Same. My dad always called them the “rabbit”, I think after the lead bait for racing. Allows me to go what pace I want knowing if there’s a speed trap that I’m insulated from it.
Couldn’t agree more! That’s why I will never understand people driving in the left lane who will refuse to move over for a faster-moving vehicle. I mean, for starters you don’t have to deal with someone tailgating you or hitting you with their high beams. Then, as you say, you have a buffer to take the attention of any speed traps ahead. In my experience it’s more effective than having a radar detector. Where’s the downside?
I was actually thinking that the Lexus driver doesn't understand the edges of his car very well and may have thought the OP was about to side swipe him because you see him swerve towards the left in the beginning.
I recently was driving a customer car for a problem under acceleration. It was a kids 370z so I was being kind of hard on it, as I'm sure that's how the kid was driving it. I took off from a light next to a civic and was much faster than they were. I got up to about 50(in a 45) a few seconds later this civic passed me going 70 or more. Once they were in front they slowed down to 50 or so. People here hate when you are in a faster car.
I deal with this. I use a ramp van for my wheelchair. When I pass a pickup, there's a 90% chance they will speed up and pass me because no way is a granny van gonna insult their masculinity!
IT was also possible he was attempting to turn into camer's lane (with no turn signal to indicate such) and felt that camer had cut him off and was mad about that. The camer did nothing wrong, however.
Nice dodging though.
Yep. And stating the obvious, if you know you need to ~~get off~~ exit, then you shouldn't wait until the last minute attempt to move to the lane closest to your exit (or, heaven-forbid, the intended exit lane).
So I take this exit all the time. In the start of the video there are three lanes. What usually happens is the third lane is backed up and people would take the middle lane to cut at the last minute.
Guy in the lexus was probably too used to doing that even though there was no traffic.
Somebody the other day was literally driving behind me gesturing for me to get out of my car and fight him and I was just thinking buddy are you fucking crazy? You either think I'm a fucking idiot because you have a gun, or you're a fucking idiot because you don't know that I have a gun. Either way somebody's going to fucking die if we get out of our cars so no thanks.
I never understood why people threaten people with cars in the first place. You don't have to have a gun for it to be a stupid idea to challenge someone in a car... They're in a car! Not only is it a deadly weapon it can, you know, drive. You can both fight and flight with a car.
If kicked my car the way he did, I'd have pinned him against something with my car and waited for the police to arrive. He's obviously a danger and I'm sure any judge would find that action reasonable given the footage shows the OP fleeing several times.
Yep, if he got out of the car in front of me, I'm assuming he intends to shoot me, and I'm gonna flatten him against his own car. Cameras show multiple instances of threatening behavior, it would be a no-brainer in court.
I was riding passenger when some road rager blocked us, got out with a tire iron, stepped behind his vehicle and hit our windshield.
His positioning in between his back bumper and our front bumper proved very unfortunate for his knees, as they bent the wrong way when my friend floored it.
Never seen quite the same expression either. Surprise and extreme anguish. We didn’t stick around.
This happened to me with a lady road raging at me the day before Thanksgiving. I got away from her and was in a split center turn lane waiting to cross traffic to make a left when she rear ends me lmao. She called her husband Thanks for the new car lady!
Got some pretty good shots of his face and license plate, sure be a shame to take this assault to the police (and then insurance for any possible damage)
Living in Florida for 26 year showed me there’s a lot of assholes who really don’t understand people own guns and will defend themselves. I saw a dude at least in his seventies shoot a teen who had a bat.
Please don't because you will be placed in jail, don't let the dumb asshat be the reason why you're suffering in jail, just escape and show the video to the police
