[Dash Cam Thread] Moments of W-T-F!?

Thought I'd start a thread to share my W-T-F moments captured on my dash cam. Please post your experiences too, it'd be great to see what's been caught.

Camera Used: G1W-C

Use this format when posting:
Date
Intersection/Highway
City, State
Brief Description

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

9/11/14
Intersection of 880 and Brokaw
San Jose, CA
3-lane highway, cut off by Lexus not paying attention. Dumb broad not acknowledging she was at fault. Full monologue available on the video description

I love these dash cam threads! California ones seem to be the best though as you seem to end up with some very bizarre drivers out there.

I hope I never get one of these to show...at least none involving me. I just ordered my cam two nights ago! Front and rear!

You road raging bro. I would be pissed too but going the extra mile to honk/harass her is unnecessary.

Although I feel it's justified in your case, both you guys are now at fault for being bad drivers.

Serious? You sayin you wouldn't peep a word if you both were side by side, stopped at the following light?

Someone completely cuts you off, you don't flash your lights or honk? You got some damned good tolerance to bite your tongue, "bro".

I used to be one of those guys that would act on situations like that but eventually I learned through experience it's better to just take the higher road and let idiots kill them self off. You never know what kind of person is in that vehicle and you never know what the outcome may be once you provoke them.

We have enough things on our hands in our lives these days. No need to be bothering ourselves with trivial situations like this. Focus on the positives, the things we are grateful for and live a fuller more meaning life.

Don't mean to get all buddah on you but I care enough about you that I don't ever hope something happens to you because of our human ego.

1love "bro"

Yeah. You're right, I'm sorry. I admit, my blood was boiling after screaming at her at the light. I don't know anyone that could have kept it down after listening to her talk in such a condescending manner. I'll stop myself next time...post them for everyone's entertainment instead of escalating it.

Anyways, there are a few places that sell the G1W-C, word is some companies are selling knockoffs of these Chinese cams. Right?

I bought the cam from the same vendor that sold me a previous cam, "eStore" or something. Amazon even has these, and I want to say SpyTech (also has a hardwire kit). There a couple variants of the G1W, get the G1W-C model as the "C" denotes a built-in capacitor. Long description short, it's better and newer

On the 10W in Los Angeles.

Keep this CHP officer in mind:


Few minutes later, this Prius with no license plates blows past me...


Oh, look who's gunning their engine to catch up?


And justice is served.

I have more! Just gotta rip it off my facebook uploads and put it up on imgur and youtube. =/

This happened on 110N in Downtown LA. From my video description:

"I encountered this gem of humanity today after nearly an hour in traffic. I expressed my displeasure by tooting my wee little horn, and when he looked back, I gave him the bird with a smile on my face.

I guess he couldn't handle the consequences of his douchebaggery. Too bad my camera couldn't pick up his face, because when he opened that door, a couple of cars behind me started honking, and he probably decided he didn't want to fight several people at once."

I really need a dash cam. It was one of the first things on my list, but then I realized it doesn't make the car go faster.

Wow! Thats a true high-def camera, quality is amazing. Nice pickup

I absolutely hate it when people cut you off at the end of the merge like that. I mean, come on a**hole, get in line like everyone else.

That's a really good quality dashcam.

IMO, you went overboard... one honk was fine and I don't think stuff like that happens with an intent. They already freaked when you honked at them...

This happened to me last week. My gf was raging. LOL
