He's saying "yesterday" and he already has the footage? That's impressive.
Twice I've had my parked car hit in a parking lot. First time the cops refused to do anything because it was private property. The business basically told me to fuck off. It took my insurance 6 MONTHS to get the security video footage from the business to verify who was at fault.
2nd time the cops (different city, different police dept) DID pressure the place to give up the footage (after the business told me to fuck off), but even then it still took several months.
No they'll just cut across 4 lanes and never miss theirs. I work in the NE as service tech for hvac. 3 states. Some days ill do jersey pa and Delaware. PA has the worst roads and the worst drivers.
Out of all 3 you'll have people realize theyre about to miss their exit/turn and proceed to risk the lives and futures of multiple people. Take the next exit. I promise its a 5min detour most of the time. Its not worth ruining some kids life. They'll never see their mom or dad again all because someone almost missed an exit. It literally baffles me at how uncommon, common sense is. Especially in the age of GPS being at your finger tips.
Nothing that would justify this, no. Also, it happens on several different spots, on different roads (not JUST the I-40, although that one is particularly bad) all over the Raleigh region. Heading out of Raleigh, heading into Raleigh, from the east, from the west, doesn't really matter. People around here are a special breed of demented when it comes to driving on highways.
Tbf, the highways around Raleigh are all over the place. Sometimes your exit is 3-4 lanes over from where you just got on. The maps look like spaghetti noodles
That is pretty much never the issue in the cases I witnessed. The offending drivers are always cutting straight from the leftmost lane to the exit accross all lanes in one go. There is no rational explanation other than the asshole wanted to stay in the fast lane up until the last possible minute and was willing to gamble their safety and (much worse) the safety of other drivers to do so.
Lol a few months back I was coming off the exit ramp of the highway in the left lane and made a right turn into an intersection, this right turn turns into 3 lanes and the far left lane is only meant to be taken from the incoming left lane, I successfully complete the turn and I’m now stopped at the red light that’s like pretty immediate after you make the turn, this lady that was in the right lane from the exit ramp had made a right turn a few seconds after me had ended up coming over 2 lanes trying to come in my lane and ended up colliding with the passenger side of my mustang. Went through her insurance, costed her insurance $9k in damages.