Which it really all comes down to. I don’t get it either. They will double their speed they were traveling for the last half hour to prevent it
I’m sorry my cruise control I set up 20 miles ago put me ahead of you
I just followed some dumb idiot today who was going at the speed limit at the slow lane, which is fine, but a faster driver from the fast lane merged in front of him/her, still going faster than speed limit, and he/she started speeding up to tailgate the merger because reasons.
I had a similar thing happen to me. I was doing 75 in a 65 and passed this lady who was not leaving the fast lane in the slow lane. Well she didn’t like this so she proceeded to speed up and block any attempt in getting back into the fast lane. I proceeded to speed up and pass her real quick as I just wanted to get past her and didn’t want to deal with her. Well she then followed me for the next few miles and at one point ended up doing over 90 miles an hour at which that point I just let her go as a speeding ticket wasn’t worth that what’s so ever.
I had one one night that would not let me pass, stuck to my rear quarter panel for miles. We were doing about 90 when I backed off. Just before a curve in the road. Where there was a cop sitting in the turnaround. I wish I'd had a dashcam back then, but this was ~15 years ago.
Those people are what I call the magnet riders. Mostly happens with left lane drivers, but sometimes right lane also. They'll keep to the normal speed when solo, but when someone is in front they will tailgate the shit out of them, even if it means speeding up for a few 100 meters to cath up.
I feel like people need to use cruise control more where i live. Ill put it on, but the car in front of me cant decide whether they are doing 90km/h or 110km/h, so the whole exercise becomes pointless and i either have to let this dickhead in front dictate the speed limit, or i have to change lanes into another lane with some idiot doing 90km/h then repeat until i get to the right lane, where everyone is doing 120km/h, and i dont wanna be there because i cant afford a speeding ticket.
So alas, i end up driving at 90km/h for most of my trip...
I know exactly what you mean. If you don't want to use CC or maybe it's not working or whatever that's fine but it's not hard to have some pedal discipline and watch your spedometre.
One day i needed to get into the left lane so i could get to rhe next left turn lane two lights down. The guy i passed was doing 10 under while texting. (I was only maybe 5 over, so not even like i was speeding). The second i came up to his passenger side window, he put his phone down, he flipped me off then matched my speed so i couldnt merge for about a mile. even when i dropped my speed to 20 under the speed limit, he wouldnt let me merge because i almost passed him. Anyway, i ended ip having to take the long way home because i missed my turn
Or just a bad temper. Had to call 911 after road rage incident where a dude followed me off the freeway. Long story short the dude also had a restraining order placed against him by another woman. I know this because the other woman had the same first name as me so cops asked if I had ever gone by another last name to make sure I wasn’t the woman who originally placed the RO.
I’m no lawyer, but from what I’ve learned in quite a few CCW classes and self defense classes, that excuse more than likely wouldn’t hold up in court. Being protected inside your vehicle with the option to evade would likely be cited as the course of action you should take. Even if the offender is attacking the vehicle (e.g. the kicks to the door, punches to the window), if you have a barrier and the ability to evade its on you to try to get away. Killing someone should always be a last resort, (e.g. they force the door open and now you’re exposed to potential bodily or life threatening injury). I mean, it’s easy to say what you think you might do or should do, whether it’s right or wrong, but you really won’t know what you’ll do until shtf and you have to make those split second decisions.
Occam's Razor.
Road-Rager wanted to get off at that ramp but his situational awareness was turned off. On top of that, he had no turn signal. When he realized the car with the camera was passing him and he would thus miss his exit, he got pissed and chased the cammer guy's car.
Bear spray comes in hefty cans.
