Yep years ago i was on a highway and the truck in front on me had a ladder in back...and as you guessed, it fell off and i ran over it. He wasn't even in my lane smh. But luckily no damage.
A similar thing happened on day I was driving. Two dogs ran onto the highway. 100 cars were all breaking, many stopped completely, and many turned on hazard lights. One woman didn't even slow down. She went around everyone in the left break down lane doing about 70. She hit the two dogs killing them both instantly. Then she pulls over and starts crying. If the entire highway is slamming on their breaks, maybe you should too. Not get annoyed because you are in a hurry to go shopping and accelerate around. There might be a reason everyone else is stopping.
I hit a ladder on the 405 once, nobody hit there hazard lights. The person in front of me hit it and changed the angle of the ladder, and I was not able to swerve because there were cars on both side. I made a quick decision to take the hit and I aimed the right tires for the center rungs of the ladder, as the ladder had become perpendicular to me. I went directly over the middle rings crushing all of them. Surprisingly the tires were fine and I had a small scratch on the plastic underneath the car that nobody can see. Somehow got away with no consequences
Similar incident to me on beltway 8 in Houston a year ago - some genius left a spare tire, rim and all, laying flat on the middle of the tollway; car ahead of me swerved and in fairness I should have left more following distance. I had .5 seconds to see the tire, check my left side, and swerve left so that it made contact with my right tire - loud pop, slight swerve, but was able to limp to the shoulder. Grateful I didn't flip, and grateful it only cost me a tire. Surprisingly no body damage or axle damage. My lesson was learned in making sure you leave a car or more of a gap in front of you. Could have been a lot worse. Still furious at the idiot who either didn't realize they dropped the spare or watched it drop off and shrugged their shoulders.
@@kyleknight9686 He's completely sane. You were way too close to the car in front of you. Here's the proof: you didn't have time to react to a road obstruction. This isn't something you need to hit a ladder on the road to understand. It's not rocket science. And we still know you don't know how to drive because of this gem: "leave a car or more of a gap in front of you". Yeah 1 car gap. That'll do it. Good luck surviving.
In Australia on a highway I once saw a 4x4 in front of me with the back right tire looking "suspicious" all of a sudden, like "flapping". Instinctively, I slowed down, put on the hazard lights, and sure enough, the tire burst. Luckily the highway had a middle grassy area as they sometimes do in Australia, with no guardrail, so the guy quickly went right and stopped safely there. Later I pulled off to refuel at a petrol station and a lady behind me thanked me, apparently she was behind me when the tire burst. She told me she'd never have stopped in time in my situation.
I could be driving on the moon and I would have a tailgater. I pick them up everywhere. I live in a very isolated place in Texas, middle of nowhere, and when I leave my house I usually get a tailgater. And it doesn't matter how fast you drive on a highway; there's the D-head tailgater right on schedule. Glad to see one eat a ladder! hahahaha
I remember the worst tailgating I experienced was a combination of her, plus some horrendous luck. I was winding down a narrow two-lane that went on forever trying to meet my mom in her new house. Endless hills, swerves and bends that combined with the view of the tailgater whizzing past my rear view to make me so nauseous. I try to lose her by turning onto one of the side streets, all equally small, long and swirvy, to my dismay, and she turns right along with me every time, tailgating the whole way. After only several minutes of this drug-trip of a ride, I simply can't take it anymore, and pull up to the next house to let her pass. (Laughter) It was HER house. I quickly learn this when I see her TAILGATING me right into HER own driveway! (bad idea, I guess?) She leaps from her car and starts yelling at me, "What are you DOING ?!??" I'm saahrry!!! I'm saahrry, Lady!!! I'm just tryna... GET THA FACK AWAY FREM YEWW !!! " 😱
In Norway we are adviced to stay 3-seconds behind. I always do. When someone tailgates me, I let go of the pedal and lose speed until he gets the point and increases distance, or passes me.
@@rj8767 contrary to global beliefs, you're not going to get shot in the US for taking the last box of cereal on the shelf someone else was also wanting to grab.
In the USA, your 3 seconds mean that you'll be hitting your breaks constantly as all the cars start jumping in front of you. On a busy highway you'll never have a 3 seconds of distance ever.
@@user-jg4bt5zi3h you're exaggerating. i have no trouble having 3 seconds of distance pretty consistently. people sometimes jump in front of me, yeah. so i slow down for a moment. i get to my destination 3 seconds later than otherwise. whatever.

