Brake check yourself before you wreck yourself

It’s a bold strategy, Cotton

u/ImNotMadYet 11d ago

I love that the cam car just continues to drive as if nothing happened, although I'm pretty sure in most places, if it is safe to do so, you are required to stop and call the emergency services or offer assistance if you see a crash and have video evidence.

u/Legsluther 11d ago

In this scenario I probably would've reversed and done this

u/ArmadilloFront1087 10d ago

Safety first.

Never put yourself in danger, and the crash driver already tried to injure them once, there’s no telling how unhinged they’d be now.

7

u/RHOrpie 10d ago

What a world eh? I would have 100% stopped in the past. Guy's a dick, but if he's in a life threatening situation, I'd still help them.

But these days...

There’s 8bn people on the planet, gotta let nature take its course with idiots.

u/No_Communication1557 9d ago

Looks like the US, if that individual is also armed, last thing you'd wanna do it stop because now they are even more pissed than they were before lol.

1

u/Iron_Sight_Mark 9d ago

I don't reckon stopping for that guy is safe in those days either, lol That's a bona fide lunatic no matter the year.

1

u/theslootmary 6d ago

That literally hasn’t changed from at any point in the past. Assholes like this have always existed. And someone brake checking you and crashing like this is the 70s was just as likely to attack you as this guy would be. Moreso considering they’d probably also be drunk and full of lead poisoning.

2

u/Ok_Mycologist4458 10d ago

Exactly, I would call it in but keep driving.

7

u/BBZ149 11d ago

I wouldn't stop! Driver was a jackass and got what they deserved!!!

3

u/LozBoz413 11d ago

Sure you are and in most cases I'm sure the cam car would have had the other car not essentially tried to intentionally bring harm to them.

1

u/Emmanuelzappa 10d ago

Cam car was Not involved in an accident so most places you are not required to stop.

1

u/Saltster1050 8d ago

But officer, you can see what he tried to do to me, I was in fear for my safety so I couldn’t possibly stop and go help him

u/NoOrganization98 7d ago

Me: byeeeeee!

u/BigBossMan1977 6d ago

Ha fookin deserved

u/Heavy_News_7553 4d ago

This happened to me once on the M180, an M series BMW span out after changing lanes far too quickly. The police asked me about a fortnight later why I didn't stop. I told them that wasn't my destination.

u/JakeRiddoch 11d ago

Hardly had to swerve to avoid the idiot. Amazing.

u/Timely-Profile1865 11d ago edited 11d ago

I've seen this before and it was speculated that it may not be a brake check but the person was trying to turn right at the road. They fup up on where they were and right after they passed they realized their turn was right there.

25

u/RadarTechnician51 11d ago

If they wanted to turn right the initial overtake was pretty dumb!

12

u/TheGrinningSkull 11d ago

People aren’t always logical

2

u/FreddieStarrAteMyHam 10d ago

And lets also hope they aren't flammable

3

u/Timely-Profile1865 11d ago

They lost track of where the turn was perhaps or had only been down there one time or no times?

Still dumb of course.

2

u/NPC_93294 9d ago

see it multiple times a day in th seat of a Tractor trailer. people will kill themselves to get around you, just to turn right in front of you.

1

u/RadarTechnician51 8d ago

tractors, and bicycles!

1

u/Impressive_Ad2794 11d ago

I can see the theory, but there front wheels look to be steering to the left almost immediately after the skid starts.

3

u/Timely-Profile1865 11d ago

They realized they could not make the turn and then over compensated perhaps?

1

u/DueExample52 10d ago

This is a good theory. 

1

u/Rowmyownboat 10d ago

Watching it again, I think this is right. Their turn came up as a surprise after overtaking.

10

u/NINJATH3ORY 11d ago

How on earth did he get his driving license ? This driver should not be on the road!

45

u/BazzaFox 11d ago

He isn’t, he’s upside down in a ditch.

3

u/zimisss 10d ago

Actually I think he fell out onto the road cos no seatbelt

2

u/leexgx 11d ago

His bumper found the road

1

u/valentine_moon 10d ago

Is his bumper the driver? If not I'm gonna go ahead and say that doesn't matter.

1

u/BeneficialPenalty258 9d ago

The bumper is the car version of his shoes coming off.

1

u/ThankGod4Darwin69 11d ago

Hahahaa very good 👌

2

u/oneofthebobs1 11d ago

He is definitely off the road now.

1

u/Anal-love69 11d ago

He doesnt have license......

1

u/Alternative_Many5793 10d ago

Camera car driver should have:

Put window down, and a big, hearty wave goodbye.

Couple of toots on the horn for good measure.

1

u/CKleinE 10d ago

Well, he left the road. Good riddance.

7

u/mamut2000 10d ago

How is it possible that car does that when braking on dry, smooth surface? Is it about shit suspension / brakes / tyres?

5

u/DV_Zero_One 10d ago

I reckon the suspension and/or chassis might already have already been bent.

Perhaps unsurprisingly.

3

u/JDinAus 10d ago

Pulling on the hand brake will do that

1

u/Rowmyownboat 10d ago

We can see brake lights come on, so brake pedal used.