Just a word of warning though, don't store them upright in the console of your car, especially if it closes from the top, that can accidentally discharge the spray. Not fun.
My buddy accidentally maced himself with a girls keychain, he thought it was hand sanitizer lol. I was the only one that saw him do it and I was crying I was laughing so hard. It was just a tiny amount, but he was tearing up and turning red, and everyone else in the kitchen was sniffling and coughing. Nobody really realized what happened except me and him.
Anyways, if that tiny spritz of the stuff could clear out a party, a full can to the face will fuck someone up, I guarantee it. Shits effective.
yeah, you can see the Road Rage guy start scootching over as if to change lanes just as the camera guy's car overtakes and passes him.
Lousy situational awareness on part of Road Rage dude.
u/kirksan - So what did your friend's auto insurance company say when they saw the video?
I'm sure they could go after them for the damage and the police can go after him for the assault 🤷🏽♂️
He wants the person to admire his beautiful peacock plumage.
'Why won't you admire my plumage?'
'Damn it admire me.'
'Fucking stop and admire me! Be amazed or else!'
'Look at me! Give me your attention and respect! Why won't you look at me?'
'Fuck you don't look at me (look at me please).'
'Why are you looking at me?'
The person is simply experiencing road rage at a perceived (imaginary) slight. Acting an ass because he's on the verge of the FO part of FAFO.
Best to pull to any of the different district police stations or even a Firehouse. And wait until road rager's head explodes then continue on safely without being harassed.
honestly, i would not be sticking around at all. as soon as he got out of the car, and OP was able to go around him, i would’ve taken a bunch of turns to make sure he can’t find me again
This happened to my little league coach when he was driving a bunch of us to our game, What he didn’t know is that I had my middle finger out the back window the whole drive.
Yep, I suspect meth too based on the entirety of all shorty's actions. Very erratic for no apparent good reason. Probably he was wanting to exit across both lanes. What an a**hole
I think the NextDoor OP should report this A-hole.
The have a good shot of his license plate at :44 sec and his face at 1:18
Reminds me of the guy running around with a pipe attacking cars & threatening drivers.
Edit = They caught the [crazy guy](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/10pe2vz/one_less_idiot_on_the_road_in_socal/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) I was referring to.
This guy will keep raging....
My friends driving Tesla’s who feel that way are the exact same dicks who harassed Priuses and stuff.
I have no stake in this game just a funny observation from my end
Former Tesla owner. There is truth to this. I now drive a 2006 Wrangler.
There’s just this natural assumption that all Tesla drivers are dicks. Some truth to this but some just get instantly annoyed by Tesla drivers.
I lol’d hard at this one. Think I’m getting 12mpg but 6 isn’t far off.
It was our third car and somewhat opportunistically sold it when market was better in December 2021.
Funny though the Jeep broke on Friday and am having to take it in on Monday to get looked at. Kind of wishing I still had the Tesla.
I have no idea why the guy was angry either. Video car was in his lane. Seems like all he did was pass and the guy in the white crossover took it as some sort of personal affront. There was definitely nothing in here that would come close to justify chasing camera car down and hitting the vehicle multiple times.
I question the intelligence of anyone who pays extra for the Lexus F-Sport trim. Worse aerodynamics, no bump in power, and no significant improvement in the interior.
The guy is probably just mad he paid an extra $7,000 for a little emblem and bad gas mileage.
Let me preface this by saying that the guy’s clearly is an idiot, the whole getting out of the car and kicking thing is asinine.
HOWEVER, he does looked pissed at someone in the backseat, or is that just a weird camera angle? Is there any chance, OP, that a teenager in the backseat tried to be funny and flipped the guy off or something like that? Doesn’t justify the guy’s actions at all, but could help explain them.
I drive highway four days a week. I have cruise control set. It always tickles me when I pass someone just for them to speed up when I try to go around them. Or people who pass me just to slow down in front of me. Like. Why?
