Cam guy doesn't know how to live in a world without being in conflict. It must be exhausting.

Nah drivers like this are a risk to everyone else. They need to be put in their place, especially with how many people drive in the US

This is such a foolish sentiment. The solution to one idiot is not being an idiot yourself. Your job is not to "enforce" the law using your own vehicle.

Calm down. Drive defensively. You'll get to your destination just fine.

He didn’t try to enforce the law using his vehicle, he just yelled at the lady

He maintained his course then exited the situation, and when a cop was conveniently nearby he flagged them down.

You are objectively insane and that is not at all what this video shows. For hyour own sake, learn to calm down and drive better.

Drivers like the cam guy are too.

Getting angry and not being a good defensive driver is dangerous as well. If the cam guy continues to try to make a point and hold people accountable, one day he will lose. It's not worth it. He wants to be in control of everything. He can't be.

What would you have done? She was basically behind him and pushing him into the lane, he can’t just brake, he might get hit.

All he did was maintain his speed and lane. Nothing happened and the police handled it.

Of course you can fucking break. What are you even talking about. The road is filled with shit drivers on both sides that refuse to use their brakes because they have to be “right”.

he can’t just brake

What if I told you he could

And what if I told you he could just honk like a normal person and continue on with his day alive and 1 car length delayed, which we generougly will call 2 seconds of extra travel time

He could have backed off. I'm not saying the other driver was right.

My point is. In that moment he got tunnel vision. Instead of finding a way to desecalate, he kept wanting to win. A dozen other things could have been happening around him that he missed because he was concentrating on this problem and extending it. The more times you get tunnel vision on the road because of other bad drivers behavior the more likely you are going to suffer something catastrophic yourself.
