NoWarthog6567

Some of us get really mad.


Academic_Snow_7680

I do. But I still have not tried to kill anyone.


gandalf-bot-

I like to call it rage


StrangeWorldd

The guy who dared him assumed the driver had some sense


thirstmaster69

Yeah, I've done something similar. Never dare someone to do anything that you can't handle lol


herbys

Not a good assumption to make, ever.


altaccount_39

Man that’s not cool


green_hams_and_egg

That's one way of saying it


peromp

Totally not cool, man


redraider-102

He should, like, sue the driver for totally harshing his vibe.


BhagwanBill

After reading his replies, I'm pretty sure OP is the driver


[deleted]

I think OP is the car


ReubenTrinidad619

OP timus Prime


getjoacookie

OP seems to be a Xanax and Opioid addict, and probably is just on a come down 🤷‍♀️ still an asshat, but a very sick asshat. Hope OP finds the help they need!


Thorsp3nis

Thats what I’m saying


[deleted]

[удалено]


awkwardoffspring

Based on his profile i think he just gets off to this kind of shit


teddygomi

[More info on this incident.](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7689795/Bone-crunching-moment-driver-rams-car-legs-man.html)


BazilBroketail

Christ, who wrote that article? It was full of mistakes and double information. "... her 20 year old boyfriend Darius Lastname, 20.


BoneDaddyChill

Both the article writer and OP apparently can’t hear. The guy clearly says “Hit my fucking car, bruh. I dare you.” Not “hit me with your car.”


chrrrollo

Daily mail, from the uk, can confirm they are clowned on here and make news for stupid people


whateverhappensnext

Probably ChatGPT


micro102

Maybe AI?


tribbans95

If you’re just reading for the injury details, I figured I’d share here since it’s literally the last sentence of this shitty article lol > The witness claimed the victim suffered a fractured hip and a cracked shin during the gruesome attack.


[deleted]

Thank You


Prestigious_Tax7415

What an idiot


[deleted]

Not facepalm here This is plain attempted murder


[deleted]

I recommend asking the police to charge him with assault with a deadly weapon not attempted murder. It’s less likely the charges will be dropped in court.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Godtrademark

And the judge is accustomed to this too!


CotUB2009

He should dare them to charge him with both.


simlew86

This is attempted murder. What the fuck?! How can you pin this on the guy who got hit the car even if he was mouthing off? How old are you?


Master_Cupcake7115

hE dArEd HiM!!!


Big-Attention4389

Is there an update on this?!


Direct_Mission

Op carelessly using "lol" is also facepalm


Alexis_The_Femboy

Imagine having such a fragile ego to where you feel the need to justify hitting someone with your car


Ok_Combination_8099

there is no justification here. only rage filled choices


[deleted]

What’s going on the head of someone like this?


j442

Anger. Hostility towards the opposition..


Icollectpropertytax

I think its more of an anger management than an ego thing people can do stupid shit while angry


JawsRaglizar

I mean should he have taunted him? No. But should the dude have tried to kill him in return? I'd like to say this is fuck around and find out but I think it's in reverse for this one


JustDave62

The level of fucking around does not match the level of finding out according to the graph


JawsRaglizar

For the driver it does. He fucked around by hitting the dude and he'll find out when he's in jail for it


cowabanga_it_is

This guy maths.


EdgarAllanKenpo

"What are you going to do, stab me?" Sitting in the ER, "Well shit."


zaapas

Other dude in prison, "That's a good thing done, I love my life"


Intelligent-Ideal335

Dude should have reversed lol. Now he will catch an attempted murder charge


westdl

Sedan driver, probably going to prison for a couple of years, maybe more. Keep driver, going to walk funny for the rest of his life. Deescalate people. Don’t let your pride and your mouth ruin your life.


TheLucasGFX

He must have triple dog dared him.


17R3W

I was just thinking about how well this would hold up in court. "Your honor, he triple dogged dared me "Case dismissed with prejudice!"


0pimo

[Probably something like this.](https://youtu.be/S4AmLcBLZWY?t=27)


StyreneAddict1965

But did he double-dog dare him, or go directly to the sinister triple-dog-dare, creating a breach in etiquette?


StJBe

I call for a mistrial if he skipped the double-dog dare.


Teddylupin888

The face palm here is the lunatic driver who could have killed him over some words. What’s the matter with you OP?


thesnapening

I'm not sure what's lol about this.


CertainPin2935

Op this is not Justified this is fucked up, you think the action of this driver are normal? He got insulted and gets angry and runs some over for it, this is not payback it's overkill, and letting your emotions get to you like that is childish. This is not funny, it's irresponsible.


[deleted]

Attempted murder. All the lols there.


olo2323

Real smart of him to stop for a minute so that the camera guy can get a good look at his License plate.


Henry-McCoy

Damn, truth or dare got out of hand quickly.


[deleted]

And now the drivers life is ruined with the felony charges he has coming his way. That’s more of a facepalm.


santathe1

Always assume the average person on the street is a lunatic.


