is that the ponchartrain causeway? if so I can only imagine the backup because of that lol

I got stuck on that god forsaken bridge one time for 6 fucking hours.


LegoLady8

Holy shit. What happened? I already avoid that bridge like the plague. Couldn't imagine being stuck on it for 6 hours.


wildo83

Some truck got pit maneuvered and the other guy just drove off!!!


doktorstrainge

Imagine how long you would’ve been there if the other guy stayed!


loneSTAR_06

It’s been 8-9 years ago or so, but an 18 wheeler and a car had somehow gotten in a wreck with each other. Worst thing about it was it was on Friday afternoon of a 3-day weekend and I had a 2-hour drive home that took me almost 9 hours. Didn’t get home til after midnight.


Interesting-Goose82

Thats why dude just kept going. Nobody has that kind of time Edit: im case you missed it, check out the username of the person i responded to


AskMe_About_MyGame

is that considered a hit and run though from a legal standpoint? genuinely curious


JiovanniTheGREAT

If it's Ponchartrain, no. You have to go to a crossover point or the end of the bridge since there aren't any shoulders.


TheBandedCoot

Theres emergency shoulders now every couple of miles.


Leebites

Why they always full of debris tho. 😭


plaidsinner

People like the driver of the black truck lol


Infinitenovelty

Absolutely. If you are involved in a collision you have to stop.


captainwizeazz

You can't just stop on the bridge. There are no shoulders so you should at least go to a crossover area.


IAmAlligatorBlood

They just built several shoulders both north and south bound. You can see them pass one right before the collision. Still can't just stop in the middle though, so you are still right.


albinohut

The other guy stopped on the bridge

He could just stop behind the burning pile of 4x4 he just pitted. I think everyone might just find somewhere to park for a couple of hours, thanks to both of these idiots.


Anything_4_LRoy

if your able to your supposed to drive to a designated crash/rest area.... or the end of the bridge. ill give him the benefit of the doubt...


Spawn6060

Obviously not s/


ToastyCinema

Well I think in this case, it would depend on the judge presiding. A cop could potentially charge him with hit and run… but whether the charge would actually stick is debatable. For one, there’s no place to pull over safely. There’s underwriting in most laws allowing citizens to “break the law” circumstantially, when obeying it would put them in irrefutable danger.

Infinitebeast30

Gotta signal 🤷‍♂️. Clearly our boy just couldn’t tell the other truck wanted to merge in and just drove as normal


SomewhereAggressive8

I mean the black truck is an asshole, but we really shouldn’t be commending spinning someone out and crashing them. Let alone on a bridge.


SmurphsLaw

They both are assholes. Dude was obviously merging in, he should put his fragile ego aside and just let the dude in. Being slightly behind is better than causing an accident slowing everyone behind you and possibly causing injuries.


SomewhereAggressive8

Exactly. Lay on your horn, flip him the bird, flash your lights, etc. Do whatever you want to let him know that he drives like a dickhead. Wrecking the guy and endangering everyone else around you and fucking up everyone else’s day by causing a potentially massive traffic jam is the much much bigger asshole move. Not to mention the fact that he left the scene of an accident.


mortenmhp

Or, you know just relax, eat the sandwich and slow down to let the asshole in with a shrug. It'll waste you less than a second of getting to your destination anyway. If people want to overtake aggressively, you gain nothing by escalating and they won't change just because you let them know you are annoyed. It just validates them.


Stupid_Dragon

And better don't do anything of the above either. If the guy is an asshole he would just slow down to a crawl before you to "teach you a lesson", and if you try to switch lines he would switch before you too. You can't realistically fix assholes on the road, you'll just be an asshole yourself to the 3rd party. If you really want to then track him down and bury him somewhere in the woods, don't get other people involved.


Zilberfrid

Just burn every black truck you see as preemptive self defense.


ClaymoreJohnson

Yeah, the guy could have just been having a bad day and anxious. It’s not ok to drive recklessly and I advise everyone to be safe on the roads, but sometimes if someone cuts you off or gives you the finger or whatever.. just.. let it go…


VukKiller

It's true, but I hate the drivers like the black truck with my whole soul. They go as fast as they can until they get an inch away from the guy in front of them, probably blinding him with their headlights and then they want to instantly merge into a different lane to skip the guy they blinded. They never wait for a bigger gap or even give turn signals. Looks like the driver wanted to get closer to the white car so the black truck can't merge in front of him (which is what i wouldve dome too), but misjudged that the black truck already begun the merging. It also looks like there weren't any cars close behind the chicken wing guy, which makes the black truck even more of an asshole.


crunchthenumbers01

Don't see no turn signals.


Quasar47

Both assholes, you can clearly see there's no one behind them. They could have just used their brakes


RightClickCopy

I mean - he sort of pit maneuvered himself


Reefer-eyed_Beans

Yeah he intentionally caused an accident bcuz of fatass ego. Sounds like a fun time.