@BigTestes At highway speeds, you're supposed to maintain a three-second or four car length distance between yourself and the leading vehicle. The following vehicle was barely two car lengths away and got even closer when the leading vehicle signaled a hazard. The very fact that they already have front end damage to their car and were following too closely to react in time to an unexpected hazard in the road, clearly shows that they have issues with tailgating.
This happened to me while going to work. A guy was tailgating me and honking at me because a ladder dropped from a truck adjacent to me, which caused me to slow down to 20 MPH. I then got near the ladder and swerved to miss it. He plowed straight ahead and right into the ladder. I was very delighted with the outcome. I’m sure he was as well.
I’ve had the same pleasure a few times. The best one was the Escape’s broken air dam scraping the road. Unfortunately it did not deter their urge to try and park their car in my trunk.
@@potatofriend401 Pretty often though I wasn’t referring to a ladder specifically but rather other things in the road that were originally in someone’s pickup. So I apologize for not being more specific.
@@joeyoungs8426 Nah I know that you didn't mean ladders in particular haha. Just weird to hear that something with the potential of being very dangerous happens that often.
@@potatofriend401 people think shit is just going to stay in their truck without straps for some reason. People dont think ahead when they pick the stuff up themselves at all. (i deal with customer load outs thats how i know)
Don't tailgate, ever. You need at least one car length for every 10 miles an hour you're driving at in order to have a reasonable chance of stopping in an emergency without hitting the car in front you. One time someone was tailgating me at night, and I pulled over on the side of the road to let them pass because it was too annoying. As I pulled over, they actually followed me and came to a complete stop behind me, before realizing what happened and screeching away. Can you imagine not paying attention to that extent?? Tailgaters are usually doing it because they think they can rely on the peripheral view of the car ahead of them while they look down at their cell phone or something. That or they have a personality disorder which prevents them from behaving rationally. Only very stupid, screwed up people do it. Everyone else can grasp the basic concept of allowing several car lengths between yourself and other vehicles. When I find out someone habitually tailgates, I lose all respect for that person. They probably also drink and drive. You can't trust their judgment, so keep them at a distance, out of your life.
Once in the 70's I was driving on a 2-lane, winding highway, doing the speed limit, with a tailgater not more than 6 feet behind me and I couldn't get him to slow down. Finally, I pulled off the road a little onto the dirt shoulder, which kicked up a big, chunky, cloud of dirt, dust, and debris onto his car. The guy slowed down. I've used that trick a few times since and it works every time.
@@Kakarot64. shiit, a couple of wacks from a hammer and that thing is mint again. I've seen people climb on ladders what look like a bomb went off right under it and they are on it like it was nothing.
son gohan he said that "(the) idiot that lost the ladder is guilty of one crime and the tailgater is another", not that you were an idiot. i mean, that one is true too since you're being incredibly aggressive for no reason but that's beside the point.
I LOVE messing with tail gaters. One day in slow traffic, in a school zone, I waved for a tail gater to go around me. There was a radar cop waitin for him. Bam.
i'd like to pay a small tribute to the lexington ma cop who was over to the right when I merged onto mass ave with a guy behind me blasting his horn and cutting me off to get ahead of me. I then pulled out and was behind him on mass ave. suddenly I see the cop behind me, the one who would have seen the whole thing. the cop tailgated me and i got the message and pulled to the right and slowed down. the cop passed me and turned his lights on and pulled the tailgater over. it was one of the most delightful experiences I have ever known.
Some dude tailgated my dad while I was in the car with him, and the dude hit my dads car (we weren’t on a highway so we could easily pull over) the other dude did too. When the cops came they found out it wasn’t his car and he had actually “borrowed” it and didn’t have a driving license. Karmas a bitch isn’t she? My dad had a small dent but he got it fixed shortly after.
Some dude was tail gating me in his super charged car during peak hour. We were on a 2 land road, there was a car far ahead of me in my lane turning off but had wait for traffic. I had enough space to go into the next lane but the dude behind me didn’t so i moved over at the last second and the tailgater couldn’t do the same. He had to wait for the turning car before continuing. My dash cam was playing up at the time so I didn’t get the footage :(
I have a very effective technique. I just go slower...and slower......and slower........and slower............and slower..........Watching their rage build is entertaining and worth the few extra minutes it takes me to get where im going.
As a truck driver...i can tell you, my hazard lights don't mean a thing to 99% of the drivers out there. Its so bad that often wonder if people are even taught what they are for.
This is one of my complaints about modern drivers education. They spend so much time talking about the dangers of alcohol consumption and spend almost no time talking about the actual dangers of driving a 2000 lb+ land missle on a road with other vehicles. Not once in drivers ed did I hear "if you pass a semi do it as quickly as possible and try not to linger next to them because if they blow a tire (fairly common) it is like a bomb that explodes and throws a lot of debris in every direction. It will be loud, unexpected, scary as hell, and very difficult to properly react to, no matter how skilled of a driver you are and no matter how sober you are" or " the front axel of a car can snap unexpectedly, instantly causing a loss of control if not flipping and rolling while throwing debris" or "a tire can throw a rock at your windshield, shattering it, faster than you can blink" or "in heavy traffic one tailgater can create a multiple hour traffic jam across a 4 lane highway just by being to close and and having to overreact by breaking hard" ... But they spent two weeks telling me if I saw a can of beer and and a car in the same day I will drop dead instantly
This is facts right here. I just finished driver's ed and they basically told me how much I can drink while still being able to drive. They also guilt tripped me almost every unit with a story of some kid dying cause some other kid or kids were being stupid. Maybe instead of teaching kids that being stupid will get them killed, driver's ed should teach them either how to not get killed if they do something stupid or the exact process following the car (as in explaining that the car with do a flip and send debris everywhere) that will get them killed if they still want to scare people.
This is also why I look forward to self-driving cars. Like you said, a car is a "2000 lb+ land missile" and I'm pretty sure most people (myself included) don't have the combination of motor skills, reaction time, concentration and "mutli-tasking" abilities it takes to operate a lethal weapon safely.
@@dinohall2595 if you don't have the skills to drive, you shouldn't be driving plain and simple...if you can't multi-task then a bus or uber might be safest for everyone on the road
@@Boogly83 No one can truly multi-task. The human brain can only focus on one task at a time. That's why I say "multi-tasking" as you are just switching your focus from one task to the next. Because of this, its no wonder about 1 in 88 people are either killed or seriously injured by a car at some point. It's not merely about having the skills to drive, but the skills to drive almost perfectly. The consequences are uniquely high for the typical margin of error, and confounding variables like emotion and health can impair driving ability at relative random. It's unfortunate we live in a society where driving is more or less a necessity since public transportation only provides limited access. This is why self-driving cars are something the world needs.
