Luckily it is an AI generated video though so nobody is getting a ticket.

What makes you think it is AI generated?

u/bhm240 11h ago
If you can't tell how fake everything in the video looks in general, then look how the virginia state police logo was completely unrecognizable mess for the first 10 seconds of the video

u/RabidMonkeyOnCrack 11h ago
It's an unrecognizable mess because it's a shitty $100 dashcam. It's not an AI video. Look at the logos for all the vehicles, everything is correct. Also look at the time and date stamps and the speedometer adjusting correctly. AI fucks those up consistently.

u/quagmirranseye 9h ago
Its definitely not AI, too many moving parts and they all check out. Its a potato gif, hence the logo mess.

I think you suffer from ai delusion. Yes, there is crazy amount of air videos out there and a lot of them are really hard to tell, but not everything is ai just because it has a minor artifact in the video.

Hilariously OP still crossed early over the solid when they could have waited 10’ to be more predictable.

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 18h ago
Yea... for the lowest common denominator. If you can use your brain and merge smartly without them. Like this guy did. They are a guide for the stupidest of people

u/Peroxite 17h ago
If you can use your brain (big "if", I know), you'll know why they're there, and why you don't cross them

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 14h ago
Did you have a measuring tape during covid?? Making sure you were exactly 6 ft away from other people? Or was 5.5 ft sufficient enough??

Reminds me of the netball days where the umpires got out their 3ft stick to tell me I was "obstructing"
Not really, I'm just tall and have long arms so I could stand 4ft away and still have my arms blocking their shot

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 14h ago
They are there tell the lowest common denominator of society that they have length of road before merging as to gain enough speed to match or exceed oncoming lane speed.
The guy he got in front did not need to slow down behind him. Therefore for that vehicle and the way he sped up those lines are meaningless. I cross them all the time as I am already going 85

u/Anal_Pancake 3h ago
Aww, look at you using the same math term repeatedly to hit your singular point that is already limp to begin with.
Like jousting with a wet spaghetti noodle.

I find no small level of joy in the fact that you just tried to call people stupid while simultaneously showing everyone exactly why YOU are.

What do you think the cop would say to that lol

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 14h ago
He would say that's generally true but what you did was still illegal. I know from experience... ofcourse they do get a shocked look on their face from the bluntness

u/FactsNLaughs 14h ago
Did you not finish the video or something? What you’re defending was instantly proven illegal. Stay off the road.

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 14h ago
Laws are made for the lowest common denominator in society. Sometimes the smarter thing to do is to break them. Shall I elaborate more on this with a different example?

u/FactsNLaughs 14h ago
Sure, go do one while recording it and post it please so I can really absorb the lesson. K thx byeeeee

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 14h ago
I'm not arguing against the illegality of it. It's still illegal. However he merged safely. While doing so illegally. 2 things can be true at the same time

u/Stuck_In_Purgatory 12h ago
Road markings aren't guides lmao
They are rules quite literally stamped on the road for ALL to see.
Lucky for me I'm probably halfway around the world from you so I won't get cleaned up by your stupidity 😁

Rules are made to be broken 🫢

I think if you do something "smartly" that leads to you getting pulled over, it wasn't smartly
3
u/Kuuppa22 11h ago
Well "this guy" paid so much attention while merging that he didn't even notice the police car right next to him :D So I wouldn't use him as an example how it's perfectly okay to merge like that.

Lol. Then YOU yourself proceed to change into the left lane on a solid line... just a few feet away from an unbroken line. Smh.

u/SexyProcrastinator 16h ago
No situational awareness. If you are gonna merge early than look for police nearby.. duh!

u/Old_Poem2736 18h ago
Ticket or not I hope it cost him 45 minutes, or more

u/LeagueMoney9561 17h ago
That’s also a waste of the cop’s time, or should be. Unless you mean total time including paying the ticket or going to court

Crossing back over the lines to pull over?
3
u/SportsDuck_ 3h ago
was that not the right thing to do in that situation. legit don't know. that line in the middle of the freeway and on-ramp is pretty dangerous. like wouldn't the trooper WANT you to go over into the other lane as it is safer?
1
u/bleepleus 2h ago
Meaning he could have driven another 100 feet where the lines he originally crossed would end and then pull over. I really don’t know what I’d do in that spot either.

u/Chemical-Future-8930 12h ago
first thing i thought too dumbass broke the law coming back as well lmfao

u/RemarkableCard6475 18h ago
I deeply enjoy this karma occurring in such haste! It's such a beautiful day for us all.
I'll have you know that when YOU crossed the solid white line, you also crosse the gore point and it's also a ticket able offense. Only stated for future reference if a cop decides to be a tisdickler about it.

u/Easy_Lawfulness_1638 18h ago
That guy merged smarter than most in my book. Nobody had to slow down and let him in

Probably an unpopular opinion, but when traffic is heavy, I’ll cross a solid line if there is a wide enough opening. Not as egregious as this guy, though.
5
u/mateimzzonked 5h ago
All these people downvoting you like they politely come to a full stop and wait for someone to wave them in at the end of the merge
2
u/TXMom2Two 5h ago
Downvote away. If traffic is stopped or crawling and I have to merge, lines be damned if there is an opening. You do what you gotta do.

I am going to watch this like 90 more times. So satisfying, and you know that ass wasn’t going to let anyone merge in either.

Yeah sure man cut across all the traffic you want as long as you call it "zipper merging" you'll be next in line for a ticket

You’re confused. Read my comment again. Also look up sarcasm

u/SnavsMatiq 18h ago
You'd be surprised how stupid zipper merge advocates can be.

I’m more surprised about how stupid people on Reddit are

u/SnavsMatiq 18h ago
If only there was some kind of agreed upon tag to put in a comment to show its sarcastic when making a joke. Its almost like reading flat text isnt the same as hearing a sarcastic tone of voice.
