It never ceases to amaze me how many drivers will lay on the horn for 3-5 seconds, but won't hit their brakes
indeed, just about everybody is in the wrong here, both parties should get a ticket and when damage occured, no insurance should cover either side the first thing they teach you and/or is in your contract is to drive defensively, which isn't honking and staying close to the car, you have to create distance or pull over until the other party has gone, avoid rage, don't fuel it with illegal revenge also, you don't get brake checked for no reason, the most common reason for road rage like beheaviour is that the people intentionally slow down traffic by driving only half the speed limit or pulling out a side road just when you get there etc etc remember: we only get to see how it ends, not how both drivers got there
Don't you know? Everyone else is supposed to just get out of their way 😅
Didn't know using your hands and feet at the same time was hard
@@nathanfaria312maybe if you drive without your phone in your hand it might be easier for you
@@Heavymetalstonie420 what does that have to do with anything? All I was saying is you can easily use your horn and apply brakes at the same time.
This has happened to me twice since I retired as a cop. I was able to “make a phone call” with the first kid who said he did nothing wrong. He weaved back & forth across 3 lanes to be a jerk. He had no reason he said he was just going to do it to the first red vehicle he saw. When the cops arrived while we were talking he started shouting asking for help as he said I was a road rager. 😂😂. The cops knew better, we had worked together before I retired!! 😂😂. I filed my statement and a copy of the video from my dash cam. The kid filed a report saying I assaulted and battered him. The video showed otherwise. He was then charged with criminal mischief, assigned a traffic violation of dangerous driving, got a 3 month driving suspension and 6 months of probation. He never knew I had video until he showed up to court. He represented himself. The second one, I was driving my 69 3/4 K20 Chevy 4x4 with the most serious front & rear bumpers out there made of drill stem pipe. There are Rossi rails that are doubled up with slightly lighter pipe that still doesn’t bend, even with the full weight of the truck on it,,, just slides when in the rocks. It has a 4” lift and 35s. A kid in a Subaru BRZ decided to brake check me and when he cut into the lane I was in there was maybe 3 ft between us. I didn’t even see his brakes, so I didn’t stop or even slow down!! I destroyed his trunk/hatch and a good portion of the passenger side of the car as it spun to the right. When I stopped to see if the occupants were ok, the lady (later learned it was his fiancé) had already given him a bloody nose!! Glad I grabbed my dash cam when I walked over!! He asked ME for help. I did ask her to stop, she didn’t because felt he tried to kill her. In the end she had broken his nose and his whole face was swelling from being hit. He went in a ambulance, she went in a separate ambulance l she broke her wrist & hand hitting him so hard, fortunately they were on the same arm. They both knew I had a camera. He was very honest in his report, he did it because I was driving a gas guzzler truck. He’s right, but I only drive it maybe 2500 miles a year, it’s a classic! He was again tagged with dangerous driving. She was charged & convicted with domestic battery. They didn’t get married and she had to move as guys would not date her (for good reason I think). It’s just messed up out there. I drove in a marked vehicle and was brake checked once for doing the speed limit in the fast lane. The guy said that lane is for speeders, not cops to do the speed limit. I asked him to show me where that existed under the motor vehicle act. He tried and even fought it in court. There was no accident. The judge was in a good mood that day, said even he couldn’t produce a reason even HE could speed, he sure as heck didn’t find any reason that lane was created for speeders. He let the ticket for obstruction of traffic stand. The guy was at his limit for points on his licence & that ticket put him over. He had a 1 month driving suspension. He was annoying right up until I retired. I hit him with several other tickets, then after his buddy’s wedding, I got him for speeding & impaired driving. He blew .32 and lost his licence for 6 month. Then he had to use an interloc for 1 year but failed on that twice garnering another year of driving suspension. I have since moved,,,, I retired. I bet he is just as pleasant to deal with for the officers that replaced me,,,, haha. I was a Seargent when I retired, but we were small enough I could get out on the road once in a while. That’s why I never pursued a career beyond Seargent. They become political in nature after that and I liked being involved, not in meetings. Everyone please drive safe, Eh!
As a non-American I understood about half of that (also a female would be fiancée with two e's) but yeah it can be crazy out there. I would never feel safe driving in the States, way too many distracted drivers and poor driving school standards.
@@Hirotoro4692 - I’m a Canadian, but we have similar distracted drivers here as well. It’s like an electronic plague.
The kid in the first story brake checked himself even in court. What a way to go! Just when you thought people can't get any more stupid they surprise you.
I really love the ones where the brake checked starts pushing the car in front like:"No, we go now...."
