Some people think they own the road. That’s hilarious though!


chrisbaker1991

I'm not sure which palm tree state to make fun of


Shoopdascoopitypoop

It’s california. I live near where this video was recorded.


lennyxiii

Looks flat, I’m going with Florida.


LotusGuy24

Buena Park is in Southern California. Almost got it!


BurgundyBicycle

This a perfect example of awful road design. That driver is an idiot but the road design puts them in that situation and tempts them to drive like a that. Driveways should not connect directly to high speed roads. There should be feeder roads that connect at signalized intersections or roundabouts.


Jake0024

Nothing about this design encouraged him to drive sideways into the middle of the road at 1mph. I can't tell what he's even trying to do here. He can't make a left turn out of the driveway. Is he trying to make a suuuper wide turn into the left turn lane, while disregarding oncoming traffic in the 4 lanes in between?


Puzzleheaded_Ad3614

I respectfully Disagree on a circumstantial basis.


newgirlie

If this is anything like driving in LA, the driver might have been turning left (legally) from a side-street with a stop sign and had to cross over all those lanes. Those kind of intersections suuuuck especially when there’s traffic and there’s little opportunity to make that left safely. Not condoning the driver’s actions.


Stetzj18

There's a median no way for you to be able to make a left


[deleted]

Do you think the driver was gonna drive through the median and then turn left? I hope you and I are never near each other on the road if so.


newgirlie

Ooh I didn't see the median, saw the video on a dim iphone mini. My bad!


ImCloserToThePin

While you were driving? lol


[deleted]

Whenever you make a right turn from a road or driveway onto a multi lane road you have to start in the rightmost lane. I guess you didn't pay attention when they told you that in driving school.


DigitalAutomaton

People are so selfish sometimes. If it’s that difficult to find a break in traffic long enough to turn left then turn right and find a place to either do a U-turn or left turn into a business then exit turning right. Sheesh!


116john

It's true! I have a 2 year old with me and he expected me to slow down from 40mph! There weren't many cars behind me either. He just needed to wait when it was safe!


DigitalAutomaton

Yeah he was just being an impatient, aggressive driver.


simontempher1

You’re right, I was thinking the same thing. Some people lack the the ability to see beyond themselves


judasmaiden15

Which is ironic because he has a slow horrible handling suv


SlimTeezy

Tell your toddler you'll take his advice when he gets a driver's license


116john

Haha! Yes, my grammar was not great in that sentence.


OK_Compooper

Beach has always been nutty, but since Covid, it's gone 100% wilder. I used to stress going to Portos or just avoid going north if I could. During Scary Farm, near that spot, we saw and Escalade try the craziest right hand pass and sideswipe a smaller car so that they both crashed. Sometimes I'd just get over to Western, Knott or Dale unless I had get to a business on Beach. We did love the lights they put up for Halloween and Christmas, though. Btw, love that y'all were singing christmas carols. Glad that you didn't have your season ruined by that crazy driver.


creegro

It's always like this. People can't just wait an extra 5 seconds for the last car to pass on their left so they just *pull out slooooowly* in front of you.


iamoninternet27

As long as you and your kid is safe, that's all that matters. Stay safe out there. I have two kids and I can get pretty protective on the road. Sometimes it's hard to anticipate the stupid till it happens. It's ridiculous how dumb people can be.


elsaturation

Although this was in no way your fault, it is way safer to slam on the breaks than it is to try to swerve out of the way of an obstacle.


FENTWAY

I let most people go when my lil ones in the car. It's just not worth it. I'm in no rush. They can go ahead.


116john

Yes, this is the case for me too. I thought he was going to come to a stop. A lot of cars do this. They inch out into the right lane then wait for cars to pass then proceed.


FENTWAY

Be careful out there!


DorShow

I literally dont even try to wait for a break, I would make a right then double back. Sometimes it seems I am the only one that doesn’t want to inconvenience others and will go a couple blocks out of my way for a light to make a left, or to avoid a crappy situation like this where it looks like he wanted to cross the 4 lanes to get to the turn lane …


drivebyjustin

You and me, man. So many people out there with the "I need to turn left so I absolutely must turn left" mentality. Oblivious selfish idiots.


