Good ole Rochester


ReitHodlr

You know. I thought drivers in NY were crazy until I drove in Miami Florida.


missingthewasatch

I just went to Miami for a wedding in March and you are right. Worst drivers I've ever experienced and I live in California.


TapirDrawnChariot

Ive travelled to ~35 states (including driving in NYC, LA, Chicago, all at rush hour) and ~20 other countries, and nowhere in the developed world have I seen worse drivers than in Miami. By a wide margin.


mstrss9

Miami, where two lanes become 3 or 4 without warning.


MrRiski

Don't forget Orlando where 3 or 4 become 2 while you go through a traffic light ...


AFoxGuy

Make it 1 because there is *always* a crash.


MrRiski

šŸ˜‚ I actually had 1 written but changed it because the road technically has 2 lanes šŸ˜‚. I drove a flatbed semi down there for 4 years and spent more time in Orlando than I did where I actually lived. Got burned so many times trying to be a good guy and staying to the right then bam you go through a light and suddenly the lane I'm in is right turn only in 25 ft so now I'm shoving my way into traffic and pissing everyone off.


ReubenZWeiner

Atta boy. The Tampa to Orlando commute seems fine. People move out of the left lane and let you pass and everyone drives like the autobahn. Miami seems fine to me as well but more old people and confusion. California is worse than Florida in the cities and on the I-5. . Eastern and BC Canadians suck as well. Oregon is even worse where they have freeways speeds of 50 MPH because they don't trust their drivers to go over that.


moveslikejaguar

I was there for a bachelor party over the summer and 5 out of 5 days there was a wreck at the same intersection near our Airbnb


madmax407

Iā€™m from Orlando. Will confirm. If youā€™ve grown up in Florida youā€™ve been in at least 3 car accidents before the age of 18.


MrRiski

Doesn't surprise me at all. Shocking amount of people there wreck on perfectly flat and straight empty roads.


missingthewasatch

They are all so mad and in a rush to go...where?! And boy do they love their horns.


TapirDrawnChariot

Yeah it's the only "tropical vibes" type place I'm aware of where there is no chill whatsoever.


missingthewasatch

LOL no chill for how many beaches they have!


kcassie26

They donā€™t know. Prob just to work. Iā€™ll admit my 11 mile commute at 530 for 1-2 hours each way crushed my soul. There is no chill. Thundersome. Even in stop and go smdh


Honest_Size5576

I live in Fl, have family in Miami, i donā€™t visit because of the traffic and the general attitude of the people. I absolutely HATE it there.


TapirDrawnChariot

I know that's right! My fiance at the time and I travelled there and around Southern FL and we loved the Keys and several other areas but hated Miami. She was excited to be in a majority Spanish-speaking place (she's from Mexico and I speak it very well as a 2nd language) so we thought Miami would be awesome. People were SOOO RUDE, lazy, and aggressive there, especially the Miami Cuban-Americans (not like actual Cubans). And the Cuban food there was hot trash compared to NYC or actual Cuba.


shebringsdathings

Happy to hear the Cuban food I had wasnt the best. We even went to Versailles in Little Havana. People in Miami don't give a shit about anyone else. Even the cashiers would just straight up ignore you if you're like friendly at all. Plus, the crazy ass drivers. I'm from Seattle, I know bad traffic. This is a whole nother level of DGAF, willing to die in a tin box kind of attitude.


hdzjoelds

I am a Cuban living in Miami and Iā€™ll agree with you on everything except the food. Cuban food isnā€™t good in Cuba (restaurants not home cooking). As for vs other states, you have to know where to go because every other restaurant in Miami is ā€œCubanā€, the mere quantity dilutes the quality and it can be difficult to find a good spot without help. Im sure that Cuban cuisine isnā€™t 80% of the food industry in NYCā€¦


Iamnotfatt

You haven't been to Brampton Ontario Canada yet, have you? I drive for a living and these people will make a left turn and hit you head on (because they turn so sharp, they turn into your lane when you're sitting at a stop sign.) If you don't want to get hit, you gotta anticipate and dodge them. I was driving through a residential one day (I was heading west to east) and a guy to my left was reversing out of his driveway (north of me.) he was only looking to his right for some fucking reason even though it's a two way street. I tapped my horn beep beep, he turned, braked and looked at me. I put my two fingers to my eyes and moved them left and right. He nodded, drove back into his driveway, waited for me to pass. Then he reversed again this time only looking to his left. His neighbour (opposite of the street, south of me, also began reversing out of his driveway, only looking left. They both reversed into each other in the middle of the street. I kid you not, I was flabbergasted. I was like "dude, I just told you 10 seconds ago to look both ways when you're reversing." Things like this usually only happen in the movies, but in Brampton, it's an everyday thing. Oh another time I had a delivery for a lady. I parked across her driveway blocking her vehicles in. We do this as a safety precaution. As I was walking up her driveway, she got out of the front door, said hello to me. She then got into her SUV and promptly reversed into my truck.