I had one of those once. Little car cut me off to get "first in line" at a light. I honked. He waved with "one-finger", and then backed up into my trucks bumper. I then proceeded to push him up under the red light until I got to the stop bar myself. Technically, I wasn't in the intersection... but he was!
@@sproctor1958 My man!
@@sproctor1958 You the Man!!
That was good, but the reaction gifs were stupid.
Hey, you never know... they may be a carjacker and you're just protecting yourself.
All of the incidents were pretty good but the one where the truck kept pushing the brake checker down the road until he pit maneuvered him was the very best! Well done Sir!
The one where He bump in 3 Times until the Glass Breaks was good too where
@mudpuddle8805 No stupid. It was a felony
crazy Russians :)
Anyone who has the audacity to brake check a vehicle much larger than themselves deserves EVERYTHING that happens to them!
theyr insurance scammers but these days ppl have the dash cam to fight back to bad ppl also use them to justify their own road rage
Or a cop car 🤣
..or even to brake check a smaller one. It's an asshole thing to do.
@@tripsix263 That is the issue with dash cam - they do not care who is in the right, always have a dash camera they are worth gold, in this day and age. I agree with you, these videos to me show clear intentions of wanting a crash, can only assume for insurance/medical pay out.
@@kevh9497 This isn't brake checking, this is purposely trying to cause an accident.
I'm a retired truck driver. I once had an idiot brake-check me at about 4am on I-45 southbound between Dallas and Houston. Almost no traffic and this guy came up from FAR behind me, there was no way I cut him off. He came around me, hit his brakes, wouldn't let me pass him. I finally stopped on the shoulder to get him to move on. But believe me, I was ready to drive thru/over some vehicles if it had even begun to look like a hijack attempt! But there were simply no other vehicles within miles.
Yep me to retired in 2015 for good started in 74 , the dumb shit people pull boggles the mind it's almost like they are trying to kill themselves an yep maybe some are , made a good living raised the kids no regrets except for the senseless deaths over the years for no reason that's part of the job i guess o well , Hope you have a Great retirement an lots of grandkids to keep you on your toes .
Right! To a trucker, a brake checker looks just like a hijacker.
@@fredashay Never watched ship Pirates. Good as any explanation to a stupid ego flexing, cash or truck makes more sense.
You only need 1 car with 2 drivers for a hijacking... Glad it wasn't one tho.
This is the thing, these aren't brake checks, these are clearly wanting a crash, can only assume for insurance pay outs. Truck driver myself - and had more than a few try the same. I just laugh, 32 tonne truck isn't going to give you a nice little crash for an insurance claim - it is going straight over you and your ass is dead, but hey they still tried. Oh well, getting very efficient at cleaning blood up now, almost got it down to an art. May need to get a red truck next tie, make it easier to hide. lol
One thing I've noticed is that some of these cops that get brake checked are tailgating the crap out of some people before hand.
They do it on purpose to get you to make a mistake so they can pull you over and then use all kinds of excuses to do whatever they want. 97% of cops are shitbags and the other 3% are shitbags for covering for them.
being tailgated is one thing that can make me brakecheck the tailgater, but only after everything else has failed.
Yeah. It’s illegal to tailgate. But it always astounds me how many people, even cops, don’t seem to know this.
In Germany we have the term "Nötigung" for this (maybe the translation could be "forcing somebody into something". Here to force somebody to change lane or drive faster). Nice try for the cop to bring the driver to court for brake checking. The cop itself would be in struggle. E.g. at 2:35 it looks like the driver is braking to keep the safety distance to the vehicle in front of him. So what is the argument of the cop?
@@mrxmry3264 02:50 the pig was at fault there for tailgating! he should be getting the ticket! Theres no law against driving along and using your brakes!
What is wrong with these people...never in all my life has it ever occurred to me to brake check someone - smh in bewilderment!
So what do you do, or feel like doing, when someone drives 1m behind you tail gaiting?
@@AndrewVanDay Show your brake lights but don't actually brake
@@AndrewVanDayYou have hands you have window
@@AndrewVanDay I just move to the idiot will run into someone else... simple.
I am over 60 and have lived through the US and been in the military and I never heard of brake checking until maybe ten years ago and thought it was a localized joke. Why would anyone want to brake checking someone??? It makes no sense! If your in a big enough hurry to want to h around someone why then put on your brakes? It just seems stupid and dangerous
Without a camera, the police will fault the person at the back for following too closely. The brake checked person then buys the brake checker a new car. The brake checker giggles about your insurance cost rising as they drive into the sunset.
Egos & AHoles…
Exactly what devil man said, it's all about fraudulent a holes looking to make what they think is a easy in and out court case pay day. These people are scum and a solid reason why I think dash cams should be mandatory and prebuilt into all cars.