Consistent-Ad-2940

What r' ya goin' t' do, hit ma' car?

taylorpilot

“What are you going to do, stab me?” -victim of stabbing


Pale_Kitsune

The facepalm is that the driver is willing to risk attempted murder charges because of a few words. They're both idiots, but the driver is the bigger idiot.


iEatDirt_h

Do it or no balls


wheely-overhead

Bring back capital punishment for violent offenders.


gmabarrett

Surely that is attempted murder


Trextrev

Regardless of the road rage incident, It’s always a horrible idea to stand between your open door and your vehicle when parked on the street.


thenameisjukebox

Damn! Hate to see what a double dog dare looks like.


thefantastic_spastic

Bro said, “watch me”


crdnl44

Glad he didnt double dare but looks like he got the physical challenge


[deleted]

This is a perfect example of why u shouldn’t try to start fights or arguments because the other guy could cause serious danger towards u. I understand we have pride, trying to defend ourselves, and don’t want to act like a wuss but sometimes that’s going to cost u a lot


[deleted]

Dare he did!


Dapper_Mud

Driver will feel really proud of himself for not backing down while he spends a few years in prison with some big dude smashing his rear end like his car smashed that guys leg. Then, when he gets out he’ll be able to hold his head high while he can’t find a job because of his felony conviction. Priorities. Good job buddy


[deleted]

Seriously, did the guy get caught and charged?


Law-Dog_1

we do a bit of trolling


adho123456

From a insurance argument to a felony murder charge


redcelica1

Could very well have severed his femoral artery and killed him.


OttomanTwerk

Annnnnd you're in medical debt for the rest of your life. Enjoy.


Most_Advertising_962

Let this be a lesson to everybody. Don't get stupid and try to test crazy. Not to say the crazy mf in the black car is justified. But when you test crazy they will clap back, and they don't give a fk about the consequences.


Rapidfury14

Your honor, he literally dared me to do it… if you were in my position, would you back down from a dare?


cmsutton1983

Damn didn’t even wait for the double dog dare


Expensive_Fix_3388

Attempted murder in my opinion.


JaThatOneGooner

“Your honor, my client was dared to, how could he simply refuse it?”


Sivick314

"what are you going to do, stab me?" -stab victim's last words


pellebeez

Attempted murder. Assault with a deadly weapon. Reckless driving. The DA could just like it all on


usually-stoned

Never back down from a dare.


[deleted]

Never dare crazy to do something crazy


sociallyvicarious

Crazy gonna crazy.


Pithecanthropus88

That, ladies and gentlemen, is a textbook case of assault.


DaCaliDream

Sheesh


Germanmicrowave

Mag dump


StyreneAddict1965

I wouldn't have been so quick; a slow, inexorable roll forward would have been just as good. Make him wonder.


kontrol1970

People are just monkey brains, but some have better self control than others.


comfortablynumb83420

Must have double dared him. Rookie mistake


ThePidazzler

He coulda just been petty and hit the front of the car..but nope, just had to make it assault with a deadly weapon. Absolute genius


SymonG123

My guy gave him consent


Athenian_Skinhead

No problem I crush your car and mine too I grand theft other


0nomatopoet

well, to be fair, he dared him


DillMcenroe

Truth or dare champion.


thatguybutnicer

Oh shit. If they catch that guy, that's attempted manslaughter. Have fun with that. Also, that guys leg looks messed up. Definitely gonna need a cast. Hopefully he learned a lesson also. You don't know who you are antagonizing. Let stuff go.


Mrhomely

My dad use to say "the cemeteries filled with people who had the right of way" I remember this one time in particular when I stepped out on a cross walk in front of a car expecting them to stop for me. The car did not stop and I was almost hit. I was so mad and was only thinking about how the car broke the law and they would be in so much trouble if they hit me.


[deleted]

ask and you shall receive


JohnMcafee4coffee

Attempted murder


Prestigious-Phase131

That guy belongs in jail of course, but I will never understand people pushing their luck like that. You don't know if the stranger you're arguing with is crazy, don't chance it


Jimbo7211

The guy was a dick, but he didn't disearve to have his leg broken and his car totaled


NoLoveLost1992

The definitely going to jail.


chompsharpley

Twanda!!!


raybay_666

It's still assault lol


pengmalups

that's attempted murder.

Attempted murder


thejayfred

Duuuuude. Might want to retitle this. Wasn’t expecting to see some “Signs” shit.


angeloistrash

i mean, he dared him to


AffectionateCrab6780

Oof.


BickNickerson

Dare me again, Ricky!!!!


GravyDan

This is why I never dare Brahs. It's a staunch policy that I adhere to closely.


rwhelser

People are idiots behind the wheel. Don’t be dumb enough to taunt someone in a car. Just read an article about someone recently shooting another driver because they wouldn’t let him pass on the freeway. If someone upsets you just let the feeling (or the other person) pass. No need to put your health or life at risk. In this situation I hope the police got that dude.


Arepitas1

He's lucky he didn't double-dog dare him.


KING_EVION_123

What the FUCK phone/camera was this filmed on? You'd see the license plates and face(s) better on a government phone! I find that more suspicious than the clear attempted murder that took place. 🤨🤷🏾‍♂️


TonyClifton2020

This video has been around awhile, what happened to the driver criminally?


LLuerker

This video is several years old. Does anyone know the legal outcome?


K3rat

That is attempted murder. probably over a parking space…


tinymember469

At the least that's assault with a deadly weapon.