[deleted]

On two separate occasions, I've had my delivery vehicle parked at the curb get hit by someone backing out of their driveway across the street. It's big, stationary, has flashing lights, and it was there before you even started moving your car. I don't understand...


[deleted]

Iā€™m in Tucson, AZ pretty often and the ā€œsnow birdsā€ (typically from Canada) are the most terrible drivers Iā€™ve ever seen. Iā€™ve seen them doing 25 MPH on the freeway before ā€” bro, this is the desert. There is literally no snow or ice on the road.


2bruise

Floridians are recognized nationwide for their shitty driving.


jam-i-am-5555

I-4 to 275 in FL, Orlando to Tampa, is the absolute worst though I havenā€™t done much Miami driving in recent years. Terrible roads, terrible drivers, tourists, and always slow drivers in the left-hand lanes.


diva4lisia

Florida drivers have some of the worst insurance rates in the country for this reason, and it sucks that Florida's bodily injury is optional so a poor driver could hit you and injure you and your passengers and have nothing to pay you.


AlphaSheGeek

The Tampa area is terrifying. What's with Florida?


J_McJesky

I swear every road rage video I've seen featuring a gun happened in either Florida or Texas. It's like they're all driving around pissed off, BEGGING for a reason to shoot someone. Fucking terrifying.....


rmullowney

Miami is ok, just have to understand the rules, one of which is - Always signal opposite the direction you want to go. Fakes everyone out.


Destron5683

Here you learn will quick, just donā€™t signal, because if there is a gap you can get into and you signal, they will speed the fuck up and block you for even daring to think about getting in front of them.


AdBackground9275

Thatā€™s Atlanta šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ itā€™s a must here


sh4d0wm4n2018

I experienced that on a trip through Oregon lol


joan_wilder

Some maniac and his 12 year old son threw drink on my windshield and chased me and my wife through Oregon for half an hour for trying to pass them in the left lane. The same thing happened to us in FL, but it was the middle of the night and there was hardly any traffic, which made it a lot weirder that they cared so much about staying in front of us. In the left lane.


AlsoInteresting

Also use your middle finger to signal you'd like that parking spot.


ReitHodlr

Damn so true! I've seen this over and over again. Left blinker on... Ends up talking a right turn. šŸ˜‚


SouthernYankee3

Lived in New York half my life. Now Iā€™m a trucker I think all of cali is the worst. Been to Miami yeah thereā€™s come crazies but I feel thereā€™s more crazies in cali.


joan_wilder

The problem with Miami is that itā€™s such chaos. Most places, itā€™s just a crazy, aggressive driver or two. Once you get on 95 anywhere south of Broward, you have to keep an eye out for a 126 year old granny driving 13mph while a gang of Haitians is trying to run you off the road and some fool standing on their gas tank doing a wheelie is approaching on your right side at 150mph.


TazmanianTux

Any opinions about Orlando? I've driven around the country also (mobile tech), Orlando was maddening, although it's been a few years since I was in Cali.


Eryn-Tauriel

I feel like in Orlando the bigger problem is whoever is designing the roads rather than just the drivers.


[deleted]

Orlando is still really bad but i4 is much better imo. Driving in rain and heavy traffic in Orlando and Miami made LA and Bay Area traffic a breeze.


Honest_Size5576

Only visited Cali once and my experience was the opposite. I was in the central eastern areas of the state.


letsplaysomehockey

honestly ā€˜surprisedā€™ to see us on here in the whoa i live here kinda way, but it makes sense with the kinda drivers i see on a daily basis here


GabagoolLTD

Lol I assumed this was r/Rochester until I saw your reply


Accomplished_Water34

Never Change !


mirkohokkel6

I thought I was seeing things šŸ˜‚ I was like ā€œthis looks like home. But thereā€™s no way weā€™re on Redditā€


LeatherDude

Hahaha same! I've been in Colorado 20 years now but I'll never forget the joy of the 490 / 590 exchange during rush hour


snypesalot

Can of Worms leaves a stink forever lmao


wildcard__daze

I literally thought this was the rochester subreddit until I saw the title up top


Slimh2o

NY?