Years ago, on Long Island, there was an insurance scam crew that worked the parkways. One would get in front of your car, while you got boxed in by two others (the parkways had only 2 lanes on each side). The lead car would hit the brakes and you rear-ended them. This was before dash cams and you would be found at fault.
It is
In 53 years of driving, I have never had anyone brakecheck me, but I have had people come from behind my semi to prevent me from changing lanes. Now I live in a state where most residents carry concealed weapons. Discourteous driving seldom happens here due to the possibility of the road rager ending up looking at the grass from underneath.
The brake checks are often triggered by immature "drivers" and flashing high beams 🤣
Lucky you. To-date I've witness two shooting deaths due to road rage and another due to a guy cornered in an intersection by cops who decided to shoot it out.
It's a shame that courtesy only comes with the possibility of violence
if carrying a concealed weapon is the only way to get drivers to pay attention then there is a lot more wrong than brake checking.
Yeah I had a Scharvtza brake checking me in Vermont.
You never, ever brake check a semi. If they have a full load, they slam on the brakes and the load shifts forward towards the back of the cab, the load will push the semi forward and you’ll get creamed. Same with sitting in the semis blind spot. They can’t see you. If they move into your lane you’ll have a bad accident. It won’t hurt the semi but you’ll have a bad day.
Correction: "...and the load shifts forward..."
@@wildbikerbill6530 you’re right
That wasn’t a truck, it was a tractor :o) He put the front counter weights through the rear window :D
one way to efficiently utilize those weights :p .
Who the f#&k brake checks a tractor looks like a big old fendt . Wouldn't even scratch that. As you say probably with a couple of tones of solid weight on the front . But ole farmer Giles had a good laugh.. the twot in the car can't really say he rear ended me can he ? Would get asked why were you going so slow
I was going to say the same. I have driven tractor and trailers contracting and wondered what truck the narrator was talking about.
5:02 Dashcam wasn't even near the traffic circle when the other car entered.
Dashcammer is moorn. Did not even slow down. He was honking like "everyone move away". Glad he breakcheked him. I would do the same.
The other vehicle had already exited the circle. It's amazing how adult drivers behave like selfish children.
And the clown with the dashcam had a give way sign.
Agreed, cammer had no reason to get upset at the 2nd car that entered the circle.
@@cheesyspace 💯 DC has no idea about roundabout rules
I have a lot of respect for truckers. My youngest son is a trucker. I was coming back from dropping my grandson off in St Louis and was in my personal vehicle. A trucker came up and when he wasn't clear of me came over and ran me off the road. My first thought was it is rainy, maybe he misjudged his distance or maybe he is just tired, giving him the benefit of the doubt. Then he pulled up along side of me and rolled down his passenger window and told me to pull over he was going to kick my ass. I was 6'2'', 220 pounds, ex sf and 27 years in martial arts and also worked for the highway patrol. I looked at him and told him he had better be on his way as i would guarantee he would lose this argument. He then tried to run me off the road again. That is when i decided he was going to jail. I followed him thinking i would arrest him when he pulled into a scale station. We drove about 50 miles and i saw where another trooper had a car pulled over so i stopped and walked up to the trooper, identified myself and told him what had happened. He said his partners were coming our way and radioed them, gave them the info. They radioed back and had him in sight and said they would stop him at a rest site. I told them i was on my way. They pulled him over at the rest stop and he got out all huffed up (all 120 pounds, 5'7'' of him ), and told the trooper "You guys f$# with me every time i come into this state". The trooper told him he had better calm down as he was the one who would put him in jail. He calmed down immediately. The trooper asked if he had had trouble with anyone that day. He replied no. About that time i drove up, he looked at me and started jumping up and down saying that's him, 'the guy who has been f$#ing with me. The trooper smiled and told him, "Guess what, he is one of us, you are under arrest. He was charged with two counts of careless and reckless driving and two counts of attempted homicide with a vehicle. I got in the car with the trooper writing the one report while the other trooper placed the suspect in his vehicle. When the trooper finished the report, he said i don't want to sign this re port and have to drive all the way to Jeff City to testify. I told him i would have to testify anyway so i would sign the arrest report. I waited to be told when to show up for court but was never called. He had an attorney represent him and he pled guilty to lesser charges, however the careless and reckless driving charges carried a mandatory license suspension of three years, therefore it would be three years before he could apply for a cdl license and i doubt any reliable company would hire him again. The day of the arrest i went home and called the company he worked for and told them what had happened. I also told them we left the truck in the rest area so they could send someone to pick it up. He thanked me and then said i bet i can tell you the name of the driver also. He did and he was right so i knew they had had trouble with him before.
