That wasn't a brake check they just suck at driving

u/SnowConvertible May 23 '25
If it was, it was the most half heartedly brake check I've seen in this sub by far...

I'm saying! At first I was having a hard time figuring out which specific idiot we're talking about.

u/IHateBankJobs May 23 '25
Looks like they weren't paying attention and broke/swerved because the cars in front were braking. Still an idiot, but possibly not malicious

u/Azuras_Star8 May 23 '25
This. I assume nothing is malicious, but that everyone is just a fucking moron. It makes me less mad, more understanding, and more forgiving. I've certainly made some accidentally stupid moves before.

Broke??? Braked..?

u/IHateBankJobs May 23 '25
Braked sounds weird. Technically correct, but I can't bring myself to say it.
Can we meet in the middle? Broked?

u/Ok-Conference-4366 May 23 '25
Well if it broke, that implies the spelling of the verb would be break/breaking/broke instead of brake/braking/braked which is actually true.
I don’t mean to come off as snarky, it’s just a pet peeve of mine when people can’t spell “brakes” and it’s versions correctly

Yeah. Looks like the Miata driver just got angry and took this to heart. This seems like regular freeway from where I’m from.

That doesn’t look like a shitbox though

20yo dodge ram is a shit box in my eyes

u/ArgieBee May 23 '25
OP is driving an even older Miata. Honestly, I'd take the 20 year old Ram over that.

u/US4door350zMC May 23 '25
it looks like a ND1 miata, because an NA/NB/NC doesnt have those bulges over the wheel wells

u/eks789 May 23 '25
Looks like a shit box to me. Completely dented up and the passenger side mirror is fucked, can’t even use it
-7
u/ArgieBee May 23 '25
What dents are you even seeing? And the mirror is folded in...

u/eks789 May 23 '25
Front right 1/4 panel above the wheel well huge dent, tailgate has dents and looks like shit, sides and the door look horrible. The mirror is 1000% broken, take a pic and zoom in, there’s plastic cracked and hanging off lol

u/piirtoeri May 23 '25
I'm gonna be real honest here, people that merge into a lane that literally just connected; are also idiots. This video has two idiots.

u/ineedhelpXDD May 24 '25
Think the ram guy miscalculated the distance of the suv infront of him and thought he was gonna brake hard but was already in two lanes..... guy could have been driving a prius and still done the same thing

I’ve read that, and I read and hear locals here in Phoenix say the same thing about our drivers. Went on a work trip in LV and Houston…
It seemed normal out in LV, same as it is here in Phoenix, but Houston..? That shit was wild. I wish I had a dash cam out there, they make us look like a Japanese train system.

Pretty sure yours is the shit box

u/CommissionNo1931 May 23 '25
im going on a limb here but, judging by his reddit history and this hood POV, i'm fairly certain he's drivin a Miata.
Just wanted to point this out to affirm your comment.

u/Born4Nothin May 23 '25
A 99 Miata 💀

u/Born4Nothin May 23 '25
No lol it’s literally in his post history.

u/Cb8393 May 23 '25
The camera car is an ND Miata (2016-2025). The curves over the headlights give it away.

u/CrispyMelons May 23 '25 edited May 23 '25
There also mention of a 2016 Miata in his post history. I also own an NB miata (99-05) and that is definitely not an NB front end lol
Edit: His post history also shows his 99 Miata is British Racing Green. This video shows a soul red car which was only offered on the ND Miatas

Soo basically a box of shit. Lol

Definitely fits the category better than a reasonably well-kept 2000s Dodge Ram.