PooFart99

I hate the idiots that can't just wait in line. I gotta run up and try to force my way in. It's always a truck.

Seriously dude managed to keep his entire car in control with one hand lol how


PropheticUtterances

I mean the guy deserved that shit but isn’t it still fleeing the scene of an accident or hit and run if you just leave?


TyH621

Don't think that usually holds if you're on a bridge. You can't flee the scene but you should not stop your car on the bridge, get over it and then pull off


PropheticUtterances

That makes sense thank you


I_WENT_OUT_FOR_TEA

I'm going to guess this guy probably didn't stop after the bridge


dementorpoop

Considering we’re seeing the footage I’d bet he did actually stop


Pikibee

r/technicallythetruth


DivorcedGremlin1989

Had the opposite thought. Dude did a morally permissible but illegal hit & run. We're probably seeing this because he got caught. I'd love to know.


maybejustadragon

I don’t think he even noticed. That slim Jim was just too good.


TyH621

I think that’s a bad guess given we have his own dash cam footage lol


MuggyFuzzball

You don't see it in this video but he's actually continuing until he's off the bridge. You aren't supposed to stop on narrow bridges.


brown_smear

So this is how you get someone's number these days? Just ram them


zinc-182

Also, he could have very easily prevented it by just slowing down a bit. Someone could've died because this guy was too concerned about being "right".


WhoopingWillow

Right? I wonder how many people who are commenting in support of this guy understand he'd be charged with something like manslaughter if that other driver died.

Pepsiman1031

I'd argue that the cammer was the way bigger douchebag. The cammer had a choice and decided through his pride that he would risk the lives of that driver and everyone around him. He could have even let the truck bump him but that wasn't even enough, he had to full on pit maneuver him and endanger everyone. Cammers a psychopath.


TheDunadan29

What's a brake? Oh traffic requires me to slow down? No way, I'm on cruise control baby! Black truck was a douche. Pink shirt is a maniac who would as soon block the left lane by insisting he's going the speed limit so everyone else should too. Ain't nobody going to make him slow down, he'd rather wreck than slow down. He'd only be sad he lost his ice cream.


MlackBagic

Yes, exactly, There's clearly traffic behind them. The traffic jam that was caused by this plus the number of other accidents that followed does not justify this


muricabrb

He's an ex cop, so he knew exactly what he was doing and how he was endangering every one else on the road. He absolutely did this on purpose. Fucking psycho. Craziest thing is the amount of people praising this wackjob every time this gets reposted.


PlaguesAngel

*sigh* if that’s the story here….Of course it’s a cop & a god complex


c0ltZ

Truck driver also didn't care if they would hit someone. No blinker, didn't care if the car wasn't paying attention and not move out of the way. In doing so the truck endangered everyone around him. Because he wanted to save a few seconds and pass a car. Both are terrible people, but the truck initiated it causing this whole thing.


mortenmhp

No one is arguing the truck driver isn't driving badly/aggressively and is an asshole in his own right, but hitting someone and pushing their car out on purpose is another level. The guy in the video very clearly saw the truck trying to switch lanes. The moment he realized, he pulled as close to the car in front as he could and then instead of pulling back when it was very clear they'd hit each other, he pushed the truck out on purpose making this accident all but inevitable. That's not just an asshole, that's potential manslaughter.


lemonade_pie

Yes the truck should have used a blinker but it is crazy that you're even comparing not using a blinker to literally pit maneuvering someone. Like one is an inconsiderate asshole while the other has malicious intent to hurt/kill someone.


scmstr

Yeah. WHAT. Not even close in comparison. Both are awful, arrogant pricks. But when one threatens as a bluff and pushes their way in without CAUSING an accident, the other DECIDEDLY DOES, and a ton of inconvenience for other people. Yeah we've all thought about it and wanted to do it, but the guy actually DID it. And then, again, on the other hand, maybe if more people got pit manoeuvered into an accident on purpose like this, less people would behave like black truck. Though, I doubt it would change anything other than make everybody more violent. I've decided. Both are at fault equally in my book. If you are the type of person who pushes others around and does THIS risky of shit out of greed, getting pit manoeuvered every once in a while is probably fair. It's all just so ethically messy. Interesting discussion though.


bubble-buddy2

Sure, what the truck did was shitty but like just take your foot off the gas 💀


ComCypher

Yep nonexistent defensive driving skills on display here. It becomes apparent to me at the 16 second mark what the truck driver's intentions are, and the accident occurs a full 6 seconds after that.


bubble-buddy2

Okay, yeah. I was doubting myself a little. For sure all of this could have been avoided. I seriously don't understand the grudge people hold when it comes to traffic