Well done Sir ! , Thank you for getting an unsafe driver out of the Big Rigs &off the road...
Thank you. I do believe he was one bad apple and that most are very good drivers. I was glad he chose me so i could get him off the road.@@blainelytle341
Only time I ever 'brake checked' someone, I was trying to save his life. It was pitch dark, no lights, and there were cows in the road that could not be seen, but I knew were there because I had been there recently before. Some guy tried to do a swift-around on me, and would likely have sped through the road and killed himself on one of the cattle. My 'nasty driving' likely saved his life, as we came up on the cows in less than one minute after the incidents. I think he might had been grateful too.
combined it with yr hazard lights i hope
brake checking is when you apply nearly full brakes to surprise the driver behind. gently using the brakes with minimal deceleration is hardly brake checking, and appropriate to warn the driver (with hazard lights, too) that the road conditions dictate speeds below the limit. So which was it?
I like the new design wheel of bicycle. Don’t mess with bigger ones and respect the smaller ones, is good rule.
People need to realize when you break check the person behind you what you are actually doing is you are begging that person to smash into the back of you. So be careful what you wish for.
You better have a dashcam to prove what's happening ...
@@collectoroffrance Even funnier is pointing at the dashcam, suddenly you don't see them anymore.
I agree i had someone stopping me no reason like every person is doing on here like do it to a suv a car a van or a truck
@@collectoroffrance Assuming the person getting brake checked cares about who is responsible. Or what's legal. Like the one clip of the truck pushing the car down the road until it spun of the road. That driver clearly didn't care. To say nothing of how many times this may have ended in a shooting.
I didn't see any "break" checking going on here. Nothing broke, so there's nothing to check.
Undercover cop sure’s like tailgating
Bumper speed checking, getting a better view of the plate...who knows why they do it, but they can legally do it....when in the performance of their duty....sort of.
@@Frankie-Bleddyn police must follow rules of the road just like everyone else.
@@David-wm9wy Yes, the rules of the road, for police. Do you really think civilians can toot their horn and run a readlight? Can you just decide that the driver in front of you is driving a stolen car and pit him? Common man, stop being sovereign citizen about this. Now what were we talking about?
Absolutely. He should have had at least a car length for every 10 mph. He wasn't 1/3 of that.
@@Frankie-Bleddyn Rules of the road. Lights on and responding to a emergency is totally different than just driving recklessly.
My sister and grandma were brake checked. Back around 2008-2009, my grandma was taking her to get her cast taken off her ankle. They were in the diamond lane and someone suddenly stopped right in front of them, but the moment my grandma stops the car to prevent hitting them, they immediately take off, and a car hits them from behind. They were fine since they were in a van, but my sister still gets PTSD whenever we go on a freeway.
I LMAO'ed @0:52 when the Super Mario music and the police lights came on at the same time. Well done, video producer!
The second clip wasn’t even a trucker, but a farm tractor they brake checked. Farm tractors rarely have good brakes.
They don't go very fast, either, simply because they can't. You'd think people would know this, but... 😡
Anyone would brake check the tractor should have their drivers revoked permanently! I mean, it takes a spexial breed of entitled asshole to think they are that important. Obviously the tractor isnt going slow on purpose
@@silverhammer7779 even I a new driver knows to give them room thay littry teach this in high school driver’s ED thay don’t have good brakes and thay can’t move fast in my old area where I got out of high school there was a local farmer who got killed by a truck driver
Ok
And they were carrying a load and wouldve had a weight on the front to not make the tractor do wheelies.
at 8:19 is my favorite where the driver is not taking any BS from the car in front and is giving the car a proper punishment. i love it.
The bike one at the start is funny, because now he has to take the bus. He probably sat at the back, the driver and him looking at each other in the rear view mirror, until the bus crashes into an ambulance.
I had someone go around me and brake check me as I was going going uphill with a full load of whey on the trailer. Then he showed up at the one station I can pull the truck into to get supplies for the house while working. He said "Next time I'm putting you in the ditch!". I really would like to see him try with that charger, the only car model that I've seen 5 of sitting by side looking perfect, but we're totalled due to chassis damage. He got us both kicked out, and himself permanently banned because I didn't come in to start trouble. He did.
You kicked his ass? 😊
When I first started driving there was a few time where I’d be following a truck doing the speed limit and then we’d come up to a huge hill and I would nearly rear end them and always wondered why tf they slowed down for until I realised that some of those truck weigh upwards of 40 tons so I decided that next time I’m following a truck and I see a hill coming up I can either go around them or just sit behind them and enjoy the view
Who’s the seal at 6:18 lol😂
Love it when the rear window pops
The second video wasn't "A Trucker". That was a tractor. Like farm tractor, not tractor trailer. And, he had a weight attached to his front hitch. So, yeah, he didn't care about hitting the car. That's like a 1,000lbs solid block. The ultimate bumper!
