Close-call thread (Dash Cam)

[robb]

This happened to me last year. Although I can't say I was 100% in the right (I had plenty of room between the car I honked at and the guy in the truck who you'll eventually see. He punched it to try to keep me from getting in front of him originally when the first vehicle was blocking the right lane.) but I kinda wish I'd have let the truck hit me... Could have gotten a new DD. Skip to around 0:55 to skip anything boring.

It sounded like his tire scraped your fender.

That was my breaks locking up.

I wish he would have...

Guess he didn't like something you did. Everyone in a big jacked up 4x4 is a Texas Ranger.

Douching it up, Texas style.

Pretty standard stuff, but she did clip that left-hand turn and came very close. Car full of teenagers and the driver looked 16 or 17.

I hate when people can't make up their mind where they want to go.

Well all I can say.. Is that I now have to get a dash cam... I live pretty much inside The Villages, Florida ... For those who, don't know it's the fastest growing AND largest retirement community in the world . Pretty much ALL of it is golf cart accessible , I literally fear for my car and my life every day on my 10 mile commute ... I could probably upload multiple videos a day on some of the whack stuff I see.

What am I looking at here? All I see is someone changing lanes.

seemed like he was pretty certain he wanted to exit right

Guy wanted to exit. Guy sped up a bit in order to get ahead in traffic, couldn't make it because of more traffic. Guy has to slow down to get in.

Don't see a reason for anyone to get upset here, honestly. Out of all the dumb things you see on the road, that ranks near the bottom.

Because of GoPro angle it's much closer than you see.
I was about to pass the person, and the person just decided to get in front of me. Then, at the last minute decided to squeeze in this small gap making everybody slamming on their brakes almost stopped traffic. Both left and right lanes are to interstate on ramps.

Feel free to hate on me but most of the videos in this close call thread are people doing things that might be slightly annoying depending on the mood you are already in but hardly dangerous or illegal . I think I was annoyed by the drivers shooting the video as often as the other drivers.

Yep that was kind of my point earlier too - it's people raging in GTs like this over nothing that gives GT drivers a bad rep as young hotheads. This is why cops pay a lot more negative attention to GTs and Camaros than Corvettes; the drivers are typically younger and more likely to be hotheads.

god forbid some econobox "cuts off" someone that drives a GT even though they're going faster than them and had at least 3 carlengths of space