We weren’t tailgating, but several years ago my mother and I were following a semi truck when an improperly secured sledgehammer few off of them an almost hit us. My mother followed them to their destination and gave them a piece of her mind.
@@trustthe_process4371 when you know you'll stuck in traffic, OR, you know you'll be so panic and not in the right mind to tailgate someone, potentially killing yourself and the patient
@@trustthe_process4371 It's city logic. Where an ambulance is only 5 to 10 minutes away. I personally know several people who have driven halfway to meet the ambulance (one of them was the patient). Police are also sometimes called to try and find said private car, and escort them to meet the ambulance. But that's life outside of cities. Where an ambulance could be several hours away.
Alan Sadler You get to the destination sooner if the person in front gets the hint and speeds up or pulls over. Or sometimes it is a good way just to shit people lol.
I'm a firm believer in...if you want to go fast, make your own path.... As long as I'm doing the speed limit I could care less if someone else wants to go 85. Find a way around. It's not my job to help you break the law. The speed limit doesn't change just because you're in the left lane. If it did, there'd be signs.
Sometimes when people tailgate me, I pretend to dodge something crazy in front of me and swerve over nothing. That usually scares them and they get way back.
@Redneck Hillbilly Given your username, I find myself asking if you're really pretending... Lol! I'm sorry, I mean nothing by this. I just thought it was funny... 🤣😂🙂
I once had a tailgater, so I break checked him so hard he veered off to the side with that screeching tyre sound, one of his rims came off and I looked into my side mirror as he plowed through a group of kindergarten children and knocked them all over the place like bowling pins. Never laughed so hard on my life, never tailgate a man.
I hate this stupid mentality. People buy used cars... A lot actually... and most of the time they aren't in pristine condition. Almost every vehicle except my new truck that I've owned was damaged by the previous owner. You're a clown.
I call these drunk mobiles. Bad drivers dent them up when drunk and never have insurance to fix them. Used to be seen with extensive use of Bondo and primer grey paint. But today's drunks just leave the dents as a warning to other drivers, and early notification to cops that they need another dui.
It's the sign of a shitty driver, I see it all the time somebody does something stupid then I take a look at their car and it is usually already banged up. Bumper hanging off or missing, or the body has lots of dents.
Unfortunately some people never learn. Nothing wrong with driving a an econo car but take pride in your equipment. External is a reflection of what's happening internally.
@@sixstrings2 like the guy the other week who was weaving in and out 40 MPH, two lane city traffic @ 60 MPH with a donut for one of his front tires and both side mirrors missing.
The craziest thing about this Is it’s easier to pull out into another lane if you give yourself plenty of room between you and the car ahead of you so you can properly accelerate.
@@chizoioioi nope. Usually I'm just going the speed that traffic is going, and some dick wannabe formula 1 driver speeds up right behind me, tailgates, serves across two lanes in the smallest possible opening, and tailgates the next person. Driving like that causes accidents, or forces other people to suddenly slow down, both of which actually cause traffic, making the whole situation worse for everyone. So no, I won't give them special treatment.
Did anyone say they where in the passing lane? :D esqueue I do that also. I was going 10 over the speed limit on a one lane each way so I did the speed limit instead. Guy went in on coming traffic to go around me just to get stuck behind someone already going under the speed limit.
I slow down to 5-10 under speed limit when I’m being tailgated. usually takes around half a minute for them idiots to figure out what’s happening, they either get off my ass or overtake
John Galt If you did that I'd continue the trend to -20, -30, and if that doesn't work I'll stop completely. Doesn't matter if it's intentional or not if you tailgate me I don't play games. If you're particularly close I may not give you a warning and switch speeds immediately.
lmao i would just pull into a police station if you tried following me home, only a true psychopath cares enough to do shit like that after something so petty
I think you're right. You can see at the very beginning that the front end of his car is already beat all to hell. There's no telling how many vehicles he's plowed into while driving that car.
@@2inchdestroyer475 Tailgates stereotypes? 🤔 Do not get me started with the rage monster stereotype. But who cares, its TH-cam, they do it for the content!
Years ago in California, listening to a radio talk show as I drove to work, I heard this bit of information. 15% of drivers are tailgaters who are involved in 60% of car crashes. I think the 15% has grown a bit since then.
callmevegas2008 from what ive seen from google images and compare it, the one in the video really seems like it has a dented hood near the front. Look at the front of it just right above the grill line perhaps even the top of the grill itself, it is uneven on the left side. The hood doesnt look like it can fully close as it couldve if it was factory new as well, given how gapped it is above the left headlight.
@Just bored 10-15 is still inside the safe limits designed for the roads. In most places around the world there is a rule something like "limit + 10% is excusable" precisely because of that. The only one putting people in real danger in that case are the tailgaters.
@@mrvini1998 Okay, but 10-15 over puts you well above the "limit + 10%" rule for all but the slowest roads. Assume 25 MPH which is a school zone and typically the slowest you'll encounter on public roads. Your 10% rule says you can go 27.5 MPH. If you were going 10 over and following the "10% rule" then you'd be in a zone rated for 100 MPH !!! The rule you're stating isn't correct. Either way folks, don't speed. Those limits were chosen not only for road conditions but visibility of turns and intersections. More thought went into determining those limits than any one of use would use at that moment driving down the road.
Don’t tailgate to begin with. If it didn’t run the very real risk of damaging my vehicle, I’d probably be brakechecking so many people every day for being like, two feet behind me.
I remember seeing a manhole cover that was partially off of the manhole. I pulled over, stopped, turned on my Hazards and started walking towards it (side street with parking on both sides so plenty of room and little traffic). The edge of the manhole was about 12" (~30cm) on my side of the centerline. One guy slowed down when he saw my car with the Hazards flashing and when I signaled him to stop he did so, and when the oncoming car coming from the other direction passed he went over to that side of the road to safely pass the hazard. Then came the idiot! Ignored my car's hazards, caused me to take 3 or 4 quick steps towards the curb, gave me the middle finger salute as he sped up.... The manhole cover flipped a bit damaging the bottom of his radiator and oil pan (judging by the colors of what liquids were leaking onto the road!!) and when his drivers side front tire hit the far side of the manhole it popped with a very loud bang!!! The guy got out of his car with an angry & astonished look on his face, turn to glare at me... I just looked him in the eye and shrugged, walked over to where the cover now rested and then pushed it back so it properly was on the manhole, walked back to my car and drove off! All this time he had a WTF!!! look on his face and neither of us said a word to each other! This was about 15 years before cell phones were even around, and a number of decades before they became common. Don't know how long it was before he got help, and truthfully, I don't care!!!