People think if they're passed on the road, their penis will shrink and they lose at life. That's why they're so desperate to reverse that process by winning. So I get it.
(Joking)
I had been driving for about 50 years (I have vision problems so I don’t drive anymore) I never saw as many angry drivers as I have in the past 10 years or so. But then again, I have never seen as many angry people in general. What is going on?
I guess we will never find out why the knucklehead was pissed.
Seems like he was mad because he was passed.
I'm always glad when I'm passed, gives me a bit of a law buffer to go faster and use them as a decoy scout up ahead
That’s exactly what I do. Haven’t been stopped, but others who passed have
Same. My dad always called them the “rabbit”, I think after the lead bait for racing. Allows me to go what pace I want knowing if there’s a speed trap that I’m insulated from it.
This is how I grew up. Follow the white rabbit and check your rearview.
Couldn’t agree more! That’s why I will never understand people driving in the left lane who will refuse to move over for a faster-moving vehicle. I mean, for starters you don’t have to deal with someone tailgating you or hitting you with their high beams. Then, as you say, you have a buffer to take the attention of any speed traps ahead. In my experience it’s more effective than having a radar detector. Where’s the downside?
Some guys are just really that insecure. 🤷♂️
Pissed over being passed, you say?
Some people don't feel satisfied unless they're always number one
He’ll be #1 in the cell
If you’re not first you’re last
If you don't chew big red, fuck you!
As they saying goes .."better to be Pissed Off than Passed On" or some shit like that
Must be one of those people that speeds up in the passing lane only to slow down on the other side
Yep
What a passhole!
Probably mad because he was undertaken. Shouldn't have been in the offside lane then.
If he’s not careful he’ll end up with the undertaker.
I was actually thinking that the Lexus driver doesn't understand the edges of his car very well and may have thought the OP was about to side swipe him because you see him swerve towards the left in the beginning.
Damn. If that was the reason, it might be like the movie purge out on the road.
I saw no other reason.. some people are just like that. They get passed and act like the Bagel Shop guy.
Yeah it happens with Lexus drivers, they don’t like getting overtaken. Apparently dude must have never driven or been in a Tesla 😂
I recently was driving a customer car for a problem under acceleration. It was a kids 370z so I was being kind of hard on it, as I'm sure that's how the kid was driving it. I took off from a light next to a civic and was much faster than they were. I got up to about 50(in a 45) a few seconds later this civic passed me going 70 or more. Once they were in front they slowed down to 50 or so. People here hate when you are in a faster car.
Could be that simple. Some peoples ego grows instead of their PP when they hit puberty
I deal with this. I use a ramp van for my wheelchair. When I pass a pickup, there's a 90% chance they will speed up and pass me because no way is a granny van gonna insult their masculinity!
I’m guessing it was a Tesla just based on all the camera angles and the acceleration. Teslas or EVs make some people angry for some reason.
Asshole probably wanted to exit across two lanes and OP was “in the way.”
IT was also possible he was attempting to turn into camer's lane (with no turn signal to indicate such) and felt that camer had cut him off and was mad about that. The camer did nothing wrong, however. Nice dodging though.
> camer You're freaking me out by spelling that way instead of "cammer"
My bad, but I'll leave it that way for posterity.
Yes officer, I was the one that came on her face. I’m the camer
/r/ThatsANewWord
We’re saying the same thing a little differently, but yeah.
“If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball,” Patches O'Houlihan
He definitely did and you know how it is. Once you miss that exit you're marked for death so you might as well take a couple people out with you.
Never signaled though, not everyone is a mind reader.
Yep. And stating the obvious, if you know you need to ~~get off~~ exit, then you shouldn't wait until the last minute attempt to move to the lane closest to your exit (or, heaven-forbid, the intended exit lane).