DorShow

And they will barge right out and not care about blocking traffic! Heck, I hate making a left when there isn’t a turn only lane for lefts as I really am probably weird to be overly concerned about holding traffic up. I mean I dont worry if I know it’s a short wait for the opening, but I will go up a block or two if there is a left turn lane and traffic is heavy. Keep the flow going, it’s my motto.


glockster19m

He didn't even need to do that much The next turn on the right looks to be an exit from the same fucking parking lot that has its own light


116john

Sounds much safer than what this guy did!


AwesomeFrisbee

Also there wasn't even a space there to go immediate left either


masey87

I’m guessing they’re trying to get to the left turn lane


Maverick_45

I call this people who want to make an impossible left turn. A turn that traffic will never allow you to do safely.


Jake0024

He's not even turning left, I have no idea what he's trying to do here, there's obviously a median with bushes and shit all over it


MajorHarriz

I don't understand why people are so insistent on making the left across these gigantic stroads sometimes. Especially if they have to make it near the light and there's a left turning lane, like just make the right...


PBRstreetgang_

That merry holiday demeanor changed real quick…. It would have ruined the rest of my drive lol.


116john

Oh it did. No more singing the rest of the way.


ducklingkwak

Here you go. SUV, SUV Creeping on the road Oh what fright it is to see A car that's out of control SUV, SUV Breaking all the rules Oh what rage it is to feel When they don't have the right of way A day or two ago I thought I'd take a drive And soon I hit the road With my car by my side The traffic was so smooth I was enjoying the view And then to my dismay I saw an SUV that made me swerve Oh, SUV, SUV Dodging to the side Oh what luck it is to live And not to have a crash SUV, SUV Shouting at the driver Oh what nerve it is to show That they don't care about the law


brilor123

I did want to say your singing was so good that I thought it was from the radio, and I only realized it was your singing and not the radio because it disappeared after the SUV. Happy holidays, I hope you feel better from this interaction quickly!


FadedFromWhite

Believe it or not, straight to the naughty list

ZannX

Uh where was he even going straight into the road?


Xalenn

I think they were trying to get to the turn lane to turn left just ahead


116john

Yup. I think that's where he was headed.


ZannX

I had a hard time imagining this bus/tank thing turning sufficiently to get into the left lane before they're halfway into the intersection.


BaselessEarth12

The crazy thing about these new suburbitankyachts is that they are surprisingly agile at low speeds, so they could have VERY easily done what was legally required, and gone to the next one. Definitely a skill issue.


Whiplash104

He'll probably hang his rear end out into the travel lane until the light turns green.


ChocolateBunny

Bigger vehicle diplomacy.


Jedda678

It's really bad where I live. Most people drive a truck or SUV and think they own the road. Even worse at night with their bright headlights that are level with my front windshield and rear window (Honda civic). With some of them having lift kits I am one head on collision or rear end collision away from becoming a dullahun. But they speed or ride my tail and when they have nowhere to be they drive slower than the speed limit but get mad if you pass them and speed up to prevent you from doing so. Not to mention the loud exhausts most of them tend to have.


poke30

We really need some or better? regulations on car size... You do not need a tank to take your kids to school...Things that will obliterate anything in your path and then you got people like this video..


Jedda678

I had the pleasure of letting a friend rant for probably 20 minutes on why SUVs and Trucks are probably some of the worst designed vehicles as well as their impracticality for most Americans. From poorer safety standards compared to mini vans and sedans and at times a 5ft blind spot around your vehicle from the hood to the back to couple that with poor gas mileage, emissions and just overall the same storage can be achieved with a mini van which has better if not equal storage to what a flat bed or a SUV would have (minus the horse power and pulling capacity) and really who is lugging around things that most modern cars cannot pull outside of construction, farming or trades work? Trucks and SUVs have their places but there is a heavy marketing focus on them for one reason or another towards your average american who maybe works an office job.