I saw a brake check and collision. THEN 4 PEOPLE JUMPEDIN BACK SEAT OF HIT CAR AND THEY TRIED TO SUE INSURANCE AND GOOD DRIVER. THEY WENT TO JAIL FOR SCAM! 😅
Now if there was ever a need for a dash cam - think you got the number one reason right there.
I saw a van make a left turn out of right lane and was hit by driver in turn lane. I drove by and had seen what had happened so turned around and went back. It was a van of illegals and the woman who hit them was in a car. She said she was very glad i came back as the illegals were all trying to say it was her fault. I waited till police showed up and gave them a witness statement and my contact info. Never got called to testify so assume things went well for the lady.
This is the best argument for decent dashcams.
I knew a guy who was going down the highway and some bozo passed him and then pulled in front and then hit the breaks. He ended up hitting him. It went to court and the judge sided with the break checker saying he was following too close. Of course there was no camera.
Had an incident where someone was tailgating the shit out of me. I didnt brake check them, but i did take my foot off the gas somewhat and very gradually slowed down. They finally passed me. It was a cop car.
That is exactly what you're supposed to do when being tailgated.
Thanks for the Greatest video!! Y'all made my day. Have a great weekend and be safe!!
'Our patients gave out.' Um, who died in the hospital? 🤣
I know a trucker, in Australia, who had transport inspectors pass him dangerously on double lines, on a very narrow road with bends, and then brake check him. This guy slammed on the throttle and rammed them full force........40 ton truck versus 1 ton car. It wasnt pretty, and the inspectors got done for dangerous driving when they admitted they passed on double lines.
I love the officer that walks up @4:10 with the "you're serious right now?" demeanor. Some people just dont get it xD
So many people are unable to tell the difference between breaks and brakes.
They're showing their ignorance over there.
19/3 23. Give 'em a Break !
kzhead.info/sun/Y9Kkk7qyaJ-Xl2g/bejne.html
I still think my favorite was some a-hole brake checked a semi and got rear ended like 3 or 4 times before the truck was able to stop. Then he got out and quote "That was unnecessary!". Yeah, it was, D-bag. 🤣🤣🤣
An entire video where the word "brake" is spelled "break" in almost every clip. That's award-worthy. Remember people, spell check is NOT a substitute for proofreading!
The question I pose to break checkers. "Who appointed you the punisher of slow drivers?"
I didn't see any "break" checking going on here. Nothing broke, so there's nothing the check.
Isn't that a question to be posed to tailgaters? (Or talegaiters, to stick with the "break" theme.)
No way was any of the Cops following the 2 second rule.
2 seconds of distance between cars? Is that an American rule, or your personal preference? The rest of the civilised world have our 3 second rule. Unfortunately, the world is populated by 50 % of sub-average IQ people who will not follow such obvious rules.
That was my impression, too. In some cases, I had the impression that the driver in front wasn't actually "brake checking" but lightly activating the brakes enough for the brake lights to go on and signal "look, you're getting way too close". In some of the other cases ( including the first ones) the following vehicles did nothing to avoid a collision and took it in their stride. I don't know how other jurisdictions deal with that - in my country, a judge would likely say that both parties are at fault and order them to split the bill. In the case of "truckers standing together", a judge would probably hand down a fine to the overtaking lorry - but his colleague dealing with the ensuing crash would rate the final "accident" an intentional ramming and find the valiant trucker 100% at fault for hitting the initial culprit.
Tapping the breaks for these idiot cops constantly tailgating is totally appropriate. It's these cops who should be fined 😂
The last clip guy went from super tough to a child instantly....
The police at 2:38 had to change lanes because he was tailgating.
And that’s how they get you
LET ME EXPLAIN THIS SIMPLE THING! The car in front was on the passing lane while not passing anyone! That already could be considered a violation (yes!), but it goes on... when reached by the cop he had space to get out (witch he should by the laws) but didn't (blocking the passing lane), AND break check the police car! The cop did nothing worng, but I guess most people really believe you can stay on the passing lane and block any faster car...."cause I'm doing the limit, I don't need to give way" Most peolpe o the world do the same stupid mistake! Please use the pasing lane to pass, AS IT SHOULD BE, abd then immediately get back to the other lanes. That's the law! No cruising on the passing lane! If a car is tailgating you on the fast lane... is probably your fault!