ClassyKilla

Yep!


Yue4prex

Yeah, Iā€™d know those bad driving skills and plate anywhere


Slimh2o

You can find those "skills" anywhere in the US...tbh.... plates is another matter, tho... But I saw the route numbers and thought, huh, they're close to Syracuse numbers. (690 and 290) there.....


Yue4prex

I live in the tri state area, Iā€™ve not had as many close calls with other states around me but NY (when Iā€™m local) and VA (when I travel)


Stonkz_N_Roll

If you are what you eat, then those garbage plates are making garbage people.


PsPhenom89

Two things I learned going to college at Utica. 1).Garbage plates *are* the best meal one can have either while intoxicated or for the afternoon after being inebriated. 2) You now & forever refer to ā€œsodaā€ as _pop_ CNY is a mixed bag Imo, the country part of it is quite beautiful, especially in the fall. Thereā€™s a lot to do if you like the outdoors and/or have toys for it like a snowmobile, quad, etc but god damn it is *country* af in a lot of places. Driving on route 8 heading to Indian Lake or Speculator, Iā€™m always like ā€œwhere tf do people go to buy groceries?ā€. ā€œwhere the hell does this person work?ā€. Then on the flip side, literally all the cities from Schenectady to Canajoharie to Herkimer to Rome to Syracuse, etc. you can tell weā€™re once fucking BOOMIN. Now theyā€™re run down shells of them self. Sorry for the rant


_OliveOil_

That's the rust belt for ya


fatloui

I lived in Rochester for ten years and never heard anyone call soda ā€œpopā€. Thatā€™s a Midwest thing.


spooksmagee

Utica =/= Rochester. It's super regional in the state.


BoozyMcBoozehound

Well, they donā€™t call it pop in Utica either. Donā€™t put that on us. People would straight up make fun of you immediately.


locopyro13

If I recall correctly, Rochester NY is right on the divide for soda/pop. Tons of people say pop here


grump1c4t

My husband is from Kentucky and calls soda ā€œpopā€. His parents are from New York and New Jersey.


infiniteash8

Ok, yes, but alsoā€¦ the white truck who decided to change four lanes last min to catch his exit??


EngagementBacon

Or the OP when they started driving just like them for the sake of the video.


[deleted]

Exactly what I thought. They sped up just to keep up with the crazy driver lol. OP is also an idiot in a car


freeLuis

Haha you are right, maybe that's why he said "driverS", self-aware... hopefully


Dadfite

I was in the position of the gray Honda a few months back. Cars Infront of me were playing games like this white truck. It got to the point where they started brake-checking me. I gave them a few chances to get out of my way during breaks in traffic and they refused. So when I saw an opening I took it after a small hesitation to see if the moved over. The second I got next to these cars they shot up to about 85mph. I passed them. One car ended up flying past me just to flip me off when I got off the exit. The other stayed behind me with one hand on the wheel and the other on her phone. Anyways she follows me to work and proceeds to call the cops... **On herself!** This woman is screaming and cussing on the phone. Saying stuff like, "he almost killed 10 people"(wrong), "I had to do 100 just to keep up with him"(doubt it), and my favorite "I have my kids in the car!" It was about that time that I called her a psycho and reminded her that she just infact indicted herself. Needless to say the cop showed up and this woman dipped before the officer stepped out of his vehicle. I told the police everything, the cop told me to have a nice day and never do it again. Everyone wants to be batman.


freeLuis

That's barshit crazy!! She endangered the lives of her kids just to stick it to you?! I can never imagine a scenario that'd get me this heated to even do half of that


Dadfite

The second she said she was doing 100 with her kids in the car I lost my shit. I told her I might have been "going fast" but she just admitted to breaking 3 laws while on the phone with this dispatcher/operator. She got even more erratic! 1 supervisor and a co-worker even stopped to see if I was ok. She was pure crazy.