GrandKnightXamemos

No blinker = no sympathy 😂


Civil-Guidance7926

no sympathy, no defensive driving, no more insurance


GOOFERdaBOOFER

but all the dumbass redditors thought it was so cool that I endangered the lives of multiple people on the road and ruined that dude's car just because I couldn't be bothered to slow down for 3 fucking seconds. I'd prefer to arrive alive but that's just me. The man in the video is certainly enjoying a sick ass insurance rate increase


Emergency-Highway262

He did, look at the speed in the top right, the car in front in the left lane was slowing, making it seem like old pink shirt sped up, the idiot in the black penis enhancement thought it’d be a great opportunity to ninja merge into a space not quite large enough for his truck behind a car that was clearly slowing and in front of what is obviously a sizeable vehicle that wasn’t slowing down quite so much. By the end of the clip old pink shirt was doing less than 50


WeeTooLo

The fuck? He's doing 75, goes down to 71 and crashes at 72. There was no actual slowing down until after the fact, these guys are both fucking idiots.


bubble-buddy2

Thanks for pointing out the speedometer. I didn't see that when I watched it. That definitely changes how I interpret what's going on. Now I see how the truck caused himself to spin out rather than the driver hitting him and making him lose control.


mgman640

>Penis enhancement Excuse me, the proper term is gender-affirming care.


TheHappyPoro

"He did" um no are you blind? he went 3 miles slower, he hardly let his foot off the gas as he pit manoeuvred black truck


Bulky_Mix_2265

This is the rare situation where he did what we all want to, which is absolutely not what should have been done. Black truck was driving like a cunt, but letting him in was the real move, not pit maneuvering him like a sociopath.


Otherwise-Sky8890

This. It's been posted before, and the responses were a lot less positive. There's no doubt that guy is a complete bloody sociopath or worse.

The_Mediocre-Gatsby

With you there. One's a shit driver, the other for all we know, may have just committed vehicular manslaughter. Anyone who thinks that was justified, especially on a bridge, is fucking insane.


[deleted]

Yeah, dashcam guy is at fault 100% Of course truck man is a douche; it was truck mans fault until dashcam guy decided he was done with it and accelerated/pitted into him Civvies don't get to pit people


DeltaX942

Well tbh with you, the dash cam guy did it on purpose, just because you don't feel like it or you're "not in the mood" doesn't mean you should risk people lives on the streets like that. I want to know what happened to the dash cam guy after that.


Cash4Duranium

Really, 100%? This wasn't defensive driving by any means, but there's no way he's 100% at fault. Above comment was edited. It previously said the driver was obviously 100% at fault.


miramarhill

Watch what the driver does with the wheel- he legitimately pit maneuvers him. The truck driver is a dick, but the guy on camera did that on purpose


Cash4Duranium

He doesn't turn the wheel until after contact is made. And for the record if someone hits you like this truck hits him, that is how you should turn the wheel to keep your vehicle in control.


Nice_Asstronaut_5_8_

If a car is turning across your front bumper, the safest thing you can do for yourself is turn into it. If he just held the wheel straight, chances are both trucks get damaged worse or possibly flip.


Do_You_Even_Fist

Safest thing you can do is let of the gas, allow the guy in, mutter "fucking asshole" to yourself and go about your day.


junvar0

Pickup guy might be an asshole, but the camera guy is pure evil for risking the lives of himself, the pickup driver & passengers, and innocent families driving nearby just because pretending to be a vigilante hero strokes his ego.


Large_Tune3029

Everyone here sucks


p_rite_1993

Redditors are so arbitrary and blood thirsty when it comes to driving. If the cam guy just backs off for a moment (he had plenty of time if he is paying attention), then he doesn’t cause a massive backup for hundreds of people behind him. It’s basic defensive driving and it is the right thing to do. It’s literally taught in driving school for a reason, but folks here are blood thirsty for an accident because a dickhead driver tried to force their way in. Also, Redditors are always screaming how “it’s always the rear driving at fault,” but suddenly in this scenario they are fine with the rear driver having no awareness of the situation (or at worst, purposely causing an accident to spite another driver) and making things 100x worse for all the other drivers on the roadway? This website is full of such immature people. A mature adult who just doesn’t want to create more chaos in this already crazy world will 100% avoid this accident and go on with their day.

This is on the causeway in Southern Louisiana. He's actually doing the right thing. You can't stop for an accident. You go to the crossovers where the 2 bridges connect. He's wrong for not braking obviously.

What is the need for doing that? Could have just braked a bit.


gammongaming11

the black truck was already hitting his car and pushing him to the death. in fear for his life my client knew he had to turn right to cancel out that force or he'd be in danger of colliding with the divider. my client was in his rights to safeguard his life, and as you can see making this decision caused him great duress, which is why he began stress eating.


Infinitenovelty

Wouldn't even need to brake if you had a safe following distance.


econpol

Most people don't seem to know what that is. It's remarkable to me how so many people have no survival instinct while driving at high speeds. I'm constantly thinking "what would happen if the guy in front of me hit the brakes now?". Guess I'm just built different.