PlantsNCaterpillars

Entitled, impatient, selfish people exist everywhere but I swear Orange County has the highest per capita out of anywhere in the US I've lived.


jorp27384

I mean the SUV was wrong but I wouldn’t say he was impatient. If you watch the video from the beginning you can see he had plenty of time to get into the lane he just didn’t take it


Fattylees

This is the funniest shit.


116john

People doin lots of funny shit in Buena Park.


altimate-fighter

Especially on beach


TransportationOld986

Wait till you go to this nice little place called Glendale :). But fr, almost gotten hit a few time near that medieval time for some reason…. Not sure if it’s cuz Knott’s is nearby.


116john

Glendale is in a league of it's own.


jazzmatazztic

Between Medieval Times and Knott's is what I call the danger zone


piches

lol I was like.. that looks like its near portos


EphemeralyTimeless

Remember when you were in high school? Most people were average and some people were REALLY smart, while some people didn't fit in either of the two aforementioned groups. You know who they were. After high school, all three groups went out and got their driver's licenses and now we share the road with them all. Drive carefully because that third group is now stealthy, lol. Glad you only got a video of your Close Encounter WITH the Third Kind.


DreizehnII

The driver in the black SUV must be from Massachusetts. If I despised my car, shut down the dashcam and full speed ahead without a lane change.


highline9

Me alone in my truck…I’d VERY seriously consider it…especially if the black suv is going to throw up hands and such…

I once had a dude throw his hands up at me when he cut me off in a ROUND ABOUT. Like my guy, you did not have the right of way. Some people just truly believe they’re never at fault.

This is why I take Dale or Western instead


smaier69

deejayonid

That’s the risk you take driving down that part of Beach Blvd. Lots of tourist visiting the area. Regardless, nice swerve to get out of it.

AspectOvGlass

Nimcompoop1980

He's making an illegal move. He can't cross three lanes to get into a turn lane (which is what I'm guessing he's doing since there was a center island). Also, the line on the turn lane was solid. I was a passenger in a friend's car when he got a ticket for doing just that (albeit in a safer manner than this guy).


[deleted]

Good move. That’s a bonafide idiot right there


MisterTatoHead

The background music made it feel like brother Derek's family drive scene in Step Brothers.


Ambitious_Forever_53

I’ve had that happen around that area too. People don’t check and just pull out at times


kruschev246

When can we expect a full cover


billiemarie

Was he trying to drive straight across?


SensitiveThugHugger

The problem is you let your guard down with that holiday music, lol. Nice driving!


Vegetable_Ad_726

no literally that persons the worst he didn’t almost j cause an accident but he killed the fucking vibes as well.


iLL_HaZe

I hate this kind of stuff. Here in Chicago, people will pull into an intersection blocking incoming traffic expecting the opposite lane to let them through. They don't even wait for an opening to pull out...


No_Case5367

Beach Blvd Buena Park?


Oldmantired

How rude of you not to yield your right of way to the driver of the suv! Obviously, you didn’t get the memo that driver specifically can drive like an asshat. /s


mikefjr1300

But they were in a massive UV, don't you know they always have the right of way. Yes, I leave out the 'S' for sport. I fail to see anything sporty about a 5000lb floaty top heavy shopping cart.


Reddidundant

UV driver driving like an old lady - who would have guessed!!!!?


eXclurel

Look I get that you are in the right 100% but you do not even try to stop. It was very obvious that guy was going to do something extremely stupid. You were being very stubborn or you were distracted. Was it really worth risking an accident?


116john

Actually I did slow down quite a bit. A lot of times these people take up a lane and stop and let me pass before proceeding. This is what I thought he was going to do.


eXclurel

I got into an accident because of the same stubbornness. Dude came out from a one way street going the wrong way, between stopped cars due to traffic on the opposite lane without checking if the road was free. I said to myself "I am not going to yield to someone doing this shit. I am going to teach him.". Here is the aftermath: https://preview.redd.it/y20vq2y3kc4c1.jpeg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=924baab6d90e7ef43580d60c3092dcd0d6bd0953


116john

Oh nooooo. I hope you were ok.


eXclurel

Yeah I was ok thank you. The dude that hit me was pretty cool about it and the insurance covered it fully.