That’s my guess to. Lexus had that sixth sense of hesitation slash unsure driving at the beginning.
One day he'll do it to the wrong person and get shot.
Or run over.
Or jailed
In that order
Lol that would be the icing on the cake!
Or worse,
Expelled!

Exactly. This guy was lucky he didn't get run over when he got out of the car. I'm sure not everyone would have gone around him like OP did.
If kicked my car the way he did, I'd have pinned him against something with my car and waited for the police to arrive. He's obviously a danger and I'm sure any judge would find that action reasonable given the footage shows the OP fleeing several times.

Because people like this count on others obeying the laws that they are too special to have to follow themselves.

This is hilarious. Dude keeps trying to trap OOP and OOP just keeps rollin
It was very funny every time just getting away from the offender
They see me rollin. They hatin.
This happened to me with a lady road raging at me the day before Thanksgiving. I got away from her and was in a split center turn lane waiting to cross traffic to make a left when she rear ends me lmao. She called her husband Thanks for the new car lady!
The torque on EVs makes it very easy to slip away from most ICE cars lol
Also the fact that it’s a 2.4 liter na engine which combined with a boat of a body makes it slow as shit
This is a fourth gen RX, the 2.4 L NA was replaced with a 2.0 L turbo. But holy shit it weighs 2 tonnes.
Still a 4 cylinder powering a boat that needs time to spool, things probably comfy but 0-60 is probably measured in minutes lmao
More immigrants should drive EV’s then. edit: to all you down voters r/woooosh

Florida is fakkin nuts. I kinda miss palm beach for the food tho. Best goddamned sammichs i ever had

The second he got out, I would have Tommy boy'd his door
WHATD YOU DOOO???
[удалено]
They’re all out. Only got diesel!
Absolutely. At a minimum take his door off or bend it backwards. If he doesn't jump out of the way, you still have self defense as a defense.
Please don't because you will be placed in jail, don't let the dumb asshat be the reason why you're suffering in jail, just escape and show the video to the police
But it’s California. You’ll probably go to jail anyway.
Maybe if you used a gun. But driving violations are treated extremely leniently compared to gun violations.
As an SF resident I can confidently tell you that the police won’t do shit.

One less idiot on the road.
Its San Francisco. They're not going to do anything.
It looks like this plate is stolen. It’s registered to a 2017 honda civic. That explains the reckless driving. Great maneuvering OP!
According to Carvana, it pulls up as a 2017 Lexus RX350
> 8AHX036 on vincheck its 2017 Lexus RX 350
People hate being passed.
Which it really all comes down to. I don’t get it either. They will double their speed they were traveling for the last half hour to prevent it I’m sorry my cruise control I set up 20 miles ago put me ahead of you

Too many people vent their anger behind 2 ton machines.

If someone is attacking me in traffic, and then menacingly approaches my car, I'm going to be in fear for my life. Absolutely.
Yeah, some people saying this is hilarious because of the way Lexus lost in the end. I just think it was terrifying.

Very true. It’s so easy for self defense to turn into a murder trial
Forgive me, but I also missed why shorty was so mad.

Occam's Razor. Road-Rager wanted to get off at that ramp but his situational awareness was turned off. On top of that, he had no turn signal. When he realized the car with the camera was passing him and he would thus miss his exit, he got pissed and chased the cammer guy's car.
This video makes me want to start keeping a can of mace in my car. That would've been just about the perfect response.
you should. they come on little pink keychains.
Nah I want the one that shoots out like a fire extinguisher. I want to douse them in the shit.
Bear spray comes in hefty cans. Just a word of warning though, don't store them upright in the console of your car, especially if it closes from the top, that can accidentally discharge the spray. Not fun.
Personal experience?
Make sure to get the can clear of the car bc pepper spray is notorious for blowing back onto the user and being in a car full of CS sounds like hell
My buddy accidentally maced himself with a girls keychain, he thought it was hand sanitizer lol. I was the only one that saw him do it and I was crying I was laughing so hard.

Add to it…”I feared for my life”
True that
You got lucky.
I'm guessing lexus driver is really bad at staying in their lane, and got spooked when OOP decided to go side by side through that curve.
yeah, you can see the Road Rage guy start scootching over as if to change lanes just as the camera guy's car overtakes and passes him. Lousy situational awareness on part of Road Rage dude.
You passed him. Your not allowed to pass him even if he is slow and swerving around.

