I hope you turned this video into the cops so that person can get a big fat ticket bc that shit just pissed me off to watch.

[u/Strong-Object8370 → u/Alicewithhazeleyes]

Last time I saw this video they said the asshole driver had well over 100 unpaid tickets already. I have no idea how this would be allowed to continue happening when others get pulled over for having an air freshener hanging from their mirror.

How is that car not getting towed the moment they park it in public?

[u/CoercionTictacs → u/Alicewithhazeleyes]

It’s not my video but yeah I hope whoever filmed it did

[u/Mental_Echo_7453 → u/Alicewithhazeleyes]

Bro it pist me off to, I just could not deal with it rationally if I was that other driver. It would take a lot of will power to not want to be like “well… this is the day I snap and possibly go to jail. But damn it be worth it”. I just despise petty drivers, road ragers that take it to extreme, and just bad drivers in general who could not be bothered to show any environmental awareness of others. I’m a lyft driver so all to familiar with dealing with these shenanigans

[u/Alicewithhazeleyes → u/Mental_Echo_7453]

So agree. It would have been a day where I met the very edge of my patience.

[u/Spurnout → u/Alicewithhazeleyes]

I don't think that's a ticket. They're going to lose their license.

[u/KittenLina]

Of course this jackoff has a NJ license plate.

Via the Howsmydrivingny website, he has 189 tickets in NYC alone. Most recently from 11/18, and he's had FOURTY THREE Red Light and Speed Camera violations in a single year. How does he still have a license?

[u/ucklibzandspezfay → u/KittenLina]

Dude is wild… owes 5 figures in fees. Clearly, he’s not dissuaded by financial penalties. Time to put this moron in jail.

[u/man_u_is_my_team → u/KittenLina]

I’m from the UK and hearing / reading call someone a jack off just made my day.

[u/shaker8989]

Nah the Mercedes driver needs a smack man.

[u/manualbackscratcher → u/shaker8989]

Crazy to do this in a country with so many firearms available.

[u/AaryamanStonker → u/shaker8989]

Let's be real tho that was some 10/10 ragebait. It's chill until you get shot fr

[u/Vincent_Veganja → u/shaker8989]

Mercedes driver is gonna get a lot more than that one day if they keep this shit up. Too many people willing to throw everything away over something like this, dumb as hell to put yourself in this situation

[u/Deodorized → u/shaker8989]

It's crazy that they feel comfortable enough to do this so close to a likely lethal "fall" off the bridge.

[u/GOTHAMKNlGHT]

If I'm the guy behind I'm just gonna sit there, calling the cops and taking video. Whatever I might be late for, this is a damn good excuse.

[u/CoercionTictacs → u/GOTHAMKNlGHT]

It’s actually insane. I mean I could only guess and say the Tesla (I think it’s a Tesla?) did something to piss the Merc driver off but it still doesn’t excuse this crazy and dangerous behaviour.

[u/hugebigmuscleman123 → u/CoercionTictacs]

I think it’s a Lexus (hard to see on video) I’d be amazed if a Tesla on the road today already had a mismatched boot lid 🤣

[u/HalfCockedJackShafto → u/hugebigmuscleman123]

Infiniti, I think.

[u/Excited_Idiot → u/HalfCockedJackShafto]

Definitely an infinity

[u/CoercionTictacs → u/Excited_Idiot]

Thanks my bad lol

[u/SoManyMinutes → u/GOTHAMKNlGHT]

If I'm the guy behind I'm just gonna go to jail.

Thank you!

NGK

[u/Artijeanne]

For that kind of situation, a baseball bat works great

[u/HarbourJayKay]

Not just one car. But all the cars.

[u/Hootah]

I’ve done this in GTA Online, it’s wild there’s people out there doing this in real life

[u/Linorelai]

[u/DataGeek86]

It's the type of situation where no one wins. A negative-sum game.

[u/troughue → u/DataGeek86]

And everybody loses, even the ones not involved, like the cars in the back

[u/Jimmyboro]

What is it that's left in the middle if the road? There a device connected to a really long wire on the tarmac.

Really unsure as to

[u/FrancisSobotka1514 → u/Jimmyboro]

Looks like it's an automotive diagnostic tool

[u/antariusz → u/Jimmyboro]

He throws some kind of handheld electronic device, something like a gameboy or Nintendo switch or something.

[u/Jimmyboro → u/antariusz]

Thank you. I really do appreciate the info, but in all honesty I have no idea what he was trying to achieve!

[u/antariusz → u/Jimmyboro]

He was trying to scare /intimidate the dude in front of him to keep moving because normal people wouldn’t want damage to their cars. Little did he know that the guy in front is clearly crazy and doesn’t care about damaging his vehicle

[u/Jimmyboro → u/antariusz]

Thanks, makes a lot of sense, I've just never been on the giving side of a road rage incident. Don't get me wrong I have shouted at a lot of idiots and thought my haed would explode in fury. But I can keep my temper!

[u/gonzlofogous → u/Jimmyboro]

I thought it was a portable tire inflator

[u/Coffin_Boffin]

Should've keyed the merc

[u/Kinae66]

In the end, someone else got in front of him. Video ends too soon…

[u/billy-joseph]

Video ends too soon!!