@@deihorus7927 when I’m in the fast lane I’m usually passing people and if I see someone is tailgating me I just move over and let them pass

3:07 that was actually like a instant justice nightmare xD
The thrill in every moment is palpable! You did a great job curating these enjoyable experiences.
At 5:09 the car filming was approaching the roundabout far too quickly and was in the wrong as much as the Range Rover driver
I figured it was cpmmon knowledge that pretty much all trucks have a dash cam
The self righteousness, aggression and entitlement in today’s traffic, often on both sides of the dashcam, is just ridiculous, and dangerous. Take a deep breath, chill and go on with your day, whether you are in front of or behind the dashcam. (I know, I know, but it is allowed to dream...)
At 5:03 though the white SUV was already on the roundabout and the dashcam driver got annoyed and probably thought he had right of way
Yeah. Sounds like he honked like an idiot as he entered the roundabout. Dude needs to read the road rules. That said brake checking is stupid as a reaction.
Happened to my sister driving alone on the highway at night, a guy on a Suzuki Alto brake checked her out of nowhere, sadly for him my sister had a really slow reaction due to having the music too loud and being distracted(im not saying that was nice tho, she should be more aware), the thing is she was draving my uncle's Ford Ranger Raptor at about 110km/h and the little car was just thrown away like a toy to the side of the road which was on a hill, as she stopped she could see the little car going down the hill and starting to roll and catch fire. For further info, shes ok, the Ford had scratches on the paint and the guy on the Suzuki almost lost his life, hes on a wheelchair for the rest of it tho. As for of insurance and things go, a biker with dash cam behind her sent the video to her, so the Suzuki Driver was proven guilty and had to pay for the paint on the Ford too. So yeah, dont brake check people.
6:14 dude turned into a seal with that laugh haha
In the states you don’t have anything between 2 lanes of traffic, there must be some crazy accidents
A lot of these incidents, especially with the police, are caused by them tailgating in the first place.
Yeah, I was taught in driving school that if someone tailgates you, you need to brake gently so they would increase the distance to you. But really, this has never worked and the only thing it accomplishes is aggravating him, so I'd suggest breathing calmly and just not watchin the mirrors, lol.
Agreed. Brake checking is never good, but tailgating is just as bad, yet in these encounters it's the cops who get to take revenge on the person that they annoyed with their crappy tailgating. I want to see the karma where these idiot driver cops get THEIR just desserts.
@@whatsupbudbud if someone insists on tailgaiting, I will tap the brakes without slowing down, as a warning to back off. If they still don't, I'll slow down in some cases, gently. I drive fast and pass other cars and am in the correct lane, so anyone tailgating me is a jerk trying to intimidate or too stupid to give some space.
I would argue it's mostly caused by trashbags who camp in the passing lane.
Just move over, that's what the cops telling you to do, it's just that you need common sense to understand
The one where they say the guy brake-checked a cop 3 times. That’s obviously stupid, but the officer is also harassing the driver, tailgating him and shining his spotlight while following too close for quite awhile.
True. I'd have just slowed down without the brakes
@@nthgth me too. I used to drive through a tiny town with less than 1k population, but they had a police department with 2 officers. I worked nights so every single night one of them would tailgate me through the entire town. I had to learn to deal with it.
@@RobbieWebster so annoying. You could try downshifting, if you can do it smooth enough not to be obvious (by making the car buck as if you were braking). They might still stop you but with no brake lights in their dash cam they can't prove you braked, and they almost certainly can't prove you downshifted either
Truck driver’s PATIENCE gave out, potentially causing the brake checker to become a PATIENT. Spell check is a really good tool.
Brake checkers requires brain checking.
8:30 only in russia you see brake checkers getting pushed lol
That was a glorious clip. A long time ago there was a video of a Russian bus driver that never braked when the guy in front committed the offense. It was a very entertaining video!
OMFG YES!!! There are so many bad drivers that could benefit from a little push.
it happens here as well, just takes one of us who just don't give two shits and we take the checker for a ride.
4:42 looked like the first brake the guy did was due to road conditions and traffic ahead…likely as a result of not having light on… Just cos you brake on a freeway with a car behind you does NOT automatically define it as brake checking…
I came looking for this comment, in all honesty the guy braked 3 times and only 1 of them seemed close enough to be considered brake checking, the others there was definitely too big of a gap and too short of a brake and was probably due to road conditions, he probably got pulled over for the lights, not the brakes.
I thought the same, he was slowing down with the traffic - you can see him gaining on the vehicle in front of him.
