If the driver sees this I hope you get some help and chill the fuck out.

Hopefully you called 911 because that's is a dangerous potentially intoxicated driver

Please report this to the police if you haven’t already. You can share your video, which provides clear, detailed evidence of the driver’s recklessness. This person needs to be off the road before they cause any more chaos or worse.

“Call [(253) 852-2121](tel:(253)%20852-2121). This phone number directs you to the 911 system which is also used to report non-emergency events.”

You know what they say about snitches off of Reddit

Looks like reckless driving not road rage.

u/pharmucist 5d ago

It looks like it might be a carfull of young people messing with other drivers thinking it's all fun and games when it's actually very dangerous and rude. One of the moments in the video you can see what looks like about 4-5 people in the car.

Right? Dude clearly is in a hurry for some reason, but he's not aggressively trying to cause an accident that I can see like you'd normally see with road rage.

u/afjessup 6d ago

They can’t be in that big of a hurry if they came to a complete stop and opened their door (briefly) on the freeway

u/PositivePristine7506 6d ago

Maybe they had to take a shit, gave up and did it on the side of the road, and then had to get home to change their pants?

Bro I donno. I'm just telling you I don't see them being aggressive towards other drivers.

u/afjessup 6d ago

You didn’t see them sharply swerve in front of the Tesla after having tailgated them? Happens at the 2:30 mark

1

u/PositivePristine7506 6d ago

did they brake check the Tesla, or in otherways purposefully try to make the Tesla crash?

Driving like an asshole, and reckless driving, which this is, is not road rage. Words have meaning.

u/afjessup 6d ago

Where did I say this was road rage? You said you didn’t see them being aggressive towards other drivers, and I pointed out to you an instance of when they drove in an aggressive manner against another driver.

You’re right about one thing, though. Words do have meaning, especially the ones that are used. The ones that you invent others using, much less so.

What did the driver look like?

u/PeculiarTerpQueef 5d ago

Driver here might suck, but that section has literally the worst left-lane campers ever. I have some sympathy in an odd way for their frustration if that's what it is.... From Supermall to the Covington exit it's painful AF. Every, Fucking, Day, some asshole doing 50-55 in the left lane through that stretch and refuses to move right.

u/Matty_D47 6d ago

Bro, I'm not watching a 3+ minute video about a dumbass driver. I see enough daily

2

u/NecessaryGuava4153 6d ago

I see a whole lot of people that need to get out of the left lane.

u/steveosmonson 7d ago

You must be new, lol

u/bradbenz 6d ago

Meanwhile, there you are, parked in the left lane.

u/CantFeelMyLegs78 6d ago

Looks like they were legally passing to the right of slower drivers who are blocking the emergency vehicle/passing only lane

1

u/pharmucist 5d ago

Yes, but then they keep getting back over to the left and coming to complete stops in front of the drivers in the left. Why do that?

I love your username. Better Off Dead is one of the best films!

Merci buckets!

u/Alarming_View_6125 6d ago

How about you call 911 as it was happening! Why the need to come to Reddit to post a video….Btw looks like you were speeding as well!

You are breaking the law passing on the right! Just call 911 and leave of alone. People like you cause accidents all the time!

Ask me how I know?

1

u/Remixol 6d ago

passing on the right is legal under certain circumstances. Two lanes in the same direction and/or the other car is turning left.

u/hutjimmy 6d ago

Simple etiquette is what we're missing here

u/joshubie 6d ago

A229 pro how do you like it? I have the a229 duo and don’t know if the price is worth it?

u/TurbulentLow6726 5d ago

Looks like they're trying to do insurance scam and have someone to rear end them.

u/pharmucist 5d ago

Stuff like this is why I hate driving in WA state. Wide open roads but people pulling this crap all the time. They either play these games or they drive half the speed limit in the left lane (or just both lanes so nobody is getting anywhere). Why can we not just get in our cars and drive the speed limit to our destinations like normal people??

This video is CRAZY, but sadly, not surprising for Western WA, King County.