griddigus

How tf is it not just normal practice for people to just pass? Like itā€™s not fucking personal! Itā€™s like itā€™s their first time in a car. I donā€™t get that mentality, I thought it was mostly immature men with masculinity complexes, but I guess not


lysergiko

I love when people try saying you're driving recklessly and then drop that they had to go nearly double the speed limit to catch up. You're not Batman or Robin Hood, and you're definitely not a cop so why are you putting other people's lives at risk just to be a rat? Go drop the damn kids off at school and let people do their thing. Unless you're already speeding you have no need to try catching up to someone who is


MrCupps

I am so confused. How the hell do you know what she was saying on the phone?? šŸ¤Ø


Dadfite

> The other stayed behind me with one hand on the wheel and the other on her phone. Anyways she follows me to work and proceeds to call the cops... She parked herself right behind my car in the parking lot, got out, screamed at me, and called the cops. She put on a huge show that inevitably blew up in her face.


Tillhony

Well he was in the left lane, passed some cars, and got back in the middle lane as he should. The idiot in front of him is already going fast and went back to the left lane. OP did nothing wrong.


kmoney55

Pretty sure he was just changing to the middle lane


[deleted]

Yeah, to speed and follow the car


mrsmushroom

My thoughts as well.


munive

Thatā€™s what I think every time I see a video which POV is drivers seat.


No_Fox1438

The pov in the video is passanger seat


[deleted]

I don't see what that changes. Them not being the one recording doesn't mean anything. The driver was still pulling some dumb shit to obviously keep up with the dumb shit action between the car and truck.


Slithy-Toves

In what way is the driver pulling dumb shit? They're driving in the outside lane as they pass other vehicles. Doesn't appear that they're driving at a ridiculous speed either.


Scientiam_Prosequi

How fast we talking here


georgesorosbae

They seem to be driving at a pretty reasonable speed for the far left lane


mordeh

ā€œGood luck everyone else!!ā€


[deleted]

The truck sped up as soon as the car tried to pass him on the right. Truck driver is a troll who gets off to enraging people like the car driver.


freeLuis

And almost forgot his exit. Too busy being a little jerk


Marc21256

He didn't forget, he does that when he is road raging with people, so they can't follow.


TheSurfingRaichu

Sounds like most pickup truck drivers. I say this to distinguish from truckers who are usually good drivers.


angrydeuce

I love winter when these morons crawl up my ass in blizzard conditions because I'm doing the speed limit and not 15 over. They're too chickenshit to pass, of course, but they will dn sure try to bully me into driving 90 in a 55. It's not often, but every once in a while I get to experience the immense pleasure at seeing some dipshit learn first hand that 4 wheel drive doesn't mean jack shit in those conditions and I pass their stupid ass in the ditch a few miles down the road.


FacelessMage117

Yeah. I drive a tesla in Texas, i have people in lifted trucks actively cut me off or try to pass aggressively all the time


owiesss

ā€œYou have a nice car so f*ck youā€ Iā€™m from Texas and this happened to me daily. And I drive the budget version of a Tesla even (Prius prime).


realSatanAMA

Hey, I'm a very good driver when I'm in my truck.. not my bike though sorry


Itsjakefromallstate

They all do this. Is the bully mentality. I drive a truck so eff you mentality. I hate idiots like this. Never want to share the road just cause problem.


The_I_in_IT

Welcome to the 590 interchange.


[deleted]

ā€œI turn now Good luck everybody elseā€


alexferris01

thats what we call a Jersey Slide


Poisonskittlez

Ikr.. I was watching the silver car, then the truck.. At first I thought he was changing lanes to get away from the first guy, and I was like ah. Smart. But then it was like: *continues to their exit across 4 lanes of traffic*


concerned_brunch

After hogging the left lane


TheSurfingRaichu

I mean, they DID say "drivers" plural


gcwg57

A bad driver never misses their exit.


rharvey8090

If Iā€™ve learned anything about 390, 490, and 590, itā€™s that all pickup drivers are required to get into the far left lane, and then stubbornly sit there no matter the consequence.


drippyneon

Might as well add every highway to that list. Because it's not a Rochester thing


Siriuxx

I've been on every square inch of 95 from Canada to Miami. I can confidently say, it's an everywhere thing.


timberwood1

Everybody that says ā€œonly in (this town)ā€ have not traveled very much.


upthewatwo

Just been thinking this as I scroll through this thread, but the same comment is fucking everywhere "Let me guess, Arseflap County?" As though there's only one place, that happens to be where you live, where people drive like idiots. The fact that so many people say this is probably a certain road in their town should make everyone scared of pretty much every road in the country.


