AU road rage dashcam vid

This one has gone viral here in AU, happened yesterday apparently ... guy must have been loaded up on gear or something what a nutjob!!

I was on the fence about buying a dash cam but this as well as the 'camry' thread in general discussion has confirmed it for me..

btw it's from the worst TV show ever made, 'Today Tonight'.

Scary stuff! Pretty impressive that he punched through the windshield like he did.


Also, the Templars logo on his "Ute' (lol, I like that word), is that a gang? Or a secret society that the Assassins have been trying to eliminate for many years?

Apparently it's a MMA street wear brand or something.

Ute is short for utility, aka pick up truck.

That guy actually had a South African accent, lol.

Funny thought with this though....the dude that jumps out of the truck kind of reminds me of the brutes in Saints Row 3. minus some car flipping.

Ahh here comes the gun debate again... flip side is that if a guy that crazy was packing it would have been a much shorter video.

That's an insane video.

My favorite quotes:
000 operator "all i can tell you is to drive to the police station"

Victim "he's laying in the road now"
000 operator "well you have to go back."
Victim "I'm not going back!"

Mental note: buy dash cam, and never go to Oz.

I dont know, I think if it was me I'd have flipped the script. Thats just my nature in a situation like that.

He'd find himself being chased, rear ended, and be the one fleeing if I didnt immobilize his vehicle first.

I'd be slamming the brakes as he ensued chase, not just him, and let the fun begin. This victim and ran ran ran, when he should have swung it around and messed back with the perp.

Clearly not an alpha male

Just decided on my next mod. Dashcam!