It is amazing how much people insist on ignoring a warning. My latest was a deer hit. The deer had ran into the side of a ladies car. The deer's hind quarters had been disabled by the impact, and was in the road unable to move. The lady who's car it had ran into was standing by the road's edge in shock. She kept waking back out on the road, and I would escort her back off because of traffic. I was wanting to pull the deer off the road, but flagging oncoming traffic and keeping the lady off the road prevented me from doing it. Two different oncoming cars ran right over the deer, with the second one finally killing it. The second car had a little surprise though. Half of the deer must of gotten stuck in the undercarriage of his car, because only half the deer remained on the road. A buddy of mine works for the Department of Roads, and he was sent out to pick it up, but only found the half left where I had dragged to to the edge of the road. He drove a couple of miles down the road looking for the rest of it, but never found it. I bet that was a nice mess.
I've started using my car to block the danger (if it's something more serious then some debris in the road) at this point especially if it's and injured animal or large items (like the strangest one was a small fridge in the road) Cops never seem to care so I think I'm fine Plus it's better then seeing someone hit something and kill it or themselves because they wanna ignore hazards
Always drive extremely close to vehicles in front of you, also when approaching a red light, speed all the way to it then slam on the brakes just inches away from the person in front of you, make sure you’re phone is attached to the dash with tiktok on and keep your music as loud as you can get it, and don’t forget to keep a vape/cigarette in one hand and a slurpie/energy drink in the other hand, these are what keeps our roads safe
How do I get to heaven? Will my good deeds be measured against my bad deeds? Do I need to be a good person to go to heaven? How do I know if I'm good enough? Well the bible says no man is good, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. So how do we get to heaven? Answer: By believing on Jesus Christ who took the punishment for our sin on the cross. There are no amount of good works we can do to achieve salvation because salvation is a free gift of God. We need to humble ourselves, realize we are sinners and that we need a savior. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave his only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