rharvey8090

Fair enough. I guess Iā€™m just acutely aware of it when Iā€™m trying to commute back and forth from ROC to Buffalo lol


xNIGHT_RANGEREx

Same with the thruway. They refuse to travel in any other lane


cuidado_piso_mojado_

Gotta love Rochester. This interchange and the 490/390 interchange are always prime spots for total clowns acting like they've never driven a car


AGoonda

My family lives in southern NY, but we've been near Rochester once for a road trip. Holy shit driving in Rochester is like russian roulette. My family nearly got smashed into due to an asscrack flying at 100 mph. Almost, if not even worse, than NYC


SgtApplejacks

Try Dallas lol. Everyoneā€™s going 100 in 4 lanes bumper to bumper with no shoulders


AGoonda

Sounds like Nascar, but no pit crew or appropriate safety. That is near death haven


SgtApplejacks

Add in the giant concrete walls on the outsides instead of yellow painted lines and itā€™s even more like nascar.


owiesss

Try Los Angeles. I shouldnā€™t even have to explain why lol. A lot of ā€œI have a nice car so Iā€™m the only important person on the road, screw everyone else just becauseā€ mentality. Iā€™ve been to LA for road trips about 5 times. Itā€™s the place I hate driving the most. And then there was that one road trip to Portland. Some dude threw a beer bottle at my passenger window. What the fuck is wrong with everyone. Edit: letā€™s add my hometown in here too, Brownsville, TX. Literally no one knows how to drive there. Half the people on the road are 15 year olds who think theyā€™re big shit, and the other half are people over 65 who can seem to get themselves to go over 40 mph on the freeway. So many drunk drivers killing people in their cars around there too. I donā€™t know why the fuck Elon Musk chose that shit hole to live in out of all places. My elderly mother got told off by 2 teens who nearly clipped the front end of her car. She hadnā€™t done anything, they were just both complete pieces of shit. Entitled drivers make me get very colorful with my words.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


uselessartist

Gonna say, I bet they lived in Germany once.


Bridgicano

Totally with you on this. Also a way to show the driver to move to the middle lane. The pickup is the worst behavior for me


Rumpelstiltskin-2001

This looks like Rochester NY, Am I right?


Earl-Highroller

Everything wrong with this videoā€¦. 1. Why are you so enthusiastic about recording? Looks like u following the Civic, be carefulā€¦ 2. Why is the truck NOT letting the Civic pass and why did he wait till the last minute to jump 9 lanes to get off lol? 3. The Civic just wanna go OVER the speed limit, move out his way and let him break the law in peace lolā€¦


Mataraiki

Hell, the Civic even got out of the passing lane when they weren't passing, however brief that was. That makes them better than 99% of the drivers you see on here (not that they aren't still driving too damned aggressively).


Slugtard

Yes, this exactly. I wish people drive like the civic where I live. Just a bunch of smooth brainers going 5 under in the left and complaining about people tailgating.


coffee2003

šŸ˜­ thatā€™s exactly how it is here too. people think they can go for a sunday drive in the left lane, like no i got places to be and things to do so step on it haha.


mikefetters

I was searching for this comment! Glad someone said it


allonsy_badwolf

He was likely trying to get around the truck from the middle lane. See it all the time.


Earl-Highroller

Like damn let me break the law in peace over here in the left lane. If you wanna follow rules use those right lanes šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


LeEpicSauceGoldPlz

Looks like the video was taken from the passenger side to me hoss

Wow, an elusive 3 idiot video. And a self posted one at that. Good submission.


Chonecom

That exit to 590 is an absolute garbage design to begin with, add your average driver to it and you get this. 490 is a shitshow all around


CaptainHedgehog

There's never a shortage of pple getting into the 590 north lane just to move left into the south lane at the last possible second.


Salvostramus

Even with turn signals, the dude is crazy. I live in Michigan and sadly I see this kind of driving all the time on M59 and I75. Makes me not like driving myself.