@@rianmacdonald9454 combined with the road conditions being wet…depending on vehicle, the on/off or the brakes could show he was trying to be gentle/pumping the brakes to avoid locking and sliding the wheels
Moc dobře udělal ten traktorista 😉👍👍👍👏👏👏
That last one got me. I saw the same thing on S.B. 205. Guy got all crazy and jumped out of his ranger and thru up his hands. The cop behind me got out and pointed his gun at him and said "Do you want to go to jail!" Dumbshid got back in his truck and kept goin. Even his wife was telling him to stfu, dumbazz
1:30 why did the cop follow here that closely and did not change lanes to the left ?
Not sure of your origin but this footage certainly looks like the UK, which means you always drive on the left most lane unless overtaking a vehicle. Undertaking (passing on the left side) is against the highway code. So the car was blocking the motorway by sitting in the far right lane. The left lanes were empty so there was no need to be there. You see it happen loads, often by foreign licence holders who haven't bothered to familiarise themselves with the UK road laws. Nice to see them get pulled, its infuriating when it happens, made worse by the drivers further ignorance by brake checking the rear car.
@@MrMax4music its a cop he can pass where ever he likes
@@MrMax4music i am from Germany by the way
@@DJJumpdancerGuten tag. Yes and no. He could only undertake if on a response to a call, especially as he is unmarked, but thats not really the point. The point is he was held up by a car that was sitting in the outside lane unnecessarily which contravenes the Uk highway code. It should have been in the left lane. To make it worse he refused to move over for the approaching vehicle, then obviously starts brake checking. He should Los his license for such disregard for other road users.
This is why I dash cam is so good you can easily prove what happened.
Front and rear and never get the model with GPS speed indicator, unless you are perfect, never make mistakes and never speed.
Once got breakchecked by a dude who was following me and treatening me for miles, it was in Belgium/Antwerp. As soon we entered the freeway he passed me and imediately hit the break to let me crash, I swerved to the lane on the left nearly crashing, accelerated and passed him and kept the speedlimit, he passed me again and breaked again, I again passed him on the right and stepped on the gas pedal, went to tankstation, spotted a cop, explained what happened and that I had proof it and he should be driving by within a minute, he did, police went after him, 10 miles futher he was pulled over, I stopped as well and he tried to blame me, I gave the recordings to the cops from start to end and case solved. It was a scary incident as he also looked like a cracked up junk who doesnt values his own life at all, luckily hes pulled off the road.
I'll admit that I've accidentally brake checked a cop. It was completely accidental because he got right up on my bumper (w/o emergency lights on) at 55 mph and I did a double tap on the brake pedal just enough to activate the brake lights. Well, the second tap put my nose down. He was getting ready to pull me over for running a red light (I entered the intersection on a yellow) and for some reason, this department limes to tailgate before initiating a pullover. Oddly enough, he never mentioned the brake check during the entire encounter.
2:45 that cop should lose his licence, too. No safety gap at all.
5:05 Its ironic how he honks at the Rang Rover for not stopping or slowing down for him at the roundabout even though he didn't slow down or check for someone coming from the right either. Both the dashcam driver and the Range Rover driver are idiots.
That first one...bicycle vs bus.....HILARIOUS....kind of stupid to brake check a bus with a bike.....😅
Don't know if I'm the only one who caught it but thanks for being the first video to use that classic laugh from The Money Pit!
i got alot of satisfaction when the lorry driver took that car for a little cruise lol
When I have tailgaters, I am in the right lane (slow lane in the USA) with a passing lane available, I don't brake check since that would escalate. I just go about 1 to 2 mph below the speed limit as if I was stupid. Eventually, the tailgaters will race around me and be on their way, they think I am too stupid to bother "teaching a lesson". When I have a stick shift I just ride the transmission rather than doing the brakes - most people assume I am going faster and slower and not trying to piss them off. They usually get the hint and are much happier passing me and speeding away anyway. When there is no safe place to pass, they are not being dicks, and I am not in a hurry, I will pull over and let them by. I have done that with trucks especially because passing for them is a royal pain. In a couple of minutes I never see these speeders again.
"ride the transmission"? You don't mean slip the clutch do you? Most of us simply take our foot off the gas pedal to slow down.
@@comatoseps1382 When driving a standard (stick shift) and I want to slow down without breaking I take my foot off of the gas pedal. I have always heard of it as "riding the transmission".
@@richardthomas5362 Oh okay, I getcha now. I would understand that term if going downhill, but I know it as "engine braking". Applying the same idea when going level makes a certain kind of sense, but I had never heard it.
@@comatoseps1382I call it 'easing off the gas' and it applies regardless of manual or auto transmission. I think of 'riding the transmission' as being when you downshift as well, amplifying the effect of engine braking.