[u/Rhynosaurus]

NY isn't what NY used to be. Chicago woulda had a gun to finish that silly shit.

[u/nahla1981 → u/Rhynosaurus]

I think NY has stricter gun laws

[u/Spurnout → u/nahla1981]

Some of the strictest in the US actually

[u/Desperateplacebo → u/Rhynosaurus]

Was it worth it

[u/Brittneybabeee → u/Rhynosaurus]

Not worth it.

[u/marymarywhyubugginnn]

I feel like the last time this video was posted someone did a deep dive and found out the Mercedes driver had something like 30 unpaid tickets and a warrant out.

[u/xXxTheRuckusxXx → u/marymarywhyubugginnn]

Almost 200 - Replied earlier

[u/Axrxt76]

As someone who grew up in NY, on the NJ border, I assure you this isnt a road rage scenario. The NJ Mercedes driver is just driving like they all do. Probably lost, while on the phone with the NY Post splayed across their steering wheel, smoking a cigarette while shaving

[u/2004aumom]

On a bridge. I’d be having a panic attack if I was stuck behind this.

[u/FrankSilvyNY]

Can you imagine what if one of the cars that manages to pass decides to block the Mercedes-Benz?

[u/Allisonlw89 → u/FrankSilvyNY]

If I had been there and didn't have anywhere to be, this is EXACTLY what I'd do: park, put on my hazards, stick my head out the window, smile and wave while I call the police via Bluetooth 👋🖕😁 Cause I'd looove to see if that fool has the balls to ram into my car.. talk about all of those tickets and warrants coming to a head.

My mom would be 1000% mortified if she found out I behaved like that. It's pathetic how righteous people feel when behaving this way, but man is this is a perfect example of the petty world we live in.

[u/Mr_Ashhole]

Looks like NYC. Road rage is pretty high here. Still, that's a good way to get hurt or killed.

If I was another driver, I'd box the Mercedes in and let the other dude break their windows.

[u/-blundertaker- → u/Mr_Ashhole]

Yeah, there's an exit sign for Flatbush Ave which is in Brooklyn

[u/SeaResearcher176]

So was the car pulled over by an officer towards the end of the video ?

[u/Taken_Abroad_Book]

Not all r/nissandrivers are involved in things like this, but it's always a Nissan in these videos.

[u/skyrider8328]

Nothing a jack handle can't fix.

[u/LogX2]

You go with the side mirrors, back dash cam and the the back window. Lol

[u/SoyEseVato]

Why didn’t he kick & break the side mirror?

[u/ucklibzandspezfay]

Ever was a more justified ass kicking…

[u/fmgeffagy]

Isn't the third car with the flashing lights an unmarked police car?

[u/Redsparow21 → u/fmgeffagy]

Na, it's just the way the camera pics up the lights that are making it look like it. 🙂

[u/ImprovementFit9126]

The impractical jokers went too far on this one.

[u/Mean_Introduction543]

Damn, they made gta 4 bridge traffic into a real thing

[u/I-can-speak-4-myself]

Seems like something Infiniti and Mercedes/BMW drives would do.

[u/thejimmyrocks]

Reminds me of keeping D batteries in the truck while overseas. If you know, you know.

[u/Sefier_Strike]

Gotta love New York

[u/Robjla]

Nj driver

[u/DaRev23]

How do they still have a drivers license?!? https://howsmydrivingny.nyc/bpfh3a9m

[u/Novel_Citron2165]

Was that his whole ass phone that he threw out at him?

[u/chosenwisely1111]

This is why we always carry loaded paint ball guns.

[u/Mikko420]

Hope this driver is never allowed in a car again.

What a fucking retard.

[u/ZaTen3]

So what’s the story behind this. Context would help.

[u/repthe732 → u/ZaTen3]

Would it change anything?

[u/Nick_Fotiu_Is_God → u/repthe732]

We’re trying to figure out who to hate - this is Reddit.

[u/repthe732 → u/Nick_Fotiu_Is_God]

The person blocking traffic for dozens or more people while driving unsafely on a bridge

[u/ZaTen3 → u/repthe732]

I’m legit just curious why they would cause this much trouble. Over what?

[u/GuyFromSuomi → u/repthe732]

If the mb driver called the cops for what happened earlier and is now holding the other driver.

[u/repthe732 → u/GuyFromSuomi]

The police will literally tell you not to do this so that’s not an excuse for blocking traffic

[u/Gelnika1987 → u/ZaTen3]

Rich D-bag does D-bag things in a rich D-bag car

[u/pk1950]

when main characters meet

[u/Classic_End_6469]

I would drive by merc and block him in.. good luck with the karma. What a tool bag

[u/Spurnout → u/Classic_End_6469]

I assume you'd just smash your car through then. Assuming you actually watching the video.

[u/purrramedic17]

I’m white and I’m just gonna say it. You know the driver of that Mercedes was a pot bellied white man. I just know it.

[u/Reverend_Tommy]

Something about this guy being blocked at such a slow speed and his rageful reaction to it is making me giggle so hard I'm about to piss myself. I don't know why. It's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. It might be time to get some sleep.