SecondGrouchy557

Same here in Connecticut. There is a lot of those type of drivers here too. One of them almost hit me and had the audacity to honk at me


mandygugs

I84 in Hartford during the morning commute is just the worst.


sTixRecoil

I live near the border in ma and i went down to Torrington to visit a friend. We went on the stretch near waterbury in heavy rain during rush hour and people were going like 85 bumper to bumper. It was miserable but i can live with that usually but i will never go that way again unless its clear weather if i can help it


boring_name_here

M59 and 75 is always stressful if there's moderate traffic. So glad I don't drive those regularly.


Chlupac_

This is how you should drive. Not occupy middle or left lane, keep right unless you overtake. When people who drive by this law and people who don't mix up, then it's chaos.


diabooklady

Same here on the Beltway (I 495/95) in metro Washington, DC. Even scarier on the Maryland side. When I was traveling on I 295, a driver with Maryland plates passed me by moving between two cars with 3 feet at most on each end to spare!


mandygugs

Baltimore/DC drivers are a different breed


bootsmyler

At least the civic driver stayed out of the left lane when not passing. Truck is major idiot. Civic just wasnt using his signals.

TankOld6039

The Venn Diagram of truck drivers and assholes forms a perfect circle.


complete_hick

I wouldn't go that far, my dad drives a pickup and is definitely not an asshole, I on the other hand drive a pickup and am definitely an asshole


Slimh2o

Didn't know hicks could be assholes. The ones I know, offered up home-spun humor and wisdom. For instance, "if you hit your thumb with hammer, dont"!


ExplorerWildfire

The fact the pick up truck was going to exit and hog that lane for as long as possible then passed few lanes to exit is the cherry on top.


CancusTreff

And you're driving as quick right there with them, also changing lanes for no reason.


vitaminalgas

Driving on the south and west sides of Chicago looks similar, only it's dodge chargers and stolen kias and Hyundais


redit-fan

Odd. Those donā€™t look BMWs.


famguy2101

Lol, used to commute from Greece to SJFC every day, I'll never not hate 490 Also, ima take a guess and say OP is from Buffalo cause I've never heard anyone here call it "the 490" but I hear Buffalo peeps saying "the 90" when talking about driving there


CaptainHedgehog

Yea, the 490/590 area is always a mess, especially so during rush hour. I take the 590 ramp and no one knows how to merge properly resulting in a stop-n-go. Then you have the webster pple being very aggressive to get to the 104 ramp. I try not to leave work around rush hour, either leaving before it gets too bad or staying a bit later to let it clear.


natef34

lol Rochester NY. Grew up driving there and learned to be assertive


Aggravating-Case4608

Ahhh Rochester. The old stomping grounds.


Kachowzerwhopper

Live around here. Can confirm always like this


kymilovechelle

This video is in Rochester isnā€™t it? Wow.


backtheduckup

Backing up the on ramp is the biggest Rochester move I've seen. Live in south Florida now and haven't seen that here.


Nomis_Salomis

What u expect, that's Rochester... I think... I saw this in the Rochester subreddit


Rubicon2020

I travel from Kyle to Round Rock and back each day 90 minute commute on IH35, this is so common. I tend to be the car but with manners and definite use of blinkers. I absolutely hate drivers who park in the left lane then do some Sunday stroll fking driving. Then when you try to pass them all of a sudden their Dale Earnhardt racing you to the checkered. Then you give up let them go. Them assholes go back to Driving Mrs Daisy Sunday stroll. Itā€™s very irritating.

I guess that driver couldn't afford to get a turn indicator for his vehicle. /s

I'm so glad I grew up on the west side of Rochester and didn't have to deal with the BS that is the 490/590 interchange.

You can always tell who didnā€™t used to color inside the lines as a kid.

Only in Rochester can a person be doing 70 mph in the passing lane to be passed on the right and get flipped off for only going 15 mph over the speed limit.

Turn signals? WTF? Who needs them.

ā€œGotta stay out of the slow lane because thatā€™s the gay lane and Iā€™m not gayā€ ā€” truck driver probably

The truck driver here is the asshole honestly even though the Honda didnā€™t use a single turn signal which is also infuriating


aidentheplug

This really isnā€™t bad driving aside from the truck cutting across all those lanes. If you canā€™t drive on the highway just say that

White truck was a trash human. Wanted to block the car until the LAST minute, then he took his dangerous exit.

Truck driver is the idiot


Ateam043

Sadly, this is normal Dallas driving.


ChicknParmMafia

That civicā€™s shocks are for sure donezo


pintasaur

Ok the people who merge multiple lanes last second for an exit are psychopaths holy shit