It always baffles me how people will tailgate you as if you're supposed to magically speed through the 27 other cars directly in front of you in that lane that are all going the same speed in rush hour traffic.
This made my day. Thank you! But... The line at the end was incorrect: Not, "if you see hazard lights, don't tailgate." The ONLY thing needed to say is, "DON'T tailgate." This is only ONE good example of why it's idiotic to tailgate.
Props to the black truck that launched the ladder knowing it would land in the next lane, knowing the buick would ride over, and knowing to aim it perfectly so it hit the tailgater’s wheel.

A similar thing happened on day I was driving. Two dogs ran onto the highway. 100 cars were all breaking, many stopped completely, and many turned on hazard lights. One woman didn't even slow down. She went around everyone in the left break down lane doing about 70. She hit the two dogs killing them both instantly. Then she pulls over and starts crying. If the entire highway is slamming on their breaks, maybe you should too. Not get annoyed because you are in a hurry to go shopping and accelerate around. There might be a reason everyone else is stopping.

In Australia on a highway I once saw a 4x4 in front of me with the back right tire looking "suspicious" all of a sudden, like "flapping". Instinctively, I slowed down, put on the hazard lights, and sure enough, the tire burst. Luckily the highway had a middle grassy area as they sometimes do in Australia, with no guardrail, so the guy quickly went right and stopped safely there. Later I pulled off to refuel at a petrol station and a lady behind me thanked me, apparently she was behind me when the tire burst. She told me she'd never have stopped in time in my situation.
Great job!

I could be driving on the moon and I would have a tailgater. I pick them up everywhere. I live in a very isolated place in Texas, middle of nowhere, and when I leave my house I usually get a tailgater. And it doesn't matter how fast you drive on a highway; there's the D-head tailgater right on schedule. Glad to see one eat a ladder! hahahaha
Literally every time I drive my car I get tailgated. Everywhere I go every single second. Anytime of day.
I remember the worst tailgating I experienced was a combination of her, plus some horrendous luck.
I was winding down a narrow two-lane that went on forever trying to meet my mom in her new house.
Endless hills, swerves and bends that combined with the view of the tailgater whizzing past my rear view to make me so nauseous.
I try to lose her by turning onto one of the side streets, all equally small, long and swirvy, to my dismay,
and she turns right along with me every time, tailgating the whole way.
After only several minutes of this drug-trip of a ride, I simply can't take it anymore, and pull up to the next house to let her pass.
(Laughter) It was HER house. I quickly learn this when I see her TAILGATING me right into HER own driveway! (bad idea, I guess?) She leaps from her car and starts yelling at me, "What are you DOING ?!??"