I really enjoyed this video, loved the laugh to the one guy, hahahahahaha Thanks for video, you've got a new subscriber!!! Keep it up and keep safe and healthy
1:35 cop should write himself a ticket for tailgating
he was just bored.
It is common for cops to do that if you caught their attention and they are trying to check you out. Maybe they are trying to get you to speed so you get a ticket.
That's par for the course in Arizona. Both city and state cops just love to get half a car length off the back bumper at 60+ on the freeway.
Some cops like to tailgate within safety stopping distance...so you have brake check for to back off ...then they ticket u....I won a court case with that exact scenario via my rear cam. !!!
When the driver brake check the cop and his lights came on. The person who edited this video to add that music to it at that very time. I want to say thank you. It was so funny.
funniest one I've seen was a couple brake checked a truck, got out and screamed at him. he wasn't having it so accelerated. the cameraman is pissing himself laughing as the truck goes past with the 4wd with two idiots running after him as he has their car pushing it down the road.
In the U.K. tailgating is considered dangerous, and is an offence. Despite that, many still do it. It appears from some of these clips that tailgating is a problem in the USA as well?
Most definitely. It's a nightmare
Truck driver laughing is hilarious 🤣
Thought there was a Donkey in the passenger seat or something 💀
3:11 was crazy 🤣 im a new cdl A driver & im glad truckers stick together 🤣💯
That's an old clip. If I remember correctly, that's in Russia some years ago. Russia has...very different levels of aggression and crazy driving.
6:18 that laugh lmao
7:02 I totally agree with everything he says.
Thats philippines language
I’ve driven across the country twice. 49 years ago the last time. Kindness and a few scammers.
a bull bar in front helps to push brake checkers down the road or into the ditch....No stopping required!
I'm going full battle bars all the way across the front...
Sweep the trash away
It does not give you the right to tailgate.
@@tomarsandbeyond left lane campers DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to block the left lane.
@@mikefoehr235 I did not say that they did. Stop lying.
"One way ticket to an actual ticket". That´s like the best poetry ever.
These are so funny... I just love how people are so shocked that someone decided to punch their ticket! LOLOLOL
I really hope the truck's patients were ok after the accident.
LOL Spelling is hard
Not to mention it wasn't even a truck but a farm tractor!
@@devilsadvocate2548 Farmer/doctor.
Along with being obnoxious, I think many drivers actually believe that all vehicles are able to stop in the same distance as themselves.
I think many drivers lack functioning brains. It's not they they 'believe', it's that they don't 'think'. They are either scammers looking for a quick buck, or someone got offended and are running on emotion.
Finally!! I love instant karma. As a female truck driver the minute they get out of their car to confront me I would have no problem removing that obstacle!!
At 7:05 the angry man sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger... Aaaa get down aaa😂😂
Brakes. B-R-A-K-E-S. Brakes. I feel like I'm watching the birth of the Idiocracy.
Don't break your brakes 🤠
When braking can break your car.
The cops in 1:08 and 1:17 acted unprofessionally. They were tailgating slow cars that were appropriated in the right land. The police baited them with their actions.
That is in the UK, and that car was in the fast overtaking lane. Here it is illegal to "undertake" and you must move over to the left after passing whatever traffic you are overtaking. The police car was acting correctly towards to illegal driver holding up the traffic.
@@rooramblingon895 there's 2 videos was the second one UK as well?
@@Andrew-nh5zg UK or Australia. At night, how can you tell? At 1:26 you can see the headlights of a car travelling in the opposite direction to the right. If it was U.S. standard they should be to the left.
haha the 2nd clip is great that tractor sustained no damage due to front weights and the car got wreaked
0:24 - "the trucker's brakes or patients" - he was a doctor? 🤣 Also it's not a truck, it's a tractor.
Love it when drivers don't know that there is a cop behind them. Brilliant.
The other side of the story is that tailgaters only get to their destination a quarter of a second faster than someone driving a safe distance from the car in front of them. Granted, in most of the film clips, the person was not being tailgated.
Substitute "stupidity" for "audacity" and I agree completely 👍
I've been thinking recently about live streaming dash cams, and maybe adding steel to the bumpers/fenders. Only for youtube driving obviously. I don't need any of it for regular trips.
Its good to see a cop around when you need one.
I was on a three lane divided highway and in the fast lane when the car in front of me slammed on her brakes. I had a hard time getting stopped but did because i had kept my distance from her. I blasted my horn at her but she ignored me and made a right hand turn from the far left lane to go to the exit she wanted and had missed. I watched her and as soon as she got into the exit lane the red lights came on. An officer had seen the whole thing. I felt like karma was a live and well.