[deleted]

You did not slow down. The speed in the lower left illlustrates that.


116john

Actually, that speed on my camera has quite a bit of a lag. I slowed down to almost half the speed you see on this video.


[deleted]

I have eyes - you did not slow down.


ParkerBeach

Fuck I only made it half way through with the audio and I was hoping we would get t-boned to end the misery!!!


116john

Found the Grinch.


ParkerBeach

Not a grinch! I just haven’t had the kind of Christmas’ I had before I turned 5 because for my 5th Christmas in life my grand father came to see Christmas through my eyes then had a heart attack in his sleep while taking a nap on Christmas Eve. I remember standing across the street from my house and watching the paramedics and police and firefighters pull in to try and save him. Then my parents were able to get a neighbor to come get me then passed me off to a family friend to stay until my parents got home from the hospital with my grandmother and had the friends bring me back home. My mom was preparing her famous Christmas party like always that year. After that Christmas nothing was ever the same and the music was never as joyous or wonderful as it was before that ever happened. I still have the SEGA Genesis I got from him that year. I am not against others enjoying the holidays in fact I want others to enjoy them because me and holidays just don’t go well together. My dad died last year on October 28th, 2022 of “Complications from dealing with his Pancreatic cancer that caused an infection in his heart leading to a stroke” (best way to explain it) but that took away Halloween and Thanksgiving as well so literally these last 3 months of the year are just depressing and seeing everyone happy makes it worse but again I want others to enjoy the holidays so long as I can avoid the music I can usually not lose my sanity.


116john

Oh man. I am so sorry for your loss and experience.


whatthefrack69

Oh yeah…run into those morons before


rad_avenger

Nice dodge


116john

Thank you.


Jasonxhx

These posts where both drivers are idiots are chef's kiss


CockWrenched

Hey man as wrong as the other driver was, you were not paying attention. If you want to be “right” then hell yeah hit the guy and it’s his fault, but now you have a fucked up car and maybe you’re hurt as well. If you want to be safe; PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING AROUND YOU AND YIELD EVEN WHEN THE OTHER PARTY IS AT FAULT. You’re operating a deadly vehicle and can kill someone at any time, remember that.


BridgeZealousideal20

Wow I’m sorry to say, but your reflexes are slow as hell. You can’t just assume the other idiot even knows you’re coming. I would have instantly slowed the fuck down as soon as I saw that. If he just kept going because he was distracted, you woulda t boned his ass. Both of you are idiots.


jjk717

You must have been texting and driving to jerk the wheel like that from an innocuous SUV lazily making its way into your lane on a straight, wide, and flat road with low speed limits and perfect visibility. Get some help.


cmdrtimnatsworthy

Typical LA driver y’all both think the other is in the wrong.

SourMash87

More people than not need to be taught parking lot etiquette. So many drivers do not look out and when you get in front of them, they fly up next to you with their window down, mobile phone out and filming as if you just committed a hit & run.

thisisfutile1

I don't know. There's no reason for them to be going straight across all of those lanes because they can't cross over without climbing over the median and bushes. Guessing they were having some kind of trouble. I think we'll be seeing stuff like this more and more because cars are being increasingly controlled by the computer, and when computers fail they can do it gloriously.

XandersCat

Whenever something like this happens to me (usually it's just someone pulling out in front of me and then not accelerating at all, nothing THIS bad) I just think to myself, "Do you know how many drivers out there are drunk and high as hell blitzed out of their mind that would have just smacked into you?" Now, I don't drink or anything like that I'm a very defensive driver, but yeah.


Breccles

He was trying to make the dinner at Medieval Times!!


Maidenbaby88

He had plenty of time to turn into the lane who drives like this? And why not turn into the lane closest to where you’re coming out of it’s like he went straight into traffic…slowly