LOL that's what i was actually thinking hahaha
@BigTestes At highway speeds, you're supposed to maintain a three-second or four car length distance between yourself and the leading vehicle. The following vehicle was barely two car lengths away and got even closer when the leading vehicle signaled a hazard. The very fact that they already have front end damage to their car and were following too closely to react in time to an unexpected hazard in the road, clearly shows that they have issues with tailgating.
@BigTestes Tailgating is driving too close to another vehicle. Speed increases the zone where a person is considered a tailgater.
LoL Indians have average speed of 100-110km/hr on highways in America it's like 200+, speed matters guys
Edit: wrong info
This happened to me while going to work. A guy was tailgating me and honking at me because a ladder dropped from a truck adjacent to me, which caused me to slow down to 20 MPH. I then got near the ladder and swerved to miss it. He plowed straight ahead and right into the ladder. I was very delighted with the outcome. I’m sure he was as well.
I’ve had the same pleasure a few times. The best one was the Escape’s broken air dam scraping the road. Unfortunately it did not deter their urge to try and park their car in my trunk.

Don't tailgate, ever. You need at least one car length for every 10 miles an hour you're driving at in order to have a reasonable chance of stopping in an emergency without hitting the car in front you. One time someone was tailgating me at night, and I pulled over on the side of the road to let them pass because it was too annoying. As I pulled over, they actually followed me and came to a complete stop behind me, before realizing what happened and screeching away. Can you imagine not paying attention to that extent?? Tailgaters are usually doing it because they think they can rely on the peripheral view of the car ahead of them while they look down at their cell phone or something. That or they have a personality disorder which prevents them from behaving rationally. Only very stupid, screwed up people do it. Everyone else can grasp the basic concept of allowing several car lengths between yourself and other vehicles. When I find out someone habitually tailgates, I lose all respect for that person. They probably also drink and drive. You can't trust their judgment, so keep them at a distance, out of your life.
Once in the 70's I was driving on a 2-lane, winding highway, doing the speed limit, with a tailgater not more than 6 feet behind me and I couldn't get him to slow down. Finally, I pulled off the road a little onto the dirt shoulder, which kicked up a big, chunky, cloud of dirt, dust, and debris onto his car. The guy slowed down. I've used that trick a few times since and it works every time.
i used to have a funky washer fluid dispenser that would make the car behind me turn on their wipers. it was too much fun to use against convertibles.

I LOVE messing with tail gaters. One day in slow traffic, in a school zone, I waved for a tail gater to go around me. There was a radar cop waitin for him. Bam.
i'd like to pay a small tribute to the lexington ma cop who was over to the right when I merged onto mass ave with a guy behind me blasting his horn and cutting me off to get ahead of me. I then pulled out and was behind him on mass ave. suddenly I see the cop behind me, the one who would have seen the whole thing. the cop tailgated me and i got the message and pulled to the right and slowed down. the cop passed me and turned his lights on and pulled the tailgater over. it was one of the most delightful experiences I have ever known.
That was me asshole
Some dude tailgated my dad while I was in the car with him, and the dude hit my dads car (we weren’t on a highway so we could easily pull over) the other dude did too. When the cops came they found out it wasn’t his car and he had actually “borrowed” it and didn’t have a driving license. Karmas a bitch isn’t she? My dad had a small dent but he got it fixed shortly after.
Some dude was tail gating me in his super charged car during peak hour. We were on a 2 land road, there was a car far ahead of me in my lane turning off but had wait for traffic. I had enough space to go into the next lane but the dude behind me didn’t so i moved over at the last second and the tailgater couldn’t do the same. He had to wait for the turning car before continuing. My dash cam was playing up at the time so I didn’t get the footage :(