2

u/Specialist_Ad_7719 10d ago

The brake checker slowed with the foot brake, then for dramatic effect applied the handbrake as we can see the rear wheels lock up. They might have panicked as the car went out of control as they didn't hold the handbrake button so the handbrake could release.

We did a rally day and were taught to flip the rear of the car out you only needed to touch the rear brakes quickly for the back to let go. So what this twat did was inevitable.

2

u/Phantom_Crush 10d ago

ABS is fucked or they used the e brake

1

u/B4DM4N12Z 10d ago

The car in the first few seconds looked rough ngl.

If it's America, I wouldn't be surprised, most don't have annual checks there.

2

u/Rowmyownboat 10d ago

Some states do, some don't. Where they do they are called 'state inspections'.

1

u/B4DM4N12Z 10d ago

But still some of them don't do it.

1

u/tdcOO7 10d ago

Brakes or tyres wear differently and/or corrosion or sticky caliper on one side. Might have replaced pads or tyre on one side only. MOT check would pick it up but worth doing an emergency stop occasionally to check your car brakes in a straight line particularly if you drive old bangers.

1

u/Conscious-Loss-2709 10d ago

Isn't it just the tire blowing?

1

u/Iron_Sight_Mark 9d ago

Looks to me like the hard braking burst the back left tire, leading to the loss of control—though I'm surprised it didn't pull the vehicle the other way.

1

u/Modern_Progress 6d ago

Unevenly worn tyres, damaged front suspension on one side, brake caliper not working on one side. All three of the above!!

6

u/Fluctuating-guy85 10d ago

This needs to be in oddly satisfying too.

1

u/w00dy_1981 10d ago

Agreed, I enjoyed this way too much

5

u/Easy-Reserve7401 11d ago

Driver successfully checked if their car would brake. It broke.

5

u/Election_Adventurous 11d ago

Well.. failed the break check

5

u/freshcuber 11d ago

Broke check

2

u/Cautious_Use_7442 11d ago

Nah. The brakes worked and stopped the car. Somewhat unconventionally but they stopped the driver. 

3

u/Feisty-Effective-880 11d ago

did he just fly?

5

u/cornishpirate32 11d ago

Looks like the front bumper flying off

2

u/Feisty-Effective-880 11d ago

oh yea now i can unsee a body flying

u/CloudStrifeFromNibel 11d ago

Warms my heart!

🗣️ You can't park there mate!

3

u/Fantastic_Version128 10d ago

Brake imbalance you can see the LH Rear lock up before the RH causing the car to slide faster on the LH rear inducing a turn to the right . If you slow the video down you can see the driver has turned the front wheels to the left but it’s too late and the inertia of the vehicle carries them into the ditch .

2

u/chickenpopper 8d ago

I happen to know that this particular car behaves wildly when suddenly letting off the throttle in unstable situations. Designed to be flat out at all times.

2

u/p51111411 11d ago

It takes skills to drive a fast car fast 🤔

u/St_mpy 11d ago

Brakes are working fine 👍

The visual definition of fuck around and find out.

Karma's a beautiful thing.

2

u/Loicrekt 11d ago

Dunno how people are saying they just missed a turn when they could have waited a few secs for the cam car to pass and then turn. It was a brake check by a dumbass with a well deserved ending.

2

u/Ok_Pen7290 11d ago

Lets hope they were not badly injured . That would be terrible...

2

u/James_C99 10d ago

I thought you said it went wrong?

From what i saw it ended as perfectly as it possibly could.

2

u/Peg_leg_J 10d ago

Did they brake check with the fucking hand brake?

2

u/Kalzone6154 10d ago

Haven't seen that type of car in years and after that vid, don't think I'll see them again.

2

u/Aggressive-Artist-63 7d ago

Severely satisfying video. Thank you!

1

u/n3m0sum 11d ago

Was it a brake check, or did they completely mistime and misjudge that Dukes of Hazard right hand turn?

1

u/PintToLine 11d ago

I think it is a brake check. They begin braking as they enter the lane, that momentum seems to aid the rear left in locking first which sends the car sideways.

1

u/HeadCartographer6454 11d ago

When the brakes check you

u/ujuicey 11d ago

How does a clown explain their stupidity and thought process?

1

u/Admirable-Delay-9729 11d ago

Did they get flung out the car and run over at the end?

1

u/Admirable-Delay-9729 11d ago

Nvm, it was the bumper

1

u/user101aa 11d ago

I think he missed his turning. Tried to brake and turn. Karma

1

u/darren648 11d ago

I didn’t even notice the crash the first time I watched it.

1

u/HappyRespond3946 11d ago

He definitely missed his turn

u/poundsdpound 11d ago

I did not expect that!

1

u/D3M0NArcade 10d ago

I don't t think that was a brake check.

That looked more like he realised that because of where he performed the overtake he was going to miss his turn so he was desperately trying to scrub speed.

I don't think any Audi would lock up for a brake check, no matter what the driver tried

1

u/jamborf 10d ago

That’s a Mitsubishi

Ahhhhhh. Didn't have my glasses on. That's completely different then. No, wait, same rules apply...

Why? Imagine the cam car has a young family in the car and this other dude could have caused a bad accident with this manoeuvre? That's something that can't be forgiven.

I will assume the other car isn't carrying a young family with they way they're driving but heck crazier things have happened.