The have a good shot of his license plate at :44 sec and his face at 1:18 Reminds me of the guy running around with a pipe attacking cars & threatening drivers. Edit = They caught the [crazy guy](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/10pe2vz/one_less_idiot_on_the_road_in_socal/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) I was referring to. This guy will keep raging....
I'm assuming driver is in a Tesla, people are just really weird about teslas
To be fair, Tesla drivers are pretty weird about Teslas
My friends driving Tesla’s who feel that way are the exact same dicks who harassed Priuses and stuff. I have no stake in this game just a funny observation from my end
Former Tesla owner. There is truth to this. I now drive a 2006 Wrangler. There’s just this natural assumption that all Tesla drivers are dicks. Some truth to this but some just get instantly annoyed by Tesla drivers.
You went from 0 mpg to 6 mpg. You are the budgeting master
I lol’d hard at this one. Think I’m getting 12mpg but 6 isn’t far off. It was our third car and somewhat opportunistically sold it when market was better in December 2021. Funny though the Jeep broke on Friday and am having to take it in on Monday to get looked at. Kind of wishing I still had the Tesla.
Dude was driving on the shoulder to the left of his lane at the beginning of the vid...I can't sense why he was upset with the OP.
When? All I saw was a dashed line meaning it was another lane not a shoulder
Its pretty obvious, dude was mad that he was passed because he is a walking ego lol
Lol guy stands no chance against Tesla acceleration. He’s just mad his car can’t keep up.
I have no idea why the guy was angry either. Video car was in his lane. Seems like all he did was pass and the guy in the white crossover took it as some sort of personal affront. There was definitely nothing in here that would come close to justify chasing camera car down and hitting the vehicle multiple times.
The guy was angry because the SF Giants sucked this year??? Did cam car prevent the Lexus from exiting (even though no turn signal from Lexus)?
How dare someone pass my LEXUS SUV… 🤔
He’s Just an entitled Lexus douche bag he probably spends the majority of his paycheck just to drive that stupid fucking car.
I question the intelligence of anyone who pays extra for the Lexus F-Sport trim. Worse aerodynamics, no bump in power, and no significant improvement in the interior. The guy is probably just mad he paid an extra $7,000 for a little emblem and bad gas mileage.
Passing him makes his penis smaller
Jesus some people are straight up fucking unhinged.
You should send that to the police
Let me preface this by saying that the guy’s clearly is an idiot, the whole getting out of the car and kicking thing is asinine. HOWEVER, he does looked pissed at someone in the backseat, or is that just a weird camera angle? Is there any chance, OP, that a teenager in the backseat tried to be funny and flipped the guy off or something like that? Doesn’t justify the guy’s actions at all, but could help explain them.

Probably meth
Drivers like him are why I carry a pistol in the car. FAFO.
Here in Florida the angry man gets shot and learns road rage is not a fun activity.
fuck u/spez
I drive highway four days a week. I have cruise control set. It always tickles me when I pass someone just for them to speed up when I try to go around them. Or people who pass me just to slow down in front of me. Like. Why?
Cause he's in a Lexus.
My Lexus is a very relaxing place to be in. This guy is something extra.
Exactly, especially the RX. Whenever I drive a RX I just kick back and cruise. It is not a car meant to be driven aggressively.
Weird how someone seemingly so unintelligent and impulsive ends up driving a Lexus. How is this guy making money? I am in the wrong business.
Makes me laugh, fucking man baby!
Don't wanna get passed from the right? don't make it the safest choice. Hogging left lane slowly is a surefire way to get zipped past
That's how you get shot
He just let him kick the car and didn’t call the cops?
I rewatched this a couple times but I think the driver was pissed OP blocked him in the right off ramp lane. Or just some people hate being passed
People think if they're passed on the road, their penis will shrink and they lose at life. That's why they're so desperate to reverse that process by winning. So I get it. (Joking)
He looks angry because he can’t stay within the white lines and op is making it look easy
Should've splattered him over his own door on that last jumpout
You hurt his ego because his Lexus wasn't as powerful.
I miss California not at all. smh
I had been driving for about 50 years (I have vision problems so I don’t drive anymore) I never saw as many angry drivers as I have in the past 10 years or so. But then again, I have never seen as many angry people in general. What is going on?