This is one of my complaints about modern drivers education. They spend so much time talking about the dangers of alcohol consumption and spend almost no time talking about the actual dangers of driving a 2000 lb+ land missle on a road with other vehicles. Not once in drivers ed did I hear "if you pass a semi do it as quickly as possible and try not to linger next to them because if they blow a tire (fairly common) it is like a bomb that explodes and throws a lot of debris in every direction. It will be loud, unexpected, scary as hell, and very difficult to properly react to, no matter how skilled of a driver you are and no matter how sober you are" or " the front axel of a car can snap unexpectedly, instantly causing a loss of control if not flipping and rolling while throwing debris" or "a tire can throw a rock at your windshield, shattering it, faster than you can blink" or "in heavy traffic one tailgater can create a multiple hour traffic jam across a 4 lane highway just by being to close and and having to overreact by breaking hard" ...
But they spent two weeks telling me if I saw a can of beer and and a car in the same day I will drop dead instantly
This is facts right here. I just finished driver's ed and they basically told me how much I can drink while still being able to drive. They also guilt tripped me almost every unit with a story of some kid dying cause some other kid or kids were being stupid. Maybe instead of teaching kids that being stupid will get them killed, driver's ed should teach them either how to not get killed if they do something stupid or the exact process following the car (as in explaining that the car with do a flip and send debris everywhere) that will get them killed if they still want to scare people.
This is also why I look forward to self-driving cars. Like you said, a car is a "2000 lb+ land missile" and I'm pretty sure most people (myself included) don't have the combination of motor skills, reaction time, concentration and "mutli-tasking" abilities it takes to operate a lethal weapon safely.

@@Boogly83 No one can truly multi-task. The human brain can only focus on one task at a time. That's why I say "multi-tasking" as you are just switching your focus from one task to the next. Because of this, its no wonder about 1 in 88 people are either killed or seriously injured by a car at some point.
It's not merely about having the skills to drive, but the skills to drive almost perfectly. The consequences are uniquely high for the typical margin of error, and confounding variables like emotion and health can impair driving ability at relative random.
It's unfortunate we live in a society where driving is more or less a necessity since public transportation only provides limited access. This is why self-driving cars are something the world needs.

@@mrvini1998 Okay, but 10-15 over puts you well above the "limit + 10%" rule for all but the slowest roads. Assume 25 MPH which is a school zone and typically the slowest you'll encounter on public roads. Your 10% rule says you can go 27.5 MPH. If you were going 10 over and following the "10% rule" then you'd be in a zone rated for 100 MPH !!!
The rule you're stating isn't correct. Either way folks, don't speed. Those limits were chosen not only for road conditions but visibility of turns and intersections. More thought went into determining those limits than any one of use would use at that moment driving down the road.

Don’t tailgate to begin with. If it didn’t run the very real risk of damaging my vehicle, I’d probably be brakechecking so many people every day for being like, two feet behind me.
-If you see hazard lights...- Don't tailgate!
If you see a lizard lights... Don't alligator
-If you see hazard lights...- do -n't- tailgate.
Exactly hazard lights make no difference.

REPORTED
Yup reported
I remember seeing a manhole cover that was partially off of the manhole. I pulled over, stopped, turned on my Hazards and started walking towards it (side street with parking on both sides so plenty of room and little traffic). The edge of the manhole was about 12" (~30cm) on my side of the centerline. One guy slowed down when he saw my car with the Hazards flashing and when I signaled him to stop he did so, and when the oncoming car coming from the other direction passed he went over to that side of the road to safely pass the hazard.
Then came the idiot! Ignored my car's hazards, caused me to take 3 or 4 quick steps towards the curb, gave me the middle finger salute as he sped up.... The manhole cover flipped a bit damaging the bottom of his radiator and oil pan (judging by the colors of what liquids were leaking onto the road!!) and when his drivers side front tire hit the far side of the manhole it popped with a very loud bang!!!
The guy got out of his car with an angry & astonished look on his face, turn to glare at me... I just looked him in the eye and shrugged, walked over to where the cover now rested and then pushed it back so it properly was on the manhole, walked back to my car and drove off! All this time he had a WTF!!! look on his face and neither of us said a word to each other!
This was about 15 years before cell phones were even around, and a number of decades before they became common. Don't know how long it was before he got help, and truthfully, I don't care!!!
The legend says he still lingers around the manhole, wailing every time someone slows down near it.

