I Almost Got Rear Ended Today

O Joy! today just proved to me why I don’t normally arrive to work on time. I usually show up closer to 9:30 than 9:00 and it is because I am either sitting in jammed traffic or about to be killed like today).

In my rearview mirror I spotted a car barreling down on me and I had no where to go. I was already in the left (passing) lane next to a truck and the cement median…no where to go and at nearly 80mph already neither me nor my car was willing to go any faster to try and get out of this guys way. I honestly have know idea why he was trying to pass her or why he felt he could do so by getting behind me and pushing me out of the way. I really wish cops were around to see this kind of thing or even willing to ticket someone when we have video evidence like this or their aggressive driving tactics.

any who….here is the vid of the guy that scared the pants off of me this morning (all the fun is in the first minute so no need to watch the whole thing)

So while I was trying to find the video of this a-hole I wound up watch the five minute clip prior to the one that had him on it. In this vid I spotted a bunch of other aggressive drivers anyone of which may have been the reason he was being such a jerk. Amazing what goes on behind you that you only glimpse a few seconds of when briefly checking your rearview mirrors.

Please note: the rear view camera is a mirrored image.
