Buff out would be good though...
Shed a few tears, had her for 10 years no accidents, sold her to the bro and written off within a year

Let's be honest the kid couldn't even follow his hats instructions. Would you trust him in front of you?

I do want to hear the other side of the story. I also wish they would enforce left lane camping more so than speeding. The 300 drive was likely egging him on but, some people just don't know better. :/

I would put money that they were driving really slow on purpose and antagonizing the truck to the point he went bonkers. I can just see her egging on the boyfriend..."teach this jerk a lesson, babe"...right before they were wiped off the road.
The truck is still wrong but we all know what really happened here. We've all been behind one of those people that think they are going to show you what's what and make you pace behind them in the fast lane. The truck just did what we all wanted to do.
It's like this bitch I was behind the other day, my camera's SD card has been acting up and this is the only clip I have but they were sitting on the car in the right lane's fender until I changed lanes and then they sped up. Only to just drive next to the cars in the right lane. If I could have punted them in to a ditch I would have, there's just no need for it!

Exactly. Also, what camera is that you are running and how far can you read the plate numbers with it? From the youtube video it looks like maybe 30-40 feet it gets fuzzy but I'm sure the original footage is better.

I run a blackvue camera too. Very pleased with it. The rear camera is just as crisp as the front.

MAYBE they didn't do anything

last weekend I was driving home with my wife and we were about 3 minutes from home. the road is a single lane each way with a centre lane that's used for left turns. there's also medians once in awhile.

anyway, it was about 11:30 at night and I'm going about 68-70 kmph and it's a 60 kmph zone. there was no one behind me. I looked back in the rear view mirror and there was suddenly a truck hauling ass and it got to within a foot of my bumper. he then cut into the centre turning lane to try to blow by me but realized there's a median coming up and he kept following me a foot behind me.

so coming up you can either go straight or turn left onto the avenue which gets into 2 neighborhoods, one of which we live in, or go straight on a long straight road that was just opened and links into a small town or a major highway. so I'm thinking whether or not I should go straight or turn left. what if he follows me?

I figure that since he was in either a Silverado or Sierra (too dark, all I could see was headlines), I would not be able to outrun him in a BRZ, unless I take the roundabout to the highway and try to lose him there and call the cops.

I decide to turn left cause ans not risk that chance of him getting me on the straight. I turn and then get into the right lane (which is blocked off soon due to a repair of a manhole) and he drives by me going at least 120 kmph in a 60 kmph zone. then he tails a car up ahead the same way he tailed me that's in a right turning lane. as soon as the car turned the truck pulled back into the non turning lane and went straight. the truck then stopped on the road, and I turn right into our neighbourhood and pull over to watch him for a bit. he drives again for a few meters and stops, then pulls a u-turn, and now I'm thinking he might try to get me. so I drive into an alley and drives into our neighbourhood.

I park my car in my garage and then we take a walk around our neighbourhood hoping to find the truck to report.

the guy must have been either drunk or high or just the typical douche Alberta truck driver.

I wonder if I hadn't moved to the right lane if he would have rammed me, even though it's not a highway, but he was literally a foot away from me that piece of shit

I hope he hits a tree. fucker

The license plates are visible from a fair distance I think, I have pretty bad eyesight and my laptop has lower resolution than the video :/. Anyway, it's a Blackvue DR650GW 2 channel system, it survives the Texas heat and has been flawless up until the SD card started giving me issues.