It is amazing how much people insist on ignoring a warning. My latest was a deer hit. The deer had ran into the side of a ladies car. The deer's hind quarters had been disabled by the impact, and was in the road unable to move. The lady who's car it had ran into was standing by the road's edge in shock. She kept waking back out on the road, and I would escort her back off because of traffic. I was wanting to pull the deer off the road, but flagging oncoming traffic and keeping the lady off the road prevented me from doing it. Two different oncoming cars ran right over the deer, with the second one finally killing it. The second car had a little surprise though. Half of the deer must of gotten stuck in the undercarriage of his car, because only half the deer remained on the road. A buddy of mine works for the Department of Roads, and he was sent out to pick it up, but only found the half left where I had dragged to to the edge of the road. He drove a couple of miles down the road looking for the rest of it, but never found it. I bet that was a nice mess.
I've started using my car to block the danger (if it's something more serious then some debris in the road) at this point especially if it's and injured animal or large items (like the strangest one was a small fridge in the road)
Cops never seem to care so I think I'm fine
Plus it's better then seeing someone hit something and kill it or themselves because they wanna ignore hazards
As a Truck driver I haul a lot of man hole covers. If you know what I mean 😏. Though you were talking about women.
Always drive extremely close to vehicles in front of you, also when approaching a red light, speed all the way to it then slam on the brakes just inches away from the person in front of you, make sure you’re phone is attached to the dash with tiktok on and keep your music as loud as you can get it, and don’t forget to keep a vape/cigarette in one hand and a slurpie/energy drink in the other hand, these are what keeps our roads safe
I have this video saved and whenever I need to feel smug satisfaction. I come watch it.
If you're considering whether to be a courteous driver or a tailgater, don't choose the ladder.

Regular Guy yeah... We happen to be watching the same videos bro
then just speed it up, fucking soccer mom
Lmao. It was so unlikely that the ladder would actually hit that car specifically, and yet it was perfectly aligned with their wheel. Karma is real
its ALWAYS a shitbox with fogged up headlights too
looking at the front of that car it's pretty clear this isn't the first time their tailgating has turned into a problem for them.
Not a straight panel on it
So true
It’s a Focus. The body panels are so thin a paper airplane would dent it!
People like this don'thave any capacity to learn.
Was thinking the same thing.
The already existing dent on his hood say he's a train wreck behind the wheel
How do I get to heaven? Will my good deeds be measured against my bad deeds? Do I need to be a good person to go to heaven? How do I know if I'm good enough?
Well the bible says no man is good, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. So how do we get to heaven? Answer: By believing on Jesus Christ who took the punishment for our sin on the cross. There are no amount of good works we can do to achieve salvation because salvation is a free gift of God. We need to humble ourselves, realize we are sinners and that we need a savior.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave his only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
@@brotherdj777 No one cares.
@@GentleBones1 When people say that what they really mean is "I don't care and you are entitled to my opinion". Guess what, no one cares about you either.
@@WilsonTexasRager No one cares 😊
@@GentleBones1 You care enough to keep responding that you don't care.
the guy in front of him just went right over the ladder😭
Chances are that by now the person driving that car has seen this video, I hope they learned their lesson
All 7.1k that disliked must all be senseless tail sniffers.
Or perhaps people who noticed he wasn't actually tailgating. That the gap closed when the guy hit his brakes.
@@FreedomTalkMedia If you cant react fast enough just like the driver, say responding to him braking, your tailgating.
@@FreedomTalkMedia people should also notice the rule of 3 seconds between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. As you can see the driver is no more than one second behind him which makes it almost impossible to react to a situation, such as this one.
@@dantheman3421 Again, the distance closed when the brakes were hit by the driver in front. That's what the distance is for. They weren't following at that distance.
@@FreedomTalkMedia You must be watching a completely different video than the rest of us. He is clearly tailgating. Again, a senseless tail sniffer.
Judging by the front of their car, this is not the first ladder they’ve climbed. Much success.
When I see cars with body damage I stay away lol
576575s you can't at my highschool 9/10 have damage and they actually try to hit some of the cars that don't like mine. I'm not like richer than them I drive a trailblazer, they just trashed their car and don't like other people having nicer ones. I've seen people legitimately push people in traffic.
*+miguel ornelas* - If you climb ladders with your car you're gonna have a bungled up front.
Much success! Very niiice!
Giuliana Lucchesi loL nice one
It always baffles me how people will tailgate you as if you're supposed to magically speed through the 27 other cars directly in front of you in that lane that are all going the same speed in rush hour traffic.
This made my day. Thank you!
But... The line at the end was incorrect: Not, "if you see hazard lights, don't tailgate." The ONLY thing needed to say is, "DON'T tailgate." This is only ONE good example of why it's idiotic to tailgate.
Props to the black truck that launched the ladder knowing it would land in the next lane, knowing the buick would ride over, and knowing to aim it perfectly so it hit the tailgater’s wheel.
